My doc is OK with me having peanut butter since, being lactose intolerant, I have a hard time with cheese as a low carb snack. But I know me, so I spend the extra money to buy the little PB cups. One is enough, especially at work, but if I have the jar, it won't be pretty.

Food of the gods.

What's on that plate? Looks huge.

It can't be simple because you've got 600+ lb of food in you. Why do these people question what happens to them out in the world? They're huge. They don't fit in regular chairs, wheelchairs, airplane seats, cabs, you name it. Why are they surprised? Also, and I'm gonna sound like a terrible person, but good grief, will these people stop crying over stuff? Life is gonna be hard for you. Suck it up or change it. These obesees are the most anxiety-ridden, fearful, people I've ever seen.

Jeez. I thought it was a strange front to her top. I think it's a towel. Why does she have a towel on her front? Does she drool?

Quite the fashion choice - big a$$ed polka dots on purple and stripes.

I thought those yellow things were bunches of Peeps. I was ready to give girlfriend a big pass.

200 lbs at 8 yrs old?

Hey Pounders! Of course, Aliya jr. calls when the show begins...

I watched one too many 'Beat Bobby Flay' one night and ended up dreaming about Bobby and cooking in a restaurant.

I have been thinking about her a lot. Her show is up on YT. I read the comments (people feel as we do here), but cannot watch the show again this soon. I read the reddit comments as well. It still makes me cry to think about her.

I think some of them get to 600 lbs because they do shovel in the food. They take in a ton (no pun intended) of calories very quickly and before their system can register that there's food in their stomachs. I understand it can take 20 minutes for that to happen - which is why I try not to eat too fast, because it's an easy way to over eat.

I am so jealous! Aliya jr & I used to watch MST3K all the time. I should get one of these for his birthday, which is coming soon. I'll get it for him, but I'll keep it safe at my house. 😁

I used to handle 'no fault' divorces, which were an easy way of making some money as a new lawyer (I'd never do it again, however). I can't tell you how many guys get a 2nd family, just walk away from fam #1, and have no idea why the state would be after them for child support. They don't see the kids, they don't want to pay money, they just want to forget fam #1 ever happened.

Amen.

I didn't pay attention to whether Kelly went to Dr Now's office when no one else was there. I was surprised he went out to the cab with her, but maybe that's because she was the only patient at the time? I think he showed her so much care and attention. The next person who says something bad about him will have to come through me.

I have been just beside myself. I had to call my son and cry to him. He hates this show, but I made him just be quiet and let me tell him about this woman. I think he was surprised I was so upset. Shoot, I'm surprised I'm so upset. None of us is promised tomorrow, but that said, I was hoping Kelly would go on to have a nice life and finish her degree. She missed out on so much, for so long. It's just all very sad.

Who here is still crying?

Some of the worst people on the planet get the surgery and are still alive, driving everyone around them insane. One of the few decent people on this show and she has to pass away. I don't watch this show to cry, darn it.

Oh no! 😭

I'm retiring in July. Staying here (son is here). I can't believe 1) I'm old enough to retire and 2) in Iowa. I would have laughed about that 20 yrs ago.

That's a long wave - I live in Iowa now. 👋

She's ordering out???? No!!!

Didn't Dr Now say she was diabetic? No fruit juice for her - unless the physical stress made her go low. Your sugars can go all over the place when stuff like that happens.

I got 2 really nice vegan purses from Poshmark the other week. The discount was great. Of course, now they send me an email every day...
