There are only a few episodes of 600 Lbs Life and now this show I have turned off & refuse to watch again. Sean Milliken, the Assanti Brothers, and now this one with Tommy & super-babying mommy. I cannot finish watching the show with the sound off because I know what mommy is saying. Mommy is nuttier than a jar of Skippy and she's pushing her mind-scrambling nuttiness onto her poor son.

A few responders already beat me to it with comparisons to Sean's mother. Mrs. Tommy needs a kick in the you-know-where. Maybe several. With all her 3rd person references to herself as "Mommy" this is reminiscent of "The Jimmy" from Seinfeld.

I'm waiting for Dr Now to say "you lost one pound....you must have pooped before you got here..."

I could go for another Where Are They Now update on Nicole and her Merry Bunch o' Bastards. Like Cousin Eddie said....it's the gift that keeps on giving.

Have to say it was better than the guy a year or two ago who was doing seated curls with his 40 oz mug of soda. Remember...he was the one from a northern state (Minnesota? Montana?) wearing flip flops in the snow.

Hi Everyone. Have not been doing the live chat this year being that I am up at 3am for the gym. I look forward to reading the comments afterwards but cannot find the live chats anymore on the site. Did they get moved to another location? Snarkingly Yours, Formerly Heavy J Whenever there is someone truly annoying on the show I always pray for a 3rd floor room with no elevator. Oh please please please let there no elevator. Please.

Someone else pointed out this is become the Jerry Springer Show for the morbidly obese. It is worse than a freak show. Dolly, the gospel singer, Eat & Cry Eat & Cry and now this disaster. I got so pissed watching the nutritionist attempt to do her job with a petulant 5-year old Blobzilla I turned it off. I hardly EVER do that. On the plus side of this year (is there a plus side????) I have to give MASSIVE props to the snarker who came up with Rainbow Not-So-Bright for Dolly.

I have not watched the episode yet but it certainly sounds that Lisa's verbal skills are "much more gooder". The son is living out the advice of the rock band "Slade" from around 1985....."Run Run Away". Man that was a great song.

I wasn't allowed to touch my Mom's washing machine......ever. She was afraid everyone would "break it". I was finally allowed to use the washing machine to help her out when my parents retired & relocated, my Dad passed and she was living alone. That was 12 years ago.....when I was 44 years old. No I didn't break it.

This was the exact expression on my face when I took my first Calculus exam at Muhlenberg fall 1983

I have always wondered exactly what goes on with the selection process. I believe that any rationale-minded person can tell within the first 10 minutes of meeting a possible candidate if they are going to be an outright failure. As someone who had a sleeve gastrectomy in 2016 (hence the Formerly Heavy J screen name) and lost 300 lbs in two years it just pisses me off to no end to see people chosen who waste this golden opportunity to live a NORMAL life. Wobbling around at 500-600 lbs is not normal.

When I saw the loaf of Wonder I thought she must have a pound or two of ham shoved in her pocket with the jar of mustard under the blubber. That's a good hiding spot. Remember the police made Nicole (of the Bunch 'o Bastards fame) pick up her blubber while searching for drugs.

I watched this episode on my cable company's repeat channel Friday night (must be in bed by 730pm for my daily 430am workout so I miss the original airing) & I stopped when Dolly was in bed with the homeless guy in what was apparently NOT a Hilton. I was not going to watch any more but now from reading all the live chat comments & those on this section I have to pick it up where I left off. Mrs Formerly Heavy J was surprised I turned it off. I told her "my head hurts....I have no idea what I just watched...." I do know that my daughter, a licensed hair stylist, would make a fortune if she lived next door to DollyLand. Every scene the three of them had different colored hair. Daughter of Formerly Heavy J would have that Jeep Cherokee by now she wants so much.

Calling Dr. Stanley Friedman....Dr Fraiser Crane....Dr Nials Crane....Dr Lilith Sternin-Crane......and the guy from Law & Order who does the Farmers Insurance commericals.

Just watching this episode now on my cable company's repeat channel. Been wondering why her voice sounded vaguely familiar. Does anyone else think she sounds like MeMaw from Young Sheldon?

I made it through an hour or so Thursday night on my cable repeat channel. I tried again today. I had to turn it off. No effort, stupid excuses, blah blah blah. Like my Dad used to say, "...go be stupid somewhere else....not around me...."

You left out "I am a very goal-orientated person" and "I have to stay in Montana for a few months to tie up loose ends". Let's look at #1. Unless your goal is to hit 1000 lbs, NO goal-orientated person on the face of the earth would say that while pushing 800 lbs. Now for #2. You sit on your oversized backside in one of the most disgusting chair/ottoman combinations I have ever seen in my 54 years. When not eating you stare at the ceiling all day or, like a 10-year old, play video games. Exactly what "loose ends" are we talking about? Do you have to finish the neighbors tax returns? Is there a corporate merger in that neck of Montana which requires Ryan's expertise for the due-diligence and stock combination? Am I missing something? When a former employer had a water cooler with the refillable jugs I used to curl the full ones. I know it doesn't compare to Ryan's soda-keg curls though.

I am 6'1", 220 lbs and I would need to use WD40 to get into that shower. Plus I would knock myself half-silly on the walls. Since the episode did not include surgery or afterwards, does anyone know if Paul was a success? Hoping so.

After seeing Lacey sitting on the side of the road with her luggage I have a request for anyone who is good with PhotoShop. Take the picture of Steve Martin & John Candy sitting on the huge trunk while the rental car burns & superimpose Lacey doing the same. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!

I'm not even through the entire episode yet but this is one of my favorites. I just got to the scene where Sharon dumped her at the gas station. I am still partial to Nicole and her merry Bunch o' Bastards. Both episodes are the gifts that keep on giving. Nicole having her blubber searched for drugs vs Lacey getting dumped at a gas station in the middle of nowhere.

I miss my Wednesday night snark-fest. Was always the highlight of my week. Is that sad or just the fact that I'm an Accountant? I end up watching the episodes on the Optimum channel later on during the week. My gym opens at 430am so I'm in the parking lot waiting at 425am. That means I'm in bed at 745pm. I cannot keep my eyes open at 8pm anymore. Keep posting the great comments. I'll do a few floors of Stairmaster for each of you.

I watched 15 minutes of Part 2 last night that was originally aired last week. Had to turn it off. I do not know what's worse. Jeanne's incessant blubbering in the Dr's office, the staring into space/accomplishing absolutely nothing, or the putrid filth she lived in. Abso-freaking-lutely disgusting. My fraternity house had better furniture than Jeanne. That's not saying much. The stuff in the living/potty room is worlds beyond anything Fabreeze can do. More like take outside and apply gas & match. You don't have to be rich to clean up. Vacuum. Clean the cobwebs & filth off the wall. Take the blinds outside & hose them down. Mop, bucket & Mr Clean does wonders. Throw crap out.

Going by the live chat I really missed a good one last night. With my absurdly anal-retentive workout schedule I cannot stay up to 8pm. I miss the laughs but I really enjoy my 440am Stairmaster sessions. Forgive me!!!

Yes I forgot the sofa meatloaf!!! Was that the one with crushed Cheeze-Its? I love Cheeze-Its. Ever since I had my sleeve gastrectomy in 11/2016 & dropped 300 lbs by 11/2018 (and have kept every ounce off) I still snack on Cheeze-Its. When I pass to the afterlife I will have Cheeze-Its with me like a Pharoah of Egypt with his treasures. I need something to snack on while waiting for St. Peter to judge me. I hope he likes White Cheddar. I have seen so many culinary inventions on this show. Couch meatloaf. Deep frying while in bed. Shoveling out ice cream when the 5-gallon container is inches from a person's naked special area. Making pancakes in an electric skillet in the living room. I am waiting to see if anyone will make Thanksgiving dinner in the bathroom.

I have to watch this on the Optimum repeat channel since I am in bed by 8pm for my 430am workouts. I was hoping to read that Chris-Shun made a special guest appearance. The Chris-Shun melt-down is my second-favorite episode of this show ever. NO ONE will ever beat Nicole and her Merry Bunch of Bastards. Mouth-Breathing Charlie. Numerous people living in one hotel room. Sub-letting part of her rented house to drug dealers (which I'm sure truly endeared her to the landlord). The police forcing her to lift her blubber to check for drugs. The rolling hotel bed. The amazing hydro-engineering of the porch shower. It's the gift that keeps on giving.
