Here's the pic, but Persnickety1 is right about the lap! 🙂 Senshus? Lewk? Twerty? Boyf? Bish? Snackies? Drammer? Werk? Vom? Flirk? Emosh? Use three or more in one sentence for your prize of a trip to your choice of Wilmington, Charlotte. Greensboro or the beautiful state of Howareya. Bonus pizza if you can guess the last location!

Re: The Goose Tattoo I did a little research. Came across this article "Why You Love Being A Jerk In the Untitled Goose Game." "In the rapidly bestselling Untitled Goose Game, players embody a horrible goose whose only purpose is to bother, annoy, and harass members of a pleasant small town. Goose Game’s primary game mechanic is sadism. As the titular goose, you can chase a small child into a phone booth, lock a groundskeeper out of his own garden, or have a picnic of food pilfered from around town. There’s no combat or complicated narrative, and your only reward is the smug satisfaction of being a jerk." So very Whitney!

It's Whitney's brother. Hunter does some performing in drag.

Oh, hands down, they are. Pretty much anyone of the posters here could do a much better job of writing this show, especially if the goal is to make Whitney look as obnoxious as possible. 🙂

Also, sleep apnea. What happened to her sleep equipment?

It occurred to me while that scene played out, that she is probably unable to walk, sit or lie down with her legs in the normal knees-facing-front position because the size and location of her gut gets in the way. She has to rotate her hips out in order to accommodate the giant belly. And that does not bode well for the health of her hips.

Tsk! How quickly we forget! On March 17, 2020, Whitney posted video on her instagram saying that she was lucky to not have to worry about money during the shutdown, due to the loyalty of her fans to her "little show." In gratitude, she was going to give $20 to anyone who asked for it from her venmo account, no questions asked. (She never specified how much money was in the account.) And she'd do this until the account ran out of money. Venmo apparently locked her account due to too many requests for payment within an hour. While I'm not knocking the value of $20 to people in distress, I'm pretty sure she could not have found a lazier way to distribute her largesse, nor one that she could be sure would get her the most attention from her followers. So, yeah, more about her than anyone else.

Today on instagram stories, more Whitney Words Of Wisdom: "I think it's important to realize that no matter how good you are to people, it won't make them good to you." Just kidding. She didn't say it. She copied it from the instagram account "quotesbychristie."

The ballroom competition was The North Carolina Ballroom Challenge. It was strictly for Pro-Am and Amateur Couples. As Todd and Whitney "hold themselves out in the community as professional dancers" they were not eligible to compete at this comp. It looks as if the producers hired the set-up the competition used at the hotel (minus the signs that said "North Carolina Ballroom Challenge") and either paid or just invited some of the competing couples to appear in a bogus heat. Todd and Whitney were so completely outclassed by the others in their "heat" that the crew filming had a hard time making them look functional, let alone competitive. Even the brief glimpses of the other couples that they couldn't avoid made it obvious that Whitney and Todd were out of their league. Needless to say, they came in second. I think they might have wanted to come in first, but the producers were afraid the disbelieving laughter from the other competitors would make them look silly. As it was, the other competitors (some of whom had probably placed highly in their actual heats) had a hard time keeping straight faced as they graciously "accepted" their lower rankings.

That was the most boring and pointless half hour of TV I have ever sort of watched. (So many long commercials for the Discovery channel!) I used to say I watched this show because Whitney was such a powerful negative role model, especially when it came to fitness. I could actually push myself through tougher workouts by chanting "Whitney can't, but Ketzel can, Whitney won't, but Ketzel will" under my breath when I started to lag. But now she doesn't even try do anything. I could sit on the couch for two hours and only eat half a frozen pizza and I'd be way ahead of her activity level. One thing did have me rolling my eyes hard (not including her repetition that she had stopped exercising because her doctor told her it was bad for her anxiety to exercise.) It was the sudden arrival of the chorus of agreement, led by Whitney, that she had no life in Charlotte outside of the work imposed on her by that bully Ryan. And that work could easily be done from anywhere! Wasn't that more or less what Chase was saying to her (barring the "Ryan is a bully" part) when she adamantly refused to even consider leaving Charlotte to live by the seaside with her fake fiance?

I just came across a web page that listed all the episodes of Season 8 of MBFFL. After the most recent one, "Sink or Swim," it has Episode 9, "The Buddy System," Episode 10, "A Big Fat Ultimatum," Episode 11, "Weight Loss Surgery," *** and Episode 12, "Whitney Gets Her Groove Back." No descriptions, just the names. *** For the record, I don't for a minute believe Whitney is getting weight loss surgery in episode 11.

Whitney has put up a sign in her IG story reading "The Best Revenge Is No Revenge. Move On. Be Happy." Kind of a wordy knock-off of the 70s motto "Living Well Is The Best Revenge," but still, such an appropriate sentiment for the woman who handled the end of her relationship with Avi with such grace. I'm just not sure who, in this situation, is the object of her revenge? Because it sure looked like it was Ryan, and the friend he brought to the lake house, and also Buddy's new girlfriend, and, for all we know, Lennie. She's a spiteful bitch at the best of times, and this isn't one of her best times.

I thought Buddy had moved in with her weeks ago.

Back when Whitney was auditioning Ryan's friends for the role of her boyfriend, she had Thanksgiving dinner at Ryan's house with -I'm not sure- I think his name was Cam? This was the infamous dinner where Whitney whipped off her shirt, leading to the Great Debate over whether she was wearing a sports bra or a lingerie bra (as if either would be appropriate garb to undress to in the middle of a dinner party.) Someone asked at the time why Whitney wasn't having TG dinner with her family and she replied that they didn't celebrate Thanksgiving together. I don't know how credible that was, but she did say it.

No, no, we've seen her eat salad before - I recall her ordering her "usual" salad from some delivery service with a cute delivery driver a couple of seasons ago. It had a base of macaroni, lots of mayonnaise and ranch dressing and was covered with crumbled real bacon. I'm pretty sure there was a lettuce leaf or two, also, but nothing she couldn't push aside to get to the hardcore carbs and fats!

But she's only following doctor's orders! She's not supposed to exert herself at all, lest her anxiety-caused panic attacks return! [sarcastifont off] I am feeling oddly sorry for Ryan, who built up NoBSActive to a very successful operation by doing easily 90% of the work involved, and is apparently about to have it pulled out from under him, because he behaved (imo) like a business partner and not like a middle school girl who rushes to tell her best friend who is dating her brother that her brother went to a party without her and left with another girl!!!!!

What 36-year-old makes a "marriage contract" with her male friend at all, let alone making one and taking it seriously enough to be offended, when she finds out he's met someone new RIGHT AFTER HE SIGNED THE CONTRACT TO MARRY HURRR."'

Buddy crushes Whitney?! 🙂

Ryan posted this - not too subtle, but I can't disagree with him. (click to make it a little larger.)

I remember her talking about this. She called it her "party trick," and said PCOS messed up her hormonal balance and the false positives were due to that. Chase also wasn't concerned about Whitney's cats getting along with his dog. When Ryan asked him how Piper got along with the cats, Chase said "She doesn't." Ryan shook his head and that was the end of the discussion. Thus, another issue that one would think would be front and center with these two animal lovers, to all appearances was blithely ignored. Was Whitney thinking, "Oh, the cats will adjust. And if they don't, Chase will give Piper to a friend, or a shelter or something." Meanwhile Chase was thinking, "It's really not a problem -- we'll be splitsville long before Piper has to co-habit with three cats and a poodle. And if there's a little overlap, Whitney can give the cats and the poodle to her parents to look after."

We need an emoticon for revulsion in this forum.

Today in her insta story, she is shilling Curology skincare.

But she does ask for more. She wants, for lack of a better description, a conventionally attractive partner. No one obese. No fat fetishists or chubby chasers. Someone she can bring home to Babs and Glenn and Hunter and impress them with her high-quality match - not to mention make the barnacles and the fan base swoon over how well she's done. I'm not a regular watcher of My 600lb Life, but from what I've seen of the men who are attached to women of that size, they are not what Whitney would consider eligible.

At some point, Whitney posted something to the effect that the poodle was a young dog and the "gray" on her muzzle and legs was "silver," a standard poodle color variation. I know nothing at all about poodles. and it looks like she's taken down the instagram post where she announced the dog's arrival and commented on its coloration ("Chase finally persuaded me to get a dog!") so don't quote me. 🙂 She also posted on September 16 that she was "still confused by being a dog mom." I hope things have gotten better since then for both of their sakes.

Today Whitney's insta story is shilling for an on-line class promoting Body Positivity being offered by her "therapist of many years." [Ketzel bites her tongue to keep from saying the obvious.]
