Default TLC Program

Just wondering if anyone caught the show last night on TLC at 8:00. It was called 627 lb woman: Jackie's story. It was really good it showed some of the actual surgery. She lost 200 lbs in 17 weeks. She was hospitalized due to complications for 100 days straight, however through the whole ordeal she continued to remain the most positive person. It was truly amazing how through everything over something like 6 mo she was in the hospital so much but you never heard he say anything negative, it was really a good program.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Wow. I missed that. I will try to catch it on the re-run! It is truky amazing how much of an affect a person's spirit has on this process. I've noticed that in the people I have met along this journey.

YES i have seen quite a few shows like that i believe there is also the sho on that channel the world's largest man and it also is good.
THEY been around watch tv listings for them to air...
there good watching.
I will say the storey followed on the man didnt have the happy
ending that the one on the female did. I believe those shows
now had the channel creat the big medicine sho that aires
on mondays at 9 pm.

I did not see it last night but I did see it a few times before, she was genuinely a kind person. I wonder how she is doing now.

Yes Whizzers. I have seen it before and set and watched it again. Storys like his need to be shown. They took you though it. The Half Ton man was on afterwards if you kept the same channel on. TLC is apart of the discovery channels I think? Jackie.... on the next one as they follow up with her will have another lady they talk about and show you her to.

As Lisa said they have a few more like this made. As Lisa calls her past obesity..... a birth defect....... i do agree with it. I belive its Genetic... a gene or a lack of somthing that makes us this way. Any ways I will be watching with yall when the next one is on. I hope everyone is well.,
