On TLC

Hi Everyone, TLC (The Learning Channel) is running a very good special at odd times. You will have to check your TV guide. The show is called "The Half ton Man". It is a very good show that discusses how obesity is a disease. Hope you get to see it, Monica F.

Hi Monica, Thanks for the update... I have been looking to watch this show because a lot of people have mentioned it. I will have to check out the TV Guide. Take Care, Tanja

Hi Tanja, I can tell you when I watched it... it made me really sad and I cried alot. It was like a reality check. Its usually on very late like 10 -11pm or later. You may have to tape it. I found it on one night when I was unable to sleep. Hugs, Monica F

Thanks for posting this Monica. I did happen to catch it on TLC a couple of weeks ago. You are right... It was/is very sad, but also needed. Everyone should see it. Huggs, Ruth

I liked most of that show and the one before it was about a lady.. she was so big only one dr would take her case and she had so many complications but she came out on the other side and lost her weight.. she wasn't at goal but she could move and live... It was awesome. On the half ton man show I thought some of their stats were off and they said some harsh things about how "most" SMO's would gain it all back and negative stuff like that. Did you see him eating KFC and potato chips???????????? and POP?? ok so it was diet but my dr says NO POP ever again because the bubbles are so bad for your pouch.. I was surprised..
