Pauline said in a magazine article that she was losing weight with Sexercise 😩

AAAAAH! THOSE LEGS!

[Guest]

Pauline: [Mine] are the ugliest legs I've ever seen.

Guess Pauline hasn't any other episodes of this show besides her own.

[ams1001]

Turquoise must really be her favorite color.

Why does only one doggie get a (too-small) dress?

[peaceknit]

My first car was a hand me down from my aunt, a 1955 Chevy Bel Air (excellent vintage!), black and white like a saddle shoe. I knew nothing of cars and never added oil or water, just gas. The engine froze up on me one day, and it ended up parked on the street until my mother sold it to a couple of guys. She said she saw it a couple years later painted bright yellow, with jacked up back tires, a hotrod. Wish I had that car now...

[mk828]

Seeing Pauline's son again made me realize who he reminded me of.. and bam!

 

[Pepper Mostly]

Everyone drink whenever one of these feebs says "I'll do whatever it takes".

[Guest]

Pauline: I hope Dr Now takes me back.

Guess she doesn't notice the TLC camera crew following her around.

[CrazyInAlabama]

I love it, Pauline saying she might weigh a little more than 300 now?   I'm betting 400 easy. 

[Miracle Maxie]

Okay, say it with me y’all: Ow! Her legs!

[OoogleEyes]

Those legs do look painful

The one thing I remember about Alicia is her boyfriend.  He is a recovering addict himself and he did not enable her.  He was supported her and called her on her bull when necessary.

This is what I remembered, too. Surprised to read here that he seems controlling.  Hmm.

[umgoblue]

Quitting Dr. Now's program wasn't stupid because she would likely gain her weight back but because she can't the free hacker skin removal surgery!😒🤔😂

[Chicklet]

I wonder what happened to her son, evidently she ate him.

[7EasyPayments]

P: "These are the ugliest legs I've ever seen."

You need to phrase it in the form of a question, Pauline.

I loved the look of mid 60s Montereys, with that snifty rear window that rolled down.

Yes it had rear fins!  A real looker for sure.  

[Hellga]

This is my first experience with Pauline... wow her legs looked barely human.

I loved the look of Chevy Bel Airs!

Really need the vomit emoji.  She's going to get carpal tunnel from masturbation (because we know she's not getting it from someone).

Mine was the infamous  ... unsafe at any speed ... Corvair.   

When you are a woman in the early 70s, with zero assets,  what are you going to do?

And Pauline .. idk.

My brother had a Corvair that he took off a freeway ramp at about 65 MPH.  Hit a Mercedes and landed on top of a Porsche.  Way to take out the most expensive cars on the street.

Hi pounders! Pizza for me tonight! Dr. Now would be upset with me... 

At least you aren’t eating the dreaded grapes and yogurt or *gasp* oranges

What is funny is that my first bf (later hubs) had a 56 Bel Air, and his WAS a hotrod. Bel Airs were tanks and the wheel was huge.

So when Alicia says she needs to "dig a little deeper"  all I could hear in my head is the Oak Ridge Boys singing "Dig a Little Deeper in the Well."

I agree with Pauline; those are the ugliest legs I have ever seen.

Now you're bringing up some GOOOOOOOOD memories!

[Snarkastikate]

Have to say it but compared to the subhuman blob she was, Pauline is not that bad.  It's all relative I guess - lowered expectations.   I see she's still rocking that powder blue.  I definitely recall that same color stretch pants in earlier episodes.  

[umgoblue]

What I have learned in the few minutes that I have been tuned in:

Y'all are so bored, that the conversation is about cars!  ❤️ ❤️

(Whispers:  I love when we are off topic)

Forgive me for laughing, I hope he didn't get badly hurt.  Wasn't Nader's book on the Corvair, "Unsafe at any Speed?"

[88Keys]

I somehow doubt any of these people ever really push themselves too hard.

[poeticlicensed]

I spend all day in virtual meetings. Why would I want to watch a show where people meet in zoom?

Wow! I had a 66 Plymouth Valiant that was handed down from my father. 

[Miracle Maxie]

Thanks to this discussion I’ve realized that nearly all my exes drove Chevys. Now I know why I’m so resistant to a friend who keeps telling me they’re the best cars. 

[Chicklet]

Uhoh here goes Tim making sure she doesn't lose a lot of weight. Way to go Tim make sure she only loses 2 pounds!

But at the time, she was pretty much stuck in the house. He had the control. Now she's developing as her own person, and that's probably scary to him.

[Gbb]

Yep. Tim wants her to stay fat and dependent

Me neither!!!  He impressed me during her initial episode!

Gilbert was sympathetic in Lupe’s first episode. Just sayin’

[ams1001]

'k, I finally looked up at the screen at the right time to see the car. 😄

If I went over 50, the entire car shook violently.  Eventually, my left front axle broke off ...  while parked.  Those were the days!

[MsVixen]

Looked away for a moment.  What did Alicia weigh?

LOL.  I hope he was OK.  When we were first married, my husband called me and said "I hit another car.  But I'm OK."  Me: What kind of car did you hit?  Him: Umm...A BMW.  

Sigh.

OMG my aunt who was only a few years older than me had a Corvair, I think it had rear louvered windows.  And I remember "Unsafe at any Speed".   My age is showing. 

[Guest]

OMG is there going to be another hour of Alicia weighing in and failing at every turn and talking about how "hard" she's "trying?" COME ON. I mean, I'm not losing money watching this but I am losing brain cells.

[umgoblue]

Tim = Sabotage

And she is buying into it...

[poeticlicensed]

Lost 2 pounds

I use zoom once a week, for a fun purpose (college friend set up a "dorm" reunion which has been nice; we've done it that last 4 Sundays). I still don't want to watch a show where people meet in zoom.

Come running with me tomorrow morning.  3.25 miles.  

Sure...it's easier than my 4 (but just barely).

[88Keys]

Damn, Dr. Now does NOT like Tim!

I wonder if Pauline is still doing water aerobics in her light blue polyester stretch pants?

I think that is her only outfit!

I know I say this every time, but I fondly remember one night when the subject was so boring we had a lively discussion about peeling cucumbers!
