She has what, FIVE people to "take care" of her? 

"Food is my only joy". 

This woman has two children. Wonder how they feel, knowing they're a distant second to bacon?

You never fail me, @Pepper Mostly

[Concerned]

Grave yard shift at the donut store. Eating together was how mon and daughter bonded. Oh no, molested.

[Chicklet]

BINGO!

It cannot be too early now.

[umgoblue]

She was so cute!  It is a shame....

and here we go...molestation.

[ams1001]

Most people pull their chair up to the table. She pulls the table up to her.

(And she's at least the third person to do that this season. Though this one doesn't look like it folds.)

[sainte-chapelle]

Im late...how old and how big?

[Suzywriter]

Girlfriend **pulled up the table**!

Hello, all! In the past week, my girlfriend had gallbladder surgery (she's fine), one of the cats was diagnosed with a severe UTI, we found out carpenter ants are destroying our front porch, and the atopic dermatitis on my left hand has flared up something awful.

This better be a good one tonight.

OK, I feel better about my week now.  My only problems are that my offer on a townhouse was badly outbid (Boston-area market is insane right now) and I need to let my landlord know whether I am going to renew my lease or not next week.  Plus I have four different types of orthodontic equipment in my mouth right now.  And I slacked off work today so I will have to catch up after the show and sacrifice sleep...

I'm pretty pissed that the Obligatory Bathroom Scene™️ has been replaced by the boring, Big Ass Breakfast™️ scene.

Mr. Poetic is very relieved. He starts groaning at the bathroom scenes

[Pepper Mostly]

Oh, its the "What's Eating Gilbert Grape?" table arrangement. 

She is ecstatically chewing that bacon. 

The daughters look quite glum.

This disclaimer about the episode containing "actual surgical procedures" is a cruel lie. When was the last time someone actually got surgery? 

I don't know what's more frustrating, watching this show or the extremely frustrating book I'm currently reading.

Spring Valley is suburban San Diego. She sounds articulate. She doesn’t seem to have a recognizably human form. Those kids need to be rescued.

Hello to my people!!!!

We had a late lunch of pizza and a sodie so dinner-- if I ever get hungry again-- will be a Vanilla Boost or Nurtiment Drink over ice. 

She sorta reminds me of the poundticipant a few weeks ago who was shaped like the Michelin man.

I was surprised she wasn't from Texas.  

[dreadfulLeigh]

Hello hello! I’m only 6 min behind today! Whoo! Take that, ya stupid time change!

That first nightgown was...definitely a choice. I thought it was her naked, mottled skin. Then the skirt (?) in her talking is like a giant bruise. Oof. 

[MsVixen]

Hi Pounders!  My eating habits are a Panera sandwich and Birds Eye Asian Medley vegetables.

Before I get into some serious snark, I going to say that Chrystal could have been attractive if she weren't obese.

[Concerned]

Got a job at a pizza place after high school — not a good situation if you already weigh 420. I got used a lot for sex, ugh.

[7EasyPayments]

A job atta pizzzza place, you gonna lose weight there.

[poeticlicensed]

 I know I shouldn't judge, but I sometimes have a niggling feeling about some of the poundtipsants molestation claims 

[Hellga]

What's that in her plate?  Looks like a lovechild of a pancake and a biscuit... 

[Pepper Mostly]

"Weight unknown"

I'm going to guess 667.

[Chicklet]

This will not turn out well. Ask me how I know?

[DropTheSoap]

My eating habit was a salad and a piece of ham.

[crazycatlady58]

Why is that young girl wearing a jacket in the house.

[umgoblue]

Molestation...fast food worker...

There is really a formula for the supermorbidly obese.  We could write a dissertation with M600PL episodes as the basis of the research.

[dreadfulLeigh]

Wow. Is she completely ignorant to the kill them with love she’s giving her kids??

[sainte-chapelle]

I’m being bad and eating buttered popcorn

He wasn't "literally" beating you to death because if that were LITERALLY true, you'd be a 600-lb Phantom Fat Person right now. 

[fonfereksglen]

Ok.  What is up with the whipping creme?

[Auntie Anxiety]

I’m going with 692.

[Suzywriter]

I have to admit, she has a jaunty way of narrating that is a breath of fresh air after weeks of sadder and sadder sacks.

[CrazyInAlabama]

80 lbs at 7 years old.  Molested as a child.  200 lbs. by 12,  Mother ignored the molestation, sadly not uncommon.  How horrible, every man she's ever been involved with has abused her.   

 

The younger daughter definitely doesn't want to be on camera. 

 

Chrystal Rollins, Age 39, Spring Valley, CA

Please tell me they won't just load her in a minivan and start driving.   22 hours and 1600 miles driving to Dr. Now's office.

May be an emergency "get groceries" order at any moment.

[Hellga]

Why is the younger girl wearing a hood indoors and even while eating? 

[dreadfulLeigh]

Omg the pop up table! Getting the bingo cards out now. 

[Quof]

 “My girls’s father”. Dammit.

I call 670

She's hiding from the camera.   I don't blame her.  

[umgoblue]

I want some bacon.

Howdy pounders!  What's your eating habit?  I'm having my usual wine with some cheese sticks (not relating to 90DF's unfortunate "Cheese Stick."

Oh, that reminds me I didn’t finish my glass of wine. 

[babyhouseman]

And she had abusive exes.

[poeticlicensed]

She eats ugly

I bet she puts it on the bacon.

Hiding from the camera.  

I bet they live off of microwave, and take out.  Neither daughter knows how to do pancake mix, or veggies, or any other cooking

[sainte-chapelle]

Not trying to be an asshole but she didn’t raise them, her mom and brother did.

[ams1001]

"....have to help take care of me with my daughters." Not "help take care of my daughters..."

Thank you. I shall sleep soundly tonight,

[Guest]

The bored, lifeless expressions on Chrystal's kids' faces right now are really speaking to me. 

[MsVixen]

"Trying to do for my kids" must mean supervising while sitting down.....

[Pepper Mostly]

"I try to do what I can to be a mom to them"

HOW??

Oh, she sits in the kitchen door and nags them. That's very moving. 

[Hellga]

That's an unexpectedly updated kitchen... the lady must have some money?
