My brain takes a second to realizes thats her stomach....

Gone in three months, calling it. Even if she loses weight her organs are fucked.
 
Sorry to divert the thread but does anyone know where I can find the assanti brothers part 3? It's supposed to be episode 1 of season 4 of WATN but the only place I can see it is the tlc go app (Google has the wronge episode listed too) but I'm a Canadian and rather wouldn't go through a bunch of effort to signing up for an American tv network just for one episode if I can avoid it (I also don't know any Americans whose tv credentials I could borrow). I've even searched pretty much every torrent site I could think of but I'm guessing they're going off Google's episode list so their episode is wrong.

It's actually really odd cause it's almost as if it was scrubbed from the internet because I can find all other parts super easy and tlc and Wikipedia are the only episode lists that include it but I'm positive I've once watched it
 
Getting those fingers loosened up for what is sure to be an instant classic: a sort-of, kind-of famous YTer. It's like an xmas miracle - they usually don't give up the really great eps until deep into the season. But I am stoked! I'll be doing my usual schtick of typing, saving, editing, hour one in one post and hour two in another.

Bonne chance, mes amis.
 
Here we go! As usual with each new season, little snippets from each fatbody they'll be showing this season. As is typical, it looks like mostly women. Lots of gasping for breath, lots of moans of pain. No "Owwww, my laaaayg!" yet, though. I'll keep an ear open for it! Man, it looks like this season is going to set a weight record.

Samantha: 35 years old, Denver, Colorado

Hooooly shit. Samantha's abdominal area looks like those gigantic tires used on heavy mining equipment. Yeesh. it's hanging to her damn knees, and as she walks, a piece of it goes between her legs at the knee. She doesn't even try to get in the tub for a shower. Sits on the toilet to bathe. Shower stick! Looks like she lives alone, cause ain't nobody coming to her.so, she can barely reach all around her body to wash, but her toenails are painted. Who did that?

We've some weird bodies on this show, but this one is astonishing. Her gupa sags way lower on the right side. When she walks, the fat on her lower legs ripples like the water in a pond when you drop a stone in.

She has food delibery set up, and the delivery person has to climb the stairs because you know she isn't going down them.

Sob story time! Divorce. Dad was a violent drunk, beat her mom and older brothers and sisters. 150 pounds at 7 years old. Mother couldn't take care of her abd her sister while she was going to nursing school, so the two went back to living with dad, who got remarried. Claims they wouldn't let her eat what she wanted, so she was always hungry - no, you just didn't get your way. 200 pounds at 10. "I didn't want to be told what to eat!" OK, I think the problem is you and not them. 300 pounds at 13. Had no friends - well, if you were as bitchy to people as you were to your parents, no shit. Dropped out of school ay 17 at 400 pounds and got pregnant (how the fuck?). Two weeks after her baby was born, she broke up with her guy. She was 500 pounds. Father was killed in a motorcycle accident when she was 20. When she was 23 or 24, she was over 600 pounds. Somehow she got a job, but since she couldn't stop shoveling crap in her face, she lost her job, couldn't find another. Then she got to 800 pounds. The beginning said 800+ pounds, so we're into unknown territory. She got depressed, took a bunch of pills and her daughter found her - you know, this really cheeses me the fuck off. Who the fuck did you think would fin you, exactly?

grrr.

So now she gets money from feeders. Example: She's eating an entire fucking cake on camera. Her daughter says "Those people think she's beautiful" Girl, those people are loons, helping your mom kill herself. That isn't nice.

Lunch, or second lunch, or whatever -enough Chinese food for a family of four. Dr Gnome has agreed to try to help her, and she's wondering how the hell she's gonna get to Houston. Now she's crying. Whines about suffering every minute and that she's the size of a house and everything hurts. Well, yeah, you weigh more than 800 FUCKING POUNDS! I have to say, that crying she was doing looked a bit on the fake side.

First commercial break 20 minutes in. Great! Time for more coffee! LOL, an ad for sidecar health, one of those fee-negotiated, non-insurance thins like Big Al has. Ad for 1000 Pound Sisters - hi Amy, hi Tammy!

A few days after Samantha talks to Dr Gnome, she starts having severe abdominal pain. At the hospital, she gets a dx of kidney stones. She's too fat for surgery, so they send her home with meds. The whole EMT crew has to help her up the stairs. You know, did it not occur to her to get an apartment on the ground floor once you ballooned up? At least she thanks all the EMTs. She's 6' 2"? Damn. Her daughter's a bit chunky, too. She's got an industrial sized bottle of pepto she's about to drink from. I can just imagine what her stomach looks like.

There are no medical transport companies in the greater Denver area that will agree to take her anywhere, and who can blame them? She's a liability with a capital L. Here are her mom and sister (whom she has not seen in a dozen years I think is what she said), and she has gained 250 pounds since she saw her. Goddamn, she grew two people on her body sine she saw her. She thinks she want to work with animals, be a vet tech. OK, gorl.

I've seen her YT channel, and in the videos in Aprils at least, she's got a cannula for O2, but here she doesn't. Hmm. She's complaining of chest pains, and she feels like her fupa is cutting off the circulation in her leg (as she attempts to grab it and pull it up off her leg, which is impossible) and she also wet the bed twice because she couldn't walk. She's calling 911, explaining all her ailments and at least telling them she's 800+ pounds so they'll send a unit that can transport her (and extra hands). Her daughter says something something, mom is focusing on the negative, she needs to think more positively. I agree, to a point. Too many of these peple keep "I can't do this" as their mantra, and that's a losing mindset.

Commercial break at 35 minutes in. LOL - an ad for nutrisystem. Why didn't she order that - they deliver your food just like fast food crap. Ad for My Big Fat beautiful Life.

EMTs are here, helping her up and to the stairs. Ah, here's the cannula.Oh my god, one of the EMTs is holding her fupa up and walking backwards, leading her to the stairs. Man, Samantha has a potty mouth, I love it, haha. They made it down! Wow, if I had an emergency, I'd want this crew, they're great. They get her on a stretcher and into the transport. Next day: she's been admitted to the hospital and they've been running tests of all kinds. She's too fat to fit in the CT machine (where have we heard that before?). She pissed the hospital be, and the nurses are cleaning it. I foresee a catheter in her future. She's trying to move so they can put pads under her to pee on. Doesn't know when she's going to be able to go see Dr Gnome to show him she's ready to make all the changes, etc. She's ordering food - chicken caesar salad, with RANCH, bowl of grapes, bowl of cottage cheese, Pepsi, chocolate milk, and carrot cake.

No, you are not ready.
Commercials!

Month 3
So, she's been in the hospital for six weeks, and she is not dying. JFC "I'm not losing any weight. Because you're ordering shit food. What kind of hospital doesn't do restricted diets? I don't see a colostomy bag, so is she just pissing in the bed still?

940 pounds! She's gained 140 pounds in a MONTH AND A HALF IN THE HOSPITAL HOLY SHIT.

Video with Dr Gnome. He points out she's just lying around in the hospital bed, and asks her WTF is going on, and she trots out this "I want what I want to eat" bullshit. Blah blah, when she goes home, no cakes! She's just gonna eat chicken and broccoli. I don't believe her, and neither does Dr Gnome. She says the hospital is going to put her on a 2100 calorie diet? WTF, did she not just say they don't do those? Oh, here comes the crocodile tears. "This is a very serious situation, Sam," says Dr Gnome. "I know," she says. He asks her what the plan is. She says she doesn't know, doesn't have one. No shit. If you had a plan you wouldn't be heading toward 1000 pounds.

Dr Gnome has a plan! He's putting her back on the 1200 calorie plan. Yeah, this is going to go well, I predict. Oh, ffs, she's like Big Al, irrationally scared of everything. Dr Gnome says if you don't lose weight, there's nothing we're going to be able to do for you. She's crying, food is her life. Dr Gnome is nice and says your life is more important than food. He also tells her to get off her ass and walk every day (but says it way nicer than me). Onex she gets healthy enough to travel, they'll make arrangements to get her to Houston. Bye!!

Hallway talk with Dr Gnome! He doesn't think she's taking this seriously (and neither do I). His prognosis for her is very poor, he predicts maybe six months if she keeps going the way she's going - and he should know. outlook: POOR.

Ad break! Yaba is having a livestream watch party, yo, if you want to watch with as many people as Samantha has pounds.

With that, we have reached the end of the first hour. Zero progress made.

The only part that was even available was the first half of the episode up to where Justin throws a tantrum and leaves the house for a bit before Steven's surgery. I'm also 100% convinced that it never actually aired outside of OnDemand services (that's where I found it)
 
LOL. "Nobody knows what's causing my chest pains or shortness of breath."

I'm pretty sure being 900+ pounds is causing it.
 
she's six foot two
Imagine being 6'2" as a white woman. You could've had a future in basketball, martial arts, or modeling. Difficult in some areas but still so many possibilities due to uniqueness. Hell there's a market for giant (as in not fat) women in porn.

But no.
150 pounds at 7
Did they show a picture? Fully grown, average-sized men are like 150 lbs.
 
Why do women seem more predisposed to extreme obesity? Higher chance of being victims of sexual assault? Every one of these fatties claims to have been raped.
Most of the people on this show are completely immobile.

I think because of the testosterone, men of the same weight and height can actually get up and walk around because their legs naturally have more muscle.

I mean, even Steven Assanti could walk, and remember how his legs were (or don't actually.)
 
I'm watching it now. I like the flowers on her nightstand.
Why do women seem more predisposed to extreme obesity? Higher chance of being victims of sexual assault? Every one of these fatties claims to have been raped.
I know that women tend to have more fat allotted to the abdominal area (because body says "protect baby organs") but aside from that I don't know. It's possible more women have agreed to be on the show than men.
 
Why do women seem more predisposed to extreme obesity? Higher chance of being victims of sexual assault? Every one of these fatties claims to have been raped.
I think it's the mix of predisposition to being a victim of sexual assault plus that girls tend to be taught through media that girls comfort eat which probably pushes them to start the association between sweets and happiness meanwhile boys would usually have gone for things like cigarettes and other drugs historically. Girls are also more likely to have any eating disorders to begin with so clearly an unhealthy dynamic with food is just more common among women for a number of sociological and psychological reasons

It's also easier for women to survive at much higher rates of fat than men can which skews the numbers. Female bodies are designed to always have fat distributed around but male bodies aren't and are more predisposed to having visceral fat because of it so they die out faster. Tbh there just probably aren't enough men who get to 600lbs before dying from complications
 
We're going into hour two. If Samantha wins up being like the various noncompliant patients we've seen on this show, she's going to die sooner rather than later. She's way bigger than them.

She's still in the hospital. Time for PT! Does she have butt wings, too? She says she's lost ten pounds over the past couple of WEEKS. Gorl, that ain't it. She thinks going home will be better for her. No, I do not believe this, and neither do you. Great crotch shots, TLC.

She's lying in the bed. Remember those cartoons where a toon gets run over by a steamroller? That's what she looks like.

She's going home! Where she things she'll be able to make more progress because there's more to distract her. Color me skeptical. Her daughter and the daughter's bf will be coming to stay with her for a couple of weeks to help her out. She managed to get up and lean on the walker. Well, look at that. Her daughter arranged for her to ae an apartment on the first floor. Good call, Bella! Ah, there's the cannula. Now we know she got it on and hasn't let it go.

Oh, man, that poor bf (Ivan). They get her situated in the bed, and she complains that she's hungry. She grabs her phone and orders fast food. Chicken strips, four orders of sweet corn, ribs, chocolate molten lava cake (no cakes - that promise went out fast). Goddamn.

Ad break! We're an hour and twenty minutes in and not a damn thing has happened except her spending a few months in the hospital on the taxpayer dime.

And we're back! She's lying steamrollered on the bed and here's some more fast food: bbq! Bella and Ivan watch her suck down that bbq. Not gonna lie, I do love me some bbq, but that is not on her diet. Ah, the other buzzword: she's "overwhelmed". Mark your bingo cards, folks!

More whining. My sympathy meter is bottoming out fast. She's crying a pity party for herself. Her daughter is lecturing her about her poor attitude. Kick her ass, Bella!

Month 5

Bella and Ivan are STILL staying with her, because she still needs help. Imagine being 19-ish and having to clean out the bariatric moveable shitter your mother uses instead of being out in the world, exploring and living your life. I'm going to tag Samantha with the selfish tag. She sends them off to get her some Starbucks - "that salted caramel thing". ALSO mot on your diet. She's rewarding herself and have cheat meals and I'm telling you right now she's gained weight. WTF? A giant burger and a pile of french fries. This is ALSO not on your diet. She's giving lip service to all the reasons she wants to lose weight, blah blah. She doesn't. She is not treating it seriously, and she just loves to eat more than anything else. You can't help someone who doesn't want it.

Ad break! We're now an hour and a half in, with zero progress, and we are no closer to Dr Gnome in Houston.

Month 9

COVID enters the chat.

Samantha went back into the hospital because she ballooned up to 974 pounds while she was on her own. Goddamn.

Dr Gnome was concerned, and had another doctor do a gastric sleeve. That was three months ago and is down to 638 pounds. I can't believe they operated on her, even to stop her from killing herself with food. Since travel is halted, she can't go to Houston. Dr Gnome is concerned about the next steps and Samantha winding up in the condition she was before. Dr Gnome and the doctor who did the sleeve have a video call. The doc says her weight loss has slowed down the past couple of weeks. Dr Gnome is still very concerned.
She is blowing off the psych chats. Not good!

Ad break. Finally in the last 15 minutes, some progress, even though she's still whinging about food. Look, Samantha, stop blowing off your psych chats and find a fucking hobby. If you wallow in this shit, you're just going to be a pig again.

OK, people: fifteen minutes to go. We can do this!

Still in Denver. The Denver Dr Hottie says they're going to move her from the hospital to a rehab facility. He tells her to keep making progress. Weigh in! 280.2kg = 616 pounds. He says great job and he will check on her at rehab. Hey, at least she'll be easier to move. Dr Hottie says they'll only be able to keep her in rehab for about a month, and he wants her to continue with PT and pysch chats. I bet she will not! I am feeling pessimistic about this one.

Masks for everyone!

Dr Hottie says the last thing she needs would be to get COVID. That would suck and be difficult, for sure. Cutie gals on this EMT crew for transport to rehab.

Ad break! Last one for this episode, as we're under ten minutes left. This woman has an only fans. Will she go right back to eating for the feeders?

And we're back! Samantha got an infection and had to be transferred back to the hospital for treatment. Dr Hottie says she had a setback - cellulitis and where all her skin rubs together. He says the infection is under control, but the wound is a problem. Dr Hottie is optimistic, but that she's still blowing off psych chats. He says she's not losing weigh as quickly, she's just under 500 pounds now. Aw, love fest between Dr Gnome and Dr Hottie in the mutual appreciation society.

Dr Gnome says she probably will not be able to cope on her own. Everything she's lost has been in a controlled environment. 500 pounds is not nothing, of course, but I wonder if she'll be able to do what she needs to do when she goes home. Like I said, I am not optimistic.

A self-filmed video from Samantha, since he crew could not go to film her due to COVID. She says the non-healing wound is just a small setback, she is back at the rehab facility, but she hopes to continue to make progress and she is still under 500 pounds.

And that's a wrap!

Final rating: not a fail, but not a success. This one is going into the murky in between, where the patient has lost a good deal of weight in some fashion - generally, as in this case, in a controlled environment - but has not demonstrated they can continue to do it on their own when they leave the confines of the hospital or rehab.

See you next week for another thrilling episode!

I didn't see the Instagram before it went down, but she hasn't posted anything to her Twitter or Youtube in all of November or December. That's probably not a good sign. I also have no interest in looking any further into this.

Edit: Chicken Strips, 4 orders of corn, barbeque ribs, cheeseburger, fries, lemonade, and cake. In one meal.

I don't think that hospital trip was a wake up call.

Double Edit: "I'm going to die anyway so might as well be happy!"

Pretty sure that's on the BINGO card.

Triple Edit: Oh my God, this fucking bitch.

"There's no positive to me coming home."

What a sentence to say TO YOUR OWN DAUGHTER, you fucking bitch.

amazing
 
It's not unusual "sadly" for people to gain weight during this show, but she didn't start this episode bedridden. Once she got to the hospital, she has not walked since.

I've never seen someone go from mobile to bedridden during the show. And Sean literally gained 250 pounds in a couple months, but he was bedridden at the start and at least ended the first episode walking.

Edit: LOL, here is the COVID update and she is 974 now.

Double Edit: She's 638 now because they literally shoved her into a hospital, gave her an emergency sleeve surgery, and took away her phone (probably.)
 
I would like to point out that she is 200 pounds less than when the show started, yet somehow still less mobile because of a phantom knee injury.

I don't believe that her muscles atrophied in the hospital because they were weak to begin with.

Edit: I didn't realize she has a "professional" Twitter account and a personal one. She was sperging out the entire episode on Twitter.

Double Edit: Wait a second. If she's been in the hospital since COVID started, she's been doing her OnlyFans account FROM THE HOSPITAL???

Bella seems like a nice kid and is really well-spoken. She's right about trying to be so positive. "Stop yelling at me!" her mother cries, yet Bella at that point had barely raised her voice. I can sense through the screen she has a lot more she'd like to say but doesn't because TV. I hope she doesn't follow the same path her mom did and I'm glad she has Ivan at least. I don't know him obviously but his being willing to help his girlfriend's cartoonishly obese bitchy mother is a good sign.

soon

Dr. Now's got that blinged out stethoscope. Man has drip.
