1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,840 What is up everybody? I am George Masi. Please say hello to my co-host, Sharona. So this 2 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:12,560 is the TLC Weekly Roundup on the George Masi show and we are talking a thousand pound sisters. 3 00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:15,680 We were talking about this last week and it was getting pretty crazy when we were talking 4 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:19,960 about it, but we ran out of time. So I am so glad that we have time to talk about this. 5 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:24,120 So we said goodbye to the thousand pound best friends last week and there's so much going 6 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:29,520 on on season four, episode nine of a thousand pound sisters. So Tammy has decided to tell 7 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:34,240 her family that after two weeks of knowing Caleb and that she's known him for a month 8 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:39,160 now, they're engaged. And not only did she say yes to the proposal, but she's going to 9 00:00:39,160 --> 00:00:44,840 get married in two weeks in Ohio when her entire family is in Kentucky. And she's like, oh, 10 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:49,960 by the way, y'all need to be at my wedding so I can marry this complete stranger. And 11 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:55,680 I'm doing it in Ohio because my friends are here and you getting there is kind of your 12 00:00:55,680 --> 00:01:00,520 own problem. So it's just, I don't know, like I'm trying to look at it from two different 13 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,640 angles because I like to be open minded here on the George Masi show. So I was looking 14 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:09,520 at it like Tammy has spent most of her life not being able to have the things that she 15 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:15,160 wanted, especially kids, a boyfriend, a normal life. So now that she has opened these doors 16 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:20,080 through her hard work, I wonder if she feels like this is her chance at everything that 17 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:24,480 she couldn't have. It's just, but then I'm looking at it from her family standpoint 18 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:29,680 where they're like, this is a complete stranger that you don't know. Been in this rehab for 19 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:34,600 a year, then all of a sudden, like this one month in this whole year is like obsessed 20 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:40,640 with you. I get the worry from the family, but I also feel bad because Tammy's like, 21 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:46,280 I just want them to feel happy for me. And she's not in that, but it's like as family, 22 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,200 like for me, when it comes to family, I don't feel happy for them as much as I feel worried. 23 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:55,240 And I like try to control them. So as family, we do that. We're always like, don't do that. 24 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,240 That's a bad idea. We're never just happy for them because they're our family and we 25 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:02,600 don't want anything bad to happen. No, I definitely feel that for sure. Like, like you said, I 26 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:08,440 see both sides. Like she's finally getting her life. Like she's finally getting it. So 27 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,760 she's like, I want to do everything. Like she's hitting the ground and running. Like 28 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,680 she's like, I want to go shopping. I want to do this. And then I just want to get married 29 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:20,840 really fast, you know? So I see where her family's coming from because even if any of 30 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:25,520 my friends were like, Hey, I just met this guy like a week ago and we're engaged, but 31 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:31,000 actually we're getting married. I'd be like, Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What? 32 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:36,880 Like, so I get where they're coming from. And the fact that like she doesn't fully know 33 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:41,760 him. I feel like if they would have made it, maybe waited like just a couple months to get 34 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,000 to know each other, like, I think I don't remember exactly said, I think it was either 35 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,040 Chris or Amanda, they said, like, you need to wait a little while to see someone's true 36 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:55,640 colors, because they're still in like, yeah, very crazy honeymoon stage where they're just 37 00:02:55,640 --> 00:03:01,280 like infatuated with each other. But you need to like see how you work together for like 38 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:07,280 a little bit longer. But you know, if it makes her happy, and this is how she wants her life 39 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:13,040 to go, and this is what she thinks is right for herself. I mean, everyone's being supportive. 40 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,920 And like Chris said, like, I'm not going to do nothing till you make me do something. 41 00:03:17,920 --> 00:03:24,240 Well, I don't know. I see the angles from where the family is coming from because Caleb 42 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:29,360 is working towards weight loss surgery. And he's been there for a year. So is Tammy and 43 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:35,000 Tammy has, you know, moved mountains in that year. And it's like Caleb doesn't look like 44 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:39,920 he's close to being ready for his surgery. I don't know that. But it just seems like 45 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,560 because he said that he coded a few times while he was there, meaning that he was dying on 46 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,680 the table. And they saved him. And I'm just like, are they in the same place in their 47 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:53,160 journeys? And I think that's what's hard for me because Tammy is in a very great place 48 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,440 in her life. She is happy. She is doing things. She is walking. She's trying on wet and dresses. 49 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:01,480 She is living a life that she didn't think she was going to be able to live. So I get 50 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,800 that. But where are they journey wise? And are they compatible? Because she wants him 51 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:10,400 to leave with her. But I don't think Tammy has that much longer in the rehab facility. 52 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:15,280 So how would he get to his goal weight, have surgery and then recover in that short amount 53 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,560 of time? Like I feel like love is clouding her thought process, right? She's not even 54 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:24,320 seeing straight and thinking clearly because she's literally so infactuated with someone 55 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,880 who's so infactuated with her. And I love this for her. I love the fact that she has 56 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:33,360 someone who is literally in awe of her presence and loves her. Everyone deserves that. But 57 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:38,480 I'm like with Chris and Amanda too. Because I'm like, who is this guy? And like you don't 58 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,840 even know anything about him. Like I feel like I've had friends for years and I still 59 00:04:42,840 --> 00:04:46,680 learn things about them. Like we'll go out and do things and we'll go on a trip together. 60 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,960 And I'm like, I didn't know that about you. Like you still are learning things. So it's 61 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:56,840 like, I love Tammy that she's happy, but I'm just as worried as the family. And I feel 62 00:04:56,840 --> 00:05:02,400 like everybody at home is worried too. Yeah, I mean, I feel like you really need, I don't 63 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:08,080 feel like you know someone fully till you really live with them or travel with them. 64 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,720 There's just so many other experiences. Like yes, they live in the same facility, but they 65 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:16,480 don't live together one on one. And like you said, their journey seemed very different. 66 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,680 Like Caleb is not talking about, like yes, he wants the surgery, but he doesn't have 67 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:25,680 like a set date. Like we don't know, like, you know, Tammy's about to get her trach taken 68 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:31,760 out. Like she's about, you know, she's ready to go home and just continue on her journey. 69 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:36,600 And if she's still continuing on her journey, it's kind of going to be more difficult for 70 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:42,040 her to be focusing on him. And when he has to recover from stuff, when she still has 71 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:49,600 to be doing what she needs to do. So I just hope that he sees her as like his motivation. 72 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:55,560 But at the same time, like I don't see him leaving with her because he's still like he, 73 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:59,000 she had to recover the same way. Like she knows it's going to take, like she understands 74 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:05,080 what it's going to do to his life because she's living it now. So it's either they're 75 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:09,920 going to be married and then he's going to stay in the facility or if he comes home, 76 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:14,880 like how I don't understand how that's going to fully work. I hope it works. But like you 77 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:20,200 said, like it's a scary time for her. And I know that she's like so infatuated and she's 78 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:24,400 like probably just so in love and just wants to do this. But I hope that it doesn't bite 79 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:25,400 her in the end. 80 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,920 I agree. Love doesn't have an expiration date. It's always going to be love. Okay. Now I 81 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:35,400 want to talk about this phone call that Tammy had with Amy. She wants Amy to be her maid 82 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:39,800 of honor, which makes sense because Tammy is made of honor and she actually planned 83 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:44,280 a whole wedding. She did the decoration. She chose the cake. The whole ambiance of the 84 00:06:44,280 --> 00:06:49,040 situation was all Tammy. So it's return the favor. You know, when somebody does a favor 85 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:54,280 for you, you return the favor and Amy reluctantly was like, well, you're my sister and you're 86 00:06:54,280 --> 00:06:58,520 my family. So if you asked me to do something, are you asked me to be somewhere I'm going 87 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:03,160 to be there? She doesn't really feel like this is the best idea in the world. But she's 88 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:06,440 like, I'm going to get the dresses. I'm going to get the decorations. I'm going to come 89 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:11,080 up with the seascape, you know, and everything that we can have for you to have this perfect 90 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:16,560 wedding. But she was like, if I get there and he's weird, like you're not marrying anybody. 91 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,560 And I'm just like, I feel Amy on that. It's like, if you get there and you get like a 92 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,320 horrible feeling, like no way. And then when they got there, it was kind of like a staring 93 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:29,720 session. Like they stared him down. Like I call that a side eye session. Like as soon 94 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:34,800 as they came in and they sat down and everybody was just like, it was a side eye session. They 95 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:39,520 were like, I don't know this dude and I don't like this dude and I'm going to figure out 96 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:44,120 what all this is. You know, they were just like, whatever's gone on in here, I'm going 97 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:49,280 to figure this out. It's, it's so normal for family to feel that way. Because I was thinking 98 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,880 about it and I was like, I'm the same way. My sister has been married three times. And 99 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:57,600 every time I met each guy, I hated them. But it's not because they were horrible, but it's 100 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,920 not because of that. It was only because I love my sister and I don't want anything to 101 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:06,040 happen to her. And I don't want anyone who's weird or bad anywhere near her. So I was like, 102 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:10,520 I totally get how Chris feels. Chris was like, I'm going to have to chew him out and make 103 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:15,920 sure that this man understands that this is my sister and I will literally do anything 104 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:19,360 to protect her. And I feel like Caleb got a little nervous. You know, he was a little 105 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:23,800 scared. He's like, they can put it into this. And Tammy is like, y'all got to chill because 106 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,200 you're going to scare him away. And I feel her on that too. Because it's like family 107 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:31,600 can definitely push people away because they come on too strong. And it's like, yeah, my 108 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:36,480 family loves me. You love your, your family. But you know, you push away the person that 109 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:41,400 you love from them. And it's like, now they're alone. So it's like, you love me so much. 110 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,400 Now I'm alone. You know, that's how Tammy looks at it. Like, y'all love me so much, but you're 111 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,960 going to make me alone. Like chill out a little bit, you know? 112 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:55,920 Yeah, totally. I get that. Because families can be very overwhelming. But I think that 113 00:08:55,920 --> 00:09:01,040 what Caleb doesn't understand and what Tammy doesn't maybe want to see is that they have 114 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:05,160 been there every time that she has almost died. They have been there for her every time 115 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:09,240 that she was almost at her goal and didn't reach it. They have been there for her through 116 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:14,920 thick and thin. So they want to make sure that everything is going to go off perfectly 117 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:20,280 for her because they don't want to see anything happen to her. That's their little sister. 118 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,840 Like you're going, I would do that for my little sister. I'd do that for my friends. 119 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:27,280 Like you want to make sure that your family and your friends are taken care of by the 120 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:31,840 person that they're saying I do too. Because Tammy wants to spend the rest of her life 121 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:36,400 with this man. So I get where Chris is coming from. I get where they all are coming from. 122 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:40,920 So we're just going to have to see what happens. I mean, I just really want it to go well 123 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:45,880 for her. But I really hope that Caleb, still, I feel like his mindset's a little different 124 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:50,560 than Tammy's is because he's not in the same, like we said, the same part of his journey. 125 00:09:50,560 --> 00:09:56,200 And I hope that it doesn't like make her relapse or something because, you know, and I want 126 00:09:56,200 --> 00:10:00,760 her to not just focus on making him better. Because I know a lot of times, you know, people 127 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:06,240 will try to, you know, help their significant other to make them better. And they forget 128 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:11,760 about themselves. And Tammy really needs to remember that she needs to put herself first, 129 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:16,960 regardless, like point blank period, put yourself first, girl, we need to get you out there 130 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,880 shopping. We need to get you driving a car. We need to get you to get that, you know, 131 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,920 like she can't do all that stuff if she's too busy, worried about someone else. So I 132 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:29,000 really want to work out for them. But I want her to still remember that she is the main 133 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,520 person that she needs to be thinking about. 134 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:36,680 Yes, she is still Queen Tammy. She's always going to be the queen bee is what the family 135 00:10:36,680 --> 00:10:40,960 say, you know, she it's Tammy what Tammy wants, when Tammy wants it, while Tammy wants it 136 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:45,600 right at that moment. Don't lose that energy, you know, because just because you found Caleb 137 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,640 and you want to make sure that he's okay. Because like Chris said, you don't want to 138 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,800 be taking care of him, right? He needs to be taking care of you. And yes, you can take 139 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,960 care of each other, but it should never be just you taking care of him. Like you got 140 00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:00,880 to be Queen Tammy, you have to stand for what you want and put yourself first. And I kind 141 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:05,520 of wanted them to like take Tammy out after she hit her go away and go clubbing and let 142 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:10,440 her just organically meet a man, right? Like just organically see what was out there because 143 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:15,920 I feel like this is too premature. She's about to be smaller and a new body and looking 144 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,360 amazing. And then she's going to be married. She can't even go out and have fun. Like I 145 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:23,920 wanted her to get to go out and organically meet people, you know, and just buy with people 146 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:28,600 and see how she felt. Now that she's going to do this down, even before she's at her 147 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:32,280 lowest weight, she's already going to be married and hitched. You know, and I'm like, 148 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:36,680 I mean, that's, that's not fair. You deserve to go out and club, meet people and do all 149 00:11:36,680 --> 00:11:42,560 types of stuff. And speaking of Amanda thinks that this rushed wedding is because Tammy might 150 00:11:42,560 --> 00:11:49,120 be pregnant. Now, Amy thinks that it's impossible, but Chris was like, well, there's a wheel, 151 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:53,920 there's a way, you know, if it's, if it's a wheel, they might have figured out some 152 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:59,720 type of way to make that happen. And that really is bothersome because we know Amy is 153 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:03,200 in that same situation. She had her surgery and then had a baby, then turn around, had 154 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:10,600 another baby and it put a halt to your progress. And it puts a halt to your body healing. And 155 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:16,000 Tammy has a trick and Tammy is at a different weight than Amy was. So could her body even 156 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:20,640 handle a pregnancy? And I know how much she wants a child and I want her to have that 157 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:26,200 so bad, but I want her to be healthy and to do it in a time where it won't put her at 158 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:32,600 risk. So I'm really worried about that because that would explain such a fast track wedding 159 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:37,400 and a fast track relationship because she already said before she even knew Caleb existed 160 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:43,600 that she was ready to have a baby. So if that's going on, I'm going to have, but everybody 161 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:47,600 else is a little worried because she just has so many health things going on. 162 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:55,800 Yeah, I mean, it's a blessing if she is pregnant, but for the sake of her body and her healing 163 00:12:55,800 --> 00:13:00,480 and her recovery and her journey, I hope that they just pump the brakes a little bit and 164 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:07,400 wait for the baby. Like they're already doing the shotgun wedding. So I mean, let's just 165 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:12,680 hold off on the baby for now, for now, and make sure that you know her and Caleb really 166 00:13:12,680 --> 00:13:17,680 vibe and that everything actually works out before they bring another person into this 167 00:13:17,680 --> 00:13:22,560 world and that her body, like you said, could her body handle pregnancy right now? We don't 168 00:13:22,560 --> 00:13:27,000 even know that like the doctors and her haven't even, they've even talked about that yet. 169 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:33,000 So we need to know if that's something that her body can handle so that she can be healthy 170 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:39,000 and that her baby can be healthy. So I think I hope, I mean, like I said, a baby is a blessing, 171 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:44,400 but I hope that they wait a little bit longer so that they're able to make sure everything 172 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:50,040 is safe, that the baby is healthy. I think Amy was a little bit further out in her journey. 173 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:55,360 I mean, it was so quick, but she's a little further out than Tammy now. Like Tammy still 174 00:13:55,360 --> 00:14:00,240 has the trick, like you said. So we still need her to get to a smaller weight and to 175 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:04,480 be a little bit more, you know, healthier. Her body needs to still recover because she's 176 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:10,240 like fresh, fresh out of the surgery. Like, yes, Amy was fresh, but not this fresh. Not 177 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,120 this fresh. All right, guys, that's all that happened. This was season four episode 9, 178 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:20,800 1000 pounds sisters. This season is just crazy. I am like in awe of the craziness going on. 179 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,360 And I feel like I'm part of the family. I feel like I'm like the honorary brother because 180 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:29,760 every time I learned more about Caleb in the situation, I'm like, no, no, not happening. 181 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:34,200 Tammy, I'm about to call you and then I realized I don't have her number.
