I'm sitting here drinking and sobbing and thinking

'Cause my baby got too wide for our doublewide

And don't forget her dad stole her truck!

All that mushymushy stuff felt super fake. 

All of their interactions feel super fake tonight. I mean, I get it, it's TLC and they suck, but MAN, just ONE scene per show that isn't scripted would be really nice.

Sung to the tune of "She's a good-hearted woman in love with a good-timin' man..."

I was thinking that when she was reciting the Saga of Dad.

Stop with the Jazz commercials, Pimple commercials, and Foot commercials already.   They're more nauseating than the actual surgery footage.     Please get Rebel what's her name, and Match off my screen.

 

Who thinks plunking a chicken breast in a pot of water to boil the taste out, would taste bad?   

Amen to the commercials.

I feed my dog boiled chicken and some rice when she has diarrhea.  It completely disgusting and it smells like ass when it's cooking.

[dreadfulLeigh]

Literally cackled at her second weigh in. Also, damn girl, that’s some special math there. It’s been five months, yet you think you only needed to lose the 75 lbs from the first two months?? That you failed to lose even half of??

He can afford to be nice to her so long as she is in Houston and not home with him

I’m actually pretty impressed with a Lindsey for coming up with that idea. 

Lindsey seems somewhat intelligent, especially in a relative sense. Not surprised she keeps thinking she can outsmart the diet. Again. 

[mmecorday]

Good for her!

[Hellga]

She actually did pretty well... not as well as she should have, but still, 82 pounds in 3 months is great given her poor results before.  Irene is awesome!

Of course in her case she's a woman with an enlarged heart in love with a two-fisted drinking man.

Typical alcoholic, great making promises on the phone but when they actually have to do it is another story.

[MsVixen]

Lindsey's been approved for surgery....

Big Fucking Whoop

[MrsClaus]

I swear, I can't tell that she lost any weight.

[Pepper Mostly]

They all want Dr. Now to be "proud" of them. Dr. Now does not give a shit! You are doing this for yourself, not for him! Jesus Christ these people. 

[babyhouseman]

Maybe Dr. Now's patients should get people who've had WLS to be their diet/exercise partners. I wouldn't want to be Steven Assanti's partner though. 

[ShortyMac]

I've noticed that her teeth aren't that bad. Can't say that about most of these people.

[hoosiermom]

Poor,poor Irene.

[Chicklet]

Poor Irene, I feel sorry for her most of all, well including the poor dog at home with drunk daddy.

[Pepper Mostly]

I think Irene works for TLC. Or maybe she's Dr. Now's housekeeper or accountant or something.

Paul’ll drink to that. 

[Uuuugghh]

Final thought. At least no kids! 

[dreadfulLeigh]

Apropos of nothing, I got this awesome back massager for Xmas. It’s making this “all weird and stupid situation” much more enjoyable.

There's a cat too. Maybe drunk daddy can tell the difference.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. 😉

[hoosiermom]

Oh God. Still 15 minutes!

[mmecorday]

Her stomach holds a gallon of food. Wow.

[Hellga]

Irene is a saint.  My guess she is going to be the one caring for Lindsey if Lindsey does get surgery... and maybe even not getting a dime for anything, just doing it out of the desire to help someone else struggling with weight issues...

[Azubah]

Didn't I see a big tattoo on her wrist?

Yeah, and she's dressed nicely. Something is fishy here....

[CircusPeanuts]

I've always said that Dr. Now needs some sort of group home/Weight Loss housing complex.  They need daily check ins, daily therapy sessions, communal cooking with a nutritionist, field trips to the grocery store, PT in house, swimming pool, walking track.  They need resources!

I thought I saw at least one tattoo.

I was thinking she wouldn't get it after he took a look-see during the endoscopy.

I had a bowl of chocolate mint ice cream during the endoscopy.  

[Gbb]

And Paul leaves the room to quickly text his girlfriend not to come over after all...

Is the surprise that it holds a gallon or that it ONLY holds a gallon?

[Caoimhe]

But will she gain weight in the two months before surgery or will Irene keep her on track?

I'm only half paying attention to the episode.........glancing......

like looking at Mareeeeeeeeeeeeee Osmond's BOTCHED face.

That sounds amazing.  I wonder how much it should hold. 

Does she think this will work better than the surgery she had before.  and if so, why?   just because Dr Now is doing it.

 

[crazycatlady58]

I know this sounds odd but I think this is one of the more normal relationships I have seen. Yes he is a drunk but they are both honest with calling each other out about the problems. He may be having an affair but I think he energy is focused on work and drinking.  When you drink a lot you don't have much desire for other things.

She had one on her ankle and several on her toes.

Lindsey has tattoos ... they're near her wrist. 😞

Realer?

[babyhouseman]

Now I'm seeing a TLC show with Irene helping the worst people on the show.
