510
00:29:35,967 --> 00:29:39,267
WHEN MY HUSBAND DOESN'T WANT
TO DO IT WITH ME?
511
00:29:39,267 --> 00:29:42,767
LIKE, HE WANTS TO EAT
ALL OF THE JUNK,
512
00:29:42,767 --> 00:29:44,833
AND THAT'S ALL HE WANTS
TO BUY.
513
00:29:44,833 --> 00:29:46,900
AND -- AND...
514
00:29:46,900 --> 00:29:51,300
I'M NOT GETTING NO SUPPORT
FROM HIM AT ALL.
515
00:29:51,300 --> 00:29:56,567
I CAN'T DO THIS WITHOUT
SOMEBODY TO HELP ME SAY NO.
516
00:29:56,567 --> 00:30:00,600
I WANT BETTIE JO TO GO SEE
A THERAPIST NEXT MONTH
517
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,667
TO TRY TO ADDRESS
SOME OF THESE BIG ISSUES
518
00:30:03,667 --> 00:30:06,867
THAT ARE DRIVING HER TO EAT.
519
00:30:06,867 --> 00:30:08,233
WE DON'T HAVE A LOT OF TIME
520
00:30:08,233 --> 00:30:10,800
BEFORE IT'S GOING TO BE TOO LATE
FOR BETTIE JO.
521
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,833
Bettie Jo:
I'M REALLY SCARED RIGHT NOW
522
00:30:13,833 --> 00:30:16,700
BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
523
00:30:27,933 --> 00:30:30,067
SPEAKING TO THE DOCTOR
IN THE HOSPITAL
524
00:30:30,067 --> 00:30:33,667
WAS A WAKE-UP CALL
FOR THE BOTH OF US.
525
00:30:33,667 --> 00:30:37,967
SO THE DOCTOR SET UP A THERAPIST
FOR JOSH AND I TO SEE.
526
00:30:37,967 --> 00:30:39,400
HI. I'M SANTHI.
527
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:40,433
HI. I'M BETTIE.
528
00:30:40,433 --> 00:30:41,833
NICE TO MEET YOU.
HI.
529
00:30:41,833 --> 00:30:43,533
I'M JOSH.
NICE TO MEET YOU.
530
00:30:43,533 --> 00:30:44,633
COME ON
AND HAVE A SEAT.
531
00:30:44,633 --> 00:30:47,233
WE KNOW
WE HAVE TO FIGURE THIS OUT,
532
00:30:47,233 --> 00:30:50,400
OR I'M NOT GONNA BE
AROUND MUCH LONGER.
533
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,500
WELL, WHY DON'T YOU BOTH TELL ME
A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOURSELF
534
00:30:53,500 --> 00:30:54,967
AND KIND OF
WHAT BRINGS YOU HERE?
535
00:30:54,967 --> 00:30:56,900
WELL, WE'VE ALWAYS HAD
SOME ISSUES,
536
00:30:56,900 --> 00:31:00,967
BUT FOR LIKE
THE LAST TWO MONTHS NOW,
537
00:31:00,967 --> 00:31:06,067
WE'VE JUST KIND OF BEEN BITING
EACH OTHER'S HEADS OFF, I GUESS.
538
00:31:06,067 --> 00:31:09,533
WE DON'T KNOW
HOW TO COMMUNICATE.
539
00:31:09,533 --> 00:31:14,267
IN MY OPINION, IT STARTED
WHEN I HAD MY SURGERY.
540
00:31:14,267 --> 00:31:16,400
THE FIRST NIGHT,
541
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:20,867
HE PROMISED THAT HE WOULD STAY
AT THE HOSPITAL WITH ME,
542
00:31:20,867 --> 00:31:23,633
AND HE DIDN'T.
543
00:31:23,633 --> 00:31:25,600
WONDER, JOSH, WHAT ARE YOU
THINKING OR FEELING,
544
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,600
OR HOW HAS IT
AFFECTED YOU?
545
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,700
THE WEIGHT LOSS
OR THE SURGERY,
546
00:31:29,700 --> 00:31:32,700
AND JUST HOW HAS
THAT CHANGED YOUR RELATIONSHIP?
547
00:31:32,700 --> 00:31:34,900
I USED TO TAKE CARE OF HER.
MM-HMM.
548
00:31:34,900 --> 00:31:36,500
I USED TO BE HER CAREGIVER...
MM-HMM.
549
00:31:36,500 --> 00:31:37,800
...DO WHAT SHE NEEDS,
550
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:41,833
BUT NOW SHE'S STARTING TO BE
ABLE TO MOVE AROUND AND STUFF,
551
00:31:41,833 --> 00:31:44,767
AND, IN A WAY,
THAT REALLY SCARES ME
552
00:31:44,767 --> 00:31:48,733
BECAUSE I DON'T WANT HER
TO LEAVE ME, SO...
553
00:31:48,733 --> 00:31:52,133
LATELY, HE KIND OF FEELS
THAT I'M PUSHING HIM AWAY
554
00:31:52,133 --> 00:31:54,300
AND NOT WANTING TO BE
WITH HIM,
555
00:31:54,300 --> 00:31:58,300
AND THAT'S NOT QUITE,
YOU KNOW, WHAT THE ISSUE IS.
556
00:31:58,300 --> 00:32:00,533
SOUNDS LIKE
A LOT OF TRANSITION.
557
00:32:00,533 --> 00:32:03,567
HOW MUCH DO YOU THINK
YOUR WEIGHT
558
00:32:03,567 --> 00:32:06,367
IS PROTECTIVE OF YOURSELF?
559
00:32:06,367 --> 00:32:09,467
YOU KNOW,
IN THE PAST, I WAS RAPED.
560
00:32:09,467 --> 00:32:13,667
AND I HAVE A LOT OF WORRIES
ABOUT GETTING SMALLER.
561
00:32:13,667 --> 00:32:15,300
WHAT ARE YOUR CONCERNS?
562
00:32:15,300 --> 00:32:18,067
I MEAN, I HAVEN'T BEEN TOUCHED
SINCE I'VE BEEN BIG,
563
00:32:18,067 --> 00:32:20,967
AND THAT'S PART
OF ME AND MY HUSBAND'S PROBLEM,
564
00:32:20,967 --> 00:32:23,800
BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE
INTIMATE TIME.
565
00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:27,167
I JUST NEVER FEEL IN THE MOOD,
I GUESS,
566
00:32:27,167 --> 00:32:30,067
AND I JUST...DON'T WANT IT.
567
00:32:30,067 --> 00:32:31,633
DO WE HAVE
TO BRING THIS UP?
568
00:32:31,633 --> 00:32:32,900
RUDE.
569
00:32:32,900 --> 00:32:35,067
I NEED AIR. NOPE.
570
00:32:35,067 --> 00:32:36,433
WHAT?
571
00:32:49,900 --> 00:32:52,333
Josh:
BETTIE JO BROUGHT UP A TOPIC
572
00:32:52,333 --> 00:32:55,700
THAT IS REALLY EMOTIONAL FOR ME,
AND I JUST --
573
00:32:55,700 --> 00:33:00,333
I HAD TO GO GET SOME AIR
AND COOL MY HEAD.
574
00:33:00,333 --> 00:33:03,067
IT'S REALLY HARD
FOR ME TO TALK ABOUT,
575
00:33:03,067 --> 00:33:05,300
BUT I WANT US TO BE HAPPY.
576
00:33:05,300 --> 00:33:08,100
SHE'S THE ONLY GIRL
I'VE EVER LOVED.
577
00:33:09,500 --> 00:33:11,567
Dr. Periasamy: I'M GLAD THAT
YOU FELT COMFORTABLE ENOUGH
578
00:33:11,567 --> 00:33:13,800
TO SHARE
AS MUCH AS YOU DID.
579
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:15,433
IT'S NOT EASY,
AND I GET IT.
580
00:33:15,433 --> 00:33:19,300
SO, YOU'RE AFRAID
THAT SOMEHOW YOUR RELATIONSHIP
581
00:33:19,300 --> 00:33:22,800
IS DEPENDENT ON THE WEIGHT
AND THE NEED,
582
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:26,933
AND IF THAT WAS TO GO AWAY,
WHAT WOULD BE LEFT?
583
00:33:26,933 --> 00:33:28,500
WHAT DO YOU THINK, JOSH?
584
00:33:28,500 --> 00:33:29,900
HOW DOES IT AFFECT
585
00:33:29,900 --> 00:33:32,500
WHAT YOUR PERCEPTION
OF THE RELATIONSHIP IS?
586
00:33:32,500 --> 00:33:34,200
I DON'T KNOW
HOW YOU'D PUT THAT.
587
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,400
WHAT ARE SOME REASONS, LIKE,
YOU KIND OF KEEP GOING?
588
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,733
LIKE, WHAT HELPS YOU
TO KEEP GOING?
589
00:33:39,733 --> 00:33:41,367
MY ANSWER IS HER.
590
00:33:41,367 --> 00:33:42,933
OKAY.
591
00:33:42,933 --> 00:33:45,233
SO KIND OF LOVE
AND THAT AFFECTION
592
00:33:45,233 --> 00:33:46,733
THAT YOU HAVE
IN THE RELATIONSHIP.
593
00:33:46,733 --> 00:33:49,200
WHAT ABOUT FOR YOU?
594
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:53,500
I MEAN, I WANT
TO ACTUALLY HAVE, YOU KNOW,
595
00:33:53,500 --> 00:33:55,467
A MARRIAGE
LIKE WE WERE BEFORE --
596
00:33:55,467 --> 00:33:57,933
BEFORE I GOT THIS BIG.
597
00:33:57,933 --> 00:34:01,633
IT SOUNDS LIKE, ULTIMATELY,
YOU BOTH WANT TO FIND A WAY
598
00:34:01,633 --> 00:34:07,067
TO HAVE, LIKE, THAT HAPPINESS
IN THE RELATIONSHIP TOGETHER.
599
00:34:08,733 --> 00:34:11,633
OKAY. WELL, IT WAS NICE
MEETING YOU TODAY, OKAY?
600
00:34:11,633 --> 00:34:13,533
THANK YOU.
NICE MEETING YOU.
601
00:34:13,533 --> 00:34:18,067
I THINK IT HELPS UNDERSTANDING
HOW AFRAID JOSH IS.
602
00:34:18,067 --> 00:34:21,300
I THINK TELLING HIM
THAT I'M SCARED OF LOSING HIM
603
00:34:21,300 --> 00:34:25,500
WILL HELP HIM UNDERSTAND
I DO LOVE HIM.
604
00:34:25,500 --> 00:34:27,400
HE NEEDS TO KNOW THAT,
605
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:29,867
BECAUSE I NEED HIM THERE
TO HELP ME DO THIS...
606
00:34:31,733 --> 00:34:33,967
...AND TO DEAL WITH THIS PAIN
FROM MY PAST
607
00:34:33,967 --> 00:34:36,467
THAT'S LEADING TO ALL OF THIS.
608
00:34:36,467 --> 00:34:39,133
WE HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER.
609
00:34:39,133 --> 00:34:43,167
AND I FEEL LIKE, AFTER TODAY,
THAT IT'S POSSIBLE.
610
00:34:57,067 --> 00:34:59,900
IT'S BEEN A GOOD COUPLE MONTHS.
611
00:34:59,900 --> 00:35:03,733
JOSH AND I HAVE BEEN
WORKING HARDER TO EAT HEALTHIER.
612
00:35:03,733 --> 00:35:08,967
IT'S NOT BEEN EASY, BUT DOING IT
TOGETHER HAS HELPED A LOT.
613
00:35:08,967 --> 00:35:14,367
THE DOCTOR SAYS I NEED TO MOVE
AROUND AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.
614
00:35:14,367 --> 00:35:18,533
SO JOSH HAS BEEN TAKING ME
TO THE GYM.
615
00:35:18,533 --> 00:35:22,633
IT'S BEEN
A REALLY GREAT EXPERIENCE.
616
00:35:22,633 --> 00:35:26,267
I FEEL LIKE WE'RE STARTING
TO BECOME A COUPLE AGAIN,
617
00:35:26,267 --> 00:35:29,233
THAT WE ACTUALLY HAVE
A MARRIAGE.
618
00:35:29,233 --> 00:35:30,467
YOU MUST BE BETTIE JO.
619
00:35:30,467 --> 00:35:31,833
YES, I AM.
HI. I'M SUNNY.
620
00:35:31,833 --> 00:35:33,600
I'LL BE YOUR TRAINER
FOR TODAY.
621
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,100
I'LL HAVE YOU TAKE A SEAT
RIGHT OVER HERE.
622
00:35:36,100 --> 00:35:38,767
AND ALL I WANT YOU TO DO
IS JUST A BASIC BICEP CURL.
623
00:35:38,767 --> 00:35:42,767
I DEFINITELY WANT TO KEEP
PUSHING TO LOSE WEIGHT...
624
00:35:42,767 --> 00:35:44,200
PERFECT. GOOD. OKAY.
625
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:48,700
...AND FOR US TO START HAVING
A LIFE TOGETHER AGAIN.
626
00:35:48,700 --> 00:35:50,900
Josh: I THINK
BETTIE JO'S DOING REALLY GOOD,
627
00:35:50,900 --> 00:35:53,067
ESPECIALLY COMING OUT
TO A PUBLIC PLACE LIKE THIS
628
00:35:53,067 --> 00:35:55,100
AND ACTUALLY GETTING INTO IT.
629
00:35:55,100 --> 00:35:56,700
5...6...
630
00:35:56,700 --> 00:35:58,433
IT'S BEEN NICE TO DISCOVER
631
00:35:58,433 --> 00:36:01,167
THAT WE STILL CARE SO MUCH
ABOUT EACH OTHER.
632
00:36:01,167 --> 00:36:05,200
THIS WHOLE PROCESS AND JOURNEY
HAS TAUGHT US THAT.
633
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:06,133
BREATHE OUT.
634
00:36:06,133 --> 00:36:07,600
THREE. THERE YOU GO.
635
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,067
[ GRUNTS ]
636
00:36:09,067 --> 00:36:12,433
MY ARMS DEFINITELY FEEL
LIKE THEY'RE GONNA FALL OFF.
637
00:36:12,433 --> 00:36:14,967
OKAY.
638
00:36:14,967 --> 00:36:18,200
I WAS SCARED WE DIDN'T LOVE
EACH OTHER ANYMORE,
639
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,633
BUT I LOVE JOSH MORE THAN EVER,
640
00:36:20,633 --> 00:36:24,100
AND I KNOW
HE LOVES ME JUST AS MUCH.
641
00:36:24,100 --> 00:36:27,967
WE'RE GOING TO KEEP FIGHTING
FOR ME TO LOSE WEIGHT
642
00:36:27,967 --> 00:36:32,200
AND FOR US TO START HAVING
A LIFE TOGETHER AGAIN.
643
00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:33,367
YOU HAVE FUN?
644
00:36:33,367 --> 00:36:34,900
DEFINITELY.
645
00:36:34,900 --> 00:36:35,933
I'M GLAD YOU LIKED IT.
646
00:36:49,467 --> 00:36:51,700
SO, WE GOT EVERYTHING?
647
00:36:51,700 --> 00:36:53,967
THINK SO.
648
00:36:53,967 --> 00:36:57,067
WITH ALL THE PROGRESS
THAT I'VE MADE,
649
00:36:57,067 --> 00:36:59,067
I THINK I'M READY
TO DO SOMETHING BIG.
650
00:37:07,233 --> 00:37:12,400
I THINK IT'S TIME TO TRY AND
GO BACK HOME AND SEE EVERYONE.
651
00:37:14,267 --> 00:37:16,900
I'M OVER 100 POUNDS LIGHTER NOW,
652
00:37:16,900 --> 00:37:19,700
AND I'M GONNA SHOW EVERYONE
HOW GOOD I'M DOING.
653
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:25,267
NOW WE GOT 140 MILES
DOWN THIS ROUTE.
654
00:37:25,267 --> 00:37:29,600
AND WE ONLY GOT 464
TO GO.
655
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,133
I HOPE
IT'S NOT TOO MUCH FOR ME,
656
00:37:32,133 --> 00:37:34,900
BUT I'M EXCITED TO SEE
EVERYONE RIGHT NOW.
657
00:37:37,067 --> 00:37:41,067
I'M A LITTLE NERVOUS TO SEE
HOW THEY'RE GOING TO REACT.
658
00:37:41,067 --> 00:37:45,233
HOPEFULLY, THEY SEE
THE PROGRESS I'VE MADE.
659
00:37:45,233 --> 00:37:47,200
IT WILL BE REALLY DISCOURAGING
660
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,767
IF THEY DON'T SEE
ANY DIFFERENCE IN ME.
661
00:38:05,067 --> 00:38:08,067
Bettie Jo: I'M EXCITED TO SEE
EVERYONE RIGHT NOW.
662
00:38:08,067 --> 00:38:11,767
BUT I'M A LITTLE NERVOUS
ON HOW THEY'RE GONNA REACT.
663
00:38:11,767 --> 00:38:14,067
KNOCK, KNOCK.
664
00:38:14,067 --> 00:38:15,433
Cheryl: HELLO?
665
00:38:15,433 --> 00:38:17,300
OH, HI, BETTIE JO.
HI.
666
00:38:17,300 --> 00:38:18,333
HOW YOU FEELING?
667
00:38:18,333 --> 00:38:19,633
I'M FEELING
PRETTY GOOD.
668
00:38:19,633 --> 00:38:21,933
HOW ARE YOU?
669
00:38:21,933 --> 00:38:23,500
WELL, YOU LOOK GOOD.
670
00:38:23,500 --> 00:38:25,100
THANK YOU.
671
00:38:25,100 --> 00:38:26,433
I CAN TELL.
672
00:38:26,433 --> 00:38:28,800
A LOT DIFFERENT THAN WHAT YOU
DID WHEN YOU WENT DOWN THERE.
673
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:31,100
YOU COULDN'T EVEN WALK HARDLY
WHEN YOU WENT DOWN THERE.
674
00:38:31,100 --> 00:38:32,800
YOU LOOK BETTER.
675
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,800
THE MAIN REASON
I WANTED TO DO THIS
676
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,867
WAS SO I COULD ACTUALLY BE
PART OF THE FAMILY
677
00:38:38,867 --> 00:38:43,667
BECAUSE NOT BEING ABLE TO DO
ANYTHING WITH THEM HURT A LOT.
678
00:38:43,667 --> 00:38:45,667
YEAH.
Woman: OH, MY GOD.
679
00:38:45,667 --> 00:38:48,467
Billie Jo: I THINK BETTIE JO
AND JOSH ARE DOING A GREAT JOB.
680
00:38:48,467 --> 00:38:49,933
THEM BEING DOWN THERE IN TEXAS,
681
00:38:49,933 --> 00:38:51,733
THEY HAVE TO DO THINGS
ON THEIR OWN,
682
00:38:51,733 --> 00:38:54,067
AND I THINK IT'S MAKING
THEIR RELATIONSHIP STRONGER
683
00:38:54,067 --> 00:38:56,500
AND MAKING THEM STRONGER
AS INDIVIDUALS.
684
00:38:56,500 --> 00:38:58,133
I TOLD HER,
FOR EVERY POUND SHE LOST,
685
00:38:58,133 --> 00:38:59,267
I'D GIVE HER A QUARTER.
686
00:38:59,267 --> 00:39:01,467
Cheryl: I WOULD JUST PUT IT
AS A DOLLAR A POUND.
687
00:39:01,467 --> 00:39:02,500
OH, YEAH.
688
00:39:04,167 --> 00:39:05,167
I KNOW.
689
00:39:05,167 --> 00:39:07,300
YEAH, I GUESS SO.
[ CHUCKLES ]
690
00:39:07,300 --> 00:39:08,800
[ CHUCKLES ]
691
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,533
I'M SO HAPPY
I CAME HOME AND DID THIS.
692
00:39:11,533 --> 00:39:16,633
KNOWING THAT THEY ARE PROUD OF
ME MAKES ME WANT TO KEEP GOING.
693
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:35,967
ONE THING
I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO DO
694
00:39:35,967 --> 00:39:38,467
IS FIND A WAY
TO HELP OTHER PEOPLE.
695
00:39:38,467 --> 00:39:43,133
WHEN YOU'RE OVER 600 POUNDS,
YOU NEED EVERYONE TO HELP YOU.
696
00:39:43,133 --> 00:39:46,300
SO I'M VOLUNTEERING
TO HELP PUT TOGETHER FOOD BAGS
697
00:39:46,300 --> 00:39:47,733
FOR CHILDREN IN NEED.
698
00:39:47,733 --> 00:39:50,800
SO, IT'S TWO APPLESAUCE,
ONE CARROT...
699
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:52,333
CARROT.
OKAY.
700
00:39:52,333 --> 00:39:56,600
Bettie Jo: I WANT TO GIVE BACK
BECAUSE I SPENT SO LONG TAKING.
701
00:40:00,467 --> 00:40:04,100
TO BE ABLE TO COME DOWN HERE
BY MYSELF
702
00:40:04,100 --> 00:40:06,533
AND DO SOMETHING TO HELP OTHERS,
703
00:40:06,533 --> 00:40:11,033
I FEEL LIKE I'M BECOMING
MORE THE PERSON I WANT TO BE.
704
00:40:18,300 --> 00:40:22,333
I'VE ALSO BEEN WORKING
ON MY RELATIONSHIP WITH JOSH.
705
00:40:22,333 --> 00:40:26,100
WE LOVED EACH OTHER
WHEN WE GOT MARRIED,
706
00:40:26,100 --> 00:40:29,167
BUT WE WERE NEVER ABLE
TO LIVE LIKE A MARRIED COUPLE.
707
00:40:29,167 --> 00:40:32,467
NOW THAT WE CAN,
WE WANT A FRESH START,
708
00:40:32,467 --> 00:40:35,467
AND JOSH AND I HAVE NEVER
REALLY BEEN ON A DATE.
709
00:40:35,467 --> 00:40:36,667
THANK YOU.
710
00:40:36,667 --> 00:40:40,267
I'VE ALWAYS BEEN SO BIG,
I COULDN'T REALLY GO OUT.
711
00:40:42,733 --> 00:40:45,400
[ CHUCKLES ]
YOU GOT IT ON YOUR NOSE.
712
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:48,867
MM-MM-MM-MM-MMM.
713
00:40:48,867 --> 00:40:50,500
DO YOU NEED
SOME MORE NAPKINS?
714
00:40:50,500 --> 00:40:51,967
PLEASE.
715
00:40:51,967 --> 00:40:56,067
Josh:
I THINK, WITH MY FEAR
716
00:40:56,067 --> 00:40:58,567
OF BETTIE JO LOSING THE WEIGHT
AND LEAVING ME,
717
00:40:58,567 --> 00:41:01,633
I'M GETTING
TO A COMFORTABLE PLACE WITH IT.
718
00:41:01,633 --> 00:41:03,733
IT DON'T FRIGHTEN ME
SO MUCH ANYMORE.
719
00:41:03,733 --> 00:41:06,567
WE'VE COME A LONG WAY
SINCE WE'VE BEEN HERE.
720
00:41:06,567 --> 00:41:09,100
SO, WHAT DO YOU FORESEE
OUR FUTURE?
721
00:41:09,100 --> 00:41:11,867
HOPEFULLY HAVING A HOUSE.
722
00:41:14,067 --> 00:41:15,933
YEAH.
723
00:41:17,733 --> 00:41:19,333
Bettie Jo:
I'M SO THANKFUL THIS JOURNEY
724
00:41:19,333 --> 00:41:22,467
HAS SHOWED ME
JUST HOW MUCH I LOVE HIM
725
00:41:22,467 --> 00:41:26,067
AND TO KNOW
HOW MUCH HE LOVES ME.
726
00:41:26,067 --> 00:41:29,367
AND I WANT TO KEEP DOING
NEW THINGS WITH JOSH.
727
00:41:29,367 --> 00:41:33,500
OH. WE COULD DO OUR RECEPTION
UNDER THAT THING.
728
00:41:33,500 --> 00:41:36,067
MM-HMM.
729
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:45,367
TODAY, WE ARE GOING TO
DR. NOWZARADAN'S FOR A WEIGH-IN.
730
00:41:45,367 --> 00:41:47,633
I'M GETTING REALLY CLOSE
TO THE 400s,
731
00:41:47,633 --> 00:41:51,600
AND I CAN'T REMEMBER
WHEN I WAS THAT SMALL.
732
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,100
Josh: THAT'S AWESOME.
733
00:41:54,100 --> 00:41:55,533
WAY TO GO.
734
00:41:55,533 --> 00:41:59,100
SO, FINALLY
UNDER 500 POUNDS, HUH?
735
00:41:59,100 --> 00:42:01,067
YES.
FEEL A LOT BETTER.
736
00:42:01,067 --> 00:42:02,800
FEEL LIKE
A DIFFERENT PERSON?
737
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:03,800
YEP.
738
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,100
BETTIE JO IS STICKING WITH IT,
739
00:42:06,100 --> 00:42:10,067
AND I'M REALLY PROUD
OF BOTH OF THEM FOR DOING THAT.
740
00:42:10,067 --> 00:42:12,633
AND SO, THINGS ARE GETTING
BETTER FOR YOU, HUH?
741
00:42:12,633 --> 00:42:14,100
A LOT BETTER.
742
00:42:14,100 --> 00:42:17,867
I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT SHE
WILL GET TO HER TARGET WEIGHT.
743
00:42:17,867 --> 00:42:19,833
Bettie Jo:
I KNOW I HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO,
744
00:42:19,833 --> 00:42:25,400
BUT I KNOW I CAN DO IT
BECAUSE I HAVE JOSH.
745
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,633
AND THAT MEANS THE WORLD TO ME.
746
00:42:27,633 --> 00:42:32,067
I HAVE HOPE FOR THE FIRST TIME
IN A LONG WHILE.
