S08.E04: J. T.'s Story LIVE CHAT

[Ivylady]

He can't get out of the van. He can't get down the hallway. He can't get onto the bed. What is the point? 

Jessica should just drive straight there because he's gonna bitch regardless 

[MrsRopersCaftan]

His feet must be like elephant hooves.  I cannot imagine walking everywhere barefoot. I'm so skeeved out just thinking about it.

I'm sure the irony of him huffing and puffing to his room (a whopping 100 feet) while carrying a jug of soda and a big ass bag of fast food is totally lost on him.  And for the love of Bob, does he have a milkshake with EVERY MEAL???

[MelissaMinion]

I’m guessing at least 750. And now we know why his bed is on the floor. Lifting that leg to get into bed is too hard.

[Callaphera]

I can't help but think of how useful it would be to have a table attached to you, even if it was cumbersome to move around. 

[Donut Bear]

Waiting for the bed to collapse

Because his girlfriend almost dropped the soap food. 

Then again, I'd probably be pretty pissed about that and I'm only a 9th of this guy. 

Hey....what's that about dropping soap???

[SunnyBeBe]

So, are they traveling with no luggage?

And, Dr. Now will admit him to hospital tomorrow. He's too sick to survive or let leave....

[LookABird]

Can they weigh the lymphedema separately?  I want to know how much it weighs.  I am guessing close to 200 pounds.

[CrazyInAlabama]

I'm starting to really hate him.   He's mean to everyone, takes no responsibility for anything, and is a total jerk.   

I can't believe that bed didn't collapse, of course there's still time.     

Somewhere in Oklahoma, a rental car manager is crying hysterically, and now realizes why he got a minvan back that had no suspension, worn out tires, and the engine blew from the load.

Losing everything? You have no life- what is there to lose?

She couldn't ask for a first floor room?  Did she do it in purpose?   Can a hotel bed hold 900 lbs?   

Can a hotel floor hold 900 lbs?

Because another Dr. Now patients on the journey to Houston  already booked all the first floor rooms!!

Imagine a hotel filled with Dr. Now patients. The continental breakfast would be gone in 30 seconds.

[FormeryHeavyJ]

Mrs Formerly Heavy J guesses 720.  I think she's under.  I'm going all in at 830.  All in like James from Jeopardy

[Snarkastikate]

Why no medical transport if he's on welfare?   Beautiful hotel room.  Interesting they didn't just pick a filthy roadside motel where you could just drive right up to the door?  You know,  like their home seems to be. 

[Guest]

Y'all I can't take much more of this guy and his "I'm risking everything," "my life depends on this," "I'm terrified." He's said each of these things at least a half dozen times in the last 32 minutes. The producers have GOT to come up with another script. Jesus.

He only has the one pair of pants. 

[ams1001]

Six pages at 8:30...I'm still back at page 2....!

 

You gonna eat that?

This is depressing.

Very much so.  

[poeticlicensed]

I'm never staying in a motel off the highway again people. I will be having nightmares about the purple pants and the lymphedema being in the bed before me.

[Suzywriter]

887

[hoosiermom]

768. Way too low I know. And stop laughing dammit!

[novhappy]

“I feel like just watching some tv and passing out? You good with that?”

what the actual fuck else were you two gonna do? Go sightseeing? Maybe a museum or a national park!?

[Wanda]

In season 2 Dr Now removed a large lymphodema from Christina even though she didn’t meet any of her weight loss goals. He did it to help her kick start her weight loss. JT needs that mass off ASAP but Dr Now seems more insistent on making them jump through more hoops than he did in early seasons.

[SunnyBeBe]

Don't laugh..I'm making some Skinny Girl popcorn.

Truth. They'd have to have the cops on speed dial, "Another biscuit brawl in the lobby, officer."

[DC Gal in VA]

Wait, what, did he just say they have six to seven hours more driving AND that it's gonna take two days to do that? Seriously? Aaaaaaand that he has to "push" himself to make it? Oh girlfriend, just wake up early, sneak out the room and leave his sorry ass there!

You've never been stuck in a room for work that's next to the teen party room.

Yes, yes it can.

She doesn't want him to "get mad" at her.

I would laugh and laugh if it plummeted through all of the floors below, like a cartoon. 

[sagittarius sue]

I'll go with 885.

Which is full of holes.....

I'm gonna say he weighs 852.

While I agree....what else does he have to talk about? Time spent eating, watching TV, and verbally abusing his girlfriend seem to be his only hobbies.

Yes, he was reminding me of Steven Assante with those feet, back legs.

He said at the beginning he had nearly nothing to wear, and the things he had were worn to threads.

Is anyone else watching the show about the women of size and their puny husbands that comes on Monday nights?

[poeticlicensed]

That hotel looks like a Hampton Inn. Sometimes they have the waffle maker.

What personality does this asshat have? He's a dink and yells at her if she's not quick enough with the grub. 

Taco sandwiches with pizza stuffing and cookie dough topping. side of fries. 

Looks like a Navajo taco.  https://iamnm.com/navajo-tacos-•-recipe/

They're going salsa dancing. Then for a sail. Hahahaha I kill me. 

[Ivylady]

He really dragged this 8 hour trip out over 3 days. Damn. He's not one for pushing himself at all. 

[Donut Bear]

Heck. We didn’t get to see the second travel day and motel

I don't even have a waffle maker. WTF.

Yes! I was just gonna ask that. I guess we can't talk about it here, but yeah. It's 'interesting.'

[mmecorday]

I know Dr. Now has probably seen it all, but I think he's even going to be shocked by JT's appearance.

[Splashes]

Oh no the stretchpants failed. I salute you stretchpants, you had a truely impossible job.

[FormeryHeavyJ]

We need a grumpy nurse fan club.

[Hellga]

Wow.  892

[gameshowjunkie]

Wow...892...
