How does she find the time to fit all of these damn cruises into her overwhelmingly busy life?

My cats would hate that too. God, it's so weird. Babs seemed embarrassed by that behavior.

Aw, he's so ugly, he's cute. Unlike Whitney's crybaby face. We need a caption contest Yep. At least you can spanx the loose skin so it's not so apparent. Committing to a fitness program would help tone whatever muscles lie beneath too.

I've tried this but without success. I think I need some type of industrial apparatus to lift and shift everything.

What about the hookers and blow?

I agree. I've lived on a farm and in the country for most of my life and view pigs as livestock rather than pets. We haven't had livestock on our farm for quite a while, but many of our friends and neighbors do. Unfortunately, even under the best conditions, they can become ill and die. It's not much different than people getting flu shots but coming down with it anyhow. From what we're shown, the rescue seemed legit and unless we're shown otherwise, I won't jump to the conclusion that they were negligent with Piggy's care. Personally, I wouldn't want a pig running around in the house. My dog and cats can be quite a handful to care for at times. I can't believe how shitty she is to people who are only offering helpful advice or disagree with her "fat is fabulous" mantra. She really does take some unflattering pictures, doesn't she? I'm not supermodel either, but damn...

Yeah, that's what I figured, and no, he doesn't strike me a real money saver either.

Bridal dresses seem to run small in general, in my opinion. No vanity sizing there! That is a pretty dress but it would limit people due to the cut. I wouldn't feel comfortable in it based on my current body. Now if I worked my ass off, like Cherekov does, hell yes, I would rock the shit out of that dress! I perceived the "desperate walking stick" comment as a reference to the sister-in-law's attitude. She sounds pretty snotty. It's pretty petty to not want your future sister-in-law in your wedding party based solely on her weight. Best of luck to your brother.

I don't get that vibe from Whitney. She just strikes me as having the attitude of "I'll do whatever the hell I want, consequences be damned". The cynical part of me believes that TLC would love to see her go through such a huge life changing transition like that.

The turning points for me are the realization that carrying around 25-30 extra lbs. is very likely to shorten my life span, reduce my ability with certain activities and being disgusted with my physical appearance. I've struggled with my weight starting in my 40's and it's really a day to day issue with me. Things that work for me are using plastic containers with premeasured amounts of food (one serving), using measuring spoons and cups when I'm preparing them, weighing myself once a week, using a pedometer to track my steps and having "goal clothes". I've attended a great wellness class that taught me about good and bad fats, carbs, proteins, how many calories I should consume to lose weight, etc. In addition, I try to be more aware of what's going on when I'm eating (emotionally). I did lose about 40 lbs. for several years using those methods, but regained about 20 as of today, The regain was from me gradually getting away from good eating habits. So, my current plan is to lose at least 20 lbs. which would put me at 155 lbs. What really upsets me, is Whitney's message about fat acceptance is perfectly healthy and anyone who believes otherwise is a fat-shamer.

I know. I've got a gut and wouldn't even walk around the house without covering it up.

Ugh, the drama! I think her friends are really over a lot of her BS. Poor Lennie, he weighs about 160 and he's supposed to lift 380lbs.? Whitney ordering the camera man to stop filming and help her? Skis are bitch to get up from when you're at a normal weight. I can't imagine that she really believed that she would shushing down the slopes. Probably too heavy too. I've got an elliptical at home and I think I would break it if I weighed 380 lbs.

Wow, he's saved 13K? No shit he should be paying back Whitney and Mom and Dad. Hopefully he has, or is in the process of doing that. Does anyone know if he has a job yet?

Oh yeah, you know those plants didn't last a week. Because watering them is soooooooooooo hard, makes her feet hurt, interferes with her dance career, blah, blah, blah. I'm sure he can be available, Jennylauren. Wink, wink.

I was also wondering about how strong his immune system was in that situation. You brought up some good points about diet, stress, etc. With such a messed up timeline, I don't think we'll ever know how long Piggy was at the rescue before he died. Poor Piggy. Poor Babs too. I'm still pissed that Whitney allowed the crew to film that scene.

I can't blame the farm. The article said the symptoms come on rapidly and that sometimes, death is the only symptom. Sort of like swine flu? (I'm not making light of Piggy's death, BTW).

That did seem like a lot of food, but maybe this was going on for awhile and they had to skip a meal. I'm pretty sure it wasn't after 9 either...

They didn't explain how Piggy contracted it. It sounds like a very fast acting bacterial infection and the rescue wasn't able to get him to the vet in time. I hope they don't start blaming the rescue.

Her version of manual labor. Or training to keep on shoveling the bullshit that is her fabulous life.

Yeah he was really trying to sell it. Too bad Whit was so distracted by her unGodly foot pain. I agree, that is not a good look for him.

Maybe they should hook up, after all they have so much in common. Parents footing the bills, addictive behaviors/unhealthy lifestyles, unwillingness to own their bad behavior, emotional cluelessness, no real jobs to speak of now that Buddy can no longer tend bar, treating their friends kind of shitty-what else am I forgetting?

He really tries to avoid admitting that he acted like a dick. Just admit it already.

How would one go about enforcing that, too? I mean, if I find a cool item, like the cross, maybe I'll just slip it into my pocket. And how is the monetary amount figured? I really need to stop drinking caffeine in the evening.

Oh I had forgotten that. Buddy really needs to get himself a real life. Mom and dad pay for his phone but he's laughing about " hookers and blow". Really dude?? She could always pawn the baby off to Babs and Glenn. Glenn would be in granddaddy heaven.

Oh hell yes.
