Twit OBVIOUSLY has no problem with her friends & mindless minions bullying and saying hateful crap to Kerryn....not that I ever had much respect for her die-hard supporters, but they can all have each other & Twit & go off on their merry, destructive way....Just another example of Twit's many sets of double standards.

Oh, and EIGHT against one...real tough people there are!!! All of her 'friends' are doing such good things for Twit in the long run....maybe they can each carry a handle on her casket.

Kerryn is the ONE person who's had the b*lls to tell Twit ANY form of truth in any way whatsoever. And Todd calling Kerryn a 'c*unt'--NOT OK in my book...if that kind of comeback is the most intelligent he can come up with, he's lost MAJOR points with me.

I've thought this before as well. Even if they do only show 10 hours out of the 1000 hours of film they shot, I'm SICK of hearing that excuse!!! It's still YOU, Twit, so stop acting like you should be pitied for the 10 hours they do use!!! They're still things YOU said, staged activities YOU agreed participate in, kinds of food in quantities YOU ate, dance class classes YOU led during filming only, etc. etc. etc. Stop using the 10 hours as an excuse---this isn't 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers'---it's the REAL YOU, EVERY MINUTE in these episodes. Episodes YOU agreed to do, signed a TLC contract for & take a nice big TLC paycheck home for!!! Maybe some introspection is in order if you aren't happy with how you're portrayed in your 10 hours.

Do you think Twit reacts with anger, denial, deflection, etc. when she's confronted with truths about how her weight is killing her, damaging her body, and has a serious food addiction, is that it cuts a little too close to home in how she really feels about herself, and that she realizes that no matter what she says and does, nobody's really buying the fact that she 'loves being fat'? (Like people are seeing through the cracks of the façade she's built and are seeing that she's truly miserable and knows she isn't fooling anybody?) That's why she gets so flustered when Kerryn confronts her & is able to say the things so many of us are thinking? (I'm not saying it 100% right, but I hope you can all read between the lines to know what I'm trying to say.)

@mamadrama-'Exactly!" to all of this^^!!! PERFECTLY SAID! Bravo!!!

Kerryn absolutely owns the addictions she deals with in her life (alcohol, cigarettes) so I think it gives her SO much more validity to her confronting Twit about the food addictions she has and her refusal to admit to them and instead deny, deny, deny... I'd love to see that kind of approach in tonight's episode.

I too, am looking forward to Kerryn vs Twit tonight. Kerryn is very sharp and so quick with her responses & facts. I can't wait to see how Twit reacts when Kerryn shuts down every reason, fact and explanation Twit comes up with. I too, have real difficulty watching Twit for long periods. (I don't want to throw too many things at my TV and break the darn thing!) When I watch the show, I have such fear for the young, impressionable people who buy everything she says, hook, line & sinker. Twit's message, for the most part, is a deadly one, and I really worry about the young people she is harming by spouting the garbage that is her message. Twit's version of 'No BS' is loaded with BS, falsehoods, twisted facts and 'Twit's truths', and I really do believe it could have deadly consequences for those who blindly believe everything she says. I would LOVE to see Kerryn confront her about all of this on tonight's show. That would be awesome!!!

According to info from the link above, Twit was a binger/purger AND an Adderall addict in high school (able to get it from friends??? Doesn't sound like she had an Rx for it.) I also remember reading (somewhere on these threads) that her parents tried to monitor her food intake, took her to a nutritionist & hypnotist to help with her food issues. I personally think her parents did those things because they loved her and were trying anything they could to help her-I just don't think they are mean people who only cared about the numbers on the scale. I think when Glenn dropped her off at college & stated that he wished he'd been able to help her lose more weight, I don't think that's the only thing/all he said to Twit, I think it's the version that Twit told everyone. We know Twit lives in a world of 'her truths', and telling people this version garnered her more sympathy. During her first year of college she stated that she continued binging but stopped purging because she was terrified that she'd throw up her oral birth control. She said she'd rather be fat than pregnant, and began gaining huge amounts of weight because of the binging/not purging cycle she was in, and because she could no longer get her hands on Adderall, (which acts as a stimulant/appetite suppressant). It was during this time that she was diagnosed with PCOS. When the show started, all we were told was that her weight gain ic college was due to her PCOS dognosis, nothing was mentioned about no longer having access to Adderall, the continued binging, etc... Another one of 'her truths'? (I believe so.) And a version that garnered her a lot of sympathy because her weight gain seemed to be the result of something out of her control. (Of course now we know a little more about the situation and know there were MANY things other than just PCOS that explain why she gained 100+ pounds that first year in college.) I also think this is why we so often see such sadness in Glenn's eyes, and saw it in the first part of the special. He hears (and so do we) Twit's 'truths' and twisted versions of interactions with cardiologists, nutritionists, etc...and he knows the real truths as to the risks & facts of what Twit's weight is really doing to her body, that it's disabling her and really could kill her someday, and more than likely will, sooner than later. But, he is powerless to change anything for Twit. She's not willing to change on her own and gets angry and defensive and goes into bitch-mode if anyone DARES to disagree with how she presents 'her truths' to the world. (Much more to say from this first special, but will do it later...)

For the posters on this forum....can I just say that I think it would be fun to hang out & have a beer with all of you---(after going for a long, energetic walk, of course)!!! :-)

So you're saying no one has to worry about doing any stairs then, right???

I LOVE this!!! I'd be more than proud to wear a shirt with this emblazoned across the front!!! (And happy to share it's message & meaning.)

1000%-THIS^^^!!! As someone who is supposedly the 'voice' and 'face' of No BS---I would expect that she be the embodiment of her message----that shaming actions and words NEVER happen from her....BUT, Twit has repeatedly shamed others for their appearance (ridiculing Buddy for being too fat for his swim trunks, calling the comedian a 'skinny bitch'). That's someone I view as a total hypocrite. (And I don't care if Buddy is a friend and perhaps the boundaries between the two are different-it still shouldn't happen. Ever.) As the face of No BS, I truly don't care if Twit weighs 50 lbs or 1000 lbs, what size she wears or what color her skin is...but No BS is her platform, so I expect her to live and embody what she preaches. Instead, we see multiple examples of how the rules are different when it comes to her. To me, her words and actions speak louder than any 'No BS' logo or speech ever could. ETA: A bit off-topic...but I swear I'm going to scream if I hear 'body-shame' again....how about 'No People Shame' or 'Don't Shame' instead???

Did anyone else notice how quickly Twit's tears stopped when she realized Tal wasn't affected by them? When he continued with his hard truths, it was like a spigot was instantly flipped to the 'off' position. Heck, I think the fact that her tears didn't work shocked her a little. The more I think about it, it's like she follows a 3-step process to get people to back down...step 1-anger, step 2- tears, step 3-deflection and/or excuses...

MY EYES!!! I'll give Todd credit, he really did well and looked like he was having a lot of fun during the second part of their competition. But that purple dress-there is not enough eye bleach in the world to erase that from my memory! And those panty hose bunched around her ankles...just yuck. There is NO effing way this thing wasn't rigged.

Maybe a Zumba instructor that's never taught? Not sure. But, she could add some Zumba moves to her repertoire of "dance" moves--at least more than "smirk at mirror......stomp, stomp, wave arms, stomp, stomp, wave arms, 'hip wave'.....repeat ad nauseum.....

Did you guys know Twit's a licensed Zumba instructor??? (Per her June 1 tweet...). I can't see her making it through a Zumba class any time in the past couple of years...so maybe it's been a while.

littlemommy----you need to add a warning at the top of a post like that!!! ^^^^ I'm afraid I'm going to have nightmares tonight!!!

I'm wondering if this 'taking a break' thing with Lennie has suddenly come about because Twit's convinced that Roy has a HUGE crush on her.... (This is going to be interesting....)

Whitney is NOT an innocent victim in all of this....she voluntarily signed up to do this show--TLC didn't force her. She is making HUGE money from this show, as well as from her book deal, speaking engagements, TV appearances, etc. ALL of which she has because she agreed to do this show. She could have taken a hard look at previous "reality" stars...the Duggars, Honey Boo Boo, Jon & Kate +8, to see how their lives were affected from a reality show. If she didn't do that, that's on HER. Maybe she thought she was going to be the one person they would show only in a positive light, I don't know, but it's not realistic considering TLC's track record. Twit has a huge need for attention and praise, and I think she's living her dream, honestly. People are constantly telling her how awesome she is, how inspiring she is, how awesome her dancing is..... adoring fans, crowds cheering for her at her speaking engagements and book signings AND money pouring into her bank account. I personally think she's willing to be portrayed in any kind of light in order to keep her ego trip going as long as possible. (ETA: I don't just base my opinion of Twit from her show....read her Facebook posts....she has often been a really nasty, judgemental witch to people there, and TLC has NO involvement in that.)

Checked out Twit's Facebook page this morning---(couldn't stand reading for more than a few minutes) I did see a couple of sentences that STILL have me seeing red... "Thin people benefit from the privilege of having those bodies..." and "I highlight my own struggle in a world where thin people have had and always will have the power". Yeah, Twit, thin people can't be thin because they work really hard at it by exercising and eating right (by not shoveling cupcakes or having someone else put their shoes on, among other things). They may also be thin because of a medical diagnosis or eating disorder... She does nothing but piss me off anymore....

I get what you're saying about wanting to see Twit be a success.... She did not just pick up these nasty traits in the past 2 seasons, I personally think she's been this way her whole life. (The selfishness, bullying, narcissistic personality-among many other things.) I do believe that most of these elements were left on the cutting room floor during the first season. Is TLC showing us more of her negative traits now just for ratings, or are they just getting more "real" and showing us more about her as time goes by??? Probably a bit of both...

I can't even respond to what she looks like in this video... Her reaction and demeanor in telling the story of her ferret's cancer, treatment, surgery and death is INFURIATING!!! I would NEVER laugh about any of my pet's deaths...in fact, I often can't talk about it at all because I still cry when I think about losing them. Dusgusting. Absolutely disgusting.

Hair curled & fluffed to hide her neck & chins...boobs pushed together to enhance her cleavage, pic taken from above...I'm just surprised she doesn't add in the "fish lips" pose so many young girls do nowadays. Love being fat indeed... As far as Todd switching Caitie for Twit in ballroom dancing.... THAT epic meltdown would melt the walls of the dance studio & peg the richter scale!!! Would be interesting to see, for sure.

Double post...
