In tonight’s 1000-lb Sister episode, Amy hired a couple to hep her organize her home. But there were bugs everywhere. There was even a dead person and so Amy couldn’t help feeling like she failed her son. Amy comes from a family of hoarders. She didn’t then want to pass on this trait to her son. She wants little Gage to grow up in a healthy environment and not be around so much junk. Amy was working on herself to be a better mom.
But Tammy fell off the wagon. Tammy went to the doctor and she found out she gained weight. Tammy is farther away from her surgery than she ever was before. Tammy explained to the doctor that she has cheat days and then she told Chris that Amy brings junk food into her house and that wasn’t true.
Tammy pesters her sister until Amy brings the food she wants. If she doesn’t do it, Amy gets yelled at by Tammy and then once she does do it she gets yelled at by everyone else. Amy can’t take on the responsibility of Tammy. Tammy needs a health aide to watch over her. She was doing so well in the bariatric center because there she lost weight and now she’s no longer focusing on that. Amy was instead focusing on her dating life.
She was dating a guy she met on a big girls platform and she wants to travel to see him. Everyone in her family is against the idea. They think her first priority should be her health and not on some people who probably only dates big women. And so he wasn’t going to be interested in seeing Tammy lose weight.
Tammy always talks about wanting a future. But she doesn’t put in the work to achieve a future and she likes to pass the buck when she knows she’s going to get into trouble for cheating. Tammy admitted in her confessional that no food comes into her house that she didn’t specifically ask for. Tammy likes junk food.
She also likes eating large portions and portion control was something they taught her at the center. Tammy wasn’t even exercising. She was staying at home all the time and she wasn’t walking anywhere. The center used to make her walk around the hospital. When she’s at home, no one can get through to her or convince her that she’s killing herself. And Amy was getting tired of babying Tammy.
Tammy is a grown woman. She should be able to make the right choices for herself and Amy can’t mother her. Amy has her own baby. She also has her own problems. Amy was suffering from a bad back. She sprained it as they were cleaning up the house and to make things worse her husband also suffers a bad back from pushing Tammy everywhere for three years. The two of them can no longer push Tammy on their own. She had to get a motorized wheelchair and unfortunately she doesn’t fit on the chair of her new wheelchair. Tammy was too fat to fit on the vehicle that was supposed to help her. They had to return the motorized wheelchair. Tammy went back to her manual wheelchair that required people pushing her around and sadly that was her brother-in-law.
The poor man was huffing and out of breath as he tried to help Tammy. Then Tammy’s wheels were coming off of her manual wheelchair under the pressure of her weight and so should needs to lose weight or else she would never be able to go outside again. Tammy and Amy later met with their friends. They met with two hundred people who were inspired by their weight-loss journey. It was great for Tammy to see them because it reminded her that her journey isn’t over. She still needs to lose weight and lose it consistently long enough to get the surgery to cut her stomach in half. Tammy decided to go back to exercising after she met her fans. Her home health aide convinced her to take up swimming and swimming was a great way to lose weight.
Tammy didn’t have to worry about the pressure on her legs. They were weight less in the water and she was actually better at floating than anything else but Tammy wasn’t doing the workout like the other women in the pool. The other women were elderly. They were doing exercises to keep in shape and Tammy ignored all of that. Tammy also demanded to be pushed in her wheelchair all the way to the car and she refused to take her aide’s advice of at least walking from the curb to the car. And so Tammy realized that her aide was going to push her like no one else in the two days a week they have together.
THE END!
