It was concerning to see the footage from 5 years ago to now and how many of the kids are now struggling with weight issues.
Of course heredity and how they are being fed come into play, but I wonder if when they all lived together the kids were more active together, and now they are not as much.
Also, weight gain can be caused when kids/adults eat their feelings. IMO there isn't enough junk food available to comfort what it must be like growing up in this family.
Both the boys and girls have packed on the pounds since the move. Being someone who understands weight gain and the importance of a healthy lifestyle, I feel sorry that these kids did not have proper guidance. Weight issues this early can really cause medical issues.
Meri looked happy and healthy before Robyn. She now looks aged, stressed, overweight, and her skin is purple!?! It is so obvious how miserable life became when Robyn entered.
This episode just made it clear how selfish it was for Kody to bring Robyn in. I am beyond confused on why Meri pushed Kody to her? Only thing that would make sense is if Meri too had a crush on Robyn and wanted her around. That would make some great TV!
What on earth is their belief/religion anyway? Robyn mentioned knowing Meri in a different life, yet their "church" talked about God? The fact that they hold their own church and do not have a place to go where others share the same belief and they can worship together frightens me. That seems more like mind control and a cult like behavior.
Best part was when Logan said he is not following any religion currently which is code for I am free from my crazy family, living in an apartment with friends, and getting plenty of action all night.
On a side note...what is up with that anthropologist guy always having a COKE can in his hand? Maybe it was a spitter? The PMS mood made that beyond annoying. Its the little things ya know!
Shocker that this family has money issues, newsflash- you don't go to a movie and buy concessions when you have that many people in your family. You choose this lifestyle, accept that certain things like eating out and movies aren't always an option. I would hope that was a TLC credit card and they pick up the bill, but when Janelle said they only do it 4 times a year,I knew it wasn't. SMH.
