SILVER SPRING, MD – May 5, 2017 – After a lot of thoughtful consideration and prayer, Tia Mann decides to undergo weight-loss surgery on the next episode The Manns airing Tuesday, May 9 at 8 p.m. ET on TV One.

The big day for Tia’s weight-loss surgery finally arrives, but knowing the complications that Tamela experienced during her surgery, the whole family is concerned. Tia, however, remains optimistic despite the potential risks.

“I’m looking forward to being a much healthier person,” said Tia. “I’m not saying that I’m not healthy now, but I’ll be a little slimmer, a little healthier and won’t have to worry about the knees hurting so bad.”

Herschel is taking on a second job as a handyman, but Sonya is experiencing trust issues at the thought of her husband being around other women. After she secretly goes through Herschel’s phone to contact his client and gets caught, they both decide to seek David and Tamela’s advice to settle the argument.

Meanwhile, Tia’s life changing procedure awakens David Jr.’s spirit to take action in his own life by facing his desires to finally get baptized.  Tamela and David Sr. attempt to finish their marriage book, but not before further research that causes tension between the two of them.
