Season 02: LIVE CHAT

[SunnyBeBe]

I wonder who brought all that food into Tammy when she was in a facility.

[mmecorday]

Amy, that's belly fat, not baby weight.

[SunnyBeBe]

For some reason when I’m watching this show I feel a little ill....queasy....

[WhitneyWhit]

Amy honey that belly is not because of  your baby.

[Kid]

I can never unsee this!!

[ShortyMac]

That's not a pregnancy belly, she's fat.

[mmecorday]

OK, I'm going to make a plaster cast of my belly. "This is what stay at home orders did to me during the pandemic!"

[ShortyMac]

This is so awkward.

[PrincessPurrsALot]

Um, maybe don't even think about putting cow print behind a 600+ pound person.

[SunnyBeBe]

What did they say?

[PrincessPurrsALot]

When socially awkward people hold an online meet and greet.

[WhitneyWhit]

I mean what do you expect when you go to a "meet and greet" with two people who quite literally do nothing but sit on their couch all day calling each other a bitch? What is there to even ask them about? "So do you prefer the right or left side of the couch?"

Tammy always looks so angry.  She's shocked that she needs to lose 100 pounds.  Did she factor in needing to lose the 50 she gained?

That’s a pretty high level math concept.

[mmecorday]

"We're just like everybody else. Only we're huge and we have a reality TV series on TLC."

[SunnyBeBe]

The most entertaining they have been is the night they had family party and were dancing in the living room.  It was fun and funny.  Need more of that.  

[OldE]

   “Assisted living”??  Nope.  Nursing home.  I was a nursing home social worker.  If I ever admitted anyone her size my staff would have walked out on the spot.  I didn’t realize everyone in the family had done their duty with Tammy.  

[chenoa333]

Sadly I don't think Tammy is ever going to lose weight and get healthier. Everyone else in her life who has been important to her (Amy, Amy's husband) are moving along in life with other things...a baby, weight loss etc.

Tammy probably feels like she's been left behind and nobody cares about her anymore. She needs a good therapist/psychiatrist to help her learn that she has self worth and doesn't need Amy or Mr. Amy to have a good life.

"It meaned a lot to me."

It's probably one of the reasons why she doesn't want to lose weight. If she loses weight, she will have to take care of herself.

Earlier tonight Tammy’s  brother said she’d have to go to assisted living, then Amy said that Tammy was in one before she asked her to come live with her.....then of course they got her that apt next door.   If someone needs assistance in living, your expectations are unreasonable to take them out and think they are going to live without it.  I bet plenty of people warned Amy.

   The episode with the therapist went sideways REAL fast.

[WhitneyWhit]

"I'm scared she'll stop her diet" Who wants to tell her?

[mmecorday]

These girls are still enjoying their sodies.

[MagicEyes]

They flip-flop so quickly. Sometimes they’re both very rational in the talking heads, and it’s the complete opposite of when they’re talking to each other. It feels like this is very clumsily faked, and it’s hard to know what’s real.

[ShortyMac]

Looks like hushpuppies or fritters on Tammy's plate.

[WhitneyWhit]

So Tammy doesn't think there's anything she can do to stop strangers from making comments about her? Maybe she should make a Youtube video and ask strangers or ask that reality television crew following her around.

[ShortyMac]

Oh, yeah, Tammy. You're not mad at all.

[mmecorday]

Night, all!

[Kid]

Addicts don't have families, they have hostages. Amy has a right to her own life.

[SunnyBeBe]

Good night everybody.  See ya later.

[RedDelicious]

This was kind of a nothing burger episode. I felt like Amy’s belly was pregnancy on the top and previous weight on the bottom 😬

Who wants to place bets on Tammy’s secret from her bawfriend? 

Spoiler

Maybe she’s...married! 😱

HGTV house hunter: I want a gourmet kitchen as large as a regulation basketball court, at least five bedrooms and six bathrooms, outdoor entertaining space, a heated pool, and a large backyard.

Amy: I want a dishwasher.

I loved that Amy was so happy tp be moving into a modest house. I bet Michael will be glad to move away from Tammy.

[magemaud]

I understand she’s happy about it, but does Amy have to work her pregnancy into EVERY sentence?

These people just kill me. Whitney Thor is the same way. They put their entire lives out on the Internet and do a reality show then they whine that they have haters.

Stop doing what you're doing. Live your life and eat yourself to death if you want to and no one will know about it if you don't put it out there.

[PrincessPurrsALot]

We will now have one season long LIVE CHAT thread.  The episode descriptions will be included so you can see where we are at in the season.  The thread will be open during the initial US showing.

Hi, guys!  Hope all are well.

[mmecorday]

Hello, all!

[RedDelicious]

Tammy has some dance moves, what?

[mmecorday]

Tammy has pretty eyes.  Who knew?

Can you see them without lifting her forehead bulge?

She does. I feel like both Tammy and Amy would be pretty girls if they weren’t so unhealthy. It’s such a shame. 

[mmecorday]

Yeah, when your long-distance boyfriend visits, make sure you wear your fanciest moth-eaten shirt.

[aliya]

When is someone gonna say this guy is married?

[ShortyMac]

He doesn't only have six kids, he has FIVE grandkids!!!!!!!!

[PrincessPurrsALot]

Any idea how old Jerry is? 

[ShortyMac]

He's 46.

[SunnyBeBe]

This is just sad.  Tammy really believes he’s in to her.

Goodness! He'd 3 yrs older than my son and looks old enough to be his father. Wow. Hard life, I guess.

[mmecorday]

Amy's husband has been talking much more this season. I used to think he was like Teller to Amy's Penn Jillette.
