Default Did anyone watch TLC today?

I wanted to know if anyone watched "I Eat 33,000 Calories a Day" on TLC? I am watching it now. I dont know what to say...Im....shocked and saddened. In fact, parts have put me in tears....its so painful to watch.
Any other comments from people who have seen this?

I'm watching right now as well. Honestly, I'm on the verge of tears...I mean, I was never that bad at my fattest(269). I look at their food now and I'm disgusted BUT I'm sure pre-op I would've probably wrestled them for some of it lol. I do agree with them describing their relationship with food as an addiction, I'm no one to judge them but I still sit here in disbelief as to how someone can be 800+ pounds. All I can say is "wow"...

I am watching it now as I type and am amazed at how many calories some of these individuals were actually consuming. Then I think about the food I use to put away pre-op. It is a wake-up call. Watching it makes me realize, even though I am on the losing side I am still addicted to food. I will give my self credit for the fact I cannot and will not eat as much as I could almost 2 years ago. So many mixed feelings watching this.
