Stephan, however, has to go to hospital + Charline is subjected to massive bullying.
Christian (41) from Essen goes to the indoor swimming pool at least once a week. The 215-kilo man likes to exercise in the water. There he can escape gravity, so to speak. Since he can't stand for long because of his back pain, he orders drinks on the internet. They are then delivered directly to the kitchen. Then groceries are brought in as well. Christian did a good job of shopping, including chips and cheesecake. Charline (25) from Hamburg has also been shopping. Now they are cooking. Charline loves chicken nuggets. At least there is a good portion of salad to go with them. Then she tells us about her life: She used to be a very cheerful person who was liked. Then her father died. She became lonely and sought comfort in food. She broke off an apprenticeship as a butcher because of bullying. In the meantime, she has also received repeated messages on the internet that are not exactly nice + make her feel uncomfortable. Meanwhile, Lars (44) from Nordhorn visits his wife Tanja and sister-in-law Sandra at the family snack bar. He wants to prepare his barbecue paradise "Brutzelzwerg" for the start of the season. He also goes to Meppen to an XXL shop and successfully supplies himself with shirts and jeans there. After her treatment in hospital, during which she had liposuction, Lisa (20) from Niederhausen gets in touch with a mobile phone video. She is overjoyed because she really does feel lighter. But Lisa will have to undergo nine more operations. She hopes for a life with less pain and more independence. Meanwhile, Stephan (45) from Mönchengladbach looks at photos with his partner Melanie. Melanie in particular likes to remember earlier times. Stephan was considerably lighter back then. Today he has water in his legs + severe pain. Now he urgently needs to go to hospital.
