Is it wrong that I suddenly feel like a super spry 48 year old after finding out she’s younger than me???

 

Hey y’all! Tuning in suuuuuper late tonight because of work. My eating habit is pretty much whatever I can lay my hands on. Looks like I’m gonna need a lot of energy to catch up reading all the comments here!

Hey, I feel like a sorry 63 year old compared to her.

[Guest]

You're only putting effort into EATING, JOYCE.

GOD.

[suev33 3]

That is some severe denial!!!!  All the scales are wrong!!

[MsVixen]

"I'm at a loss for words" and then continues for another paragraph.....

[SunnyBeBe]

Maybe....inpatient mental health care?

[Minivanessa]

Dr. Now's laying down the law.

And she's arguing.

She's going to argue herself straight to the grave.

There have been many addictions on this show, but I think this one is new. 

She knows how to game the system in this regard.

A lot of women choose dermatology because its family friendly. No dermatology emergencies or on call duty. 

Dermatology, Ophthalmology, Radiology, Pathology, and Psychiatry are well paying specialties that have regular hours. Ever read "The House of God" by Samuel Shem? 

[Concerned]

Joyce isn’t the only one who wasted so much time.

[SunnyBeBe]

Yippie..  Closer to probate for Dawn and mommie dearest.

[ams1001]

"I'm not sure I want to do this anymore."

You weren't doing it in the first place!!!!!

[Callaphera]

"I gave 100%."

LOLOLOL to your eating habit and medical transportation addiction, sure.

Oh, just give it up, Joyce 

Go home and eat death Joyce.

[Armchair Critic]

Dr. Now is the one not being fair and reasonable? She is giving 100 percent? My bullshit meter just went off the radar!

[OoogleEyes]

It's unfortunate that we ALL wasted all of this time, Dr Now 

[Guest]

Goodbye, Joyce! Goodbye to your smug, blotchy face. Goodbye to your bullshit. Goodbye to your delusions. And goodbye to sad, lonely life.

[Hana Chan]

What a waste of time the past two hours have been. It's not even a train wreak... it's just a waste of everyone's effort on behalf on a waste of skin and lard.

All we have are excuses. It's everyone else's fault - her mother, the diet, the scale, the program...

Bye bye Joyce... I can't say it was a pleasure.

The only positive outcome of her sojourn in Houston is she learned of existence of hair dye.

I've gotten ads for hair dye. Maybe the next one will be for medical transport. 

[Pepper Mostly]

Joyce. You have never for one minute wanted to do this program. You wanted attention and hugs and hair pats. And Dr. Now does not give a shit. You're not doing him a favor by doing the program! 

[Armchair Critic]

She was just looking for an excuse not to do Dr. Now's program. 

[Gbb]

Dr Now “I don’t think I’ll see much more of her.”

Me: “You will if you weigh her again in 3 months.”

[88Keys]

Honest question- is the mom on drugs?  She seems completely zoned out all the time.

[PrincessPurrsALot]

FFS she won't even grab the walker that is right next to her chair.  She almost touched when pointing to it.

[Hellga]

But she can *feel* how good she is doing, way more accurate than those nasty lying scales!

[DEG9]

Hey everybody! She's given 100% of herself, and yet, a lying scale, a gerbil doctor, and 1200 calories were enough to defeat her every effort. Oh, and don't forget Mom's contribution! 

Oy.

[Callaphera]

Joyce: "We're gonna have to clear a pathway."

Dawn: *open blinds* "Is that better?"

Joyce: "Yeah."

[Guest]

SHUT UP ABOUT THE MEDICAL TRANSPORT, YOU LAZY FUCKING SOW.

[Pepper Mostly]

"Does that door open any wider?" A suitable coda for this episode. 

[ams1001]

How does her mom afford to fly down there every month?

Denial is just not a river in Egypt.

[DC Gal in VA]

Oh Penny Joyce you're at a loss for words? The problem is you're just not at a loss of WEIGHT!

How do I feel about this bitch? *** channeling my inner Madea ***

 

 

Oh "Lort" it's been fun with all of you; now I need to make a double Manhattan! Good night.

Additional comments.

[PaTatertots]

Joyce and Dawn have no fucks to give. One does the over feeding while the other happily overeats.

[Armchair Critic]

She sat on the deck. Big whoop! I bet once she is off Dr. Now's program that is as far as she gets.

[mmecorday]

Walking out onto the balcony is a big improvement. Wow.

[Callaphera]

No inspirational park ending. Faux hopeful on-the-deck ending instead. 

HA!

Oh, wait, she's back in after her thirty seconds outside. And she made it back and forth without medical transport!

[sagittarius sue]

What an achievement!  With her walker she managed to walk onto the patio.

That's  because  she  doesn't  seem to  understand the  word "loss," whether  you're  talking about  weight loss or  loss for  words. 😉

[Guest]

Congratulations on walking three steps out to the porch, JOYCE. 

[Pepper Mostly]

WHAT LIFE IN KANSAS? You sat in a chair like a slug, just like you do now.

I'm convinced that Dawn is sabotaging things even worse than Joyce is for herself. 

 

Sneakin' yolks into the egg white omelets ! LOLOLOLOL 😂 🥚

[LookABird]

At least she is sitting up in the chair.  Small steps.  Very, very, very small steps.

[poeticlicensed]

Mr Poetic really wants a recliner. This show is demonstrating that a recliner is a step closer to death. 

[ams1001]

"It cost me my life in Kansas..."

How was your life in Kansas any different than your life in Houston, except maybe it was colder there? You sit around doing nothing either way.

[Kid]

Good night guys! As always, you are great.

[MsVixen]

Good night Pounders!  Once again great being with y'all tonight!

[Hana Chan]

Goodnight all! I have to get up for an appointment with my surgeon tomorrow. Have a great evening!

[Hellga]

Good night, everyone!  Joyce is a waste of space, but she was fun to hate and snark on!

[OoogleEyes]

OooooohMG. You guys are the best! Thanks for another hilarious snark fest

Oh for fuck's sake. I don't get a park walk but I get a late-night ride to Dr Now's office?! 

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

[Splashes]

Well now I can go back and watch the whole thing
