During the laundry scene Dolly’s voiceover is saying how she left her mom’s house and refuses to go back and yet Mom’s rainbow top is CLEARLY seen with the rest of the clothes. Later Mom told either Dr Paradise or Dr Now, I forget who, that Dolly kept leaving and coming back, leaving and coming back. So the laundry scene had to have been when she was back with her mom despite the voiceover, right? These shows are edited and cobbled together so weird, mixing up the timelines, I never know what’s going on.

I am absolutely exhausted after this episode. Like someone in live chat said, it might make me a bitch but I can’t stand people who cry at everything. Including when they’re happy. The way those two grabbed eachother and ugly cried when Dr Now said he’d give her surgery made me sick. The exclamations of “WE did it” and “OUR surgery” were disgusting, you two are separate people. And for god’s sake Millie had gastric bypass (I did too), she should know that just having the surgery is just the beginning, there was no need to start crying that her baby is going to live now. MARGARET still has to put in the work. I positively loathe both these women and I personally hope we don’t get a follow up because I never want to see them again.

I love stuffing. It involves the gizzard, liver, and heart. My Grandmother always wanted the neck. If you grew up with family that didn't waste anything.
This New Year is the time for pork and sauerkraut, for a good year ahead.
I make my stuffing with the gizzard liver and heart like my mom did, the stuffing with some gravy is my favorite part of the Thanksgiving dinner.

Did you see how she reacted when Dr Now told her he would put her in the hospital on a controlled diet if she didn’t step up the weight loss? And THEN she magically lost more weight? She could have done that well from the beginning, she just didn’t want to. She literally had to be threatened with hospitallization. That pissed me off.
I had gastric bypass in 2012. I wasn’t as big as these people and I guess food wasn’t as much as an addiction with me, but I followed every direction I was given by my surgeon regarding the pre-surgery diet and I met every goal she asked of me. The people who deliberately don’t try to help themselves make me angry.

I intensely dislike tomato soup and I am pretty sure I have never had a grilled cheese sandwich. I need to find a place which serves grilled cheese without tomato soup. 🙂
We had chicken noodle soup (just the boxed stuff) and grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner tonight, a common meal in our house in the cooler months.

In Arizona you can have a spouse as a paid caregiver. According to this site, they have a program called Self Directed Attendant Care (SDAC) wherein "Medicaid program hires spouse through an agency."
What about Texas? If they are married, would his income be in danger if they moved there?

I wouldn’t bring this up if she had been a decent person, but...
I mentioned we are the same age. In one of the photos of her teenage self early in the episode it showed her posing with a giant “95” so, class of ‘95, right? Except it should have been ‘93 (I graduated in ‘92 but was a year ahead). So for some reason, either starting late or being held back or both, she was not one but two years behind. Unless her school just...went longer? 🤷🏻♀️

I must confess we saw the familiar packaging and looked at each other... “KFC!!!”
Followed a few minutes later by, “When’s the last time we had KFC?”.
Neither of us could recall.
I had the same thought last week and decided to get some KFC (surprisingly they don’t have an app). I know it had been years since I had it, and now I remember why. The flavor was ok but it was so greasy it made me a little ill. I let my parrot have the biscuit. He wasn’t terribly impressed, lol.

The scene where she says she asked Sandy what she could do to help out: I thought I heard her say "I offered to paint her house." I did an actual double take. She painted her nails... sort of. Close up of her getting polish all over Sandy's finger.
Ok I heard “house” too but said nothing because I thought for sure I was the only one. How does “nails” sound like “house” anyways? But it did!
Btw...Cindy and I have the same first name and are the same age. I don’t know why you guys needed to know that. But now you do.

I decided in college to lose weight by following my very thin friend through the cafeteria line and asking for exactly what she did. My heart leapt up when I beheld the triple helping of mashed potatoes she asked for, and I did the same. As we sat and ate, I was brought almost to tears to see that after two bites of potatoes, Victoria put out her cigarette in the rest of them. Portion control!
Same, I followed my thin athletic friend through the college cafeteria and ate what she did for at least a week. She ate a LOT of fruit. I started feeling crappy and went to the doctor and that’s when I was diagnosed with diabetes. 😕 We can’t all just eat the same way and be healthy, despite what a lot of thin people think.

I wonder if they could do a local anesthesia for the Lymphedema surgery? Instead, of general anesthetic? Or maybe his Lymphedema had a narrower origination than the stomach ones do?
I had bunion correcting surgery and actually went into it assuming it would be local anesthetic. But the doctor told me it has to be general for two reasons, 1) so you don’t move on accident and 2) because they have to put a clamp on your leg to slow blood flow that would be uncomfortable even with local. So it’s possible a lymphedema surgery would need to be general for the same reasons.

Is it still a Caesar salad if you put ranch dressing on it? Asking for a friend
We’ve had this debate in my house before, lol. Pretty sure it’s not.

Guys, I made this chicken tonight and my girlfriend said it was just about the best thing I've ever made. I thought I'd share it with y'all because we're all cooped up in our homes and you probably have most of these ingredients on hand.
What you’ll need:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 can cream of chicken soup (you can also use a cup of chicken broth, but the cream of chicken soup makes a nicer sauce)
Dry white wine (about half a cup)
Juice of two lemons
Zest of one half lemon
Three teaspoons of dry oregano
1 tablespoon minced garlic
Flat leaf parsley for presentation
In a slow cooker, mix all the ingredients together except for the parsley. Add the chicken breasts and coat with the mixture. Cook on high for 4 hours and stir after two hours. I served it with a spinach salad and some warm pita bread. But you might want to serve yours with fat-free jam and oranges. 😉
I will be making this tomorrow. Thanks. Have some lemons I need to use. 🙂

I saw that, too! It's like a requirement for these people to own a dachshund. 😂
Which they brought with them on one of their drives down to Houston, apparently did not put it in a crate, and left it in the car during the appointment. 😞

I hate the way she talks. Her kid asking "mama ask where her pills is" or something to that effect nearly broke my mind. I HATE hearing people talk like that.
Whatever the exact line was, I remember when it happened I felt physically injured. 😕

I do hope it’s true about the mortgage companies. Since my father passed in October my brother and I have been paying both Dad’s and our mortgage and bills until probate, which failed in January due to misfiled paperwork, and was up again for this coming Tuesday but now the courts are closed.

They'll be here in the next couple of weeks. I want to go SO. BAD. But, poor.
Aw, we only paid like $60 a seat (they were in our area last month). Maybe it depends on the theatre, or the timing. We bought our tickets last year sometime.

Hi everyone. Am finally home from the hospital post my gastric sleeve surgery (ended up staying a few days longer because they had problems controlling my nausea and there was some concern that I might have had a pulmonary embolism (thankfully allt tests were negative). Glad to be back home and feeling more human today.
This surgery is not a walk in the park and I'll admit that the day after when my pain was the worst, I was wondering what the hell I did to myself. But now I've got my pain down to a more comfortable level and am moving around better. Except for being bloated from all the fluids I got at the hospital, I'm doing really well and am excited over seeing how I'm going to progress from here.
This experience has certainly shown me that the surgery is no small matter and than you really have to work through all your limitations if you want it to succeed. As Dr. Now always says, the surgery isn't a quick fix and no matter how prepared you think you might be, the immediate aftermath of being able to hold down tiny amounts of fluids at a time and everything pulling each time you move can be hard to deal with. Tonight I get to sleep in my own bed with my expensive body pillow (which hopefully finally get me off my back at night) and start the long progress of healing.
I swear the worst pain I had after gastric bypass was from being forced to lie flat on my back! After I left the hospital I spent over a week in a hotel before I was allowed to go home and I would build these constructs out of pillows so I could lie on my side (my surgeon put in a feeding tube thing in case I had any trouble keeping liquids down - I didn’t but couldn’t resist using it once anyways because it was too weird not to try out) and it was challenging to get comfortable with that thing in me. I’m usually a stomach sleeper.

I'm late in discovering this show. I found this story about Ukiah reuniting with her mom who released from prison in November 2019. The mother served 13 years for failure to protect while the father only served two.

I might have missed something but I couldn’t find a way to read the article without buying a subscription. The mom was Cynthia’s cousin I think? Sorry it’s been a while.

We had our father cremated in October and I noticed the part in the packet about the deceased’s weight. If they weighed 300-400 pounds it was $200 something extra and if they weighed 400-500 it was $500 something extra. But that was the highest they would go. I skimmed the burial section and found nothing there for oversized folks.
