M600LL: The Rerun LIVE CHAT

[7EasyPayments]

I saw Dr. Now write C - U - scribble scribble scribble BITCH !!!!!! 🤣

[PrincessPurrsALot]

She's going to miss so many appointments that in her mind she'll be underweight.  Of course she still won't be able to walk or lift her leg into a tub or breath without oxygen or pull a shirt over her stomach or . . . . 

However, unlike Penny, she can already wash her "vagina" as we saw in the opening scene.

[CrazyInAlabama]

So now she's trying to guilt the ex-boyfriend Eric, or her brother or someone else to driving her to Houston?    What they should do is get a big U-Haul van, drive straight through to Texas, and leave her at a Whataburger parking lot.  

If most of the others on this show can find an apartment from where they're living now, then she can too.

In Farsi.

[7EasyPayments]

I guess the people who watch the OTHER freeeekazoid programs on TLC think 600 LB Life is unwatchable. LOLOLOL 🤪💩

[mmecorday]

If you're using a piano bench as a chair at the kitchen table, you are probably not losing as much weight as you thought.

[PrincessPurrsALot]

Blame the small child for your bad choices.  Perfect!

[mmecorday]

"It might seem like I've gave up." Jeez ...

[PrincessPurrsALot]

The seat is all the way back.  She hasn't lost weight.  She just quit trying to fit in the van with the seat in place because no one is around to shuttle her.

It might seem like you failed English in school too.

Good night, folks.

[7EasyPayments]

Ugh those sisters !!!! 

MAKE IT STOOOPPP !!!! LOLOL 😈

Later people ! 🙂

[fonfereksglen]

Thank you all!

[PrincessPurrsALot]

Pounders, 

We have decided that you have found a good path forward for rewatch live chats.  That is, bump up the existing episode thread and chat there.  Since TLC reruns and reruns and reruns again, this should be a good path going forward.  Thanks for joining us in this forum. 

[PrincessPurrsALot]

Opening the thread in case anyone wants to live chat tonight's reruns.  Now on, Chuck's first episode in which we meet his wife, Nissa, who, in hindsight, is waiting for Chuck to lose enough weight to be able to go back to work so she can dump his verbally abusive, whiny self.

He is overall abusive to his wife.  Doubt he cares much about the little one as well.

[PrincessPurrsALot]

It's the Chuck sobfest during which it's all about who will take care fo him versus what can he do to make things better.  

[fonfereksglen]

Every time Chuck wades into that pond, I hope his crotch is covered with leaches.

[fonfereksglen]

I guess because of the 5 minutes plus extra of commercials, we miss so much.  Didn't he owned a tow truck company? And was too fat to work.

Also, I guess the reason for the huge weight losses in the early years was bypass vs sleeve?

In the end, Chuck was the worst person who was a success.

 

[OoogleEyes]

Ick, Paula. I just watched her episode earlier today 

[PrincessPurrsALot]

With Chuck all the weight loss in the world is not going to fix his shitty personality.

[insert leech-in-Wil-Wheaton's-underwear scene from Stand By Me which I feel is kind of inappropriate to actually post here]

[PrincessPurrsALot]

Hey Chuck, it's not that Nissa thought you were too big to take care of your family.  You weren't taking care of your family or even yourself.  

[OoogleEyes]

Wow! Look at that Box of fresh fruit and vegetables!!

[OoogleEyes]

Chuck doesn't see the baby at all? Wow, that must have been a nasty divorce

There appears to be a lot of missing topic threads from the early years.  I vaguely remember lots of backstory and links contained in those threads.  

[CrazyInAlabama]

As I recall, Nissa was the adoptive mother, or foster mother, and I think the kid was related to her somehow.     Chuck has no rights to visitation.   I'm so glad she recognized Chuck for the abusive jerk he is, and divorced him.   The next wife dumped him pretty quickly too.  

[PrincessPurrsALot]

God certainly didn't bring Chuck to her.  I would blame the devil but I enjoy the show Lucifer too much.  He would punish Chuck, not the various women brought into his world. 

[fonfereksglen]

Chuck certainly had a type!  Too bad he was such an ass.

[PrincessPurrsALot]

Narrator: Chuck will make the same mistakes this time around. 

One hour episodes are so much better.  So much less watching people sit and stare.

It's Marla who damn near does the splits so her daughter can wash her snatch.

Guess you didn't watch Bettie Jo and Joshua earlier today.  😁

Still has the nice manicure!

Bed chicken!

[mmecorday]

Are we watching Marla's episode too?

[PrincessPurrsALot]

The thought of frying chicken in bed horrifies me.  😬

*Waves at PrincessPurrsALot*

My eating habit today was a grilled cheese sandwich and lemonade for lunch and Red Baron pizza with extra cheese for supper. I have reached maximum cheese for the day.

After glancing up just in time to see the above-referenced scene, I decided to go do the dishes.

[mmecorday]

Dr, Now has gotten harder to understand as he's aged.

I do like the hour long format much better. We miss out on the fast food trips along the way, but that's just about it.

And the motel stays. 

[PrincessPurrsALot]

Although the Nicole hotel meltdown is a classic.  I would hate to have missed that.  That bunch of bastards!

And the flying mattresses.

[PrincessPurrsALot]

They should figure out if they have enough footage to make it interesting.  Flying mattresses, car accidents, peeing into a tub in a restaurant parking lot - gold, Jerry, gold! Sitting like lumps staring at nothing, not so much.  

These early episodes are enjoyable because we don't have all of the filler and no one is as aware of how they appear on TV.  Also, we don't have the "right now", "it's my only chance" voiceovers of monotony.

[mmecorday]

I used to wonder what it was like to wear a mask for hours at a time in the operating room. I now know what that's like. Granted, I'm not performing major surgery; I'm just getting groceries.

[PrincessPurrsALot]

At least operating rooms are cold and often have extra oxygen pumped in which makes it easier to breath in a mask.  It is tough when it's hot but it's worth it.

Marla has no desire to change.  Her kids are over it.  Maybe tonight's theme is pounditicipants whose families are sick of their bullshit behavior.

Just like the early Intervention episodes.  

[mmecorday]

It seems like in the past, Dr. Now wasn't so strict about the patients losing a sizeable amount of weight before he'd consent to do the weight loss surgery.

[PrincessPurrsALot]

I think that changed as the show progressed because they thought it made for better TV.  Problem is it became very rote.  Lose ## pounds to qualify. Person fails.  Dr. Now is angry and/or disappointed.  Therapy and/or patient tries again. Patient loses weight. Patient gets surgery. Rinse and repeat. In the first season in which they tracked people for 7 years there was no weight loss requirement prior to surgery.

[mmecorday]

I had forgotten just how terrible Marla was.

[OoogleEyes]

Even Marla's kids are over her 

[PrincessPurrsALot]

When Marla's episode is over I'm going for a walk in her honor.  She is a nightmare.
