1
00:00:03,166 --> 00:00:05,266
[Stephanie] Well, you might
have to push me up the hill.
2
00:00:06,567 --> 00:00:08,000
[chuckles]
3
00:00:08,100 --> 00:00:09,533
It's the part I don't like.
4
00:00:16,667 --> 00:00:19,900
[woman] Somewhere
in me is this little glimmer
of hope.
5
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,700
I just wanna be
a normal person.
6
00:00:22,767 --> 00:00:24,667
[panting]
7
00:00:33,567 --> 00:00:36,767
You can't do it,
and then I just get mad.
8
00:00:36,767 --> 00:00:38,300
[woman] If I don't make
a change now,
9
00:00:38,367 --> 00:00:40,100
I'm scared
it's gonna be too late.
10
00:00:44,100 --> 00:00:45,867
[groaning]
11
00:00:45,967 --> 00:00:47,200
It hurts.
12
00:00:47,266 --> 00:00:49,667
[woman] I refuse
to stop fighting.
13
00:00:49,667 --> 00:00:52,166
I have to do this
for my children.
14
00:00:52,166 --> 00:00:53,400
Oh.
15
00:00:57,266 --> 00:01:00,000
This is a recipe
for a totally failure
in their life
16
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:01,166
This is a recipe
for a totally failure
in their life
17
00:01:01,166 --> 00:01:04,767
and every aspect of the future
of everybody.
18
00:01:39,100 --> 00:01:41,600
My biggest fear is going
to sleep at night
19
00:01:41,667 --> 00:01:43,667
and not waking up
in the morning.
20
00:01:45,567 --> 00:01:50,200
When I lay down, my weight
puts pressure on my chest,
21
00:01:50,266 --> 00:01:52,100
and on my lungs.
22
00:01:52,166 --> 00:01:54,166
So it is difficult
to breathe.
23
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,867
So I'm very scared
to go to bed at night,
24
00:01:59,967 --> 00:02:00,000
especially knowing
my kids are right there.
25
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,367
especially knowing
my kids are right there.
26
00:02:03,467 --> 00:02:06,800
I don't want them to wake up
and me not wake up.
27
00:02:08,967 --> 00:02:10,100
[sighs]
28
00:02:22,767 --> 00:02:25,600
[Stephanie speaking]
29
00:02:30,567 --> 00:02:32,467
Good morning.
30
00:02:36,367 --> 00:02:38,467
I live with just my kids.
31
00:02:40,467 --> 00:02:43,867
But my mom and stepdad come
over just about every day
32
00:02:43,967 --> 00:02:46,700
to help me do
what I need to do.
33
00:02:46,767 --> 00:02:49,000
-Good morning.
-Good morning.
34
00:02:49,066 --> 00:02:51,367
-You ready?
-[Stephanie speaking]
35
00:02:51,367 --> 00:02:53,867
Yeah, I got your stuff.
Hang on for me.
36
00:02:56,667 --> 00:02:58,867
Stephanie has to have
assistance.
37
00:02:58,967 --> 00:03:00,000
-[grunts]
-Got it?
38
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:00,200
-[grunts]
-Got it?
39
00:03:00,266 --> 00:03:01,867
-Yeah.
-Stand there for a second...
40
00:03:01,967 --> 00:03:03,667
-Yeah.
-...if you get dizzy.
41
00:03:05,166 --> 00:03:09,367
Not that long ago,
a mass developed
between her legs,
42
00:03:09,467 --> 00:03:11,567
and it's hard for her
to walk now.
43
00:03:11,567 --> 00:03:12,767
It's hard for her sleep.
44
00:03:12,867 --> 00:03:14,967
Got it?
45
00:03:14,967 --> 00:03:16,567
I worry all the time
46
00:03:16,667 --> 00:03:18,867
that she's not going
to wake up
47
00:03:18,967 --> 00:03:21,967
and I'm coming
and find her not alive.
48
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,000
There's so much danger
49
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:30,100
There's so much danger
50
00:03:30,166 --> 00:03:32,900
with the way that her weight
is right now.
51
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:34,500
You got it?
52
00:03:39,166 --> 00:03:41,700
Her weight affects my life
53
00:03:41,767 --> 00:03:45,066
'cause I don't wanna do
anything without her.
54
00:03:46,266 --> 00:03:47,800
So I don't.
55
00:03:49,767 --> 00:03:52,367
I've put my life on hold.
56
00:03:52,367 --> 00:03:53,867
You ready?
57
00:03:53,867 --> 00:03:58,767
So she doesn't feel bad
if I go do something
and she can't
58
00:03:58,767 --> 00:04:00,000
because I want her to know
that I'm here for her
59
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:00,867
because I want her to know
that I'm here for her
60
00:04:00,867 --> 00:04:03,600
and I'll sit and wait
as long as I can
61
00:04:03,667 --> 00:04:05,567
until she can do things again.
62
00:04:08,300 --> 00:04:09,867
-I got it.
-[Diana speaking]
63
00:04:13,266 --> 00:04:14,567
Got it.
64
00:04:16,667 --> 00:04:19,567
And she has to have
somebody help her wash.
65
00:04:22,266 --> 00:04:24,100
-[Diana] Keep breathing.
-Hang on. It hurts.
66
00:04:24,166 --> 00:04:25,867
[Diana] I know.
Just keep breathing.
67
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:31,567
[Stephanie] Hell.
68
00:04:32,667 --> 00:04:33,767
I know.
69
00:04:35,867 --> 00:04:39,100
But it's gotta be quick
'cause she has a hard time
70
00:04:39,166 --> 00:04:40,767
sitting there too long
to do it.
71
00:04:40,867 --> 00:04:42,266
[Diana speaking]
72
00:04:43,266 --> 00:04:44,300
[Stephanie speaking]
73
00:04:44,367 --> 00:04:45,767
Yep. Yep.
74
00:04:49,166 --> 00:04:50,367
[Diana speaking]
75
00:04:52,367 --> 00:04:53,567
Okay.
76
00:05:02,667 --> 00:05:06,367
After I shower, my knees
are grinding like rocks.
77
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:09,266
It hurts a lot.
78
00:05:11,100 --> 00:05:12,367
Okay.
79
00:05:12,367 --> 00:05:15,400
When they ask you to scale
one to 10, I'm like a 20.
80
00:05:16,567 --> 00:05:17,567
[Stephanie speaking]
81
00:05:17,667 --> 00:05:19,100
I know you do.
82
00:05:20,300 --> 00:05:22,166
Okay. Let me pull the back.
83
00:05:22,166 --> 00:05:24,000
I can't get dressed most
of the time on my own.
84
00:05:24,100 --> 00:05:27,367
Sometimes I need help
with my pant legs.
85
00:05:27,367 --> 00:05:28,500
[Diana] All right.
86
00:05:28,567 --> 00:05:30,000
-Help me doing the legs.
-I know.
87
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:30,166
-Help me doing the legs.
-I know.
88
00:05:30,166 --> 00:05:31,367
Come on.
89
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,300
Let me pull up the side.
90
00:05:35,367 --> 00:05:36,567
Here.
Let me recheck.
91
00:05:36,567 --> 00:05:38,166
Okay.
92
00:05:38,166 --> 00:05:40,000
Okay.
93
00:05:40,066 --> 00:05:41,867
All right.
94
00:05:41,967 --> 00:05:43,000
-Okay.
-There you go.
95
00:05:44,467 --> 00:05:46,567
Yeah.
Sit down for a second.
96
00:05:46,667 --> 00:05:48,467
I catch my breath.
97
00:05:48,567 --> 00:05:51,166
I let my body feel
a little better.
98
00:05:51,266 --> 00:05:52,567
And then I get up.
99
00:05:52,567 --> 00:05:54,066
-[Diana] Feel better?
-Yeah.
100
00:05:54,066 --> 00:05:55,667
-Okay.
-One, two, three.
101
00:05:56,967 --> 00:05:59,166
[grunts]
102
00:05:59,266 --> 00:06:00,000
And after that,
I'm normally in my living room
all day long.
103
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,567
And after that,
I'm normally in my living room
all day long.
104
00:06:06,567 --> 00:06:07,667
Got it?
105
00:06:07,667 --> 00:06:09,367
And I'll sit in the chair.
106
00:06:09,467 --> 00:06:10,767
-[Diana speaking]
-[Stephanie speaking]
107
00:06:10,767 --> 00:06:13,367
And I'm usually here alone
most of the day.
108
00:06:14,667 --> 00:06:16,000
It's... It's lonely.
109
00:06:17,300 --> 00:06:18,400
Okay.
110
00:06:18,467 --> 00:06:19,467
I'm good.
111
00:06:19,567 --> 00:06:21,767
That's why I love
eating with my family.
112
00:06:21,767 --> 00:06:24,166
It makes me feel, you know,
a part of something.
113
00:06:26,467 --> 00:06:28,467
Not... Not alone.
114
00:06:28,567 --> 00:06:29,900
How's it going, Sean?
115
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,100
[Sean] It's going good.
116
00:06:31,166 --> 00:06:33,367
Sausages are cooking.
Haggis cooking.
117
00:06:33,467 --> 00:06:36,066
My breakfast, most of the time
my son cooks for me.
118
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,567
And as they're getting ready
for school, we watch cartoons.
119
00:06:40,567 --> 00:06:42,500
This smell is making me
more hungry.
120
00:06:47,867 --> 00:06:50,300
Yeah. I don't know
how much syrup
you want on there.
121
00:06:50,367 --> 00:06:52,467
[Stephanie] But I'm constantly
thinking about food.
122
00:06:52,467 --> 00:06:53,567
There you go.
123
00:06:53,667 --> 00:06:55,166
I love just
how delicious it tastes,
124
00:06:55,166 --> 00:06:57,300
how happy it makes me feel,
125
00:06:57,367 --> 00:07:00,000
how like it melts away
my... my thoughts.
126
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:00,767
how like it melts away
my... my thoughts.
127
00:07:01,767 --> 00:07:03,200
It brings me to life
when I eat.
128
00:07:04,900 --> 00:07:09,867
It makes me forget about
the bad parts at that moment,
129
00:07:09,967 --> 00:07:11,300
just for that little bit
of time.
130
00:07:18,567 --> 00:07:21,900
And I did the same for
when I was younger as well.
131
00:07:29,266 --> 00:07:30,000
My mom and dad
were very young parents
132
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,367
My mom and dad
were very young parents
133
00:07:31,467 --> 00:07:33,867
and they both had to work
odd jobs,
134
00:07:33,967 --> 00:07:37,667
so I was left to myself a lot.
135
00:07:37,667 --> 00:07:40,967
But one of the ways
I would get to spend time
with my dad
136
00:07:40,967 --> 00:07:43,967
is he would take me
to work and driving
his ice cream truck.
137
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,300
I'd sit in the truck
and eat the ice creams
138
00:07:47,367 --> 00:07:49,066
as he was selling them
to everybody.
139
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,100
I did feel special.
140
00:07:52,767 --> 00:07:54,800
I didn't feel alone
at that time.
141
00:07:57,500 --> 00:08:00,000
But my life took a turn
for the worst
when my parents split up.
142
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,266
But my life took a turn
for the worst
when my parents split up.
143
00:08:05,900 --> 00:08:07,867
Stephanie's dad
was a truck driver,
144
00:08:07,967 --> 00:08:10,166
so he was on the road a lot.
145
00:08:10,266 --> 00:08:14,467
Him and I had a fallout
and he left me with the kids.
146
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,667
Stephanie has three brothers,
147
00:08:17,767 --> 00:08:19,967
and so I met somebody
148
00:08:19,967 --> 00:08:22,467
and I moved in
with this guy...
149
00:08:23,500 --> 00:08:27,100
found out he was an alcoholic
that liked to abuse.
150
00:08:27,166 --> 00:08:29,000
I had no support whatsoever.
151
00:08:29,100 --> 00:08:30,000
And then so I called
my husband, Stephanie's dad,
I said I needed help.
152
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,867
And then so I called
my husband, Stephanie's dad,
I said I needed help.
153
00:08:33,867 --> 00:08:36,166
And he said,
"If you can get out of there,
154
00:08:36,266 --> 00:08:39,166
and get back to California,
I'll help you.
155
00:08:39,266 --> 00:08:41,500
You know, we can work
on our relationship."
156
00:08:41,567 --> 00:08:44,100
I said, "Okay, all right.
Thank you.
157
00:08:44,166 --> 00:08:45,767
And everything
was gonna be okay.
158
00:08:45,867 --> 00:08:48,600
And we would get back together
when we got there."
159
00:08:48,667 --> 00:08:51,367
So I remember
we had just got away
160
00:08:51,467 --> 00:08:53,567
and we made it
to California.
161
00:08:53,667 --> 00:08:55,700
But the time I made it
to California,
162
00:08:55,767 --> 00:08:58,567
and within the next day
or two,
163
00:08:58,567 --> 00:09:00,000
we got the call
that he was gone.
164
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,767
we got the call
that he was gone.
165
00:09:01,867 --> 00:09:03,100
Her dad passed away.
166
00:09:04,467 --> 00:09:06,166
He was in an accident.
167
00:09:06,166 --> 00:09:08,400
Stephanie was devastated.
168
00:09:08,467 --> 00:09:10,100
It was a nightmare.
169
00:09:10,166 --> 00:09:12,400
We were homeless.
We lived out of our car.
170
00:09:13,567 --> 00:09:16,100
[Stephanie] And then
my mom called CPS.
171
00:09:16,166 --> 00:09:18,600
[Diana] Told the CPS people
I wasn't taking care of them.
172
00:09:20,367 --> 00:09:22,967
And the day I found out
he passed away,
173
00:09:22,967 --> 00:09:25,300
they took me
to foster care
174
00:09:25,367 --> 00:09:28,200
'cause my mom didn't have
a proper place for us to live.
175
00:09:29,467 --> 00:09:30,000
And it was...
It was really hard.
176
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,266
And it was...
It was really hard.
177
00:09:31,367 --> 00:09:33,266
I didn't get to cry.
178
00:09:33,266 --> 00:09:37,900
I get told he died,
and then I get taken away
from my mom.
179
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,667
It's like I lost two parents
the same day.
180
00:09:40,667 --> 00:09:42,467
I didn't get to talk about it.
181
00:09:42,467 --> 00:09:45,900
I just...
I just had to be strong
for my brothers
182
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,300
and put my emotions away.
183
00:09:48,367 --> 00:09:53,166
So I ate
whatever I could
to suppress them.
184
00:09:54,266 --> 00:09:55,767
Something to make me happy.
185
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,667
I was in foster care
for about four years.
186
00:10:04,667 --> 00:10:07,567
In the beginning
I did not know
where my kids were.
187
00:10:07,667 --> 00:10:09,500
And then after a while,
you know,
188
00:10:09,567 --> 00:10:13,100
I would get to have days
without any monitoring.
189
00:10:14,100 --> 00:10:16,266
And I was staying
in hotels at that time.
190
00:10:17,667 --> 00:10:19,100
And then I met Martin.
191
00:10:20,266 --> 00:10:21,500
He was my savior.
192
00:10:22,867 --> 00:10:25,266
Stephanie was 16
when I met her mom.
193
00:10:27,367 --> 00:10:28,767
She was pretty lonely.
194
00:10:28,867 --> 00:10:30,000
She was basically by herself
a lot of the time.
195
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,667
She was basically by herself
a lot of the time.
196
00:10:32,667 --> 00:10:35,166
She bounce around
from house to house.
197
00:10:35,166 --> 00:10:36,400
I mean, there
was just struggling.
198
00:10:36,467 --> 00:10:38,900
They were just having
a horrible time.
199
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,900
When I came into their life,
I just tried to fix it all.
200
00:10:44,367 --> 00:10:46,700
I was able to fix some of it.
201
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,066
And it's just been
a hard struggle since.
202
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,567
I felt really sad and alone
at that time.
203
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,867
Like I didn't have anybody
to talk to about it all.
204
00:11:05,266 --> 00:11:08,367
And I didn't know
how to express myself
to people.
205
00:11:08,467 --> 00:11:10,100
I didn't want that burden
on everybody.
206
00:11:11,367 --> 00:11:13,367
So, yeah, it was...
it was... it was lonely.
207
00:11:13,367 --> 00:11:14,800
It was... it was sad.
208
00:11:16,567 --> 00:11:20,000
Those are the feelings
that food takes away.
209
00:11:21,700 --> 00:11:24,100
Being alone all the time,
being sad,
210
00:11:24,166 --> 00:11:27,000
those were the ones
that stick out the most.
211
00:11:27,066 --> 00:11:30,000
And still to this day,
I get triggered
by feeling lonely.
212
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,367
And still to this day,
I get triggered
by feeling lonely.
213
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,367
That's a lot of my struggle.
214
00:11:35,367 --> 00:11:37,266
I didn't have any friends,
215
00:11:37,266 --> 00:11:39,567
but I was determined
to finish my education.
216
00:11:39,667 --> 00:11:43,500
And I was actually
the first one in my family
to do the graduation walk.
217
00:11:45,100 --> 00:11:48,800
And then after high school
I was about 250.
218
00:11:48,867 --> 00:11:51,567
And then I had my son,
my first son.
219
00:11:51,567 --> 00:11:54,800
And after him it just went up.
220
00:11:56,667 --> 00:12:00,000
Each pregnancy,
the weight would come on,
221
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:00,700
Each pregnancy,
the weight would come on,
222
00:12:00,767 --> 00:12:05,066
you know, as she was pregnant
and then it didn't go away.
223
00:12:05,066 --> 00:12:09,467
And his dad was just a person
that I met one night,
224
00:12:09,467 --> 00:12:12,467
and we had
a one night together.
225
00:12:12,467 --> 00:12:14,767
I didn't hear from him
after that.
226
00:12:14,867 --> 00:12:16,367
As soon as I found out
I was pregnant,
227
00:12:17,300 --> 00:12:18,867
I called my mom
228
00:12:18,967 --> 00:12:21,767
and she sent my stepdad
to come pick me up.
229
00:12:21,767 --> 00:12:24,667
And that's when I started
to live with them
for a little while.
230
00:12:27,166 --> 00:12:30,000
And then I applied
for housing,
231
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,967
And then I applied
for housing,
232
00:12:32,967 --> 00:12:35,867
ended up getting
where I am now.
233
00:12:38,667 --> 00:12:43,200
And now I have three kids,
each with different dads.
234
00:12:46,667 --> 00:12:49,000
Only constant in my life
was food.
235
00:12:50,166 --> 00:12:52,800
Food is just there
when I need it
236
00:12:52,867 --> 00:12:56,300
and I haven't get
to this day found
237
00:12:56,367 --> 00:12:58,166
to go to person
that does that.
238
00:12:58,166 --> 00:13:00,000
-[Shawn] You finished?
-Yeah.
239
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:00,367
-[Shawn] You finished?
-Yeah.
240
00:13:00,467 --> 00:13:02,800
There's no other relationship
like that.
241
00:13:04,867 --> 00:13:06,300
In my early thirties,
242
00:13:06,367 --> 00:13:09,166
my weight was about
420 pounds
243
00:13:09,166 --> 00:13:13,567
and now I'm 36 and I'm now...
I'm roughly 600 pounds.
244
00:13:13,567 --> 00:13:15,800
Due to a car accident I had,
245
00:13:15,867 --> 00:13:17,967
and I was bedridden
for a while.
246
00:13:19,767 --> 00:13:22,166
Will you help me
carry my purse?
247
00:13:22,266 --> 00:13:23,567
[Diana] Yeah, I'll carry it.
248
00:13:28,867 --> 00:13:29,967
-Got it?
-Yeah.
249
00:13:29,967 --> 00:13:30,000
When I even think about
going out in public,
250
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,200
When I even think about
going out in public,
251
00:13:32,266 --> 00:13:33,467
I start to panic.
252
00:13:33,567 --> 00:13:35,266
'Cause I know...
253
00:13:35,367 --> 00:13:36,700
I know people
will stare at me.
254
00:13:38,166 --> 00:13:39,400
[Diana] You ready
for the fun part?
255
00:13:47,166 --> 00:13:48,266
Got it?
256
00:13:48,367 --> 00:13:49,567
[Stephanie] Yeah.
257
00:13:53,266 --> 00:13:55,300
I know they're looking at me.
258
00:13:55,367 --> 00:13:58,166
That's why I try
not to go anywhere.
259
00:14:04,667 --> 00:14:06,367
I'll go in and get the cart
for you.
260
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:12,400
Is that close enough?
261
00:14:12,467 --> 00:14:13,600
Yeah.
262
00:14:13,667 --> 00:14:15,567
I put the arms up for you.
263
00:14:15,667 --> 00:14:17,500
[Stephanie] You know,
the seat all the way back?
264
00:14:17,567 --> 00:14:18,700
Yeah.
265
00:14:19,500 --> 00:14:20,734
Okay.
266
00:14:20,767 --> 00:14:23,367
Yeah. You might have
to push me,
even if it's wheels.
267
00:14:23,367 --> 00:14:24,600
I know.
268
00:14:30,467 --> 00:14:31,867
I have 'em.
269
00:14:31,867 --> 00:14:33,166
[car door slams]
270
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,266
I don't know,
if it's gonna go uphill.
271
00:14:38,367 --> 00:14:40,200
[Diana] Huh.
I'll grab the basket.
272
00:14:40,266 --> 00:14:42,867
[Stephanie] Well, you might
have to push me up the hill.
273
00:14:44,266 --> 00:14:45,700
[chuckles]
274
00:14:45,767 --> 00:14:47,367
It's the part I don't like.
275
00:14:47,367 --> 00:14:49,500
My life is completely
out of control.
276
00:14:49,567 --> 00:14:52,100
-[Diana] I forgot.
It's hard on the hill.
-Yes.
277
00:14:52,166 --> 00:14:54,400
-This is embarrassing.
-[laughs]
278
00:14:54,467 --> 00:14:56,567
This is why I don't come.
279
00:14:56,567 --> 00:14:58,000
-You ready?
-[Stephanie] Ready.
280
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:00,000
The front wheels
aren't all the way down.
281
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:01,000
The front wheels
aren't all the way down.
282
00:15:01,066 --> 00:15:03,100
That's why it wasn't going.
283
00:15:03,166 --> 00:15:05,100
[Stephanie] We go
to the bakery first.
284
00:15:05,166 --> 00:15:07,000
[Diana] Okay.
285
00:15:07,066 --> 00:15:08,600
[Stephanie] I'm gonna look
at the cakes.
286
00:15:09,867 --> 00:15:11,000
I have 'em.
287
00:15:13,867 --> 00:15:15,000
Okay.
288
00:15:15,066 --> 00:15:18,000
When you feel like somebody
is looking at you,
289
00:15:18,100 --> 00:15:19,367
you know, you feel it.
290
00:15:20,667 --> 00:15:23,767
It's a constant in my life
to get stared at.
291
00:15:26,567 --> 00:15:27,900
And most of the time
I'm right.
292
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,900
I look over
and somebody's staring at me.
293
00:15:31,567 --> 00:15:35,867
This makes me feel little
like they're better than me.
294
00:15:35,867 --> 00:15:38,100
Okay. Anything else
if I can reach?
295
00:15:38,166 --> 00:15:40,166
Right there, the fudge.
296
00:15:40,266 --> 00:15:41,367
-This?
-Yes.
297
00:15:41,367 --> 00:15:43,400
Okay.
298
00:15:43,467 --> 00:15:46,800
When I feel that
I don't wanna be there
no more.
299
00:15:46,867 --> 00:15:50,166
I wanna go somewhere
to where I know nobody's at
300
00:15:50,166 --> 00:15:52,500
and eat stuff I shouldn't eat.
301
00:15:52,567 --> 00:15:53,967
Ice cream is my favorite.
302
00:15:53,967 --> 00:15:57,266
[Diana] All right.
And then pizza over there.
303
00:15:57,367 --> 00:15:58,567
[Stephanie] Oh, yeah.
And that's it.
304
00:16:03,900 --> 00:16:05,100
Want your dip?
305
00:16:07,066 --> 00:16:08,400
-That's all you want?
-[Stephanie] Yeah.
306
00:16:08,467 --> 00:16:10,166
-You sure?
-Yep.
307
00:16:10,166 --> 00:16:11,400
[Diana] Okay.
308
00:16:18,467 --> 00:16:19,767
[Stephanie]
Oh, am I gonna fit?
309
00:16:19,767 --> 00:16:21,367
[indistinct chatter]
310
00:16:23,367 --> 00:16:25,200
-[Diana] You okay?
-[Stephanie] Yeah.
311
00:16:25,266 --> 00:16:26,400
[Diana] The legs starting
to hurt?
312
00:16:26,467 --> 00:16:27,867
[Stephanie] Yeah.
313
00:16:27,867 --> 00:16:29,166
[Diana] Almost done.
314
00:16:31,700 --> 00:16:33,867
Are we gonna make it
all the way through?
315
00:16:33,867 --> 00:16:35,867
We're gonna pray.
316
00:16:35,867 --> 00:16:38,166
[Diana] You might to back up
then you go around.
317
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,467
[Stephanie] Yep. No.
I'm gonna back up.
318
00:16:43,567 --> 00:16:47,000
-[Diana] It's... You're stuck.
You can't get through.
-My legs.
319
00:16:47,100 --> 00:16:48,767
All right,
go around over there
320
00:16:48,767 --> 00:16:50,200
and I'll be right here, okay?
321
00:16:50,266 --> 00:16:51,467
Okay.
322
00:16:57,567 --> 00:16:58,867
[indistinct chatter]
323
00:17:00,667 --> 00:17:02,100
All right.
Put these in your basket,
324
00:17:02,166 --> 00:17:03,867
then I don't have
to take several.
325
00:17:12,367 --> 00:17:17,400
It scares me daily
that her value of life
is going away.
326
00:17:19,066 --> 00:17:21,100
Her situation's got
to the point
327
00:17:21,166 --> 00:17:24,767
where I think
it's becoming deadly.
328
00:17:24,767 --> 00:17:28,467
I'm having a really
hard time with it
329
00:17:28,567 --> 00:17:30,000
'cause she's my best friend.
330
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:30,300
'cause she's my best friend.
331
00:17:30,367 --> 00:17:31,700
Come on.
332
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:34,667
[Stephanie grunting]
My leg is stuck.
333
00:17:34,667 --> 00:17:35,967
-Got it?
-I got the bottom stuck.
334
00:17:35,967 --> 00:17:37,767
-Oh, is it?
-[Stephanie] Yeah.
335
00:17:37,867 --> 00:17:39,166
-Did you move it?
-[Stephanie] Yeah.
336
00:17:43,667 --> 00:17:44,867
Take your time.
337
00:17:47,066 --> 00:17:48,300
Don't fall.
338
00:17:50,667 --> 00:17:52,166
[Stephanie]
Oh, it's stuck again.
339
00:17:57,700 --> 00:17:58,800
[car door slams]
340
00:17:58,867 --> 00:17:59,967
[Diana] You all right?
341
00:18:00,100 --> 00:18:01,367
Tired and in pain.
342
00:18:02,367 --> 00:18:03,600
That was a lot for you, huh?
343
00:18:03,667 --> 00:18:04,767
Yeah, it was.
344
00:18:04,867 --> 00:18:07,066
I'm tired.
[laughs]
345
00:18:07,066 --> 00:18:08,367
Yeah.
346
00:18:10,266 --> 00:18:12,600
[Diana speaking]
347
00:18:23,266 --> 00:18:24,767
[Diana] There's your pizza.
348
00:18:26,066 --> 00:18:28,367
And my life is completely
out of control.
349
00:18:30,266 --> 00:18:31,667
But I know I need
to lose the weight
350
00:18:31,667 --> 00:18:34,900
so I can live longer,
be healthy.
351
00:18:37,100 --> 00:18:39,266
I'm killing myself
at this point.
352
00:18:39,367 --> 00:18:41,166
I see death.
353
00:18:41,166 --> 00:18:43,000
That's how I feel it.
354
00:18:43,100 --> 00:18:46,266
But thinking about dying
makes me,
355
00:18:46,367 --> 00:18:49,667
wanna change in my life,
makes me, wanna get better.
356
00:18:51,467 --> 00:18:54,066
My kids really need me.
357
00:18:55,700 --> 00:18:57,266
I'm trying to get better
for them.
358
00:18:58,367 --> 00:19:00,000
I don't want them to go
without me.
359
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:00,967
I don't want them to go
without me.
360
00:19:02,266 --> 00:19:04,900
I don't wanna die.
I'm not ready.
361
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,600
But I can't do it on my own.
362
00:19:07,667 --> 00:19:09,066
Here you go, mom.
363
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:13,467
-Thank you.
-Yep.
364
00:19:18,467 --> 00:19:19,867
I need help.
365
00:19:36,467 --> 00:19:38,767
[Diana] All right, Stephanie,
you know what you want?
366
00:19:38,867 --> 00:19:40,967
-[Stephanie] Just this--
-All the snacks?
367
00:19:40,967 --> 00:19:42,667
[Stephanie] Yeah, the cupcakes
and the chips.
368
00:19:42,667 --> 00:19:44,867
-Okay.
-[Stephanie] And soda.
369
00:19:44,867 --> 00:19:47,567
-Okay. I got your root beer
for you today.
-Okay.
370
00:19:47,567 --> 00:19:49,467
Today I'm going
to see Dr. Now,
371
00:19:49,567 --> 00:19:50,867
who's a weight loss surgeon,
372
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,066
who I'm hoping can help me
lose some weight.
373
00:19:55,567 --> 00:19:55,831
The only thing is,
is he's in Texas.
374
00:19:55,831 --> 00:19:57,600
The only thing is,
is he's in Texas.
375
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:00,667
And even
for a regular sized person,
376
00:20:00,767 --> 00:20:03,367
that's going to be about
a three day drive.
377
00:20:03,367 --> 00:20:05,467
But for me, it's going
to take longer
378
00:20:05,467 --> 00:20:07,767
because I can't stay
stuck in the car
379
00:20:07,867 --> 00:20:10,266
for more than
two or three hours at a time.
380
00:20:10,367 --> 00:20:13,467
So we're going
to have to stop a lot.
381
00:20:13,567 --> 00:20:15,467
All right.
I think that's all your stuff.
382
00:20:15,467 --> 00:20:18,567
-[Stephanie] Okay.
-[Diana] Your generals.
383
00:20:18,567 --> 00:20:20,367
Yeah, that's fine.
384
00:20:20,467 --> 00:20:22,867
There you go.
I got two bags for you.
385
00:20:22,867 --> 00:20:23,967
Hold.
386
00:20:23,967 --> 00:20:25,831
I'm worried about
you swelling.
387
00:20:25,831 --> 00:20:26,200
I'm worried about
you swelling.
388
00:20:26,266 --> 00:20:28,567
I'm worried about
your comfortness
389
00:20:28,567 --> 00:20:30,867
and being away for so long.
390
00:20:30,967 --> 00:20:32,367
It's gonna be hard.
391
00:20:32,467 --> 00:20:33,700
-You look scared.
-I am.
392
00:20:33,767 --> 00:20:35,000
Just a little bit.
393
00:20:35,100 --> 00:20:36,300
[Diana] It's all for the best.
394
00:20:36,367 --> 00:20:38,066
Be the big boy.
395
00:20:38,066 --> 00:20:39,667
[Stephanie] I'm afraid
to leave you guys, huh?
396
00:20:39,767 --> 00:20:42,100
-[Charlee] Yeah?
-Yeah.
397
00:20:42,166 --> 00:20:44,467
And you guys are gonna be okay
while I'm gone?
398
00:20:44,467 --> 00:20:45,700
Yeah.
399
00:20:45,767 --> 00:20:47,767
I just don't want you
leaving for so long.
400
00:20:47,867 --> 00:20:49,667
I'm scared, but I'm looking
forward to it.
401
00:20:49,667 --> 00:20:53,467
I know it'll... it'll be
better for me in the end.
402
00:20:53,467 --> 00:20:55,831
You'll have to call me
every minute, all the way.
403
00:20:55,831 --> 00:20:57,066
You'll have to call me
every minute, all the way.
404
00:20:57,066 --> 00:20:58,967
I don't know about that one,
but I will.
405
00:20:58,967 --> 00:21:00,200
I will call you all the time.
406
00:21:01,367 --> 00:21:03,767
My mom's going to watch
the kids while we're gone
407
00:21:03,767 --> 00:21:06,266
and my stepdad
is doing the driving,
408
00:21:06,266 --> 00:21:08,000
and I'm really grateful
for that.
409
00:21:10,500 --> 00:21:12,367
[door creaking]
410
00:21:12,367 --> 00:21:13,867
All right, Stephanie,
you ready to go?
411
00:21:13,867 --> 00:21:15,266
Yes, I'm ready to go.
412
00:21:15,266 --> 00:21:16,667
[Martin] Come on,
let's do this.
413
00:21:18,467 --> 00:21:19,867
I've just that and my pillows.
414
00:21:21,166 --> 00:21:24,066
My appointment with Dr. Now
is in seven days,
415
00:21:24,066 --> 00:21:25,831
so that should give us
enough time to get there,
416
00:21:25,831 --> 00:21:26,266
so that should give us
enough time to get there,
417
00:21:26,367 --> 00:21:29,467
even if we go twice
as slow as a normal person.
418
00:21:32,467 --> 00:21:33,867
But I'm scared
'cause I don't know
419
00:21:33,967 --> 00:21:36,867
if my body can handle going
on the road for a full week.
420
00:21:39,967 --> 00:21:41,400
[Martin] You sitting on this?
421
00:21:41,467 --> 00:21:42,800
[Stephanie] No, not...
not yet.
422
00:21:51,667 --> 00:21:53,467
Okay.
423
00:21:53,467 --> 00:21:54,800
Here we go.
424
00:21:56,166 --> 00:21:57,367
[grunts]
425
00:22:04,166 --> 00:22:05,500
Oh.
426
00:22:08,867 --> 00:22:10,867
-You're all in?
-[Stephanie] Okay. Yeah.
427
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,166
I don't wanna do this,
but I know I have to.
428
00:22:20,166 --> 00:22:22,767
I just hope I can do it,
429
00:22:22,867 --> 00:22:24,400
because if I never get
to Houston,
430
00:22:24,467 --> 00:22:25,831
I'll never get the help
I need.
431
00:22:25,831 --> 00:22:25,867
I'll never get the help
I need.
432
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,967
You ready for this long drive?
433
00:22:28,967 --> 00:22:31,500
[Martin] Not really.
But we gotta do it.
434
00:22:44,667 --> 00:22:47,100
[Stephanie] Can we stop
and get something to eat?
435
00:22:47,166 --> 00:22:48,266
[Martin] Yes.
436
00:22:57,300 --> 00:22:59,367
[Stephanie] What to get?
What to get?
437
00:22:59,467 --> 00:23:01,000
[man] Well, what can I
do for you?
438
00:23:01,100 --> 00:23:03,867
All right. Can I get
the number seven large
439
00:23:03,867 --> 00:23:09,166
with curly fries,
the sour dough, grilled
chicken club sandwich
440
00:23:09,166 --> 00:23:11,667
and an order
of the three egg rolls?
441
00:23:11,667 --> 00:23:12,700
[man] Got it.
442
00:23:12,767 --> 00:23:16,367
And can I get two
of your overload cakes?
443
00:23:16,467 --> 00:23:18,000
[man] All right. Let's go.
444
00:23:18,066 --> 00:23:19,567
-[Martin] Thank you.
-[Stephanie] That's it.
445
00:23:19,567 --> 00:23:20,667
[Martin] No, that'll be all.
446
00:23:20,667 --> 00:23:22,667
[man] All right. $45.87.
Thank you.
447
00:23:22,667 --> 00:23:23,900
[Martin] Thank you.
448
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:25,831
-[woman] Here you go.
-[Martin] Is that all of it?
449
00:23:25,831 --> 00:23:26,867
-[woman] Here you go.
-[Martin] Is that all of it?
450
00:23:26,967 --> 00:23:28,800
-[woman] Yep.
-[Martin] All right.
Thank you.
451
00:23:42,900 --> 00:23:44,166
Delicious.
452
00:23:50,567 --> 00:23:54,166
We're going to stop a lot
to get food, to comfort food,
453
00:23:54,266 --> 00:23:55,467
just to get through the trip.
454
00:23:55,467 --> 00:23:55,831
It's the only way I can try
to make it bearable.
455
00:23:55,831 --> 00:23:57,400
It's the only way I can try
to make it bearable.
456
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:21,367
[Martin] You're gonna
guide me to Boise?
457
00:24:21,467 --> 00:24:22,467
It stopped.
458
00:24:22,567 --> 00:24:24,567
Doing nothing for me.
459
00:24:24,567 --> 00:24:25,831
Yeah, If it doesn't work,
you gotta reboot it.
460
00:24:25,831 --> 00:24:26,967
Yeah, If it doesn't work,
you gotta reboot it.
461
00:24:26,967 --> 00:24:29,000
Just kind of what we're doing
with you right now.
462
00:24:30,266 --> 00:24:32,266
-Really? Did you just--
-Yeah, I just went there.
463
00:24:32,266 --> 00:24:35,200
Yeah, I'm here
to Houston as a reboot.
464
00:24:35,266 --> 00:24:36,667
[Stephanie] I don't even know
what to say.
465
00:24:38,367 --> 00:24:39,667
[Martin] You're welcome.
466
00:24:46,300 --> 00:24:47,800
[Stephanie] My ears
are starting to pop.
467
00:24:56,567 --> 00:24:57,800
[Martin] Ice.
468
00:24:57,867 --> 00:24:59,567
I'm just not ready
for the ice.
469
00:24:59,567 --> 00:25:01,467
[Stephanie]
Oh, I'm officially scared.
470
00:25:08,667 --> 00:25:10,166
[Martin] There it comes,
this mountain.
471
00:25:11,867 --> 00:25:13,166
[Stephanie]
Oh, it's actually snowing.
472
00:25:13,166 --> 00:25:15,300
-[Martin] Yeah.
-[Stephanie] Oh Lord!
473
00:25:15,367 --> 00:25:17,867
This is like panic
attack mode, man.
474
00:25:21,100 --> 00:25:23,700
[Martin] My sweet-o time,
I'm in a hurry right now.
475
00:25:23,767 --> 00:25:24,867
I mean,
I don't like this truck.
476
00:25:24,967 --> 00:25:25,831
[Stephanie] Oh, can we not?
477
00:25:25,831 --> 00:25:26,100
[Stephanie] Oh, can we not?
478
00:25:26,100 --> 00:25:27,867
-[Martin]
Yeah, I'm gonna pass it.
-[Stephanie] Oh.
479
00:25:30,500 --> 00:25:31,667
[Martin] All right.
Here we go.
480
00:25:31,767 --> 00:25:33,200
[Stephanie] He was coming
towards us.
481
00:25:35,967 --> 00:25:38,667
We've been driving
for three hours
and I'm really sore.
482
00:25:42,367 --> 00:25:44,266
It feels like
we've been driving forever.
483
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,767
I can't believe
we still have
so much to go.
484
00:25:52,367 --> 00:25:54,000
I knew this was gonna be bad,
485
00:25:54,066 --> 00:25:55,400
but I didn't know
it was going to be this bad.
486
00:26:03,867 --> 00:26:05,000
-Good morning.
-Good morning.
487
00:26:06,166 --> 00:26:07,467
I went to try to get
your breakfast.
488
00:26:07,567 --> 00:26:09,066
This is all I can find.
489
00:26:09,066 --> 00:26:10,100
Oh, that's okay.
490
00:26:10,166 --> 00:26:11,700
How was your night tonight?
491
00:26:11,767 --> 00:26:12,800
Not too bad.
492
00:26:12,867 --> 00:26:17,800
Some pain in my hip
and, um, too much pain.
493
00:26:17,867 --> 00:26:19,567
I might not eat
that much today.
494
00:26:19,567 --> 00:26:20,900
[Martin] I know.
Do what you can.
495
00:26:22,467 --> 00:26:24,200
You need anything else?
496
00:26:24,266 --> 00:26:25,767
[Stephanie] No.
497
00:26:25,867 --> 00:26:27,305
-[Martin] All right.
-I just wanna get going.
498
00:26:27,305 --> 00:26:28,266
-[Martin] All right.
-I just wanna get going.
499
00:26:28,367 --> 00:26:30,300
[Martin] All right,
while you do that,
I'm gonna grab this,
500
00:26:30,367 --> 00:26:33,266
take it out to the car,
bring the car around.
501
00:26:33,367 --> 00:26:35,066
All right.
502
00:26:41,300 --> 00:26:45,100
Waking up today and facing
another day on the road
was a miserable feeling.
503
00:26:47,300 --> 00:26:48,967
I just wanted to stay in bed.
504
00:26:48,967 --> 00:26:51,467
But then I remembered
I'm in the middle of nowhere,
505
00:26:51,567 --> 00:26:54,767
somewhere in Utah,
so I can't stay here.
506
00:26:58,867 --> 00:27:00,100
[sighs]
507
00:27:08,867 --> 00:27:10,066
[Stephanie] Phew!
508
00:27:10,066 --> 00:27:11,300
Oh.
509
00:27:14,767 --> 00:27:16,867
Oh, my hip.
Oh, my hip.
510
00:27:16,967 --> 00:27:19,400
Oh, that was worse
than I thought.
511
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:26,166
We still have 16 hours
to go to get to Houston.
512
00:27:26,266 --> 00:27:27,305
And I don't even wanna think
about how many days
it's going to take us.
513
00:27:27,305 --> 00:27:29,667
And I don't even wanna think
about how many days
it's going to take us.
514
00:27:35,367 --> 00:27:37,800
Because each day is getting
worse with the pain.
515
00:27:42,467 --> 00:27:43,767
-You okay?
-Yeah.
516
00:27:47,367 --> 00:27:48,567
[Stephanie]
The pain is pretty bad.
517
00:27:48,567 --> 00:27:50,600
It's like a 10 on the scale
right now.
518
00:27:50,667 --> 00:27:55,100
I get throbbing through
my spine on my back
and then the hips.
519
00:27:55,166 --> 00:27:56,266
[Martin] You ready?
520
00:27:56,367 --> 00:27:57,305
-[Stephanie] Ready.
-[Martin] All right.
521
00:27:57,305 --> 00:27:57,867
-[Stephanie] Ready.
-[Martin] All right.
522
00:27:57,967 --> 00:27:59,367
[Stephanie] I'm bad.
But I'm ready.
523
00:28:03,967 --> 00:28:07,867
[woman] Continue on US-84 East
for 126 miles.
524
00:28:07,867 --> 00:28:10,100
[Martin] So I noticed
you didn't eat anything
this morning,
525
00:28:10,166 --> 00:28:13,166
so just let me know
when you get hungry
and we'll stop.
526
00:28:13,266 --> 00:28:17,100
I will. I woke up nauseous.
527
00:28:17,166 --> 00:28:18,867
I don't know
if it's everything
catching up to me
528
00:28:18,967 --> 00:28:22,667
or all the bumps
and windy roads.
529
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:25,467
Trip so far is pretty long.
530
00:28:26,667 --> 00:28:27,305
Pretty hard on me right now.
531
00:28:27,305 --> 00:28:28,266
Pretty hard on me right now.
532
00:28:28,367 --> 00:28:30,367
Been swelling a lot,
533
00:28:30,467 --> 00:28:33,500
especially the lower ball that
I have down there in my leg.
534
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:36,367
I just wanna get there.
535
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:40,567
Welcome to New Mexico.
536
00:28:40,567 --> 00:28:43,467
We got nine hours
till we're there in Texas.
537
00:28:46,500 --> 00:28:47,867
[Stephanie] I can't sit
for a long time
538
00:28:47,867 --> 00:28:50,367
'cause then my hips
start hurting a lot.
539
00:28:50,367 --> 00:28:53,400
I try to lift my hips up
a little bit and twist.
540
00:28:53,467 --> 00:28:54,533
I don't have much room
541
00:28:54,567 --> 00:28:57,266
'cause my stomach's
on... on the dash part.
542
00:28:57,367 --> 00:28:58,467
You hungry?
543
00:28:59,467 --> 00:29:01,166
[Stephanie] Yeah.
I should probably stop.
544
00:29:01,266 --> 00:29:02,400
Is that a gas station?
545
00:29:02,467 --> 00:29:03,767
[Martin] It looks like it.
Yeah.
546
00:29:03,867 --> 00:29:04,900
[Stephanie] Yes.
547
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:15,200
[Martin] Okay.
548
00:29:21,567 --> 00:29:23,600
[Stephanie] Oh, snapples.
549
00:29:23,667 --> 00:29:25,000
[Martin] Come on.
550
00:29:27,867 --> 00:29:29,300
-You got it?
-Yeah.
551
00:29:29,367 --> 00:29:31,000
All right.
552
00:29:34,066 --> 00:29:35,667
We gotta make it up there.
553
00:29:35,667 --> 00:29:37,000
[Stephanie] Yeah.
554
00:29:39,867 --> 00:29:41,367
[grunts]
555
00:29:44,700 --> 00:29:46,600
-[Martin] So you know
what you want?
-[Stephanie] Yeah.
556
00:29:46,667 --> 00:29:48,000
The carne asada burrito bowl.
557
00:29:48,100 --> 00:29:50,767
And then
two grilled chicken tacos.
558
00:29:50,767 --> 00:29:52,166
[Martin] Oh, wow!
559
00:29:53,567 --> 00:29:55,200
Burrito bowl!
560
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,000
Let the munching begin.
561
00:30:04,900 --> 00:30:07,567
We only went about
five hours yesterday.
562
00:30:07,667 --> 00:30:10,400
This has just been
a lot harder than
I thought it would be.
563
00:30:15,700 --> 00:30:17,000
This drive is hell.
564
00:30:17,100 --> 00:30:19,567
I'm swelling.
I can't get comfortable.
565
00:30:22,567 --> 00:30:25,600
These little chairs hurt
my legs, though, my hip.
566
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:29,900
[Martin] You wanna
move back to the car?
567
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:33,700
I need to be out of it
for a minute.
568
00:31:21,467 --> 00:31:23,266
[Stephanie] I just...
I can't do it anymore.
569
00:31:26,266 --> 00:31:27,305
You got the door?
570
00:31:27,305 --> 00:31:27,400
You got the door?
571
00:31:31,100 --> 00:31:32,767
Every time we pick a hotel,
572
00:31:32,767 --> 00:31:36,567
I worry about
where the rooms are located,
573
00:31:36,667 --> 00:31:37,867
if they have one,
574
00:31:37,967 --> 00:31:40,867
and how far exactly
from the door
575
00:31:40,867 --> 00:31:43,266
that I would have to go
to get to that room.
576
00:31:51,367 --> 00:31:54,300
So far, I've been able
to do 35 steps.
577
00:31:54,367 --> 00:31:56,367
To pass that,
it's been too far.
578
00:31:59,100 --> 00:32:00,400
Oh, God.
579
00:32:03,300 --> 00:32:04,700
[Martin] We're almost there.
580
00:32:04,767 --> 00:32:06,367
-[Stephanie] Are we?
-[Martin] Thirty one, 32.
581
00:32:06,467 --> 00:32:09,066
[Stephanie] Okay.
Oh, it hurts.
582
00:32:09,066 --> 00:32:11,767
Oh, Jesus.
583
00:32:16,867 --> 00:32:18,000
[door knob rattling]
584
00:32:28,867 --> 00:32:30,166
[Martin] Where's the lights?
585
00:32:31,367 --> 00:32:33,567
[panting]
586
00:32:35,467 --> 00:32:36,700
Oh, God.
587
00:32:41,767 --> 00:32:43,467
-Are you okay?
-Yeah.
588
00:32:43,467 --> 00:32:45,000
-[Martin] Done?
-Yeah.
589
00:32:46,100 --> 00:32:47,667
I'm done.
590
00:32:50,667 --> 00:32:54,166
Be honest, it is probably
the hardest thing I've done
in a while
591
00:32:54,266 --> 00:32:57,305
'cause then I know
I still have
to come back home
592
00:32:57,305 --> 00:32:57,867
'cause then I know
I still have
to come back home
593
00:32:57,967 --> 00:33:00,667
through that long drive
all over again.
594
00:33:00,667 --> 00:33:04,266
My appointment with Dr. Now
is the day after tomorrow.
595
00:33:04,367 --> 00:33:06,867
I don't know. I just hope
he can help me fix myself.
596
00:33:16,467 --> 00:33:18,000
I am ready.
597
00:33:18,100 --> 00:33:20,000
I'm nervous.
Man, I have butterflies.
598
00:33:21,567 --> 00:33:25,266
We finally made it to Houston.
It's been such a long journey.
599
00:33:29,467 --> 00:33:32,266
I might be devastated
if the appointment
doesn't go well...
600
00:33:33,667 --> 00:33:35,667
and if Dr. Now
doesn't help me.
601
00:33:35,667 --> 00:33:39,066
I came all this way
'cause this is my last hope.
602
00:33:48,900 --> 00:33:50,266
You ready?
603
00:34:13,467 --> 00:34:14,967
Stephanie?
604
00:34:16,900 --> 00:34:19,200
[Stephanie] I've done
and tried everything else.
605
00:34:19,266 --> 00:34:22,767
So if I don't get weight loss
surgery here with Dr. Now,
606
00:34:22,767 --> 00:34:24,767
then I'm as good as gone.
607
00:34:24,867 --> 00:34:26,967
So this is my last
and only hope.
608
00:34:45,900 --> 00:34:48,100
We finally made it
to Dr. Now's office
609
00:34:48,166 --> 00:34:49,767
to get his help
to lose weight.
610
00:34:49,867 --> 00:34:52,100
My first appointment with him.
611
00:34:52,166 --> 00:34:54,166
Right now,
I have to see the truth.
612
00:34:54,266 --> 00:34:55,867
I'm not looking forward to it.
613
00:35:00,967 --> 00:35:03,367
My highest weight
was a little bit over that.
614
00:35:03,367 --> 00:35:05,300
So I'm happy that
I've lost a little bit.
615
00:35:06,567 --> 00:35:06,741
We're going
to room five, okay?
616
00:35:06,741 --> 00:35:08,500
We're going
to room five, okay?
617
00:35:08,567 --> 00:35:10,100
[Stephanie]
But I'm still embarrassed.
618
00:35:10,166 --> 00:35:12,367
I really hope
Dr. Now can help me
619
00:35:12,367 --> 00:35:14,300
because I know I can't do it
on my own.
620
00:35:33,166 --> 00:35:34,266
You okay?
621
00:35:34,266 --> 00:35:35,900
Yeah. My foot hurts.
622
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:36,741
The moment of truth.
623
00:35:36,741 --> 00:35:37,166
The moment of truth.
624
00:35:39,266 --> 00:35:40,600
[knock at the door]
625
00:35:44,767 --> 00:35:46,100
-Hello.
-[Stephanie] Hello.
626
00:35:46,166 --> 00:35:47,367
-[Martin] Hello.
-How y'all doing?
627
00:35:47,367 --> 00:35:48,600
-[Stephanie] Good.
-[Martin] Good.
628
00:35:48,667 --> 00:35:50,767
-Good.
-[door closes]
629
00:35:50,767 --> 00:35:53,100
All right.
You must be Stephanie.
630
00:35:53,166 --> 00:35:54,266
Yes.
631
00:35:54,367 --> 00:35:56,800
All right.
And this young person is who?
632
00:35:56,867 --> 00:35:57,967
My stepdad.
633
00:35:57,967 --> 00:35:59,467
-[Dr. Nowzaradan]
Your stepdad?
-Yes.
634
00:35:59,567 --> 00:36:01,567
All right.
Where are you all coming from?
635
00:36:01,667 --> 00:36:03,867
-Washington.
-All right.
636
00:36:03,867 --> 00:36:05,767
That's a long way
to Houston, huh?
637
00:36:05,867 --> 00:36:06,741
[Stephanie] Yeah, very long.
638
00:36:06,741 --> 00:36:07,266
[Stephanie] Yeah, very long.
639
00:36:07,367 --> 00:36:09,767
So how long it take you
to get down here?
640
00:36:09,867 --> 00:36:11,567
-[Stephanie] About five days?
-[Martin] Five days.
641
00:36:11,667 --> 00:36:13,166
-Mm-hmm.
-Hmm.
642
00:36:13,166 --> 00:36:16,100
And so what brought you
down to Houston?
643
00:36:16,166 --> 00:36:19,000
Hopefully, for help
getting my weight down
644
00:36:19,100 --> 00:36:20,900
and getting healthy again.
645
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:22,300
What do you mean,
"healthy again"?
646
00:36:22,367 --> 00:36:24,367
You were healthy before?
647
00:36:24,367 --> 00:36:25,767
I wasn't this big.
648
00:36:25,867 --> 00:36:29,400
I was able to move around
and walk more and...
649
00:36:30,367 --> 00:36:31,467
All right.
650
00:36:31,467 --> 00:36:32,900
On a typical day,
what do you eat?
651
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,400
Just whatever...
whatever I can get, I guess.
652
00:36:39,467 --> 00:36:42,567
I mean, for dinner,
I'd have a big plate
of spaghetti.
653
00:36:42,667 --> 00:36:45,667
From time you wake up,
what time you wake up?
654
00:36:45,667 --> 00:36:48,500
I wake up usually at eight
every morning with my kids.
655
00:36:48,567 --> 00:36:51,467
Okay, So what do you eat
at that time?
656
00:36:51,567 --> 00:36:53,300
Um, I eat with my kids
usually.
657
00:36:53,367 --> 00:36:59,667
I'll have just a bunch
of eggs and sausage,
sometimes pancakes.
658
00:36:59,667 --> 00:37:02,100
-Okay.
-So what do you drink
in the morning?
659
00:37:03,867 --> 00:37:05,667
Chocolate milk, juice,
sometimes soda.
660
00:37:05,667 --> 00:37:06,741
Chocolate milk and juice?
661
00:37:06,741 --> 00:37:07,266
Chocolate milk and juice?
662
00:37:07,266 --> 00:37:09,266
Yeah. [chuckles]
663
00:37:09,266 --> 00:37:11,900
-Those are high
calorie drinks.
-Yeah.
664
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,500
Okay, then after that
what do you eat?
665
00:37:14,567 --> 00:37:17,500
Um, when my kids
are at school,
666
00:37:17,567 --> 00:37:19,767
I'll... I'll snack and I'll...
I'll eat, like, sandwiches.
667
00:37:19,767 --> 00:37:21,100
[Dr. Nowzaradan]
Snack mean what?
668
00:37:21,166 --> 00:37:23,967
Or I'll snack
on cupcakes and chips.
669
00:37:24,900 --> 00:37:27,867
Who buy you
those cupcakes and chips?
670
00:37:27,967 --> 00:37:32,900
I, uh, send either my stepdad
or my son to the store.
671
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:34,800
Sometimes my mom.
672
00:37:34,867 --> 00:37:36,741
I write a list and they go
and buy me what I...
673
00:37:36,741 --> 00:37:36,767
I write a list and they go
and buy me what I...
674
00:37:36,767 --> 00:37:39,000
-what I usually want.
-Okay.
675
00:37:39,100 --> 00:37:41,000
So who else
is in the household?
676
00:37:41,100 --> 00:37:42,467
It's me and my three kids.
677
00:37:43,467 --> 00:37:46,400
So three kids,
how old are the kids?
678
00:37:46,467 --> 00:37:48,467
My... My oldest is 16.
679
00:37:48,567 --> 00:37:50,600
And then it's my daughter,
she's just turned nine.
680
00:37:50,667 --> 00:37:52,467
And then my youngest is five.
681
00:37:52,467 --> 00:37:54,300
Any of them
have a weight problem?
682
00:37:54,367 --> 00:37:55,500
My oldest.
683
00:37:56,967 --> 00:38:00,600
He's 16 and he weighs about
400 pounds right now.
684
00:38:00,667 --> 00:38:02,300
-[Dr. Nowzaradan]
Four hundred pound?
-Mm-hmm.
685
00:38:02,367 --> 00:38:06,467
Okay, so your son
or your stepdad will go get
what you order?
686
00:38:06,567 --> 00:38:06,741
-Yeah.
-Okay.
687
00:38:06,741 --> 00:38:08,000
-Yeah.
-Okay.
688
00:38:08,066 --> 00:38:10,300
So they're your enabler.
689
00:38:10,367 --> 00:38:13,000
So how are we gonna break
that cycle
690
00:38:13,066 --> 00:38:17,600
of being everybody
supporting your eating habit?
691
00:38:17,667 --> 00:38:19,567
I'm gonna have...
I'm gonna have to change it.
692
00:38:19,667 --> 00:38:20,867
I'm gonna have to...
693
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:23,567
They're gonna have
to tell me, "no."
694
00:38:23,667 --> 00:38:24,867
[chuckles]
695
00:38:24,900 --> 00:38:27,266
If you keep this up, you know,
you're gonna hit 700 pound
696
00:38:27,367 --> 00:38:29,767
and after that
you're gonna be bedridden
697
00:38:29,867 --> 00:38:32,967
and then your health
is gonna go down really quick.
698
00:38:32,967 --> 00:38:36,166
So how motivated you are
to change?
699
00:38:36,166 --> 00:38:36,741
Extremely.
700
00:38:36,741 --> 00:38:37,266
Extremely.
701
00:38:37,266 --> 00:38:39,467
It's why I'm here.
I wanna change.
702
00:38:39,567 --> 00:38:42,166
What do you do all day?
You... Do you work?
703
00:38:42,166 --> 00:38:46,066
No, I'm usually just
at home watching TV,
704
00:38:46,066 --> 00:38:47,266
which, you know, I want...
705
00:38:47,367 --> 00:38:49,867
I wanna be able
to go to work.
706
00:38:49,867 --> 00:38:52,100
So right now, how are you
supporting yourself?
707
00:38:53,266 --> 00:38:55,867
I have my mom
and my stepdad to support...
708
00:38:55,967 --> 00:38:57,166
to support me right now.
709
00:38:58,767 --> 00:39:00,166
How long
they've been doing that?
710
00:39:02,066 --> 00:39:03,400
You know, how long...
711
00:39:04,667 --> 00:39:06,667
Few... few years now.
712
00:39:06,767 --> 00:39:07,867
[sighs]
713
00:39:07,867 --> 00:39:09,000
All right.
714
00:39:09,066 --> 00:39:11,266
So you got the parents
that are supporting
715
00:39:11,367 --> 00:39:14,000
your eating habit
and everything else.
716
00:39:14,100 --> 00:39:17,667
So I don't see
a whole lot motivation
to change.
717
00:39:17,767 --> 00:39:19,367
I don't want my kids like me.
718
00:39:19,467 --> 00:39:22,767
So that's gonna motivate me
to change myself.
719
00:39:22,867 --> 00:39:25,767
You might haven't done
anything about it
at this point.
720
00:39:25,867 --> 00:39:29,467
I've tried. I don't think
I under... quite understand,
721
00:39:29,467 --> 00:39:32,800
you know, size wise,
portion wise.
722
00:39:32,867 --> 00:39:36,741
It's just something
I just eat until I'm full.
723
00:39:36,741 --> 00:39:37,300
It's just something
I just eat until I'm full.
724
00:39:37,367 --> 00:39:41,166
So right now I'm skeptical
if you're gonna change
anything.
725
00:39:41,266 --> 00:39:42,467
Okay.
726
00:39:42,467 --> 00:39:45,467
And it's not that
you just woke up
and realized that
727
00:39:45,467 --> 00:39:47,000
your weight was your problem.
728
00:39:47,100 --> 00:39:48,667
You've known all along,
729
00:39:48,767 --> 00:39:50,500
but you haven't done
anything about it.
730
00:39:50,567 --> 00:39:55,467
Nobody around you seems
like is supportive of you
to change.
731
00:39:55,567 --> 00:39:58,000
Everybody is supporting you,
to make you happy,
732
00:39:58,066 --> 00:40:01,367
to eat what you want,
and that's going
to be a problem.
733
00:40:01,367 --> 00:40:05,200
So this is gonna be
a really difficult task
for you
734
00:40:05,266 --> 00:40:06,741
and depend
on how motivate you are
735
00:40:06,741 --> 00:40:08,667
and depend
on how motivate you are
736
00:40:08,667 --> 00:40:10,600
and how hard
are you gonna try.
737
00:40:10,667 --> 00:40:13,166
I'm gonna give you
some information.
738
00:40:13,166 --> 00:40:14,200
Okay.
739
00:40:14,266 --> 00:40:17,000
And we're gonna see
if you can get
740
00:40:17,100 --> 00:40:19,967
some changes made
on your eating habit.
741
00:40:19,967 --> 00:40:22,567
-And then if you do that,
I'm gonna work with you.
-Okay.
742
00:40:22,567 --> 00:40:24,767
But if you're not able
to lose weight,
743
00:40:24,867 --> 00:40:27,667
then not much we can do
for you and we go from there.
744
00:40:27,767 --> 00:40:29,000
-Okay?
-Okay.
745
00:40:29,066 --> 00:40:32,166
-How was your activity?
-I don't move around much.
746
00:40:32,166 --> 00:40:35,367
Um, I have a growth
that's growing right here.
747
00:40:35,367 --> 00:40:36,741
I'm not really sure
exactly what it... what it is.
748
00:40:36,741 --> 00:40:38,166
I'm not really sure
exactly what it... what it is.
749
00:40:38,266 --> 00:40:40,967
And so it's...
it's hard for me to walk.
750
00:40:40,967 --> 00:40:42,867
So how long you had
that growth?
751
00:40:42,967 --> 00:40:47,066
About four...
four or five months now.
752
00:40:47,066 --> 00:40:48,500
-[Dr. Nowzaradan]
Four, five months.
-Yeah.
753
00:40:48,567 --> 00:40:52,266
And that's kind of
how my weight started
going up higher.
754
00:40:53,467 --> 00:40:55,667
And before that,
I was in a car accident
755
00:40:55,767 --> 00:40:57,066
that kept me in bed
for a while.
756
00:40:58,300 --> 00:41:00,567
And I didn't get
to move around much
757
00:41:00,567 --> 00:41:03,266
and it's just gone up
from there.
758
00:41:03,266 --> 00:41:05,500
All right. Let me go
get some stuff for you
759
00:41:05,567 --> 00:41:06,741
and bring it and explain
to you, okay?
760
00:41:06,741 --> 00:41:07,567
and bring it and explain
to you, okay?
761
00:41:07,667 --> 00:41:09,100
-Okay.
-All right. I'll be back.
762
00:41:09,166 --> 00:41:10,800
[Stephanie] Okay.
763
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:16,400
[door closes]
764
00:41:16,467 --> 00:41:19,567
I saw Stephanie.
She came from Washington.
765
00:41:19,567 --> 00:41:21,700
It took her six days
to get down here.
766
00:41:21,767 --> 00:41:23,667
And she came here
with her stepdad
767
00:41:23,767 --> 00:41:28,567
and she eats uncontrollably
and she doesn't know
why she's heavy,
768
00:41:28,567 --> 00:41:31,500
why she's obese,
and she eats
769
00:41:31,567 --> 00:41:34,967
very high calorie food
and drink chocolate milk
and juice.
770
00:41:34,967 --> 00:41:36,741
And then she snack
on cupcakes all day.
771
00:41:36,741 --> 00:41:38,467
And then she snack
on cupcakes all day.
772
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:42,667
All right.
I got some stuff for you.
773
00:41:42,767 --> 00:41:46,867
And this is what I want you
to read everyday.
774
00:41:46,867 --> 00:41:49,767
She doesn't do a whole lot
and she's not very active.
775
00:41:49,867 --> 00:41:53,967
But on top of that,
she got worse enabling
step-down
776
00:41:53,967 --> 00:41:56,667
and family that supports
her eating habit
777
00:41:56,767 --> 00:42:01,100
and supporting her doing
nothing and taking care
of three kids.
778
00:42:01,166 --> 00:42:06,166
And this is a recipe
for being a totally
failure in their life
779
00:42:06,266 --> 00:42:06,741
and every aspect
of the child care
780
00:42:06,741 --> 00:42:08,867
and every aspect
of the child care
781
00:42:08,867 --> 00:42:11,300
and future of everybody.
782
00:42:11,367 --> 00:42:14,867
The next item,
you probably know that.
783
00:42:14,867 --> 00:42:16,867
It says, everyday
you don't eat very much.
784
00:42:16,867 --> 00:42:19,000
-Read that very carefully.
-Okay.
785
00:42:19,100 --> 00:42:22,500
And here's a two-factor
that control your weight.
786
00:42:22,567 --> 00:42:26,367
And this is gonna be
very important
for her and her family
787
00:42:26,367 --> 00:42:28,667
to make the changes
that she need
788
00:42:28,667 --> 00:42:31,800
and change her life now
before it's too late.
789
00:42:31,867 --> 00:42:34,867
Also, what I want you
to concentrate on,
790
00:42:34,867 --> 00:42:36,741
several pages of exercise.
791
00:42:36,741 --> 00:42:37,000
several pages of exercise.
792
00:42:37,100 --> 00:42:40,600
I want you to do
those exercise
one hour in the morning.
793
00:42:40,667 --> 00:42:41,667
[Stephanie] Okay.
794
00:42:41,767 --> 00:42:44,000
[Dr. Nowzaradan]
And one hour in the evening.
795
00:42:44,066 --> 00:42:47,867
And those are the exercises
that'd be fit at your size
that you can do.
796
00:42:47,967 --> 00:42:50,667
-Okay.
-So you get all the tools
that you need.
797
00:42:50,767 --> 00:42:52,867
If you have any issues,
give me a call.
798
00:42:52,967 --> 00:42:54,033
-Okay.
-Okay?
799
00:42:54,100 --> 00:42:58,467
And also, you may wanna work
on getting your son
800
00:42:58,567 --> 00:43:01,867
educated about eating habit
and... and try
to work with him.
801
00:43:01,967 --> 00:43:03,100
-Okay.
-All right.
802
00:43:03,166 --> 00:43:04,467
Well, next time you come by,
803
00:43:04,567 --> 00:43:06,166
I want you to bring
your son with you.
804
00:43:06,166 --> 00:43:06,741
-Okay.
-[Dr. Nowzaradan] Okay?
805
00:43:06,741 --> 00:43:07,266
-Okay.
-[Dr. Nowzaradan] Okay?
806
00:43:07,266 --> 00:43:08,367
-Okay.
-All right.
807
00:43:08,367 --> 00:43:10,767
So you think you can make
those changes?
808
00:43:10,767 --> 00:43:12,567
[Stephanie] Yes.
809
00:43:12,567 --> 00:43:15,867
And hopefully
you will have everybody
in the family cooperate.
810
00:43:15,867 --> 00:43:17,166
-[Stephanie] Yes. Yes.
-[Martin] Yes.
811
00:43:17,266 --> 00:43:19,367
All right? Any questions?
812
00:43:19,367 --> 00:43:21,266
-Nope.
-Nope, not at the moment.
813
00:43:21,266 --> 00:43:23,800
-All right.
I'll see you later.
-Thank you.
814
00:43:23,867 --> 00:43:25,100
-[Martin] Okay, thank you.
-Okay.
815
00:43:30,567 --> 00:43:31,867
[door closes]
816
00:43:31,967 --> 00:43:33,867
-Da-da-da-da. No.
-No.
817
00:43:35,467 --> 00:43:36,741
-You got this?
-[Martin] Yeah.
818
00:43:36,741 --> 00:43:37,300
-You got this?
-[Martin] Yeah.
819
00:43:37,367 --> 00:43:38,467
We all have the chance.
820
00:43:38,567 --> 00:43:40,367
-Yes.
-You ready to go?
821
00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:43,867
It went pretty good.
822
00:43:43,867 --> 00:43:46,100
He gave me some tips
and some pointers
823
00:43:46,166 --> 00:43:47,700
of how to change things.
824
00:43:47,767 --> 00:43:50,467
Eat better, exercises.
825
00:43:50,467 --> 00:43:52,266
I had no idea I couldn't
drink chocolate milk.
826
00:43:52,367 --> 00:43:53,800
I didn't realize
it was bad for me.
827
00:43:53,867 --> 00:43:55,266
I thought milk
was good for you,
828
00:43:55,367 --> 00:43:57,266
just adding a little bit
of chocolate might not hurt.
829
00:43:57,266 --> 00:43:58,567
[chuckles]
830
00:44:00,367 --> 00:44:01,867
Nobody likes change.
831
00:44:01,967 --> 00:44:04,800
So changing anything
is the struggle for anybody.
832
00:44:04,867 --> 00:44:06,741
And we've been
in such a big routine
for several years.
833
00:44:06,741 --> 00:44:08,467
And we've been
in such a big routine
for several years.
834
00:44:08,567 --> 00:44:11,667
It's just... We just
have to change it all.
835
00:44:11,667 --> 00:44:13,767
I think we all changed
our eating habits
836
00:44:13,867 --> 00:44:16,300
that should be able
to follow a little easier.
837
00:44:16,367 --> 00:44:20,467
I know I need to do this
for my life and for my kids.
838
00:44:20,467 --> 00:44:22,100
You know,
I don't wanna die soon.
839
00:44:22,166 --> 00:44:24,700
And if I keep doing this,
I will.
840
00:44:24,767 --> 00:44:26,367
And then my kids
won't have a mom.
841
00:44:28,166 --> 00:44:29,867
I can't let them
without me.
842
00:44:32,667 --> 00:44:34,567
This is do or die.
It's life or death.
843
00:44:35,667 --> 00:44:36,741
And I don't choose death.
844
00:44:36,741 --> 00:44:37,066
And I don't choose death.
845
00:44:40,500 --> 00:44:41,867
-[Martin] You okay?
-Yeah.
846
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:44,400
-[car door slams]
-[Stephanie sighs]
847
00:45:06,300 --> 00:45:07,500
[door creaking]
848
00:45:11,100 --> 00:45:12,467
[Martin] Good morning.
849
00:45:12,567 --> 00:45:15,100
-[Stephanie] Good morning.
-And you start already?
850
00:45:15,166 --> 00:45:16,567
Yeah.
851
00:45:19,467 --> 00:45:22,066
Are these the right portions
that you were supposed
to have?
852
00:45:22,066 --> 00:45:23,266
I think so.
853
00:45:23,367 --> 00:45:25,100
[Martin] I think so
is not gonna cut us,
Stephanie.
854
00:45:25,166 --> 00:45:26,467
We gotta make sure
from now on.
855
00:45:26,567 --> 00:45:27,700
We don't have
measurey thing here.
856
00:45:27,767 --> 00:45:29,700
[Martin] Well,
we have to get you one.
857
00:45:29,767 --> 00:45:31,700
The weigh... the weigh thing,
whatever that thing.
858
00:45:31,767 --> 00:45:33,500
Yeah. Scale.
859
00:45:33,567 --> 00:45:35,400
-[Stephanie] Yes.
-Okay.
860
00:45:35,467 --> 00:45:38,400
Coming back from Houston
was pretty horrible.
861
00:45:38,467 --> 00:45:40,900
And when I got home,
I had to stay in bed for,
862
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:42,900
like, two to three days
863
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:44,700
just so the swelling
would go down,
864
00:45:44,767 --> 00:45:46,000
to be able to move.
865
00:45:47,767 --> 00:45:47,810
I'll carry it.
I'm good at that.
866
00:45:47,810 --> 00:45:50,266
I'll carry it.
I'm good at that.
867
00:45:50,266 --> 00:45:52,567
[Martin] You'll get good
at it. I'll show you.
868
00:45:52,667 --> 00:45:53,700
[Stephanie] I started my diet.
869
00:45:53,767 --> 00:45:55,567
I started a little bit
of exercise.
870
00:45:55,667 --> 00:45:59,867
I feel a little bit more...
more energized,
a little more motivated.
871
00:45:59,967 --> 00:46:02,266
I'm starting to get there,
starting to move around more.
872
00:46:06,867 --> 00:46:08,767
-[Martin] How is it?
-It's good.
873
00:46:08,767 --> 00:46:10,200
The food's different.
874
00:46:10,266 --> 00:46:13,367
It's not as sugary and sweet.
875
00:46:13,467 --> 00:46:14,767
I'm not used to that.
876
00:46:14,767 --> 00:46:16,867
So it's like a shock
on my body.
877
00:46:16,967 --> 00:46:17,810
It's just hard to give up
what I like
and what tastes good.
878
00:46:17,810 --> 00:46:20,166
It's just hard to give up
what I like
and what tastes good.
879
00:46:20,166 --> 00:46:22,900
I saw you put garlic salt,
but I don't taste it.
880
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,300
'Cause it changes the flavor.
You don't taste the garlic.
881
00:46:25,367 --> 00:46:27,467
Can you actually put
just garlic in it?
882
00:46:27,567 --> 00:46:28,767
You could,
but we don't have any.
883
00:46:28,767 --> 00:46:31,000
We have to get you some.
I prefer the minced garlic.
884
00:46:32,367 --> 00:46:33,433
Yeah.
885
00:46:34,567 --> 00:46:38,600
I eat a lot... lot less,
I've noticed now.
886
00:46:38,667 --> 00:46:40,567
Sometimes I want more
and I'm like,
887
00:46:40,567 --> 00:46:41,700
"Uh, Just give it to me."
888
00:46:41,767 --> 00:46:45,000
But then I got people
who tell me, "no."
889
00:46:45,100 --> 00:46:47,810
Martin tells me, "no"
all the time now,
so I have to get used to it.
890
00:46:47,810 --> 00:46:49,567
Martin tells me, "no"
all the time now,
so I have to get used to it.
891
00:46:53,967 --> 00:46:56,567
So garlic and a scale.
892
00:46:56,567 --> 00:46:57,900
Exercise!
893
00:46:58,967 --> 00:47:02,166
Right now I exercise
at least twice a day.
894
00:47:02,166 --> 00:47:07,100
I know I should
probably be three times
a day like the book says.
895
00:47:07,166 --> 00:47:10,266
Remember, the doctor
wants to see you, too.
896
00:47:10,367 --> 00:47:12,000
-Oh, I know.
-Will you wait in here,
Martin?
897
00:47:12,066 --> 00:47:13,166
Yeah, I'll wait here.
I'm gonna...
898
00:47:13,166 --> 00:47:14,767
-I'll clean up the kitchen.
-[coughs]
899
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,700
My goal is to be able
to go around the whole block
in a month,
900
00:47:17,767 --> 00:47:17,810
and I'm going to work towards
being able to do that.
901
00:47:17,810 --> 00:47:20,200
and I'm going to work towards
being able to do that.
902
00:47:21,867 --> 00:47:25,567
Like it takes everything
in me every day just
to get up and do anything.
903
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:33,767
All right, Mom.
We go dead end and back.
904
00:47:37,367 --> 00:47:40,500
[Stephanie] Just getting
the help from my son,
905
00:47:40,567 --> 00:47:42,567
knowing that he's here for me,
906
00:47:42,567 --> 00:47:44,367
knowing he's gonna help me,
907
00:47:44,367 --> 00:47:46,000
knowing he'll do this
with me...
908
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:47,810
and it just makes me proud...
909
00:47:47,810 --> 00:47:48,667
and it just makes me proud...
910
00:47:49,667 --> 00:47:52,066
and it makes me motivated,
911
00:47:52,066 --> 00:47:57,266
and I wanna actually do this
for him, for my kids,
and fight for it.
912
00:48:00,367 --> 00:48:02,867
So I feel like I'm changing
a lot of how I do things
913
00:48:02,967 --> 00:48:04,600
and I'm doing it
for my family.
914
00:48:04,667 --> 00:48:06,767
I want a better life for them.
915
00:48:06,867 --> 00:48:08,266
It's... It's hard,
but I'm trying.
916
00:48:11,767 --> 00:48:13,066
[Shawn] You're her support.
917
00:48:13,066 --> 00:48:14,200
[Shawn and Stephanie
chuckling]
918
00:48:31,166 --> 00:48:34,767
All right, guys, I am gonna go
try to cook dinner.
919
00:48:34,767 --> 00:48:36,100
[Blain] It sounds amazing.
920
00:48:36,166 --> 00:48:37,266
-Okay?
-[Blain] Mm-hmm.
921
00:48:37,266 --> 00:48:39,000
When I call you,
you go to the table, right?
922
00:48:39,100 --> 00:48:40,500
-Yep.
-Mm-hmm.
923
00:48:43,300 --> 00:48:45,266
The past month,
I've been staying on track...
924
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:47,810
and I feel like I've made
more progress with everything.
925
00:48:47,810 --> 00:48:48,767
and I feel like I've made
more progress with everything.
926
00:48:49,867 --> 00:48:51,000
I've been doing the diet.
927
00:48:51,033 --> 00:48:53,467
And I started making
my own meals more often.
928
00:48:56,100 --> 00:48:58,767
My mom has really
bad fibromyalgia,
929
00:48:58,767 --> 00:49:00,900
but it's forcing me
to do more on my own.
930
00:49:02,767 --> 00:49:04,667
So I can't go back
to Dr. Now, right now.
931
00:49:04,767 --> 00:49:06,967
I don't have anyone
to watch my kids
932
00:49:06,967 --> 00:49:09,800
and I won't be able to do so
until my mom gets better
933
00:49:09,867 --> 00:49:12,900
so that either
she or my stepdad
can help me again.
934
00:49:27,300 --> 00:49:28,867
[Stephanie] All right, guys.
Come in here.
935
00:49:33,567 --> 00:49:35,000
The only downside is that
936
00:49:35,100 --> 00:49:37,767
my kids have to eat
the same thing I do
937
00:49:37,867 --> 00:49:40,000
because I don't have
the energy or the time
938
00:49:40,100 --> 00:49:43,500
or the money to make
two meals every time.
939
00:49:43,567 --> 00:49:46,166
So, they're having to suffer
from my mistakes.
940
00:49:46,266 --> 00:49:47,600
I feel bad about that.
941
00:49:49,166 --> 00:49:52,400
It feels good, you know,
to actually sit
at a table with them.
942
00:49:52,467 --> 00:49:54,867
Like it's been a long time
since I got to do that myself.
943
00:49:54,867 --> 00:49:56,667
Kind of proud of myself
for that.
944
00:49:59,166 --> 00:50:00,367
Just a little bite.
945
00:50:04,266 --> 00:50:06,867
No, I don't like it.
Can I have a cornmeal?
946
00:50:08,767 --> 00:50:10,000
You sure?
947
00:50:11,100 --> 00:50:12,500
You know it's healthy, right?
948
00:50:12,567 --> 00:50:14,266
-Mm-hmm.
-I do like...
949
00:50:14,266 --> 00:50:15,400
And I do like it.
950
00:50:16,867 --> 00:50:17,810
The food was good
what my mom cooked.
951
00:50:17,810 --> 00:50:20,000
The food was good
what my mom cooked.
952
00:50:25,066 --> 00:50:26,467
[Stephanie] You're done?
953
00:50:26,467 --> 00:50:30,367
Do you guys want to go take
a walk in just a second?
954
00:50:30,367 --> 00:50:31,800
[Charlee] Yeah.
955
00:50:34,066 --> 00:50:36,266
[Stephanie]
I've been keeping up
with my exercise routine,
956
00:50:36,266 --> 00:50:38,066
and I'm getting better
at doing more.
957
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:44,367
[Charlee] I do like to go out
with my mom
958
00:50:44,367 --> 00:50:47,100
and she also can ride bikes
when she lose weight.
959
00:50:50,700 --> 00:50:52,266
Go, momma.
960
00:50:52,266 --> 00:50:54,166
-Really?
-Go, mom. Go, mom.
961
00:50:54,166 --> 00:50:55,867
-All the way?
-Go.
962
00:50:55,967 --> 00:50:57,567
-Well, I have to?
-Go, come on.
963
00:50:57,567 --> 00:50:58,767
Go.
964
00:50:59,767 --> 00:51:01,367
[panting]
965
00:51:01,467 --> 00:51:03,000
Oh, my God.
966
00:51:03,066 --> 00:51:04,567
-I did.
-Now we have to walk back.
967
00:51:04,667 --> 00:51:06,467
Well, thanks for the support.
968
00:51:06,567 --> 00:51:08,166
Felt good that I can
actually do it this time.
969
00:51:08,266 --> 00:51:10,266
Like last time, you know,
970
00:51:10,266 --> 00:51:12,367
it was a struggle just
to get to the stop sign.
971
00:51:12,467 --> 00:51:14,367
You'll carry me?
972
00:51:14,467 --> 00:51:16,166
-No?
-Now you're tired?
973
00:51:16,166 --> 00:51:17,810
-Piggyback ride?
-Are you tired?
974
00:51:17,810 --> 00:51:18,000
-Piggyback ride?
-Are you tired?
975
00:51:18,100 --> 00:51:19,667
[laughs]
976
00:51:19,667 --> 00:51:21,567
[Stephanie] I'm hoping
I get, you know,
977
00:51:21,567 --> 00:51:26,100
to the point where I can walk
past the stop sign
and keep going.
978
00:51:26,166 --> 00:51:29,100
Not just across the street,
but a little bit further.
979
00:51:32,266 --> 00:51:34,800
Sooner I get this done this,
you know,
980
00:51:34,867 --> 00:51:36,867
sooner I can get
the weight loss surgery,
981
00:51:36,967 --> 00:51:38,266
the sooner
I can get healthier.
982
00:51:38,266 --> 00:51:40,066
Lose the weight.
983
00:51:40,066 --> 00:51:42,567
That's the main thing
right now is, you know,
984
00:51:42,567 --> 00:51:43,567
getting healthy for my kids.
985
00:52:02,166 --> 00:52:04,100
All right, guys,
when we get to Nana's,
986
00:52:04,166 --> 00:52:06,000
Mommy's got to make a call
to the doctor.
987
00:52:06,100 --> 00:52:07,266
Doctor Now.
988
00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:09,767
So, I need you guys...
after you guys play
989
00:52:09,867 --> 00:52:13,967
and say hi to Nana,
we got to be quiet, okay?
990
00:52:13,967 --> 00:52:16,100
And go inside.
991
00:52:16,166 --> 00:52:17,312
All right, cool.
992
00:52:17,312 --> 00:52:17,500
All right, cool.
993
00:52:21,066 --> 00:52:23,767
It's been another month
and my mom is still sick.
994
00:52:23,867 --> 00:52:26,867
She's been feeling
a little bit better,
but she's not a 100 percent.
995
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:30,567
Not like she needs to be
for watching my kids
996
00:52:30,667 --> 00:52:33,667
and not for traveling with me
back to Houston either.
997
00:52:33,767 --> 00:52:35,667
So, it means
I've been on my own a lot.
998
00:52:37,100 --> 00:52:39,200
All right, guys,
we're at Nana's.
999
00:52:39,266 --> 00:52:41,000
-[Blain] Really?
-[Stephanie] Yeah.
1000
00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:47,000
All right, you guys.
1001
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:49,800
Go to Nana.
1002
00:52:52,567 --> 00:52:53,800
So, until she gets better,
1003
00:52:53,867 --> 00:52:56,400
Houston and Doctor Now
aren't an option.
1004
00:52:58,367 --> 00:53:01,266
Doctor Nell's office
reached out a few days ago
1005
00:53:01,266 --> 00:53:03,200
to set up a video call
with him
1006
00:53:03,266 --> 00:53:05,000
because he wants
to check in with me.
1007
00:53:05,100 --> 00:53:06,900
So that's happening today.
1008
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:09,400
But I decided to go
to my mom's house
to do it,
1009
00:53:09,467 --> 00:53:12,300
to show him that I'm able
to get out of my house now
1010
00:53:12,367 --> 00:53:15,100
'cause I've been working hard
on building up my stamina.
1011
00:53:15,166 --> 00:53:17,312
So, I'm hoping Doctor Now sees
how well I'm doing.
1012
00:53:17,312 --> 00:53:17,900
So, I'm hoping Doctor Now sees
how well I'm doing.
1013
00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:20,367
And that he understands
I'm doing my best
1014
00:53:20,467 --> 00:53:24,867
and still working hard
and that I'm gonna come back
and see him soon.
1015
00:53:24,867 --> 00:53:26,967
Right now, it's just
that my hands are tied.
1016
00:53:28,767 --> 00:53:30,500
I'm just glad
the kids get to get out.
1017
00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:36,467
I think it's cool
when Mikey talked about
the balls on the trampoline.
1018
00:53:36,567 --> 00:53:38,367
-[Stephanie] Yeah.
-[Diana] So they can play
on it.
1019
00:53:39,367 --> 00:53:40,800
[Stephanie] Charlee, Bubba,
come here.
1020
00:53:45,367 --> 00:53:47,312
I need you guys to go
sit inside while I make
a call on the video.
1021
00:53:47,312 --> 00:53:50,300
I need you guys to go
sit inside while I make
a call on the video.
1022
00:53:50,367 --> 00:53:51,600
[Diana] Charlee,
bring momma her...
1023
00:53:51,667 --> 00:53:53,100
Can you bring me the laptop?
1024
00:53:53,166 --> 00:53:55,000
[Charlee] Yeah.
1025
00:53:55,066 --> 00:53:56,600
You guys got to be
super quiet, okay?
1026
00:53:56,667 --> 00:53:58,767
[Blain] Mm-hmm.
1027
00:53:58,767 --> 00:54:00,166
-Love you.
-[Blain] Love ya.
1028
00:54:02,066 --> 00:54:03,600
They're not gonna be quiet,
are they?
1029
00:54:03,667 --> 00:54:06,200
-[Diana] No, they're not.
-They're not gonna be quiet.
1030
00:54:06,266 --> 00:54:07,400
[Diana] No.
1031
00:54:09,166 --> 00:54:10,567
Thank you much, darling.
1032
00:54:10,567 --> 00:54:12,500
Okay. Go back inside.
Keep an eye on your brother
for me.
1033
00:54:13,867 --> 00:54:15,400
[Martin] Um, and I'll go
and keep them quiet.
1034
00:54:16,667 --> 00:54:17,312
-Good luck with that.
-Yeah.
1035
00:54:17,312 --> 00:54:18,266
-Good luck with that.
-Yeah.
1036
00:54:18,367 --> 00:54:19,767
Not happening.
1037
00:54:19,867 --> 00:54:22,567
Mom, you want
to scoot on over?
1038
00:54:22,667 --> 00:54:23,700
-Come on, Dixie.
-Ouch.
1039
00:54:23,767 --> 00:54:25,367
You know, you want
to be get close.
1040
00:54:25,467 --> 00:54:27,300
[grunting]
1041
00:54:27,367 --> 00:54:29,266
My glass. Okay.
1042
00:54:29,266 --> 00:54:30,567
There we go.
1043
00:54:35,867 --> 00:54:38,300
-[videocall line ringing]
-[Diana] You can do this.
1044
00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:44,700
[Nowzaradan] Hello.
1045
00:54:44,767 --> 00:54:45,867
Hello.
1046
00:54:45,967 --> 00:54:47,312
How are you doing today?
1047
00:54:47,312 --> 00:54:47,700
How are you doing today?
1048
00:54:47,767 --> 00:54:49,700
-I'm doing good.
- All right.
1049
00:54:49,767 --> 00:54:51,867
Then, Stephanie,
it's been a long time,
1050
00:54:51,967 --> 00:54:54,200
and we tried to call you
several times
1051
00:54:54,266 --> 00:54:56,700
and never got the answers.
1052
00:54:56,767 --> 00:54:58,800
So, what's going on with you?
1053
00:54:58,867 --> 00:55:01,567
A... A lot. I had...
My phone broke.
1054
00:55:01,567 --> 00:55:03,767
So, I didn't have a phone
for a while.
1055
00:55:03,867 --> 00:55:07,800
But I've been doing everything
I can to lose the weight,
1056
00:55:07,867 --> 00:55:09,700
to get out and do more things.
1057
00:55:09,767 --> 00:55:11,767
You feel like you lost
any weight?
1058
00:55:11,867 --> 00:55:12,967
Ah, yes.
1059
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:16,367
I actually went to the doctor
about two weeks ago
1060
00:55:16,367 --> 00:55:17,312
and he weighed me
and I was down a quite
a bit of weight.
1061
00:55:17,312 --> 00:55:21,700
and he weighed me
and I was down a quite
a bit of weight.
1062
00:55:21,767 --> 00:55:23,467
So, what was your weight?
1063
00:55:23,567 --> 00:55:26,066
When I went to see him,
it was 530.
1064
00:55:26,066 --> 00:55:29,967
Okay. So what changes
you made with your diet?
1065
00:55:29,967 --> 00:55:33,467
Um, I've been following
your book pretty good.
1066
00:55:33,467 --> 00:55:38,166
I've been lowering the calorie
count, more water.
1067
00:55:38,266 --> 00:55:40,867
I've been trying to move
around more and do exercises.
1068
00:55:42,100 --> 00:55:44,767
Well, my diet will put you
on your loss
1069
00:55:44,767 --> 00:55:47,312
if you crack with that
50 pounds in five months,
that's a 10 pound a month.
1070
00:55:47,312 --> 00:55:50,567
if you crack with that
50 pounds in five months,
that's a 10 pound a month.
1071
00:55:50,567 --> 00:55:55,600
If you follow the book,
you should lose
a whole lot more than that.
1072
00:55:56,900 --> 00:55:58,667
- So, what's going on?
-I'm... I'm trying.
1073
00:55:58,767 --> 00:56:00,200
I'm trying. I did...
1074
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:03,900
I did end up getting sick
for a few weeks there
with COVID.
1075
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:06,000
So that put me back
a little bit.
1076
00:56:06,100 --> 00:56:08,567
Well, but that's only about
a couple of weeks,
1077
00:56:08,667 --> 00:56:11,567
it's not five month.
1078
00:56:11,667 --> 00:56:16,100
So even if you get sick
with COVID, you lose
more weight.
1079
00:56:16,166 --> 00:56:17,312
So, what's going on
with your eating habit?
1080
00:56:17,312 --> 00:56:18,467
So, what's going on
with your eating habit?
1081
00:56:18,467 --> 00:56:19,600
[Stephanie] Um, it's changed.
1082
00:56:19,667 --> 00:56:22,667
I mean, not as much
as it probably should,
1083
00:56:22,767 --> 00:56:24,367
but I've cut back a lot.
1084
00:56:24,467 --> 00:56:27,166
I've changed a lot.
I don't eat as much
as I used to.
1085
00:56:28,900 --> 00:56:30,500
I mean, I could probably
exercise more,
1086
00:56:30,567 --> 00:56:34,867
but I do have the issue
with the ball between my legs
1087
00:56:34,867 --> 00:56:36,967
to make it hard to walk.
1088
00:56:36,967 --> 00:56:39,800
But I do...
I do try other exercises.
1089
00:56:39,867 --> 00:56:41,767
[Nowzaradan] All right.
But how are we doing
1090
00:56:41,767 --> 00:56:47,166
with the committing
to our program and come
and see us?
1091
00:56:47,266 --> 00:56:47,312
- What's going on with that?
-[Stephanie] Um, I'm...
1092
00:56:47,312 --> 00:56:49,400
- What's going on with that?
-[Stephanie] Um, I'm...
1093
00:56:49,467 --> 00:56:52,000
I'm ready to come see you,
I think.
1094
00:56:52,066 --> 00:56:53,767
-I'm not sure
of the exact day.
- Well, then...
1095
00:56:53,767 --> 00:56:56,567
then sure got
you live so far.
1096
00:56:56,667 --> 00:56:57,867
I don't want you to drive
1097
00:56:57,867 --> 00:57:00,066
because that's gonna take
a long time.
1098
00:57:00,066 --> 00:57:02,266
Is there any way
you can fly?
1099
00:57:02,367 --> 00:57:03,800
Ah, I think
that's that was the next step.
1100
00:57:03,867 --> 00:57:05,400
I think that's what
we're gonna do.
1101
00:57:05,467 --> 00:57:07,900
[Nowzaradan] Okay.
Well, here's the situation.
1102
00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:09,900
If you tell me
that you have lost weight
1103
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:11,867
and then make an appointment,
1104
00:57:11,867 --> 00:57:15,767
we'll see in Houston
and think about making
1105
00:57:15,867 --> 00:57:17,312
some changes to come
to Houston
1106
00:57:17,312 --> 00:57:17,467
some changes to come
to Houston
1107
00:57:17,567 --> 00:57:21,367
to either our program
and consider
weight loss surgery.
1108
00:57:21,367 --> 00:57:24,600
So that's gonna be the issue
that you need to work on it.
1109
00:57:24,667 --> 00:57:29,800
But moving out here doesn't
automatically approve you
for weight loss surgery.
1110
00:57:29,867 --> 00:57:32,166
You still gonna
have to demonstrate
1111
00:57:32,166 --> 00:57:37,867
that you are able to change
your way of eating
and lose weight and...
1112
00:57:37,967 --> 00:57:40,066
and be proactive with that.
1113
00:57:40,066 --> 00:57:43,166
And that's gonna be something
that you're gonna have
to demonstrate.
1114
00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:46,567
- Okay?
-Okay.
1115
00:57:46,567 --> 00:57:47,312
[Nowzaradan] So, tuck down
your eating habit
1116
00:57:47,312 --> 00:57:48,700
[Nowzaradan] So, tuck down
your eating habit
1117
00:57:48,767 --> 00:57:51,166
and come down
as soon as you can
1118
00:57:51,266 --> 00:57:57,266
and bring your son
so we can have a plan
for the whole family
1119
00:57:57,266 --> 00:58:00,066
and see if we can make it
very healthy.
1120
00:58:00,066 --> 00:58:02,000
-Okay.
-[Nowzaradan] Okay?
1121
00:58:02,100 --> 00:58:05,000
-Yep.
-[Nowzaradan] All right.
Well, nice to see you.
1122
00:58:05,100 --> 00:58:08,667
-You too.
-[Nowzaradan] And if you need
anything, give me a call.
1123
00:58:08,767 --> 00:58:12,767
I look forward to see you
in Houston. Okay?
1124
00:58:12,767 --> 00:58:14,100
Okay.
1125
00:58:14,166 --> 00:58:16,266
All right. Bye now.
1126
00:58:16,266 --> 00:58:17,312
[Stephanie] Bye.
1127
00:58:17,312 --> 00:58:17,467
[Stephanie] Bye.
1128
00:58:23,567 --> 00:58:25,166
-We'll get it down.
-I know.
1129
00:58:26,066 --> 00:58:27,266
Yeah.
1130
00:58:29,467 --> 00:58:30,767
We'll get through it.
1131
00:58:31,867 --> 00:58:33,166
[Diana] You'll do it.
1132
00:58:47,667 --> 00:58:49,000
Take backseats?
1133
00:58:49,066 --> 00:58:50,300
Yep.
1134
00:58:51,667 --> 00:58:53,667
Oh, snap.
1135
00:58:53,667 --> 00:58:56,066
I'm heading to Houston today.
1136
00:58:56,066 --> 00:58:58,600
My son got sick,
so he can't come.
1137
00:58:58,667 --> 00:59:01,100
But my mom is taking care
of everyone.
1138
00:59:01,166 --> 00:59:05,000
She finally feels well enough
to watch the younger kids
on her own.
1139
00:59:05,066 --> 00:59:06,567
-Ready?
-Set.
1140
00:59:06,567 --> 00:59:08,266
-Ooh.
-Up.
1141
00:59:08,266 --> 00:59:10,800
[Stephanie] So, my stepdad
stepped up to help me
get there.
1142
00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:14,600
You got it?
1143
00:59:14,667 --> 00:59:17,312
[Stephanie] I have
an appointment with Doctor Now
later on today.
1144
00:59:17,312 --> 00:59:17,467
[Stephanie] I have
an appointment with Doctor Now
later on today.
1145
00:59:17,567 --> 00:59:19,100
So, we had to get
on the plane
1146
00:59:19,166 --> 00:59:20,867
'cause we didn't have
enough time to drive.
1147
00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:24,900
I don't think I can handle
six days on the road anyway.
1148
00:59:27,467 --> 00:59:29,800
I'm really nervous about
how this is gonna go.
1149
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:35,667
We're gonna get there
and go straight to his office.
1150
00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:39,266
Start to get more nervous
about it.
1151
00:59:40,467 --> 00:59:42,767
I haven't been on an airplane
in a while,
1152
00:59:42,867 --> 00:59:44,467
especially not at the size
I'm at.
1153
00:59:44,467 --> 00:59:45,967
I mean, I had...
I had trouble back
1154
00:59:45,967 --> 00:59:47,200
then sitting in the airplane,
1155
00:59:47,266 --> 00:59:47,312
but I did have to buy
two seats.
1156
00:59:47,312 --> 00:59:50,767
but I did have to buy
two seats.
1157
00:59:50,767 --> 00:59:53,300
And you do have...
you have to do that now.
1158
00:59:53,367 --> 00:59:55,867
It'd be, you know, awesome
to be able to go back
1159
00:59:55,967 --> 00:59:58,266
to not having to purchase
two seats again.
1160
01:00:20,300 --> 01:00:21,900
Oh, man, this is brutal.
1161
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:29,066
I do have a hard time
with people staring
at me or judging me.
1162
01:00:29,066 --> 01:00:31,100
And it's... it's difficult.
1163
01:00:31,166 --> 01:00:34,967
To me it feels very degrading
to get stared at or, you know,
1164
01:00:34,967 --> 01:00:36,967
somebody make
a rude comment about me.
1165
01:00:40,100 --> 01:00:41,667
We can do this.
I got this.
1166
01:00:51,500 --> 01:00:54,000
But like, how am I gonna
actually do this?
1167
01:01:00,100 --> 01:01:02,000
I just hope
I can fit in the seat.
1168
01:01:12,166 --> 01:01:13,266
Okay. These ones.
1169
01:01:16,967 --> 01:01:17,312
They knocked them up.
1170
01:01:17,312 --> 01:01:18,100
They knocked them up.
1171
01:01:18,166 --> 01:01:19,567
[woman] Not that first one.
1172
01:01:27,567 --> 01:01:29,400
[grunting]
1173
01:01:36,300 --> 01:01:37,967
[Stephanie] I have a seatbelt
just under.
1174
01:01:45,266 --> 01:01:46,667
And I am wiped out.
1175
01:01:50,300 --> 01:01:52,600
It's pinching me on the sides,
1176
01:01:52,667 --> 01:01:55,700
but at least I can just try
to fall asleep.
1177
01:01:55,767 --> 01:01:58,667
This is going to be
a four and a half hour flight.
1178
01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:03,567
So, I know I can do it.
1179
01:02:03,567 --> 01:02:05,500
It's just...
1180
01:02:05,567 --> 01:02:07,767
if it gets too painful,
what am I gonna do?
1181
01:02:22,867 --> 01:02:24,667
Tired, sore...
1182
01:02:26,667 --> 01:02:27,867
hot.
1183
01:02:27,867 --> 01:02:31,800
We just did
very long flight...
1184
01:02:33,100 --> 01:02:35,500
from my home
to see Doctor Now.
1185
01:02:35,567 --> 01:02:38,400
I'm always worried about
how he's gonna react.
1186
01:02:38,467 --> 01:02:42,228
I get, you know,
very depressed
if it negative news,
1187
01:02:42,228 --> 01:02:43,667
I get, you know,
very depressed
if it negative news,
1188
01:02:43,767 --> 01:02:45,266
and I just don't want
that to happen.
1189
01:02:45,367 --> 01:02:46,767
I've never been
in this situation.
1190
01:02:46,767 --> 01:02:49,100
So yeah, definitely nervous.
1191
01:02:50,600 --> 01:02:51,867
I could do it.
I got this.
1192
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:57,567
[Martin] There it is, that.
1193
01:02:57,567 --> 01:03:00,467
Yeah. Here we are.
See how this is gonna go.
1194
01:03:09,500 --> 01:03:12,228
All this traveling is harder
on me than I thought.
1195
01:03:12,228 --> 01:03:12,367
All this traveling is harder
on me than I thought.
1196
01:03:12,467 --> 01:03:14,767
I'm not sure
I can keep doing it.
1197
01:03:14,867 --> 01:03:18,500
But I'm glad to finally
be back to see Doctor Now.
1198
01:03:18,567 --> 01:03:21,500
And I really hope
all my hard work will pay off
1199
01:03:21,567 --> 01:03:23,700
and I'll be able to get
weight loss surgery.
1200
01:03:28,767 --> 01:03:30,000
If I don't get approved,
1201
01:03:30,100 --> 01:03:32,800
it's going to mean
all the months of hard work
1202
01:03:32,867 --> 01:03:37,467
and sticking to it
and going through all this
has been for nothing.
1203
01:03:37,467 --> 01:03:39,867
So, I really just need to get
the weight loss surgery.
1204
01:03:44,066 --> 01:03:46,000
Okay.
1205
01:03:46,066 --> 01:03:47,400
I want to get out
of the wheelchair.
1206
01:03:47,467 --> 01:03:48,567
All right.
1207
01:03:48,667 --> 01:03:50,400
We don't need it now
that we're not at the airport.
1208
01:03:52,166 --> 01:03:55,600
I know I've lost, but I just
don't know how much.
1209
01:03:55,667 --> 01:03:57,266
I just hope it's enough.
1210
01:03:59,367 --> 01:04:00,500
[Martin] Oh, I hate it...
1211
01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:03,767
Stephanie.
1212
01:04:03,867 --> 01:04:05,800
[Stephanie] Last time
I was at 611
1213
01:04:05,867 --> 01:04:09,767
and Doctor Now gave me
a goal of losing 50 pounds
in two months.
1214
01:04:10,767 --> 01:04:12,228
I know it's been longer
than that,
1215
01:04:12,228 --> 01:04:12,300
I know it's been longer
than that,
1216
01:04:12,367 --> 01:04:14,800
but I'm hoping
if I hit my original goal,
1217
01:04:14,867 --> 01:04:16,767
he'll be happy enough
to move forward with me.
1218
01:04:16,767 --> 01:04:19,100
[woman] just step up
on the scale.
1219
01:04:19,166 --> 01:04:22,000
[Stephanie] So, to hit that
number, I have to be 561.
1220
01:04:38,967 --> 01:04:40,467
-Five, four.
-Yes.
1221
01:04:40,567 --> 01:04:42,228
[Stephanie] What?
1222
01:04:42,228 --> 01:04:42,266
[Stephanie] What?
1223
01:04:42,266 --> 01:04:44,100
How did that happen?
1224
01:04:44,166 --> 01:04:46,700
Why would my weight
be that high?
1225
01:04:46,767 --> 01:04:48,867
It doesn't make sense
with how hard I worked.
1226
01:04:55,867 --> 01:04:57,100
I hate this.
1227
01:05:05,967 --> 01:05:07,266
Hello. How y'all doing?
1228
01:05:07,266 --> 01:05:09,367
-[Stephanie] Hi. Good.
-[Martin] Good.
1229
01:05:09,467 --> 01:05:12,228
Well, Stephanie,
it's been five months
1230
01:05:12,228 --> 01:05:12,567
Well, Stephanie,
it's been five months
1231
01:05:12,567 --> 01:05:15,700
since I saw you last
and made several phone calls.
1232
01:05:15,767 --> 01:05:17,867
You never answered them.
1233
01:05:17,967 --> 01:05:20,266
So, what is going on with you?
1234
01:05:21,367 --> 01:05:24,667
I just dealing
with my kid's schools
1235
01:05:24,767 --> 01:05:28,367
and I had gotten sick
for a few weeks with COVID
and then...
1236
01:05:28,467 --> 01:05:30,867
-Okay.
-That's your five months?
1237
01:05:30,967 --> 01:05:33,266
No, I was dealing
with my kids in school
1238
01:05:33,367 --> 01:05:37,400
and my oldest son
having some medical issues
of his own.
1239
01:05:37,467 --> 01:05:38,800
Well...
1240
01:05:38,867 --> 01:05:40,867
So, what was your intention
1241
01:05:40,967 --> 01:05:42,228
when you last came
in five months ago
to lose weight?
1242
01:05:42,228 --> 01:05:45,000
when you last came
in five months ago
to lose weight?
1243
01:05:46,166 --> 01:05:48,000
I still want to.
It's why I'm here.
1244
01:05:48,066 --> 01:05:50,266
I want to continue doing that.
1245
01:05:50,367 --> 01:05:52,667
I can lose 10 pounds
in one week.
1246
01:05:54,667 --> 01:05:55,800
Okay.
1247
01:05:55,867 --> 01:05:59,867
So, this is the situation
that related to the food.
1248
01:05:59,967 --> 01:06:02,567
There's no other factor
that control her weight
1249
01:06:02,667 --> 01:06:04,467
beside whatever you eat.
1250
01:06:04,467 --> 01:06:07,300
And the question is,
is she manipulating you
1251
01:06:07,367 --> 01:06:09,567
to bring in more food
and all that?
1252
01:06:09,667 --> 01:06:10,867
No.
1253
01:06:10,967 --> 01:06:12,228
So you are just bringing her
more than she need?
1254
01:06:12,228 --> 01:06:14,700
So you are just bringing her
more than she need?
1255
01:06:14,767 --> 01:06:16,800
Um, actually,
I haven't been doing that
1256
01:06:16,867 --> 01:06:19,100
since the last time
I spoke to you.
1257
01:06:19,166 --> 01:06:21,667
We've actually
been trying to cut back
1258
01:06:21,667 --> 01:06:22,967
on a lot of things.
1259
01:06:22,967 --> 01:06:25,166
It's been hard,
but I'm working on it.
1260
01:06:25,166 --> 01:06:28,600
Um, there are issues
that you need to understand.
1261
01:06:28,667 --> 01:06:32,000
There's nothing justify you
to overeat.
1262
01:06:32,066 --> 01:06:36,166
And if you've got any issues
that we have difficulty
in mobility,
1263
01:06:36,166 --> 01:06:40,166
that should be remind you
to cut back on your eating.
1264
01:06:40,166 --> 01:06:42,228
Okay. So, are you serious
about making the changes?
1265
01:06:42,228 --> 01:06:44,000
Okay. So, are you serious
about making the changes?
1266
01:06:44,066 --> 01:06:45,066
Yes.
1267
01:06:45,066 --> 01:06:47,600
Well, if you continue
with the same thing,
1268
01:06:47,667 --> 01:06:51,767
that's gonna be very difficult
for you to lose weight.
1269
01:06:52,700 --> 01:06:54,667
Even if you lose
10 pound a month,
1270
01:06:54,667 --> 01:06:58,100
-it's gonna take two years
to get there.
-Right.
1271
01:06:58,166 --> 01:07:00,567
[Nowzaradan] So what changes
you're willing to make now?
1272
01:07:01,867 --> 01:07:03,467
I'm just gonna
reevaluate everything,
1273
01:07:03,567 --> 01:07:06,467
read the book better
and weigh...
1274
01:07:07,767 --> 01:07:10,567
weigh the food,
do more portion control.
1275
01:07:12,100 --> 01:07:12,228
So how long will it take you
to understand that
you're overeating?
1276
01:07:12,228 --> 01:07:15,467
So how long will it take you
to understand that
you're overeating?
1277
01:07:16,200 --> 01:07:17,500
Oh, I understand.
I'm overeating.
1278
01:07:17,567 --> 01:07:20,500
I just need to stop
is the thing.
1279
01:07:20,567 --> 01:07:22,000
[Nowzaradan]
So, it should be easy
1280
01:07:22,100 --> 01:07:24,266
for you to lose 50 pounds
in two months.
1281
01:07:24,367 --> 01:07:25,734
Okay.
1282
01:07:25,734 --> 01:07:27,567
[Nowzaradan] If you do that,
then we're gonna work
with you.
1283
01:07:27,567 --> 01:07:29,200
If you're not able to do that,
1284
01:07:29,266 --> 01:07:31,367
then there's no point there
for you
1285
01:07:31,367 --> 01:07:33,100
to making the trip
coming down here.
1286
01:07:33,166 --> 01:07:34,266
-Right.
-[Nowzaradan] Okay.
1287
01:07:34,266 --> 01:07:36,367
'Cause that's not gonna be
a productive for you.
1288
01:07:36,467 --> 01:07:37,800
Then if you lose that,
1289
01:07:37,800 --> 01:07:40,900
then we're gonna have
to thinking of moving down
to Houston
1290
01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:42,228
if you're considering
weight loss surgery.
1291
01:07:42,228 --> 01:07:42,400
if you're considering
weight loss surgery.
1292
01:07:42,467 --> 01:07:43,600
Okay.
1293
01:07:43,667 --> 01:07:45,867
And the question is,
do you think
you can do that?
1294
01:07:46,900 --> 01:07:48,367
That's what I'm working
on right now.
1295
01:07:49,667 --> 01:07:50,767
Okay.
1296
01:07:50,767 --> 01:07:52,967
And so, this time
your son is sick.
1297
01:07:52,967 --> 01:07:56,266
But if you come back
and you think
he can come with you.
1298
01:07:56,266 --> 01:07:57,467
I'll bring him.
1299
01:07:57,467 --> 01:07:58,667
Okay.
1300
01:07:58,667 --> 01:08:01,700
So, it is gonna be something
that we can try to work
1301
01:08:01,767 --> 01:08:04,367
with both of you to make you
healthy and do that.
1302
01:08:04,467 --> 01:08:05,500
-Okay.
-[Nowzaradan] Okay?
1303
01:08:05,567 --> 01:08:07,900
-Okay.
-So, stick with your diet
1304
01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:10,467
and lose 50 pounds
in two months.
1305
01:08:10,467 --> 01:08:12,228
And if you need anything,
give me a call.
1306
01:08:12,228 --> 01:08:12,600
And if you need anything,
give me a call.
1307
01:08:12,667 --> 01:08:13,767
-Okay.
-[Nowzaradan] Okay?
1308
01:08:13,767 --> 01:08:15,000
-Yes.
-All right.
1309
01:08:15,066 --> 01:08:17,700
I wish you good luck
and have a safe trip
back home.
1310
01:08:17,767 --> 01:08:18,900
-All right. Thank you.
-Thank you.
1311
01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:20,266
[Nowzaradan] All right.
1312
01:08:26,166 --> 01:08:28,266
Man's intense.
1313
01:08:28,266 --> 01:08:29,567
[Nowzaradan] It is clear to me
1314
01:08:29,567 --> 01:08:32,467
that Stephanie
doesn't have much desire
1315
01:08:32,467 --> 01:08:36,467
to take responsibility
for her life
and her situation.
1316
01:08:36,467 --> 01:08:39,100
She liked to say
that she's ready to change
1317
01:08:39,166 --> 01:08:42,228
and do what she needs,
but that's just part
of the game she plays.
1318
01:08:42,228 --> 01:08:43,800
and do what she needs,
but that's just part
of the game she plays.
1319
01:08:43,867 --> 01:08:46,667
It's her way
to convince everyone
1320
01:08:46,667 --> 01:08:48,400
that she has tried everything.
1321
01:08:48,467 --> 01:08:51,500
And then when nothing
in her life changes,
1322
01:08:51,567 --> 01:08:56,867
she wants everyone to think
that she is a victim
of unfair situation.
1323
01:08:56,867 --> 01:08:58,500
So, it's not her fault.
1324
01:08:58,567 --> 01:09:03,000
That's how she manipulates
her family and
she does it well.
1325
01:09:03,066 --> 01:09:05,567
The only thing
that is gonna convince me
1326
01:09:05,667 --> 01:09:09,000
she's serious is the number
of the scale going down.
1327
01:09:09,066 --> 01:09:11,800
But I'm skeptical
that's gonna happen
1328
01:09:11,867 --> 01:09:12,228
because at this point,
1329
01:09:12,228 --> 01:09:13,166
because at this point,
1330
01:09:13,166 --> 01:09:16,767
Stephanie seems to have
a strong hold on the family.
1331
01:09:18,767 --> 01:09:19,800
I've done a lot to get here.
1332
01:09:19,867 --> 01:09:22,166
I mean, I've had to change
a lot of schedules.
1333
01:09:22,266 --> 01:09:24,767
I had to leave my kids
with my mom.
1334
01:09:26,066 --> 01:09:29,467
And it's we went through
a lot to get here
1335
01:09:29,467 --> 01:09:31,400
to just to get
through the planes.
1336
01:09:34,166 --> 01:09:36,100
And now I don't even know
if it's worth it.
1337
01:09:41,867 --> 01:09:42,228
But if I don't get
the surgery soon,
1338
01:09:42,228 --> 01:09:43,467
But if I don't get
the surgery soon,
1339
01:09:43,567 --> 01:09:45,100
I'm not sure
what I'm gonna do.
1340
01:09:51,667 --> 01:09:53,567
So, the next time
has to be better.
1341
01:10:06,667 --> 01:10:08,000
Still makes me nervous.
1342
01:10:09,266 --> 01:10:11,567
I don't like going out places.
1343
01:10:11,667 --> 01:10:12,967
[Diana] True. I know, right?
1344
01:10:12,967 --> 01:10:15,000
That's the painful,
painful part.
1345
01:10:15,100 --> 01:10:16,100
Getting in there.
1346
01:10:16,166 --> 01:10:17,266
[Stephanie] Yeah.
1347
01:10:17,266 --> 01:10:18,667
It's gonna suck.
1348
01:10:21,100 --> 01:10:24,700
Last time I saw Doctor Now
I was a little bit upset.
1349
01:10:24,767 --> 01:10:28,166
But after I got home
and had a few days
to think about it,
1350
01:10:28,166 --> 01:10:30,112
I decided that I'm going
to work harder than ever.
1351
01:10:30,112 --> 01:10:31,000
I decided that I'm going
to work harder than ever.
1352
01:10:31,066 --> 01:10:34,000
So, I joined a gym
and it's hard to do
the workouts,
1353
01:10:34,100 --> 01:10:36,900
but after I've done them,
I feel better.
1354
01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:39,367
You want me to open
that back door for you?
1355
01:10:39,367 --> 01:10:40,467
[Diana] Yeah.
1356
01:10:57,467 --> 01:10:58,600
Is it fat friendly?
1357
01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:04,500
[bleep]
1358
01:11:04,567 --> 01:11:05,600
What is my...
Well, come on.
1359
01:11:06,867 --> 01:11:08,166
[Diana] So, let's get...
1360
01:11:08,166 --> 01:11:09,567
[grunting]
1361
01:11:11,867 --> 01:11:13,266
Ooh.
1362
01:11:14,266 --> 01:11:16,100
Shi... yes.
1363
01:11:16,166 --> 01:11:17,867
[Diana laughs]
1364
01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:24,867
[Diana] Did it get stuck
in your hair?
1365
01:11:26,066 --> 01:11:27,300
[grunting]
1366
01:11:30,467 --> 01:11:32,100
He can pull this one, too.
1367
01:11:56,100 --> 01:11:57,266
All right.
1368
01:11:59,900 --> 01:12:00,112
I don't trust this bench.
1369
01:12:00,112 --> 01:12:01,166
I don't trust this bench.
1370
01:12:08,567 --> 01:12:10,066
[Diana] Is that one okay?
1371
01:12:10,066 --> 01:12:12,400
-Huh?
-[Diana] The... in...
1372
01:12:12,467 --> 01:12:13,767
I've never used
one of these.
1373
01:12:20,700 --> 01:12:22,667
[Diana] Okay. Feel the burn.
1374
01:12:22,767 --> 01:12:24,467
-Hmm?
-[Diana] Feel the burn.
1375
01:12:28,567 --> 01:12:29,634
Do I do this out to the side?
1376
01:12:29,667 --> 01:12:30,112
[Diana] That one can also pass
around like this,
1377
01:12:30,112 --> 01:12:31,600
[Diana] That one can also pass
around like this,
1378
01:12:31,667 --> 01:12:33,467
around you to your backside.
1379
01:12:33,567 --> 01:12:34,967
Couldn't.
1380
01:12:34,967 --> 01:12:36,400
[Dian] That doesn't work?
1381
01:12:36,467 --> 01:12:37,767
-No.
-[Diana] Ah.
1382
01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:44,266
I've never pushed myself
this hard before.
1383
01:12:45,200 --> 01:12:47,600
It's hot. It's sweaty.
1384
01:12:47,667 --> 01:12:49,767
But I know it...
it'll benefit me in the end.
1385
01:12:49,867 --> 01:12:51,600
It moves muscles that
I'm not used to moving.
1386
01:12:51,667 --> 01:12:53,400
I'd love to come
to the gym more.
1387
01:12:53,467 --> 01:12:55,467
That's one of my goals,
is to be able to actually
1388
01:12:55,467 --> 01:12:57,367
be comfortable
coming to the gym.
1389
01:12:57,467 --> 01:12:59,467
[Diana] Are you feeling it?
How's it going?
1390
01:12:59,467 --> 01:13:00,112
-It's burning.
-[Diana] It's burning?
1391
01:13:00,112 --> 01:13:01,000
-It's burning.
-[Diana] It's burning?
1392
01:13:01,066 --> 01:13:02,200
I'm sweating.
1393
01:13:02,266 --> 01:13:03,300
[Diana] That means
it's working.
1394
01:13:03,367 --> 01:13:04,700
And I'm done.
1395
01:13:04,767 --> 01:13:06,166
-[Diana] Huh?
-I'm done.
1396
01:13:07,467 --> 01:13:08,900
-[Diana] Y'all done?
-Yeah. You ready to go?
1397
01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:11,000
[Diana] Yeah. That's a good
workout for today.
1398
01:13:12,100 --> 01:13:14,166
Oh, my ball's stuck.
My ball's stuck.
1399
01:13:15,967 --> 01:13:18,166
You did good.
You did a lot.
1400
01:13:18,166 --> 01:13:19,467
[Stephanie] It's true
what they say.
1401
01:13:19,467 --> 01:13:21,166
You feel better
after you do it.
1402
01:13:21,166 --> 01:13:23,000
And I know
how important it is.
1403
01:13:25,166 --> 01:13:26,667
I really want that surgery.
1404
01:13:26,667 --> 01:13:28,467
So that's what's
motivating me.
1405
01:13:28,567 --> 01:13:30,112
Not just for me,
but for my whole family.
1406
01:13:30,112 --> 01:13:31,367
Not just for me,
but for my whole family.
1407
01:13:31,367 --> 01:13:34,467
I really feel like I'm turning
over a new leaf this time.
1408
01:13:34,567 --> 01:13:37,300
That's going to be the thing
that makes the difference.
1409
01:13:37,367 --> 01:13:39,567
-This other one over?
-[Diana] Yeah.
1410
01:14:01,266 --> 01:14:02,967
-No, I don't need
that one today.
-Nope.
1411
01:14:07,867 --> 01:14:10,000
-You ready?
-Nope.
1412
01:14:10,066 --> 01:14:12,667
-Ready's over me.
-[Martin] Yeah.
1413
01:14:12,767 --> 01:14:15,300
[Stephanie] We're back
in Houston
for my next weigh in.
1414
01:14:15,367 --> 01:14:17,567
The travel was a little bit
easier this time,
1415
01:14:17,567 --> 01:14:19,867
but it was still
pretty painful.
1416
01:14:19,867 --> 01:14:22,266
I just hope that
all the hard work
I've been doing
1417
01:14:22,367 --> 01:14:24,100
is finally enough to pay off.
1418
01:14:34,100 --> 01:14:35,200
Stephanie.
1419
01:14:37,467 --> 01:14:38,667
[Stephanie]
At my last appointment,
1420
01:14:38,767 --> 01:14:40,600
I was 602 pounds.
1421
01:14:40,667 --> 01:14:44,500
Doctor now gave me
a goal of losing 50 pounds
in two months.
1422
01:14:44,567 --> 01:14:48,266
So, if I did that today,
I would be down
to 552 pounds.
1423
01:14:55,667 --> 01:14:57,266
[woman] You want to step up
on the scale?
1424
01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:20,066
Hmm.
1425
01:15:21,000 --> 01:15:22,900
Could have done better.
1426
01:15:23,000 --> 01:15:25,367
[Martin] I don't understand.
You've changed everything.
1427
01:15:25,467 --> 01:15:27,100
[woman] Okay, we're going
to room five.
1428
01:15:27,166 --> 01:15:28,367
Okay.
1429
01:15:32,900 --> 01:15:34,467
That's really disappointing.
1430
01:15:35,700 --> 01:15:37,367
I don't even know what to say.
1431
01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:40,867
I mean, sure, I lost weight,
so that's good.
1432
01:15:40,867 --> 01:15:44,500
But, you know, Doctor Now
is not gonna see it that way.
1433
01:15:44,567 --> 01:15:47,767
I just don't understand
because of how hard
I've been working.
1434
01:15:47,767 --> 01:15:49,467
It doesn't make sense.
1435
01:15:49,567 --> 01:15:51,800
It feels like
something must be wrong
1436
01:15:51,867 --> 01:15:53,367
because this doesn't add up.
1437
01:15:57,266 --> 01:15:59,600
I didn't lose
what I wanted to.
1438
01:15:59,667 --> 01:16:00,112
[Martin] I don't know,
why not? You tried it.
1439
01:16:00,112 --> 01:16:02,867
[Martin] I don't know,
why not? You tried it.
1440
01:16:02,867 --> 01:16:04,200
I guess it's not good enough.
1441
01:16:06,367 --> 01:16:07,867
You got to figure out
what I'm doing wrong.
1442
01:16:12,300 --> 01:16:13,667
-Hello.
-[Stephanie] Hello.
1443
01:16:13,667 --> 01:16:15,967
-How y'all doing?
-[Stephanie] Okay.
1444
01:16:15,967 --> 01:16:18,166
How was that trip down here?
1445
01:16:18,266 --> 01:16:21,400
It was long, exhausting.
Painful.
1446
01:16:21,467 --> 01:16:23,767
So, it was easier
than last time.
1447
01:16:25,600 --> 01:16:28,300
Ah, kind of.
It was shorter.
1448
01:16:28,367 --> 01:16:29,667
So, you fly?
1449
01:16:29,767 --> 01:16:30,112
[Stephanie] Yes, we flew.
1450
01:16:30,112 --> 01:16:30,900
[Stephanie] Yes, we flew.
1451
01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:32,800
[Nowzaradan] How long
a flight is that?
1452
01:16:32,867 --> 01:16:35,300
How long did we fly?
I think it was 4 hours.
1453
01:16:35,367 --> 01:16:36,700
[Martin] Four hours.
1454
01:16:36,767 --> 01:16:38,467
A little over
four hours, total.
1455
01:16:39,467 --> 01:16:41,266
Okay. All right.
1456
01:16:41,266 --> 01:16:44,900
So, what's going on with you
and your eating habit?
1457
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:46,800
Um, I'm trying.
1458
01:16:46,867 --> 01:16:49,767
I've been trying new things,
new healthier options.
1459
01:16:50,700 --> 01:16:52,400
I think I'm still slipping up
a little bit,
1460
01:16:52,467 --> 01:16:53,900
but I've been trying.
1461
01:16:53,967 --> 01:16:56,166
[Nowzaradan] I mean,
you haven't lost much
weight this time, huh?
1462
01:16:56,166 --> 01:16:58,800
-No.
-I'm... I'm disappointed
in myself for that.
1463
01:17:00,066 --> 01:17:00,112
[Nowzaradan] So,
what's going on with that?
1464
01:17:00,112 --> 01:17:02,000
[Nowzaradan] So,
what's going on with that?
1465
01:17:02,066 --> 01:17:03,300
[Stephanie] I'm not sure.
1466
01:17:03,367 --> 01:17:06,467
I mean, I'm trying to do,
you know the best I can.
1467
01:17:08,100 --> 01:17:09,567
[Nowzaradan]
And we haven't done anything
1468
01:17:09,667 --> 01:17:11,900
to move down
to Houston either.
1469
01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:13,200
No, I'm working on that.
1470
01:17:13,266 --> 01:17:15,767
I have to make phone calls
and stuff.
1471
01:17:15,767 --> 01:17:19,767
At this point on right there
on this trip
you're making down here,
1472
01:17:19,767 --> 01:17:21,567
I feel like you really,
you know,
1473
01:17:21,667 --> 01:17:24,867
aren't serious about
changing your life.
1474
01:17:24,867 --> 01:17:29,467
So, you know, you need
to get your line of thinking
to the point that,
1475
01:17:29,567 --> 01:17:30,112
hey, I'm gonna do this,
1476
01:17:30,112 --> 01:17:31,367
hey, I'm gonna do this,
1477
01:17:31,467 --> 01:17:34,166
and it's my responsibility
to do that
1478
01:17:34,166 --> 01:17:37,266
and not to expect that
you come here and make
you lose weight.
1479
01:17:37,367 --> 01:17:38,367
All right.
1480
01:17:38,467 --> 01:17:41,567
And you know,
it really after all this time,
1481
01:17:41,567 --> 01:17:45,867
I think this is your really
last chance
to make the changes
1482
01:17:45,967 --> 01:17:50,166
and show your commitment
to your health
and your future.
1483
01:17:50,166 --> 01:17:53,200
What I want to do
is make arrangements for you
1484
01:17:53,266 --> 01:17:55,967
to see a local clinic
when you go there
1485
01:17:55,967 --> 01:17:58,900
and check your weight and see
what your progress is doing.
1486
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:00,112
I'm gonna set you another goal
of losing 50 pounds
in the next two months,
1487
01:18:00,112 --> 01:18:04,400
I'm gonna set you another goal
of losing 50 pounds
in the next two months,
1488
01:18:04,467 --> 01:18:06,867
and if you make progress
in the future,
1489
01:18:06,967 --> 01:18:09,767
then we can consider it
moving to Houston.
1490
01:18:09,867 --> 01:18:13,967
But at this point, seems
like a far away
from weight loss surgery.
1491
01:18:13,967 --> 01:18:15,100
-Okay?
-[Stephanie] Yeah.
1492
01:18:15,166 --> 01:18:16,400
[Nowzaradan]
So, in the meantime,
1493
01:18:16,400 --> 01:18:18,867
if you need any help
or anything else,
give me a call.
1494
01:18:18,967 --> 01:18:20,266
-[Stephanie] Okay.
-[Nowzaradan] Okay?
1495
01:18:20,266 --> 01:18:21,800
-All right.
-[Stephanie] Bye.
1496
01:18:29,166 --> 01:18:30,112
[Nowzaradan] It is unfortunate
that it looks like
a dysfunctional cycle,
1497
01:18:30,112 --> 01:18:33,467
[Nowzaradan] It is unfortunate
that it looks like
a dysfunctional cycle,
1498
01:18:33,467 --> 01:18:35,867
which Stephanie has continued.
1499
01:18:35,967 --> 01:18:37,467
We are getting to a point
1500
01:18:37,467 --> 01:18:41,100
where it doesn't make much
sense to keep going like this.
1501
01:18:41,166 --> 01:18:44,467
If Stephanie is just going
to keep playing games.
1502
01:18:44,567 --> 01:18:48,166
So, she needs to start turning
things around this next time
1503
01:18:48,266 --> 01:18:50,467
or we're not gonna continue
with her.
1504
01:19:12,900 --> 01:19:13,967
-You...
-No.
1505
01:19:13,967 --> 01:19:15,467
I won't.
1506
01:19:17,166 --> 01:19:19,166
Drag it.
1507
01:19:32,467 --> 01:19:34,197
[Stephanie] After
my last appointment
with Doctor Now,
1508
01:19:34,197 --> 01:19:34,567
[Stephanie] After
my last appointment
with Doctor Now,
1509
01:19:34,667 --> 01:19:36,600
I got really discouraged.
1510
01:19:36,667 --> 01:19:38,900
It just doesn't make sense
1511
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:41,100
because I've been doing
everything to a tee.
1512
01:19:42,266 --> 01:19:44,867
It's hard to do all the work
and someone tells you
1513
01:19:44,867 --> 01:19:46,100
it's not enough.
1514
01:19:46,166 --> 01:19:48,400
It's just discouraging.
1515
01:19:48,467 --> 01:19:51,000
So, it really feels like
I've been treated unfairly.
1516
01:19:53,100 --> 01:19:56,367
I'm trying to stay motivated
and do everything
I'm supposed to.
1517
01:19:56,467 --> 01:19:57,867
Even though it's hard.
1518
01:19:59,266 --> 01:20:00,467
Sweet.
1519
01:20:04,800 --> 01:20:06,333
I'm coming.
1520
01:20:10,100 --> 01:20:12,600
So, at this point,
I don't even know
what I'm going to do.
1521
01:20:14,266 --> 01:20:15,367
[Diana giggles]
1522
01:20:15,467 --> 01:20:16,800
[laughs]
1523
01:20:18,266 --> 01:20:19,967
[Stephanie] I'm supposed
to go to the local clinic
1524
01:20:19,967 --> 01:20:21,166
to get my weight checked.
1525
01:20:21,166 --> 01:20:23,467
I don't want to do that,
but I'm scared.
1526
01:20:23,567 --> 01:20:24,767
If I don't do that,
1527
01:20:24,767 --> 01:20:27,266
then Doctor Now is not going
to work with me anymore.
1528
01:20:27,266 --> 01:20:29,100
And I really don't know
what to do about it.
1529
01:20:31,500 --> 01:20:33,166
You guys enjoy
your sandwiches?
1530
01:20:33,166 --> 01:20:34,197
Mm-hmm.
1531
01:20:34,197 --> 01:20:34,467
Mm-hmm.
1532
01:20:46,567 --> 01:20:47,867
[Nowzaradan]
For the last few months,
1533
01:20:47,867 --> 01:20:50,166
I haven't heard
from Stephanie.
1534
01:20:50,266 --> 01:20:54,467
She seemed to block me,
so I am unable to call her.
1535
01:20:54,467 --> 01:20:55,900
She missed the appointment
1536
01:20:56,000 --> 01:20:58,600
that we set up
at a local clinic,
1537
01:20:58,667 --> 01:21:02,266
so she likely didn't lose
any more weight.
1538
01:21:02,367 --> 01:21:04,197
So, at this point,
there is nothing more
we can do for her.
1539
01:21:04,197 --> 01:21:05,667
So, at this point,
there is nothing more
we can do for her.
1540
01:21:05,767 --> 01:21:11,900
I think the reality is that
Stephanie never intended to do
what she needed.
1541
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:15,266
Her plan was to put
forth minimal effort
1542
01:21:15,367 --> 01:21:19,266
and then tried
to make excuses
and manipulate me
1543
01:21:19,266 --> 01:21:22,567
to get what she wants like
she does with her family.
1544
01:21:22,567 --> 01:21:25,367
And now she's realizing
it's not gonna work,
1545
01:21:25,467 --> 01:21:27,500
so she's quitting.
1546
01:21:27,567 --> 01:21:30,800
It is unfortunate because
we have given her the tools
1547
01:21:30,867 --> 01:21:34,166
and opportunity
to turn her life around,
1548
01:21:34,266 --> 01:21:38,467
but in the end, she is just
looking for someone to come in
1549
01:21:38,567 --> 01:21:42,367
and solve her problem
and do the work for her
1550
01:21:42,367 --> 01:21:45,000
by giving her
weight loss surgery.
1551
01:21:45,100 --> 01:21:46,900
And that's not gonna happen.
1552
01:21:47,000 --> 01:21:49,567
But if she decides
at some point
1553
01:21:49,667 --> 01:21:52,567
to put forth the effort
she needs
1554
01:21:52,667 --> 01:21:55,567
and lose the weight to show me
she's serious,
1555
01:21:55,567 --> 01:21:58,166
we consider some options
for her then.
1556
01:21:58,166 --> 01:22:01,667
But at this point,
I don't think
that is very likely
1557
01:22:01,667 --> 01:22:04,197
unless something happens
to wake her up.
1558
01:22:04,197 --> 01:22:04,700
unless something happens
to wake her up.
1559
01:22:04,767 --> 01:22:06,567
So, I hope I'm wrong.
1560
01:22:06,667 --> 01:22:10,367
But from what I have seen
from her...
1561
01:22:10,467 --> 01:22:15,467
I think the words are that
things are not gonna
end up for her.
1562
01:22:36,667 --> 01:22:38,367
-Lunch time.
-Yeah.
1563
01:22:40,700 --> 01:22:43,667
[Stephanie] This past year
hasn't been
how I wanted it to be.
1564
01:22:46,367 --> 01:22:48,800
I feel like it's been
a raw deal from the start.
1565
01:22:52,367 --> 01:22:54,800
I feel like Doctor Now
never saw the good in me
1566
01:22:54,867 --> 01:22:58,867
and he never wanted
to acknowledge the progress
I made in my behavior.
1567
01:23:00,800 --> 01:23:02,033
And today's walk day.
1568
01:23:04,166 --> 01:23:04,197
[Stephanie] Just because
it didn't show up on the scale
1569
01:23:04,197 --> 01:23:06,166
[Stephanie] Just because
it didn't show up on the scale
1570
01:23:06,166 --> 01:23:08,700
doesn't mean that
I wasn't changing things
for the better.
1571
01:23:10,467 --> 01:23:12,000
We're still trying
to lose weight.
1572
01:23:12,066 --> 01:23:14,667
And I want my family
to be healthy along with me.
1573
01:23:16,467 --> 01:23:17,567
Don't starve.
1574
01:23:19,700 --> 01:23:20,867
I'm sorry.
1575
01:23:20,900 --> 01:23:22,967
[Martin] I am extremely proud
of her right now.
1576
01:23:25,100 --> 01:23:26,600
-Okay.
-Okay.
1577
01:23:26,667 --> 01:23:29,367
I can't help.
I can't help.
1578
01:23:29,367 --> 01:23:31,500
I'll be right back, kids.
I'm gonna go for a walk
with Grandpa.
1579
01:23:31,567 --> 01:23:33,166
Okay.
1580
01:23:33,166 --> 01:23:34,197
Don't... Try not to kill
each other.
1581
01:23:34,197 --> 01:23:34,900
Don't... Try not to kill
each other.
1582
01:23:39,767 --> 01:23:41,500
They're gonna kill each other,
aren't they?
1583
01:23:41,567 --> 01:23:43,300
Most likely.
1584
01:23:43,367 --> 01:23:44,467
I don't know.
1585
01:23:44,567 --> 01:23:47,100
We've been fighting this
for years,
1586
01:23:47,166 --> 01:23:48,567
and no matter what she tried
1587
01:23:48,567 --> 01:23:54,100
or what we did
or pretend to try,
nothing worked.
1588
01:23:54,166 --> 01:23:55,266
And we do the best we can.
1589
01:23:55,367 --> 01:23:57,166
She does a lot more
than what she used to do.
1590
01:23:57,166 --> 01:23:59,166
She's lost weight.
1591
01:23:59,166 --> 01:24:00,800
Don't be taking shortcuts.
Blacktop.
1592
01:24:00,867 --> 01:24:02,367
-No, no.
-Blacktop.
1593
01:24:02,467 --> 01:24:04,197
Shortcuts.
That's my way to go.
1594
01:24:04,197 --> 01:24:05,300
Shortcuts.
That's my way to go.
1595
01:24:05,367 --> 01:24:07,367
[Martin] Before she just used
to sit there
1596
01:24:07,367 --> 01:24:09,000
and whatever her arms
can reach.
1597
01:24:09,066 --> 01:24:11,700
Now she actually gets up
and helps me out.
1598
01:24:11,767 --> 01:24:13,767
She goes to the kitchen
and helps.
1599
01:24:13,867 --> 01:24:16,867
Or at least keeps me company
while I try.
1600
01:24:16,967 --> 01:24:18,066
This must be helping, Martin.
1601
01:24:18,066 --> 01:24:19,166
I am.
That's why we're walking.
1602
01:24:19,266 --> 01:24:21,100
-No, that's not.
-Come on.
1603
01:24:21,166 --> 01:24:24,700
[Martin] And I'm gonna do
everything I can to help her
get to her goal.
1604
01:24:24,767 --> 01:24:28,066
Um, I think
she'll get there, hopefully.
1605
01:24:28,066 --> 01:24:29,266
I have to be able
to make it back.
1606
01:24:29,266 --> 01:24:30,600
I know. Just probably more.
1607
01:24:30,667 --> 01:24:31,900
-Okay.
-You ready?
1608
01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:33,266
Oh.
1609
01:24:33,367 --> 01:24:34,197
That's further
than the last time.
1610
01:24:34,197 --> 01:24:35,266
That's further
than the last time.
1611
01:24:35,367 --> 01:24:36,767
I see trees.
1612
01:24:36,767 --> 01:24:37,967
I don't like trees.
1613
01:24:39,367 --> 01:24:42,100
So, I decided I'm not going
to be doing the program.
1614
01:24:43,767 --> 01:24:45,700
In the end, it wasn't for me
1615
01:24:45,767 --> 01:24:48,000
because nothing I did
was good enough.
1616
01:24:48,100 --> 01:24:50,567
I will find a way
to lose weight
some other way.
1617
01:24:50,667 --> 01:24:52,967
I'm just not sure
what's gonna be
the best way yet.
1618
01:24:54,100 --> 01:24:56,467
But the heat could be
your friend right now.
1619
01:24:56,467 --> 01:24:58,400
-It is not.
-Yeah, it is.
1620
01:24:58,467 --> 01:25:01,166
-It's making me sweat.
-That's why he's your friend.
1621
01:25:01,266 --> 01:25:03,266
[Stephanie] But I am going
to figure something out.
1622
01:25:03,367 --> 01:25:04,197
I can do it.
1623
01:25:04,197 --> 01:25:05,100
I can do it.
1624
01:25:05,166 --> 01:25:07,000
I'm not giving up on myself
1625
01:25:07,100 --> 01:25:09,266
just because Doctor Now
is giving up on me.
1626
01:25:11,500 --> 01:25:12,767
You're coming?
1627
01:25:12,867 --> 01:25:15,066
I'm coming.
[panting]
1628
01:25:15,066 --> 01:25:16,700
Your kids
and their tripping hazards.
1629
01:25:16,767 --> 01:25:19,667
[Heavy panting]
1630
01:25:21,100 --> 01:25:22,166
Oh. I survived.
1631
01:25:24,567 --> 01:25:25,200
I went to the sign over there.
