Those meal delivery services are EXPENSIVE. 

Well that part time receptionist job must pay well. 

Looks like Chris has a job, though. Lord knows they're not spending money on season tickets to the opera.

Didn't someone on Real World (MTV reality show forerunner from the 90s) have their jaw wired shut to get ready for her wedding to some NBA dude?  I remember a story line about it for about ten minutes.

That was Tami ... one of my all-time faves!

[umgoblue]

There are so many cats moving around at the same time, not only does it remind me of an episode of Hoarders, but it also harkens visions of the ever-present roaches in those same situations.  Blech.

Listen to her!!! Bitch, don't ask him for it - take responsibility for what you eat yourself!  Get off your fat ass and get it yourself.

Also I think she should respect his meal plan enough not to temp him with that stuff. 

[Armchair Critic]

At least her husband isn't cheating since she isn't giving him any. Melissa one of the first people on this show her husband was acting like husband of the year to her but behind her back finding women online and cheating.

They microwaved it to death

Ruining fish or seafood should be a crime!

9:10 and still nothing exciting... Yawn...

I wouldn't mind discussing that.  Ancient History was one of my favorite areas although Roman history was my favorite.

I belong to One Day University. Highly recommend

And microwaving it is just pouring salt in the wound..

Wake up!!!  🤣🤣🤣

[OoogleEyes]

At least they're both working, and, with that trailer, it doesn't appear as though the living expenses are high.

Although, that money might be better spent on cooking lessons. 

[MrsClaus]

Still doesn't look like she's lost weight

Especially if it's pre cooked and medically supervised

[mk828]

omg carry your own purse!! 

[Chicklet]

She really can't carry her own purse, what's with that? And only 34 pounds down but so not on the program, she must be cheating.

[Concerned]

Mike Rowe must have a great agent. He has a never ending string of shows and minimal talent. We get it— working with your hands is satisfying.

[umgoblue]

Chris doesn't care enough about life to have his shirt on right-side out.

[Armchair Critic]

@Floatingbison I think it was Giant Misfit who said it was Tammi from Real World who wired her jaw because she was marrying the athlete?

[Pepper Mostly]

I do not think she has lost 60 pounds. Call me crazy.

[Scarlett45]

Chris did well!

Or a house cleaner.

Well, she probably wouldn't fit in the seats at the opera.  They can't afford tickets because they are spending it on food.

 

I missed the into--does the daughter live there as well?  if so, she needs to go to a therapy session on enabling, too.

I do like that therapy is starting now.  I hope it works.  Since daddy died after this type of surgery, maybe a letter to daddy wouldn't be amiss. 

[CrazyInAlabama]

So she's down to 556 (34 since last time), and he's down to 289 (down 17 since last time).   However, her nasty remark about Chris was uncalled for. 

Another person who's blaming fruit. 

It really ticked her off when Dr. Now said Chris was doing a lot better than she is.

[Armchair Critic]

If she wants slow steady weight loss she needs to go on something like WW. Dr. Now expects you to drop the weight fast.

Close but no candy cigar.....

LOVED Tami! "It wasn't.Not.FUNNY"

[Twopper]

[OoogleEyes]

OH NOES! FRUIT!!

[Suzywriter]

Fruit again!

Giant Misfit and Armchair, . . . Tammi sure sounds right.  Memories, misty water colored memories. . .

She couldn't just let him have that win, she had to try to take him down a notch. That is not a good look from a spouse that is supposed to be cheering you on.

FROOOOT !!! NO !🍍🍇🍊

Grapes! Oranges! They’re good for you.

I wonder if there's some logo or something on it they're hiding. When I was in high school once my math teacher made a kid turn his shirt inside out because it had a beer logo on it.

I'm so old I remember when the first season of The Real World came out. And also when MTV actually played music videos.

[poeticlicensed]

How can she not know what she's eating?

[ams1001]

"Possibly"

"I think you mean probably"

"Probably, I guess"

[Granny58]

When dr. Now is talking this is what I hear is yabba yabba yabba...

She knows. But that involves telling the truth. Instead “she’s working really hard”.

Yes, the Roman part.    I am currently studying The Great Works of Sacred Music.  We are so boring....

They won't let him wear his Ugly Beards Club shirt. 

[Kid]

Is Dr. Now on to her or what!!

[Concerned]

Weird that Dr Now puts them in competition. He’s doing better than Carrie, proportionately. Especially a problem given that her mother compared her unfavorably to her younger brother. Dr Now has used this competition scheme before.

[MrsClaus]

Ok, so what exactly does Carrie do for herself?  She doesn't carry her own purse.  Have we seen her fixing dinner for the two of them?  Lunch for her to take to work?  Laundry?  What does she do besides work?  Chris is working and doing stuff around the house.

In one scene it looked like he was wearing an auto mechanic's uniform and they generally make a good salary. The trailer is probably paid for. Or they're squatters. It looks pretty rough!

Yea I'm reading 2 books on early English history, I'm that boring too.

[umgoblue]

I like (NOT) how she rationalized why he did better than she did...less to lose (which is the exact opposite of how this works. Ask anyone from the Biggest Loser).  My faith is hanging on by a thread.

[7EasyPayments]

She's mucho bitchy, and he doesn't seem to mind. Wouldn't fly with me.
