S09.E19: Where Are They Now? Jeanne and Brandon LIVE CHAT

[Caoimhe]

Forget this “my body was craving” crap.   Jeanne has nothing but excuses.

[Pepper Mostly]

Jeanne. DR. NOW DOES NOT WANT YOU TO LOSE WEIGHT. YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT. 

[Suzywriter]

Pineapple!! That's what happened!

[MsVixen]

I had to prepare my dinner so I missed whether she has lost any weight.  Did she?

[mmecorday]

Was there vodka in the orange juice?

[Hellga]

I get craving orange juice.  I have a bottle in the fridge right now - the first one in more than a year, mind you - and I could have drank that whole half gallon in two days...  but I don't weigh 600 pounds.

She gets nine hours sleep a night! No one understands her poignant pain!

My oldest is about to turn 10, I haven't slept in almost 10 years and the nine months of pregnancy. 😭😂😂 

Help me, Dr. Nownobi, it's not my fault.

Jeanne is such a victim.

Victim of Jeanne.

There must be 20 brands of vitamins. If her body was craving vitamins because she had a cold (flawed logic, but OK), she should just take the vitamins.

[Hellga]

My body is craving something...

SUGAR and FAT, Jeanne, and just sheer VOLUME of food. 

[OoogleEyes]

OMG, I adore Dr. Now!!! "Your body is craving to be 600 lbs?"

Yet another thing to add to the deamon list...orange juice 

[mk828]

I love Dr. Now! He must hear so much bullshit on a daily basis.

[DNR]

I feel drained just watching Jeanne on TV.  So i can’t imagine being in her bubble in real life .  Poor Barbara , she couldn’t even return home & lie down . Her relentlessly needy  daughter was waiting for her to come home and get waited on hand & foot

We now have the Unholy Trinity of Fruit:  Orange, Grapes and Pineapple, that's what happened!

Emotional from what?!?!? Losing that cheque. She is a bitch.

I'm thinking since she can't be bothered to shower, taking vitamins is way too much "self care" for her.

[Nuccganggang]

this nasty cow again 🤮 lol @ her mommy shushing her!

[Hellga]

She really thinks she can whine her way into having surgery?  Yeah right...  

[ams1001]

I'm laughing at this orange juice conversation "because I was sick!"...when I was in college you weren't allowed to take food from the dining hall, but if you were sick you could get a "juice card" from the health center and then you could bring in a bottle and fill it with juice to take with you. The running joke was that no matter what was wrong with you, they'd give you a juice card...have a cold? Here's a juice card. Flu? Juice card. Ebola? Broken arm? Juice card.

But she's not making excuses or anything. 🙄

Maybe there should have been.

My body was craving a double cheese pizza and an entire Boston cream pie. BECAUSE I WAS SICK.

 

[Lillith]

Dr. Now sort of looks like he can't quite believe the BS that he's being forced to listen to.

Isn't she responsible for the oranges from the first time she was on? 

[Auntie Anxiety]

I’m laughing that Jeanne is thinking she can guilt Dr. Now into giving her the surgery. 

[sainte-chapelle]

TMI but Pineapple makes everything leave my body real quick. She should have lost a ton.

Barbara's a codependent enabler. 

[Hellga]

I love me a good full-blown poundticipant meltdown.

[ams1001]

I'm not trying to be difficult. It's just my natural state.

[CrazyInAlabama]

"We're going to lose 40 lbs. in a month", so mom is going to lose weight too?     Why do I suspect that Jeanne the Hut will never succeed, even if she weighs 100 lbs., and becomes a supermodel.    For someone who's not trying to be difficult, Jeanne certainly is.     

Barbara is so similar to a woman I used to work with years ago, also named Barbara.   A total doormat, who had the daughter she spoiled and enabled forever.     I see a lot of parallels between them.     So, Dr. Now did emergency surgery twice on Barbara, and she's sitting there watching her awful daughter give Dr. Now sass?    

Barbara is such a door mat, and enabler for her awful daughter.   The mother should think about what happens when she dies, and what her awful daughter will do then?

[sainte-chapelle]

Dr. Now “your body is craving to be 600 lbs?” ☠️ 

[Caoimhe]

Aw poor baby, crying to get her surgery.

[Eldemarge]

What is she "dealing" with, exactly?  Besides having to feed the dogs?  Is she the executor of her dad's will or something?  I highly doubt it.

[Pepper Mostly]

"I'm not trying to be difficult, its just that I don't know any other way to be". 

What the hell is "going on"? What is all this "stuff" she's "dealing with"? She is full of shit!

She may have been.  Who enlightened us to the dangers of sugar-free strawberry jam?  

[PaTatertots]

CHILD THE MAN IS WHAT, ALMOST 80!? Do you seriously think he hasn't lost a parent? Friend? Family members?? No, just you. Your family is the only family to lose someone. We're all secretly Tolkien's immortal Elves, and you're the only human. 

[magemaud]

I think this is the longest office visit I’ve ever seen on this show

THAT'S the problem. No vodka!

Absolutely.  No trying, it just comes naturally.

[mk828]

Just stop crying and do the damn work!

[Auntie Anxiety]

Dr. Now keeps trying to back out of the room but Jeanne needs someone to whine to.

Right???  She doesn't have a job.  She doesn't leave the house.  She barely cleans the house.

[DropTheSoap]

"I have so much to do..."

Like...what? Doesn't work. Doesn't clean. Doesn't bathe. Takes minimal care of dogs. Gets waited on by mom as much as possible.

[ams1001]

Did Mom just call Dr. Now "Sweetie"? 😂

There are some poundticipants who are just so awful that their weight is not even a factor in how hateful they are.

He appears to have left a vast estate 

[Snarkastikate]

That house will keep them both infected if either gets as much as a paper cut.  9 large dogs OMG.  Filth filth filth everywhere.  So dad was effing around, wow I sure didn't see that coming. I guess I'd be pretty pissed off by that too. 

Hell she lost 150 lbs and she's not bedbound, I say that's a WIN.  Dr Now has operated on some patients who lost way less than that.  What is that large growth on her right side?  Mom take sense, doesn't seem stupid, I like her.  So why their home is so dirty I don't get.  

Yeah she's way too sassy with Dr Now, she's dirty, but I kinda feel sorry for Jean.  She has no life, and she's never had a life.  I recall mom saying in the first episode that she loves her but if she knew Jean would be living like she is, she never would have had her.

I want to throw them into a giant washtub and scrub them on a washboard with a bottle of Pine Sol while they blubber that being clean hurts too much.

[PaTatertots]

Well shit, my body craved dirt at two points in my life. Surely that's not as detrimental as orange juice. Guess I'll eat it if I ever experience that again 😂

But y'all will have to remind me not to drink orange juice or eat grapes or crackers.
