I change into my PJs the minute I get home from work.

Me too! Only I've been working from home for a year so basically I've been in my pajamas for a year. 

[Suzywriter]

Bloody or black stools...

Bethany was on earlier. At least Shannon isn’t murdering her daughters with food like Bethany.

Only because she doesn't have daughter to overfeed because she and Simon can't have a normal husband and wife relationship.

Insurance will pay for a full time caregiver for a disabled person. That person can be a family member. 

I work in this area as an attorney. In New York a spouse cannot be a paid caregiver on the Medicaid program, as the spouse is legally responsible for supporting the disabled person. Only other relatives such as grown children or grandchildren. I wonder why it’s allowed in their state.

Anyone who's going to show Dr. Now - those are the words predicting failure. No one who's going to show Dr. Now shows him anything other than he's right.

My eating habit tonight was a salad. It included a couple hard boiled eggs, some cherry tomatoes, and a bunch of olives because olives are awesome. Plus the olives said that they were best by 3/3, and I wanted the best.

Will Shannon take up bed jogging? 

Bedcersize. Oh, Lupe. 

[CrazyInAlabama]

Maybe she'll be the first poundticipant to get to Houston in the back of a rented moving truck, on a mattress, and rolling around at every corner!   

Since I'm guessing I-10 all of the way, they need to watch out for the speed traps in a couple of cities on the way.    I know people that got nailed in Van Horn, and Las Cruces, and paid dearly for that.  

[7EasyPayments]

727. 

Pounds, not IQ.

[magemaud]

Never guessed before, but I’m going to say 732 like my area code 

[Twopper]

So who wants to hear about why I found it necessary to scarf down a meal of at least 1500 calories? I need to remember this story for when I am on this show.

Bakers’ dozen donuts says this packet gets “lost.” 

Even if she eats half the breakfast she normally does she will lose weight. Bet she is a nope on that until the packet comes.

[Suzywriter]

I want that hypnosis  machine with the pedals!

My bicycle is up on a training stand anyway...I just need the umbrella thing. 

Hell, Justina, if I could get to your 'before' size, I'd be happy.

That salad sounds good. Lately I crave Greek salads.

She's already getting testy. This is going to be epic. 

Judging from car scene the intro, I agree.

gonna "try" to go to Houston?

Damn, that's a lotta pills.

It's allowed here in Maine also. Parents can also be fulltime caregivers here.

[mk828]

Looks like a whole pharmacy in that bin

[umgoblue]

713

 

I would be willing to increase it 10 more for all of the brown crud that is hanging off of her bat wings. If it is 723, gimme my prize!

[Guest]

How about you pack it yourself, lady? Your husband-slave doesn't need to do everything.

I have started to put on nice dresses and blouses for my work from home days because I am tired of being underdressed for year and I miss wearing all the nice things.  What's the point of owning 70+ dresses when you don't have an opportunity to wear them?  So I do, even if no one sees them but me and my hallway full-length mirror...

[Chicklet]

elbow wings too

rear view is distubing

That sounds so good!

[Concerned]

Must suck to be super fat in Tucson because it gets so hot summers.

[sagittarius sue]

How many days will it take her to get to Houston.  I'm guessing 4 days.

[ShoePrincess]

My weight guess ...

The scale screams "Get off me" and collapses into a heap.

Its like flossing for three days before you go to the dentist.

Hi Pounders! How's everyone's eating habit? I had a tuna sandwich and a small piece of chocolate cake, baked by my own dainty hands. 

I found the last Bingo card! 

Instead of FREE, "deep fat fryer balanced on mattress."

[Guest]

SHE HAS A MOTORIZED WHEELCHAIR?! 

That thing has got to be Winnebago sized.

 

[Suzywriter]

736.

That meandering eye is driving me nuts. It's so distracting! It makes her look even more disinterested.

[SunnyBeBe]

Omg....this is some serious obesity!

[Hellga]

Her legs are like a pair of oversized shar-pei dogs!

A friend's father had one of those, and it was a vicious little critter, too...

[MsVixen]

Now I see who the Michelin Man was modeled on......

[aliya]

Whew, those legs!

High cal meals are a nice treat once and a while!

[Kid]

I see drama coming on this trip!!!

[mk828]

Man I don't think jello giggles as much as she does when she "walks"... 

[sagittarius sue]

I'm going with 727.

[Suzywriter]

I am up to 8 creases on the right leg. Somebody please help me count! 

[steff13]

Gosh, I no longer feel guilty about the 4 Pecan Sandies I had for breakfast this morning.  

 

[Concerned]

Those legs and thighs are the stuff of nightmares. 

[nytonc]

All caught up. Shannon is a full bingo card for sure! She’s gotta be well over 700 lbs.  \\\\\\\\\\\\

[EtheltoTillie]

I have not watched this show in a couple of years. I don’t know why I decided to watch tonight, but hi everyone. I ate homemade pastitsio tonight. I recently lost 17 pounds on the COVID diet. For two weeks while sick I hard,y ate anything. I’m trying to keep it off. 

[SunnyBeBe]

Who thought she’d fit in that little car?

[SplashesinPuddle]

Good evenibg pounders! Im late tonight and holy crap those legs.

[JunkFoodTV]

Oh my.....she and I have basically the same hair. Shoulder length and a swoosh of gray. But I'm in my 60s and don't have shar pei legs. 

Eating habit is roasted turkey and a part of a sweet potato and apple slices.

[Guest]

There's going to be a trail of fire on the highway behind that minivan.
