Sad but true. Exercise, even hours a day, doesn’t lead to weight loss without keeping your pie hole shut. Exercise is important, but it’s really about diet.

Preliminary eating habit is beer and Safeway "Entertaining crackers"  I buy them for the name!

I love this more than my life. Do you enjoy them with Singing Cheese or Raconteur Salami?

"The keto was altered."

"I added sugar, rice, cheese sauce, cream cheese.."

Cream, butter, more cream, bacon, lemon meringue pie, pancakes, and fried chicken.

"Giving up aint a word in my vocabulary". No dipshit it's two words and they are very much in your vocabulary.

[Azubah]

I want to see Dr. Now's Booklet of Guidance and Wisdom. Yes I know there's a one-sheet diet sheet online that's supposed to be his diet, but that's obviously out of date.

He was seen sneaking away from the scale after messing with it.

Her flat affect is affecting me now. I want to smack her on the head with the rolled up diet paper.

She aint going to do this at all, is she?

What's with two weeks in a row of flat affect?  It's rather mind-numbing.

"I'll show Dr. Now" = I'm going to fail like you haven't seen since the last major fail.

Yeah. As they say, "You can't outrun a bad diet."

Dr. Now's diet is low-carb, high protein, I think.  Sushi would be out because of the rice.  However, if you ate just the pieces of fish, it could probably work.  Like nigiri without the rice under it.

"But it's fraaaahed."
"But it's riiiiiice."
"But it's fraaaahed."

The husband and I do that back and forth whenever we order Chinese food for dinner. 

[CrazyInAlabama]

Thanks for the Annie earworm.     

That Seventh Generation head in the dryer commercial is so weird.

For someone her weight she will burn around 400kcal/mile walked. She is right now eating around 6000kcal/day. So to get down to 1200kcal/day equivelent she would have to walk 12 miles/day. She seems to struggle to walk 12 meters. Exercise is useful for weight loss for overweight people and healthy people but for people in this weight it is just irrelevant amount to weight loss.

Does anyone remember when Dr. Now wore a shirt and tie and sat on a stool in the exam room?  I long for those days.  I am so bored this episode.

Does anyone remember when most of Dr. Now's patients seemed to want to be there and at least made some effort?  I miss those days.  TLC is really scraping the bottom of the barrel lately.  And that is saying something, since this is TLC we're talking about.

You can't exercise your way out of a bad diet.

Cream, butter and bacon are allowed on keto, but not poured over grits.

[SunnyBeBe]

I really think they believe the scale is magical and not really connected to measuring their body weight in pounds and that wishing, pretending and lying does compute as weight loss!

[FormeryHeavyJ]

That guy with the soulmate in the Philipines has no neck.  It bothers me.

[Suzywriter]

She seems...slow. More than just Louisiana-culture "we don't rush when speaking" slow. I mean, slow.

"Food is my comfort" is to this show as "He/she is my soulmate" is to "90-Day Fiance."

It's a specific spinal defect. I forget the name. Lots of discussion over on the 90 Day board.

It's going to bother his fiancee, too. 

[Ivylady]

For someone who can't do shit for herself, she always looks put together. 💁🏾‍♀️

[FormeryHeavyJ]

Dress in workout clothes....bring walker.  What a combo.

[SunnyBeBe]

Omg that outfit looks real attractive......lol..

[Chicklet]

Someone call 911, something chewed on her laigs! 
Good god why is she wearing that stuff?

[Pepper Mostly]

We're only on Month 4 and its the Sad Music of Failure. 

 

[88Keys]

You guys...she looks thinner to me.

Oh! So it's like a recipe on allrecipes.com

The review: "I changed the protein, the fat, added three cups of sugar, some chopped almonds, a handful of kale, and some fish sauce for zip. It was horrible, 0/10, would never make again."
Me, after reading it: "Um, it was a recipe for apple pie?"
 

I'm on a lot of cooking FB pages, and get emails/recipes from Pillsbury and Kraft. I swear, no one can make the darned recipe the way it's written. There's a guy w/a cooking w/Instant Pot FB  page and he says straight up - don't come at me about the food if you changed the recipe. 

[umgoblue]

She is wearing a nice designer type bra...does she work the pole?!?!?

[AnnaBanana]

Is it just me or does she actually look smaller??

And one thing I'll give her--she dresses pretty well for a large woman.  I actually saw a ZIPPER on one outfit!

Her name is Tomorrow????  You mean this isn't Who's on First....600 lbs version????

There was a guy on The Voice the other night named Thunderstorm. (He was adorable, and really good.) One of his 11 siblings was PraiseJesus.

[mmecorday]

So where is she going to exercise? In the median of a interstate highway?

[Suzywriter]

Let's see if there is a moment of awakening for this Poundticipant. I am kind of hoping something changes. 

[DC Gal in VA]

Well, not only does she wear a bra but a damn pretty black one at that! Amazing.

[Caoimhe]

Well every time her sister brought her to the gym was time she couldn’t be stuffing her face, but she doesn’t look 80 pounds thinner.

[Chicklet]

Where on earth does she find a ...nice bra in her size? I'm thinking she never takes this one off.

[ams1001]

I fear the straps on the sports bra are going to cut off the circulation to her boobs.

Yeah I've posted this many times.  But it just fits so very well.

OMG, I love it!  I was a huge fan of "Lost in Space" when I was a kid.

I remember my my mom buying my little brother a toy, battery-operated robot.

She complained that this cost EIGHT dollars!

I'm sure it would be a collectable now,  but if we knew then what we know now...

[Gbb]

With bad knees she’d do much better on the elliptical than a treadmill. 

[FormeryHeavyJ]

New Balance....the official shoes for 600 pounders who dress like the sun.

[Armchair Critic]

That bra doesn't look too practical for exercise

[SunnyBeBe]

I hope that exercise hasn’t caused her appetite to increase.

But can she clean her vagina?

[Splashes]

Exercise also has the problem people think they can have a reward and really overguess how effectice exercise is and burn off 200kcal and then as a reward go eat 2000kcal meal.

[Callaphera]

Wow, the car actually physically bounced back up when she got out of it.

[Burning Rubber]

She looks much smaller!
