From Drug Abuse to Food Addiction | My 600-Lb Life | TLC

It’s refreshing seeing him actually appreciate his caregivers. People don’t realize how much work emotionally and physically involved and draining it can be ❤️

[jesscline]

The way he talks about his siblings is so sweet. I hope he gets all the help he needs.

[oliviao]

My deepest respect goes to all caregivers; it takes an extraordinary individual to fulfill such a role in life.

[ToddToTheBlack]

I'm probably 40 lbs overweight right now, and at times feel miserable, i could only imagine what he's going through.

[KSUGA-mose]

Poor dude. I wish you good health. Hang in there and accept all the help you can get.

[kamuroshow]

Addiction is a real bastard. You can only get out of it with professional help and good people around you. And a strong will to change. I wish this man the courage to pull trough and change

[creativelobster]

5 eggs is nothing. It’s the amount of sausages, the cheese, and the biscuits that tip it over.

[Eli_skips]

Squatting 225lbs is hard in itself. I can’t imagine carrying 600lbs constantly.

[littIefairy]

Can I just say how much I love the comment section? It's such a positive change, where people are empathetic, kind, encouraging, and supportive -qualities that lacked severely years ago. You all are great for showing compassion. Kindness goes a long way ❤

[amiraj]

atleast he is humble and grateful. many of them are terrible brats..

[lesliehooks]

You know, he and his siblings seem like genuinely good people who, despite a crap hand in parents, are sticking together. When you know better, you do better. They had no rearing and still have love. Rooting for all three of them ❤

[emilyfeagin]

He’s kind, grateful and family oriented. I wish him all the best

[headleygrange]

The lack of knowledge about addiction in a country plagued by addiction is unreal

[sushigrasss]

Being a caregiver is hard work, congrats to his brother for not leaving his side!

[loraldinp]

If his brother wanted to have his brothers back, he’d help him make better choices not collect money as a “caretaker”.

[Turnpost]

That brother is awesome.

That brother is the only he got man respect for him to be there for him.

[golic]

Thats caregiver is amazing to him - Respect to her (and his loving brother!)

[lesleyjackson]

7 sausages and 5 eggs. No absolutely not. They aren't helping him by giving him all that

[Professional.student]

Love = Exercise = Health
If only these people would realize anything less is killing their loved ones, the people suffering may live longer 😢

[Bluelinechevy]

I truly wish this man good health and a good future.
