In the clip, Ty explained to Dr. Procter that he wanted to have weight loss surgery.
"I can't live life to the fullest," he shared, explaining he has difficulty with "simple tasks" like bending over to tie his shoe or pick up things, and walking around without getting out of breath.
When Dr. Procter asked how many times a day Ty eats, he said once or twice daily. "But I gorge myself," he admitted. Ty shared that he typically skips breakfast and often doesn't eat lunch because he is "trying to lose weight' despite knowing "it's not the proper way."
To that, the bariatric surgeon pointed out that not eating anything all day and then having a huge dinner is "a good way to hang on to your weight, for sure."
Dr. Procter then explained to producers, "Ty is eating his highest calorie-laden meal right before eight hours of the most sedentary state of the day, while he's sleeping. His metabolism is going to slow throughout the day, and his body is going to try to store away calories because it doesn't know when the next meal is coming. So that's one of the reasons why he's gotten his weight to where it is today."
