But despite the pushback, Jaz simply says, "I need ya'll support." Indeed, in the June 3 series premiere, Jaz had a conversation with her doctor Dr. Sarvenaz Nouri during which he emphasized the serious risks she faces. 'If you don't lose weight and if you don't get the weight loss surgery to lose weight,' he explained, 'you will not survive for that long." He added that she still has "about 130 pounds" to lose before she can get the surgery, as he wants her to be around 500 pounds. And she took his words seriously as she thought of what's at stake, especially with a 10-year-old daughter at home. 'I'm very scared,' Jaz said. 'How many days I got left? How many days I got left to be a parent? How many days I got left to be an auntie, a sister, a daughter and a best friend?' And while Jaz's mom and grandma are worried for her when it comes to taking surgical measures, Nesha is standing by Jaz's side, as she emphasized in the first episode, "Whatever she has to do, I'm in full support."

Justin Baldoni's Lawyer Says Blake Lively's Victory Is 'False'
Originally appeared on E! Online Justin Baldoni's lawyer has a lot more to say. One day after the It Ends With Us director's $400 million countersuit against Blake Lively—as well as her husband Ryan Reynolds and publicist Leslie Sloane—was officially dismissed by a judge June 9, his attorney stressed that the legal battle is far from over. 'Ms. Lively and her team's predictable declaration of victory is false,,' Baldoni's lawyer Bryan Freedman said in a statement to E! News June 10. 'So let us be clear about the latest ruling.' Indeed, in legal documents obtained by E! News, judge Lewis J. Liman ruled that Baldoni and his associates had failed to prove defamation in their filing and to prove that 'Lively's threats were wrongful extortion rather than legally permissible hard bargaining or renegotiation of working conditions.' (Baldoni's $250 million lawsuit against was also dismissed.) However, the judge ruled that Baldoni can refile an amended complaint on the allegations of tortious interference with contract, relating to Reynolds and Lively, and breach of implied covenant, relating to Lively by June 23. And, according to Freedman, Baldoni's case against Lively goes far deeper than his dismissed claims of defamation. More from E! Online Justin Bieber Slams "Transactional Relationships' After Hailey Bieber Split Rumors Glen Powell's Ex Gigi Paris Breaks Silence on Sydney Sweeney Romance Rumors Are Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Married? Here's the Truth 'This case is about false accusations of sexual harassment and retaliation and a nonexistent smear campaign, which Ms. Lively's own team conveniently describes as 'untraceable' because they cannot prove what never happened,' Freedman continued. 'Most importantly, Ms. Lively's own claims are no truer today than they were yesterday, and with the facts on our side, we march forward with the same confidence that we had when Ms. Lively and her cohorts initiated this battle and look forward to her forthcoming deposition, which I will be taking.' Meanwhile, Lively—who sued Baldoni in January for emotional distress and loss of wages that she says occurred during the filming of It Ends With Us—went on to share gratitude for the support she received following Baldoni's initial filing. 'Like so many others, I've felt the pain of a retaliatory lawsuit, including the manufactured shame that tries to break us,' Lively wrote in a June 9 statement on her Instagram Story. 'While the suit against me was defeated, so many don't have the resources to fight back.' Following her legal win, Lively said she was 'more resolved than ever' to stand for women's rights to protect themselves, and went on to share resources. She concluded with a note to those who supported her in her own legal endeavor, 'I will never stop appreciating or advocating for you.'
