When medical professionals stop saying "diet," people will be more receptive to making life style changes. Do not focus on the pounds but how your blood work improves. Your clothes will become too big as you progress. And progress takes time. Allow yourself whatever amount of time it takes to get healthy. You deserve it. ❤ Surgery is not a cure; it is a tool like exercise and healthy eating. Learn how to cook; take a culinary course at a college or watch a lot of video's. Learn about seasonings and herbs, and cooking methods. Have FUN learning and creating flavorful meals. That's how I lost 150 lbs in 2 years and continue since 2005. ❤

JESUS loves us all, but he is a righteous judge and sin is still wrong even though he loves us. 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God."❤️🔥🙏

[@snoopygonewilder]

I feel like a big part of Nikki's success was the fact that she had such a supportive family. I mean, her parents were counting Calories with her, if that doesn't show love I don't know what does.

[@kathryntanner9796]

Yes, big change from other families who sneak food to the overweight person and pull the "one bite won't hurt" trick on them.

[@jenshark4]

Keep in mind the enablers are usually dealing with a manipulative person. IE they get angry if their family member doesn’t bring them whatever food they want.

[@whatif8676]

Yes absolutely, its the positive and loving atmosphere she had that kept her motivated for all the hard work. So happy for her

[@Maddieelovesu]

I didn’t sense any resentment from the parents for only eating 1200 calories either. That’s not an easy lifestyle to maintain and they did it happily

[@jennysmith8835]

She’s so self aware; “i take it one meal at a time otherwise i’ll get overwhelmed”.

Sad way to live hour by hour especially at 6 months. Some days it has to be like that but not every day otherwise the drugs are still controlling you just as much as they were before because you’re thinking of them 24/7. Get a hobby. Start living. Stop counting sober days and making it an obsession!

[@CROWFACED]

I loved her saying that having a box of sweets next to her bed is "disrespecting her progress". Somehow it hits home a bit, and it’s such a powerful thing to say for any obstacle for any goal.

That's awesome! 🌹

[@cn_862]

@veronikavysoudilova9697 was about to say. ~150lbs or 68kg is normal for 5ft6 female even for BMI, and 95-115lbs (like 43-50kg) for 5ft6 female is clearly underweight if not severely so the more you're skewed toward 95lbs even for BMI. People don't know what 95lbs female looks like don't they?

My niece had to lose 60 pounds to qualify for her bariatric surgery. Once her goal was achieved, she told the doctor that she refused the operation and would settle for a diet. She lost 150 pounds and has been at a healthy weight for 5 years now. She runs every day and sometimes does triathlons.

[@dichallis4135]

That's amazing - congratulations to her. I lost 50lbs last year to get to a healthy weight and now swim regularly. The difference has been amazing. What people don't realise is that weight loss of 90% diet. I couldn't exercise at the beginning due due to inflammation, and still lost weight through tracking calories. My inflammation improved after some weightloss so was able to exercise after a bit.

[@Ferrante1]

Just wow!!

[@Chipster724]

[@charismaevette]

i was looking for this comment!! i thought she was 400lbs

[@paturnellahazell8091]

It was the first thing I noticed about Nikki.❤ Glad to see your comment 🤗

[@jb6712]

She wasn't "strutting" at all; that's the only way she had of carrying her large abdomen---I'm nowhere near Nikki's size, but as an overweight person, I have to lean back sometimes to do the same thing. But yes, her mobility is/was amazing (the show ended around 2016, hence the past tense). Most of the people on the show didn't bother to get up to go to the bathroom, and here she was walking and at least staying mobile. She got down to around 200 pounds before the show ended, and I'd like to see her now.

[@Secretagent71114]

I've seen this episode before. That was one of the first indicators she was going to be more willing to follow the plan on her own. She still walked, drove, and worked (as a costume designer at a theater) at 650 lbs. I can't think of another patient off the top of my that you can say that about. Her family was the most supportive too. It always amazes me to see the number of households where everyone else is still eating crap and expecting the patient to follow Dr. Now's diet or even making fun of their diet or telling them they can cheat. Not this family, they jumped right on board with her.

[@erit3662]

I think it is important to note that Nikki is very young. Even younger than you expect. Her body is more resilient and didn't have decades living at this size before she got the help she needed.

[@deannav9091]

Dr now has to be so relieved whenever he gets a patient that actually tries and listens and don’t argue with him

[@mtb3803]

@boodledemic6430 I saw an other comment of you where you said that you are a proud fat phobic and that we should bash fat people. Here you are saying you are fat yourself?? Anyhow, bashing people is not going to help to make them lose weight. They probably would start even to gain weight when treated like that! Are you aware that some people have a medical condition that made them fat? Yes, some people eat way too much and got fat cuz of that.. BUT that usually has reasons as well like trauma. No one deserves to be bashed. No one is fat because they like to be like that. It’s sad enough to be in that situation. No need to make it worse! Making fun of people because of their looks.. even bashing them for it.. how ignorant and childish. Get some decency!

[@allis5870]

​@boodledemic6430 no one in the world has ever decided to be fat because people weren't mean to them about it. No one wants to be fat no matter how much you cry about fat acceptance or whatever.

@@v1nigra3 thank you. People need to go somewhere else to get their ego massaged. This is life and death, and if hurting someone's feelings saves their life, grab a kleenex and go to work.

I love how great and supportive her family was. I am so happy for her weightloss.

[@brooke11111]

It’s really rewarding to see them being able to beat their food addiction the first time and her motivation was inspiring.

[@orionash7067]

Got to say shes the most mobile 600+pound person to be on this show

[@brizzle3903]

I noticed that too but maybe her motivation to lose the weight helped her be more mobile in spite of her size

[@Sam_1984a]

@@brizzle3903 I think she must just have a fair amount of muscle on her

[@orchadorkification]

I think she's also pretty young, which helps. I think she's in her twenties.

[@orionash7067]

@@orchadorkification other people her age or younger on the show were very immobile

[@orchadorkification]

@@orionash7067 Still, it helps to be young. She might have a healthier diet than they do, even with the massive caloric intake.
