03x03 - Tammy's New Squeeze

[bunniefuu]

Previously on
the 1000-lb Sisters...

The nurse could've
kept Tammy on the right track

and given me time
with my family.

I need this to work

How do you feel about
Amy farting all the time?

And Tammy burping
all the time.

And maybe a little bit
of diarrhea.

Ew.

What do y'all fart out?
Which one farting all the time?

Her.

I'm kinda worried
because I have a weigh-in

at the doctor's
that's coming up.

So I either make back
the target weight

or there's a damn good
possibility

that he's not going to
let me have my surgery.

Uh, it's time to find a chair.

Aww.

Well, I don't want your heart
hurt again.

You say you got this,
but then...

I am a little worried. Tammy
does not have the best track record

when it comes to finding guys that would
actually help her with her weight loss journey.

Quack quack.

Oh, ew.

Today is the nurse's
first day on the job.

Thank God,
we finally picked a person.

Tammy wants a friend.

And I need somebody to
help her get more independent.

So, that was the whole...

and she was just fun
to kick it with.

Come in.

Hello.

- Hi.
- Hello, son.

How y'all doing?

- How are you? Good.
- I'm good, how are you doing today, Amy?

I'm a home helper
for 30 years.

I'm from Henderson, Kentucky

I'm a pretty easy going person.

I like to help people.

I'm just who I am.

What you see is what you get.

Amy and Tammy, you can tell they're sisters,
they look like they're pretty close.

They're kinda entertaining.

So, what we gonna do today?

Okay, hey, you like to cook?

Just to the mailbox and back
or something.

God damn it, Amy, no.

You don't want to?

Tammy.

Keeping Tammy mobile
and up, doing stuff is important

because if she losses her
mobility, she will be bed-bound.

After that is death.

Okay,
you go ahead and pee.

I need Tisa
to keep Tammy on track

and get Tammy exercising

and she's there to help
clean, help cook.

Help is the key word there,
not do it for her.

So, I want to pull Tisa away to the
side, to let her know the run down.

Oh, really?

Does she act like that?

Really?

Aww, well, we'll be...
I'm gonna do my best with her.

She's just got to do
some trusting.

Yeah.

My first impression of Tammy,
you gotta kinda have to push her.

I think she just got to have
somebody there with her to help her

and keep her going
'cause we all have our days.

It might be some day, she might
say "b*tch, get out of here."

That's cool. 'Cause I
ain't going nowhere today.

So, what
we're going to have to eat?

Do you use a cook book?

Are you one of those person's with a little
bit of this and a little bit of that?

So, you're not giving out any recipes, are you?

I wouldn't say I'm excited to
have a stranger in my house,

going through my things.

But it might be nice to have
someone to talk to and kick it with.

- You want a salad? No salad.
- No. Hell no.

But you could steam
that broccoli and cauliflower.

I'm not making
hamburger patties.

Tammy and Tisa are having a
discussion about the meal prep.

But Tammy of course
has to give her an attitude.

The whole idea
of getting a home health nurse

was to make life easier
for Tammy and me.

But if Tammy and Tisa can't get
along, there ain't no way for this to work.

Hey, let's get,
let's get chopping.

I'mma put the meat in here
and you get that fire going.

Well, you gonna help me,
aren't you?

Uh, you gonna starve me
to death.

Where'd you learn
how to cook?

Uh, girl.

Tisa and I
seem like a pretty good team.

Having Tisa around is a lot
better than having Amy around.

She got this little
stove going, I love it.

Okay, everybody, this is good,
nice and healthy, high in protein.

This is good.

Mm. Mm!

and we can go back to just
having fun and being sisters.

Go get in the van, come on.

Move, a little. Ooh!

Today, I'm
channeling myself off the oxygen,

Somedays I need my oxygen
little more than the others, but...

You remember her?

She hears the other dogs.

Okay, so what do you want
to do with her today?

- The works.
- All right, hey, baby.

We've had her for 13 years.

Michael found her,
he got her off somebody.

And they're both my b*tch.

All right, sweetheart.

Sometimes, these dogs, they'll get
like a fishy smell or something like that

or they're scooting their butt or
they'll be biting above their tail.

That's their a**l glands
filling up

and they need to express
every now and then.

That's a serious question.

What've you been up to?

Of course.

We've always had rocky times
with our mom

and she hasn't always believed
in Tammy and me losing weight.

We're doing
the bariatric surgery.

I don't think you'll make it.
I think you'll chicken out.

I'm kinda touched Tammy
brought up Mother's Day

because we never really did much as
a family growing up for Mother's Day.

But this is my first
Mother's Day as a mom.

Man, we do that
all the time though.

- Yeah.
- We could do that anytime.

Yeah.

She likes
drinking tea a lot

and we never been
to like a high tea brew.

What high tea, you have
to, you have to drink it high?

No, it doesn't.

No.

She did great.
Thanks for bringing her in.

- Okay, thank you.
- Thank you guys.

- Thank you guys.
- Thank you.

Thank you.

Ew, I just like...
little update,

been living life.

No.

Phillip and I are together.

That's my man. I'm his woman.

He told me he likes big girls.

He's just a supporter.

He's all for me losing weight
and getting healthier.

Thank you guys for watching.

Bye.

- Hello.
- Hi.

Welcome to the Miller House.

Today is my very first
Mother's Day.

So we're going to have tea.

One of my great grandma,

was the Queen of England.

Excuse me.

Tammy's secretly
dating this dude.

He's got a fetish.

Because Tammy's big.

Answer me this.
Are you engaged?

It took me 33 years
to be a mother.

32. Whatever.

Today is my very first
Mother's Day.

So we're going to high tea.

High tea is,

something snooty b*tches do.

With their pinkies out.

No.

After Amy had the baby,

she become a different person.

Oh, there's a lift.

Yeah, I forgot there was
an elevator type dealio.

Yeah, right there it is.

Hi, Mom.

- Hello.
- How you doing?

- Hi.
- Hello.

Good to see you all.
Welcome to the Miller House.

I am Valarie Roberts.

I am Kentucky's Etiquette Lady.

This Mary Poppins looking b*tch.

Oh, she's in for it.

We're gonna break this lady.

So, today we're gonna
have an afternoon tea.

Have y'all ever had
an afternoon tea?

Or formal tea?

Or a high tea?

Okay. Well, how special.

We're gonna get into this today.

So, there's usually
three courses

that make up an afternoon tea.

The first course

is always going
to be your tea sandwiches.

The second course
is muffins or scones.

And then your last course
is the dessert.

There is a lot
of sugar on this table.

These little crustless
sandwiches

that look like
a two-year-old made.

Muffins.

And this piece of cake
called penny fours.

And on top of that,

there's cubes of sugar.

Are British people
non-diabetics?

Let's see what
this taste like.

Pour the hot water in.

I mean, I don't do it.

No?

You drink tea.

Oh.

Not really.

I don't drink coffee.

Tea.

Cocoa.

None of it.

You will really like this.
It's delicious.

Just try it.

- We're gonna try it with you.
- Yes.

You want lemon or...

I don't like lemon in tea.

Excuse me.

- No.
- You sip it.

No.

Use a spoon.

- No.
- Jerry.

Well.

I did bring

a couple of hats.

I think this will look good with
your green that you have on.

God.

I love it. I think
you all look good.

It's very Kentucky.

The hats were ridiculous.

Excuse me.

My grandma's brother
has this family tree.

Going back generations
and generations.

And apparently,

one of my greats

I don't know how far...
a great,

grandma was
the Queen of England.

Oh.

You're so ghetto.

My god.

- She took it all.
- Good God.

Why did you...
You could have put it on...

Amy, I taught you
better than that.

I think Amy's in denial.

She can't continue
eating this way

if she wants to lose weight.

I'm just taking a bite,
one bite of everything.

b*tch you put that whole
of petit four in your mouth.

Oh it's
too much icing.

Stop.

bee.

No.

Get out.

Get, get off me you
sons of b*tches.

Tammy.

Since you been outta
the uh, rehab place,

is it easier or harder

to stay on your weight loss?

So far, so good.

I just wanna eat fruit

and lunch meat.

- Just not the...
- Yeah, lunch meat's bad for you.

Well, I mean...

I just want something
quick and easy.

And how's it going
doing the exercises?

I don't have the equipment.

But walking across the street

or down the driveway.

That's exercise.

Any physical movement
is exercise.

I know.

Ready to get the hell
outta here.

Oh.

Seeing Tammy struggle to
get from the restaurant to the van

is very hard to watch.

I wanna talk to Tisa,

about is Tammy really doing

what she's supposed to do.

Because if you're having
that much trouble,

you're not doing what
you're supposed to be doing.

Here you go.

Have you seen Tammy's Instagram?

- No.
- You might wanna check it out.

He's got a fetish.

Because Tammy's big

He wants her to stay

morbidly obese.

What the hell has she got into?

Eight.

Nine.

Ten.

Tammy and Tisa have been
working together for two weeks now.

And, sometimes
when I go over there,

I am seeing Tisa working.

And Tammy's sitting
in her chair.

But,

I am hiring you to help her.

Not do it for her.

Now, this is...
you can do yourself.

It's those

uh, Kegel exercises, you know
just sit in your chair and do it.

If you can shake your thing
I know you...

What is it?

Tighten up your butt muscles.

And you can sit there
and do that all day long.

- I can't.
- Huh?

I can't.

Come on.

Tammy
can try to charm you.

I think that

Tammy is trying
to be a manipulator.

So,

me and Tisa need to talk.

I'm trying to make sure Tisa's
pushing Tammy

to lose this weight.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Hey Tisa.

What's going on?

Um, I just wanna see
how's Tammy doing.

Well you know what
it's getting better.

You know my first,
first couple of days,

kinda getting used to me
and stuff.

Each day I go, she seem like
she's getting a little more happy.

You know, smiling more.

And, you know.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

So do you have any
concerns about her?

My main concern is just trying
to keep her mobility.

You know where she
can stay mobile.

Just little things that she
can do. I try to do to help her.

What type of exercises
she can do?

She can exercise her arms.

She can exercise her fingers.

But you gotta make her do it.

What the?

What...
this is not working out.

Maybe your finger

I guess but,

the fingers are not
the fat part.

You gotta work out
the whole body, girl.

How's the walking going?

Well, you know that walk
is gonna be a struggle.

And when I say something
about that walk

and it's just like a,

a defense.

And like she said, I'm already
doing stuff with my hands, I cook.

I say, yeah you're awesome
with your hands.

Yeah, but
most of the times she is like,

"No, I'm not walking today.

I've done this
and I already done that."

And I say, "Oh, okay." But everyday
I'd go, I'mma see would she walk.

Tammy did

like 30 to an hour worth of physical
therapy while she was up in rehab

everyday.

But now she ain't doing.

I'm really pissed at this point.

Tammy had a fire in her a*s

to lose this weight.

She came outta rehab
ba*ls blazing.

So...

I'mma try my hardest.

I'm praying.

I'm praying. Cause I don't
want her to have a back.

I wanna her to keep
going forward.

- Yeah me too.
- Yeah.

Hey babe, where you at?

Right here.

Ever since I stepped
on the scale at Tammy's house,

I've been walking

and really buckled down
on what I've been eating.

And now I just hope and pray
that I've done enough

to get back on track.

Have you seen Tammy's Instagram?

Lord help me, no.

Yeah. You might wanna
check it out.

- Is it that bad?
- Mm.

What the hell has she got into?

Wow.

Read that.

Currently dating The BBW King.

He only associates

with women who

weigh 300 plus pounds.

BBW

stands for big beautiful women.

But, you can't love
somebody for their size.

He's got a fetish.

Because Tammy's big.

This says if I married you
at 450,

and you get down to 299,

just know,

Am out.

That's ridiculous.

That's just shallow as.

He just likes fat girls.

That's the problem
we have at hand,

is Tammy will not stay on track

if she's up there doing this.

The worst part about it is, is she is
going to have to be talked to about it.

'Cause we did tell her we
weren't gonna take no bull.

And this is bull.

- We just don't want it turn into another Jerry thing.
- It's not. He's not Jerry.

Step on that
scale and show...

I'm not doing it.

Thanks for picking me up, bubby.

Hey, no problem.
It's what we good for.

Yeah.

I recently found out that Tammy
is secretly dating this dude.

And his name is BBWKing online.

So, me and Misty
are heading over to Tammy

and maybe talk
some sense into her.

I haven't heard nothing
from her in over a week.

Well, that's because she's
talking to that new dude.

It might be some of it because we
were so down on Jerry about enabling her.

When she come home
from that facility,

Tammy had a fire to lose weight

and do it on her own,
that I've never seen in Tammy.

Yeah, and the next thing you know,
it's like somebody flipped the switch.

I got to talk to Amy

and found out that Tammy's
been slacking on her diet.

And it's really depressing

'cause she knows what's at risk.

And she just kinda
seems like she don't care.

Amy done tell me she didn't
want no part going in there

and talking to Tammy
'bout her boyfriends.

If Amy goes in there with this,
it'll be a knock-down, drag-out fight.

So, Amy just don't want
no part of it.

Sometimes, I really
don't think Tammy cares.

As long as she's happy,
and with somebody,

she's willing to sacrifice everything
for five minutes of happiness.

I think the boyfriend
is a hindrance.

On the internet, I was reading that he
doesn't want her to get below 300 pounds

and he's the BBWKing.

So, yeah, it was...
It's a big concern.

You start talking to a dude,
four days later

it's true happiness,
like, they done fell in love.

And yesterday,
or day before that,

she started putting down,
like, that engagement rings on.

- Post...
- Oh, I know. I've seen that Tammy was engaged.

She is?

That's what I've seen
on Facebook this morning.

First of all, how the hell you gonna
go from meeting somebody one day

and seven days later,
you got engaged to.

I don't know.

But we are going to have
to figure out a game plan

because, we'd waited too long
to say anything about Jerry.

Last time,
we let it go on for...

Yeah, and she gained all
that weight and just, it's...

You know, six or eight months,
we let him go on and all of a sudden,

you know, she done
gain 90 pounds.

We just, have to make sure we
don't have an attitude when we...

and that's hard for us.

Ooh!

Okay.

Knock, knock!

How's it going?

- Good, I guess!
- We were all just wondering how it was going.

Are you doing your steps,
watching what you eat?

Yes.

So, what kinda food
you've been eating?

Everyday?

Chris and Misty are here being
nosy, asking all kinds of questions.

Tammy...

I've been hearing
some , girl.

- I'm all about this. We're not doing...
- I'm very, very concerned.

My biggest concern is, Tammy,
when you come home from the facility,

- you had a fire to lose weight.
- Yeah.

I still do.

Even though he said if you
get under 300, he's outta here?

He never said that to me.

He never said that to you
but he's put it on social media.

But why is he doing
like that and then being with you?

He's trying to show
other big women

that they're beautiful too,
like, supporting them.

- Does he support you for your diet?
- Yes.

- Yeah.
- I guess I'll have to wait until we get there.

In order for you to be
around here 20 more years,

you have to stay on track
with your diet.

We gotta get ready for this doctor's
appointment that comes up shortly

for Dr. Smith.

And you know, when you step on
that damn scale, it ain't gonna lie for us.

Do you think you'll be ready
for your doctor's appointment?

You feel like
you lost any weight?

It's been about ten days
since I've seen Tammy.

And, you know, I think
she's gained some weight.

I didn't say this.

Where all we wanna do is
make sure you stay on track,

so you can be self-sufficient,

and go do whatever the hell
you want when you want.

But you're gonna have to get
off your a*s and put the effort.

Because you done
started pissing me off.

Because you're trying to
shut down right now. So I'm--

No, not. I'm saying
talking to y'all.

I am going to do it.

Me and Misty are here
at Tammy's today

to talk to her about what we've
heard on, you know, social media.

The rumors about Tammy
and this dude getting engaged,

and I hope to God
it's really not true.

Well, I assumed,
I assumed you would.

- The... the... then...
- But we wanna ask.

I would come to you
and tell you.

No, no.

Well, that's what's on the
damn internet.

- I didn't. Hey.
- Wouldn't you think, I would come and tell you?

Hold up now.

It would be nice for someone to
take my side every now and then.

I didn't wanna do this
today.

That's the problem. You don't
wanna do nothing any day.

Step on that scale
and show me.

Because you know you haven't.
And that, is the bottom-line.

We're not trying
to hurt your feelings or ours.

whatever, man.

Why can't I
just be happy, for once?

We were just worried
because he has made it known

that he doesn't
want you under 300.

What if I don't wanna
get under 300?

Now, is that you or him?

Me!

Because he's influencing you.

No, he's not.

Yeah, Tammy shocked me
real bad when she said

maybe she didn't wanna
get under 300 pounds.

I'm hoping she doesn't give up and
go back to doing what she was doing.

But, I guess, the scales is
gonna tell it all. I don't know.

Okay, Phillip don't do that.

But that's all
we were worried about,

is, him influencing
your choices.

Your track record says...

Let the track record go. Your
track record ain't too clean, either.

But, I'm not the one
in your position.

Doesn't matter.

It does matter if you wanna
live wh... a while longer.

We do not wanna
have to bury you.

But, you still need to do
what the hell the doctor...

- wants you to do.
- What am I not doing?

- The walking.
- Walking , whatever.

I don't wanna walk outside
because, one, it's either raining,

or, two, it's hot. So, that's
why I want the damn nurse

to take me somewhere
but I haven't went anywhere.

So, are you walking around
more in the house?

No, we're not.

All right.

Next time on


You look like you have a mullet.

I'm Billy Ray Cyrus, b*tch.

Wigs could do a lot
for your looks.

I am from the planet Mars.

It was!
It was!

Me and Michael called
a home organizer

because I want a nice,
clean environment for Gage.

Having people come here

is so embarrassing.

This is Tammy's first
appointment since she's left rehab.

Let's step up here
on the scale.

If Tammy's weight
starts going back up,

it's kinda like
game over for her.
