S08.E14: Megan's Story LIVE CHAT

[PrincessPurrsALot]

Quote

At 24 years old and over 600 lbs., Megan lives at home with her mom, who cooks for her since Megan can't do much on her own. Now Megan must travel to Houston to meet Dr. Now and change her eating habits or her life may end before it begins.

Mom is shoveling mass quantities of food and Megan is taking it all in.  What will the reason be for this dysfunction? 

This is the LIVE CHAT thread.  It will be open during the US East Coast and US West Coast showings.

Original air date 2020.04.01

Greetings, pounders! My fistful of chocolate chips and I greet you from seclusion.

[Caoimhe]

Is it finally time for a success tonight?

[Pepper Mostly]

Helloooooo Pounders! How is everyone's eating habit tonight? And more important, is everyone safe and well??

[chickenella]

Hi pounders! Anybody home?

[ams1001]

Hi all! Hope everyone is staying healthy, both mentally and physically! It was actually sunny today (we've been getting a lot of rain lately) and around 50F so I went outside for a few minutes at lunch, at least. Hope this is a decent escape from reality (because I live 60 miles from NYC and reality sucks) for a couple hours (though I don't have high hopes given the rest of the season so far). Eating habit is...not great (haven't eaten much today, to be honest) but I don't really care at the moment.

Hey pounders, how y’all doin?

[Chicklet]

Butt in the front- check! IS that on the bingo card?

[babyhouseman]

Hello. 

[Concerned]

If this lady has a fiancé, I’m going to lose my mind.

[materialgirl101]

wow. Mom is killing her

[Hellga]

Hi All!  How is self-isolation going for you?   Don't turn to food for consolation, turn to the forums! 

Eating habit tonight is homemade lentil soup and puff pastries I baked the day before yesterday.

Looking forward to seeing this 'picky eater' in action!

[CousinOliver]

First time I’m not working during live chat!   I usually read through next day. 

[mmecorday]

Good Wednesday, everyone! My eating habit tonight was a hamburger casserole with rotini pasta, condensed tomato soup, worstershire sauce, garlic and cheddar and mozzarella cheese.

[Pepper Mostly]

Eating habit was a ham and Swiss panini, and a piece of chocolate cake. 

[poeticlicensed]

Hello pounders! Week 3 of a stay at home order and I'm ready for snark!

[sagittarius sue]

Howdy pounders and will we have an April Fool's Day kind of show tonight?

[FormeryHeavyJ]

Evening all.  Munching on a protein bar right now.  GYm is still closed here in NJ.  Please make me laugh.  No gym workouts for 14 days.  Going crazy!!!!!

Everyone, I hope!

[Callaphera]

Hey y'all how y'all doin' what brings you here.

Shoutout to Megan's bra: it's trying which is more than we can say for Megan herself. 

[FormeryHeavyJ]

Shes using deodorant.  A first.

[Kid]

“You are not a picky eater if you weigh 600 lbs!”

😂😂😂😂😂

Good evening, Pounders.  I hope you are all safe.

Don’t like her already.  Don’t like mom either.

My first live chat due to the new TV provider.  

I don't know what to say except HI!

 

[Chicklet]

I had cereal and yogurt and fruit. But not oranges or grapes so I'm safe. Trying to not gain the Covid 19.

[Callaphera]

"I love to eat."

Thanks, Captain Obvious. I had no idea what show I was watching there for a minute.

Looks like a new card needs to be drafted! I'm on it!

Welcome! Great to have you here!

Not the biggest breakfast we’ve seen on this show 

[Guest]

FRUITY PEBBLES FOR THE WIN!

But no shower so far...

[MsVixen]

Evening Pounders!  An enabling Mother!  Who'd have thought?

[CrazyInAlabama]

Megan, Taylorville, IL (should make for an epic drive thru parade to Dr. Now's office), 24 years old, and weighs so much.   How sad to see someone so young in this condition.   I hate the mother already.    Mother says daughter weighs too much, and shouldn't, so Mother cooks up a huge breakfast of Grease, Freedom and Death.     

[FormeryHeavyJ]

650 for me, 681 for Mrs Formerly.  650 also for Little Ms Formerly.

[materialgirl101]

That angle that they are shooting her from is awful - I am sure they are doing it on purpose

[Gbb]

Evening, Pounders! How’s everyone doing tonight? How’s your eating habit? Anyone else worried they’re going to need Dr Now if this quarantine goes on much longer? It’s like I’ve adopted a no carb left behind program. Hoping to get some motivation tonight to get back on track.

[Hellga]

At least she eats at a table using a real fork and maybe even the dishes are real and not single-use...   And wears shoes.  The house looks neat too.

[Suzywriter]

Here I am! I went hog wild and ate carbs! I had a bologna sandwich with mayo, potato chips and cream of chicken soup. About sixty million grams of sodium and zero nutrition, but so delicious. 

[nytonc]

Hi all! Missed last few episodes. Glad to be back snarking!

So sorry. I can’t imagine how terrible it is there. Also I have developed a major crush on your governor. If you happen to see AC, please tell him I said, “how YOU doin’?” 😚

[FormeryHeavyJ]

Are you finished?  For now.  Give me ten minutes.

[7EasyPayments]

1346 calories today, Dr, Now approved.

480 of which are Hershey's Milk Chocolate..........bite me!!

That's what the chocolate said! 😉 🍫 🤣

[ShortyMac]

Hello!

I love Fruity Pebbles...

Cheers!

[Pepper Mostly]

"Food is comfort". Jesus, they've all learned the buzz words. 

And her mother sits there and watches her. Like she's five. Christ almighty.

[Concerned]

They are both insane. When I eat I feel love. Food is my best friend. I feed her because I love her and want her to be happy. It’s like Christmas Day to go to the supermarket. barf.

[Caoimhe]

Had lovely fish for dinner tonight.  Disaster of a weekend eating-wise though.  Luckily(?) I’m not a “picky eater” like Megan.

[nytonc]

Someone sitting at a table to eat? Am I watching the right show?

[Otter]

Okay, live chat is just like when my late mom and I snarked liked crazy to each other.  

Is this like a SMothered episode?

 

[FormeryHeavyJ]

Motorized cart.  Of course.

[ams1001]

"I shouldn't but I do."

 

She can walk and drive. That's pretty good for this show...
