@Hana Chan sending you good healing thoughts as you recover from your recent surgery. Yep, there's nothing like being back home and sleeping in your own bed; I know how important that is after several of my own post-surgical stints in the hospital. Unlike Amy of 1,000 Pound Sisters, I am confident that we don't have to worry about you "sneaking" a few bites of burrito right after surgery like she did. 😊 What a dopey thing for her to do. Take care. 💖
I love those M600PL Bingo cards @thesnarkiest however this one reminds me that there's one square we haven't been able to fill for quite some time. It's the square on the bottom, right corner about firefighters showing up to lug their butts outta their
hovelshomes. I can't remember the last time that happened; can you or anyone else here?TLC I absolutely demand that we see at least
oneseveral units of buff, hunky firefighters per season doing an amazing job with compassion and professionalism even for those that don't deserve it like James K.Re: the hunky firefighter thing. I had to call 911 Saturday afternoon when my husband was unresponsive on the couch. Diabetes. I slapped his face, couldn't arouse him. Yes, he had been drinking wine, bad move on his part.
Me too, it was Saturday. I went almost 30 years not drinking at all, raising and driving kids working etc. Him too. Seems like every time firemen (or EMTs) come here I'm in my friggin nightgown at 3:00 am or like Saturday I've bee drinking too. You damn right, sorry I'm not driving anywhere, but it's shaming. (As a Catholic, of course I always feel guilty of something, and if not I feel like I should, but that's me folks :).
Point is, it's scary to call the hunky firemen, is the house clean? is my husband dying? (his sugar was below 20) has he been drinking? Have You? Least I'm fully dressed, with makeup on and dentures in.
At least I made the requisite Sandwich with get this, Cashew Butter on Oatnut bread instead of Skippy on White.
It's funny how this stuff works. Love!

It's just starting on the west coast, will go to the regular thread.
Here the cable channels air programs at East Coast time, so I join it at 5:00. Can't seem to get West Coast chat, but no matter, I love Live Chat with my East Coast and Midwest/South pals!
(It's weird when we visit New Jersey.."Morning Joe" etc.. starts at 3:00 am out here...I should be in the shower etc. before it's over, not 9:00 am!)

Just for fun: the last ad I got on Live Chat was a full size 53' ATF moving van, back open, ramp down. "Only pay for the space you need". Apropos of Joyce and her transport issues.
Don't know how to cut-and-paste, but had a chuckle. Thanks peeps for a fun chat!

But she did get out on the deck. Ah, progress!

So over this bitch. I’ll now happily watch her fail.
You can't fail if you never tried. If not for the snark, this is just depressing.

The Thanksgiving Parade balloon with slipper flipper feet can sure work out those chewing muscles.

Cats manage to walk on the laptop and remote at just the wrong time. Amber just bent the n key. Calls for a drink.
But seriously, Joyce NEVER EVEN TRIED. What "journey"?

Ok, I admit I had a vodka shot to chase the beer. It's Wednesday night.

Yes, I can believe it. 4' 11' is really short, hence the 160 BMI.

She'll probably just camp out at the hospital.
Joyce, lying supine and motionless in a bed:
"I really am trying Dr. Now".
Pepper Mostly: "Trying WHAT? You haven't lifted a fucking finger!"
"All this activity" is so tiring. What. paddling her little feet under the chair while she;s being wheeled?

She has a double-face. Her face is a bas-relief from the background neck/face pad.
It's great to use bas-relief in a sentence :)

I don't know. This is medical transport. Not sure these guys who are driving her, will be dancing to that tune.
That's why she doesn't know if she can take/make it.

The hardest thing she's ever done? Laying there like a lifeless blob, it takes 4 people to push her onto a gurney. If it's too much she's going to DO what?
Just keep breathing, and they'll drive you to Houston.

Yeah, a whole (paper) plate for the entrée, and another for the "sides" (garlic bread and fries?)

S06.E07: Joyce's Story
in My 600-lb Life
I started watching this show, as a skinny person, late nite on the couch, captivated by the struggles, and, yes redemption, of these obese folks. We can most of us relate to suffering, struggle, and redemption. And, no" Law and Order is "NOT on24/7 and "Hoarders" started to creep me out. When somebody described their son's room as a "Bomb went off in a thrift store" I lost interest.
BTW son moved out 2 years ago, is engaged and room is now "Cat Room" with litter boxes, food stations, cat tree, and Mommy's futon/couch and TV.
I don't know why font changed, Amber cat totally messed up n key and now font. Have to press n twice.
There is no redemption with Joyce, no struggle to lose weight, no idea of what a real life is at all. It is so snarkworthy, and so sad. Why even waste time with these lost souls who have no desire to even be ambulatory?
I use to cheer pounticipants who fit into stylish clothes, dated, and found joy. What's happened? Month 12 and Joyce makes it out to the porch? WTF (rigg)?
