Condolences.

My guess is that her 'little cheese' is a pound or two.  

She could walk around the apartment, and up and down the halls.  

Is she going to have the first on camera real heart attack?

[dreadfulLeigh]

I just wanna know: did a producer tell her to sit there “pensively” or did she just sit her ass down and blankly stare at the wall in front of a camera crew?

[ams1001]

I think her kitchen counter is the same as my bathroom vanity top.

[3girlsforus]

Brainstorm??? Didn't Dr. Now tell them exactly what to eat???

Exactly. Just more excuses.

Wait, why is Dr. Now blaming Cameo?

Every time they mention Cameo, I think of that Internet PPV

My idea of the perfect commercial break:  Sgt. Baker, then Princess Toast, then Tag Team!!!!  SPRINKLES!!!!

I would add the Geico "Wild Thing" or "Build me up Buttercup" commercials.

We might get a park walk if we're lucky. 

Maybe she'll go to the gym and "work out with a trainer". Or do water aerobics. Best case scenario, she'll make a Tinder profile and go on a date. 

[Guest]

OMG I CANNOT ANYMORE WITH THIS FAKE TLC APARTMENT. 

I sense a walk in the park is coming momentarily.

Guys, this is grim. I've never left live char early but I'm weakening. Talk me off the ledge!

Stay focused!  Watch that screen. Look for crazy stuff in the backgrounds.  Find an interesting camera angle.  Think about off-camera hygiene issues and the suspicious absence of tattoos.  YOU CAN DO IT.

[WonTon]

Shirt napkin!

[Kid]

There is enough room in her apartment to exercise. 

[Hana Chan]

This woman doesn't need a gym. What she needs is a pair of sneakers and to get off the fucking couch! Walking a half hour in the morning and at night will help her tremendously. 

[dreadfulLeigh]

Oh here comes the deprivation and starvation. Poor baby. I’ve read herbs and spices are total calorie whores. 

[Pepper Mostly]

She needs an air fryer. You don't need any oil or butter to cook, its awesome!

My condolences...

[LizzyB]

Good god, this maudlin string music really isn't helping us all stay awake and focused amongst the boringness.

[Donut Bear]

Them rails are cold!

[Kid]

 Why does she need her niece to go for a walk???

I have water with a bit of juice. Cherry, not grape or anything bad. Tart cherry juice supposedly helps you sleep...though the way things are going here I might not need it.

One of the clinical trials I audited was having medical residents use cherry juice instead of sleep aids. I didn't see how it wound up, but I thought it was interesting. People should know that herbal and non-traditional remedies increasingly get approval for research studies, so at some point, we'll have real scientific evidence about how some of these things work. 

[7EasyPayments]

I think she is going to WOK around the block.

[WonTon]

So they can "brainstorm" in the fresh air.

Its the Sad Music of Failure.

[Concerned]

When was this filmed? No sign of post March 2020 masks.

[hookedontv]

This bitch just said “I wish they were easier on me.” I can’t! 

[dreadfulLeigh]

I’m glad I didn’t have that glass of wine I had been contemplating. I would be passed out with this slog fest. 

[TazDevil]

Just now, Kid said:

Someone has to call 911 when she strokes out from the exertion.

[3girlsforus]

Work hard????? I don't think those words mean what you think they mean.

[Kid]

 What a drama queen!!!!

[WonTon]

That poor car!

[fonfereksglen]

I guess I missed the weigh in.  Any idea where I can order Mimi's leggings?

My guess: In case she drops dead.

She needs an audience for her drama.

[Pepper Mostly]

What is she, climbing Everest?

She has willpower.

Except she can't stick to the diet or exercise.

I was once in an elevator with someone who used spray on hair.  I am tall and was wearing heals so I had a great view as did a few people next to me.  We all held our laughter until painted head guy got off the elevator.  It was so bad. So. Bad. 

[magemaud]

How many cars is she going to dent? 

[WonTon]

Acckkkk....butt crack!

[dreadfulLeigh]

Um, does she own all these cars she’s leaning on? Oof

If it was a talking car, it would tell her to get the hell off.

contrasted with the perky music as she was leaving from the first visit.

Speaking of first visit,  what happened to her hacking cough?  did we get test results?

I have lost 3 of 4 games of Spider Solitaire in the past 10 minutes.   I think I am better at losing than she is.

[umgoblue]

They get me EVERY FN week believing that we finally have a successful poundticipant.

Fool me once shame on you...fool me 12 times...shame on me I am an FN idiot!

I HATE TLC/M600PL/Dr. Now/Season 9 Poundticipants...all EQUALLY!  Assholes.

I don't think I'll get tired of that Tag Team commercial any time soon. And every time y'all yell "SPRINKLES" I think of this:

New Hope for Sprinkles Sufferers

Oh, @sainte-chapelle I am so sorry.  We were all pulling for him, and for you.  Hang in there.  Thanks for joining us to let us know. 😢

Low expectations help. You'll still hate them all, but you won't have expected otherwise.

Her son seems like a fine young man.

For anyone just tuning in, here's where we've been so far:

After this round of commercials, we'll be back on Irene's couch.

You are all caught up now.

 

Hey, now...we saw the kitchen, too.
