I don't like very sweet desserts...  This one is Trader Joe's because I decided to give something new a try,  I usually go for Haagen-Dazs.  Their Caramel Cone is something else!

I was on a H-D Irish Cream Brownie kick for the longest time but I've been talking myself out of buying it lately because I have a hard time not eating the whole thing. 

lol...."Yoou can eat much less."

[Hellga]

Really, Brandon, scales don't lie.  You eyes do.  Invest in a food scale and weigh your portions!  And don't graze.

I settled on Salted Caramel ice cream (it's vanilla with a gooey caramel swirl) drizzled with chocolate syrup. In case anyone was wondering.

We get the Talenti gelato brand of that.  It is Mr Twopper's favorite, but I have now developed a taste for it.   So far he doesn't care for my coconut or Mediterranean mint or double chocolate so my favorites are safe from him.

I wonder how long until she works her mother to death.

Then she'll be like the guy who couldn't function without his mother and ate himself to death.

Sean. And yes, I agree, I see no other outcome. 

[Auntie Anxiety]

The girlfriend resembles Torrey? The one married to Zach Rogoff?

[sainte-chapelle]

I tend to graze. When I do that I am shocked by how fast I gain weight. Grazing is a killer.

It sounds like Oprah is saying "Soup or Soul." And Chip Gaines needs to wash his hair.

Oprah is one of the reasons I don't want it.  Even Joe Kenda cannot tempt me.

I haven't had Talenti in forever. I remember not loving the mint one. There was a chocolate brownie or something like that that I liked.

I am blaming you as I wipe the droplets of spewed rose from my screen.

Poor goat!

I usually try to buy the tiny cups because that way it doesn't sit open for too long in my freezer... unfortunately, the flavor selection is very limited for those.  If I buy a pint, I put three small scoops or so into a really pretty stemmed ice cream dish I have, which helps with portion control.   It's probably much harder if you eat straight out of the carton...

I just bought a food scale. It's a terrible blabbermouth, yelling out every .01th of an ounce. 4 ounces of anything looks like a tablespoon.

At my office, we always have snack food available in mass quantities. Cookies, candy, chips, crackers, you name it. I lost weight while I was at home during the month I was laid off last year.

[CrazyInAlabama]

Maybe writing letters, and contacting the estranged father is a bad idea for Brandon, and Lola should stop it.  

Jeanne looks as big as ever, but at least she got another outfit.   I bet Jeanne gained in the double digits.    When they start sniveling and whining before the weigh in, it's a bad sign.  

So Jeanne's weigh in result is she actually lost 38 lbs., but she should have lost 200.

Oh, fuck. I absolutely loathe wannabe musicians on these reality shows hoping someone will discover them.

I think they are so removed from reality, and yes I'll say it....LAZY that they feel this fun hobby is going to be some kind of career.  I wish more of these poundicipants would aspire to actual get a regular J.O.B.  I think they would feel more like normal adults, less as if things are always out of their control.  It's a growth thing.

Ohh geezz here we go again with the water works

[ams1001]

I've been through a lotta stuff!!

And that means you can't eat less?

[Hellga]

When they start whining even before they get on the scale, you know the weigh-in won't be in their favor!

So true 

On Instagram there’s a guy Vance who shares his weight loss for a year . He was up there in weight ( forget starting weight) Vance had a post this week where he ate a lot for four days ...... he stepped on the scale and gained 30 pounds over a long weekend . Crazy!

oh god back to Jeanne the sad sack .....

[Pepper Mostly]

Well, Jeanne's mother has lost a lot of weight. 

WHAT ARE YOU GOING THROUGH??

[Arynm]

Jeanne is delusional. Dr. Now didn't build a successful practice by lying to people and giving them incorrect information. You just don't want to hear it.

 

[magemaud]

Oh, for pity sake, Jeanne is crying before she even steps on the scale. 

How much did she gain on her “break”?

Yeah, I would put it in a bowl. Sometimes I do better and use a cute little glass yogurt cup that I saved.

Well, Jeanne had a long time to rehearse her bullshit very persuasive argument for why she didn’t lose any weight.

Jeanne's gotten through the first several decades of her life without having to be responsible. Why start now?

I've been working from home for over a year, as a result I never snack, just breakfast, lunch and supper. At work it was all snacks, all the time, plus foraging leftovers from catered meetings. 

But I still don't think I'm any thinner. Sad face.

This is a snooze fest but you guys make it fun

Carnie Wilson?  I may have the name wrong.  I think it's one of the Wilsons in Wilson-Philips.

Working from home has caused me to blow up like a parade balloon.

I'm at Dr. Now's office because I was forced back to see him! pout, pout, pout.

Wow, she lost 38 pounds on her break?!

[Hellga]

Oh the pathos.  I was forced back here.  At gunpoint, I presume...

But she did lose 38 pounds, even if it took her three months instead of one.

PS  I was too generous, it was actually five months.  That's basically 2 pounds a week, a weight loss rate for someone who is 250 pounds, not 550!

She "decided to take a break"? Ugh she's just the worst. 

[DropTheSoap]

Ditto.

[Snarkastikate]

She's lost almost 200 damn pounds...... c'mon Dr Now!!!!!!

[DNR]

“ i was forced to come back to see DrNow” 

STFU Jeanne !!!!

[mmecorday]

Someone must have run Jeanne through a car wash. She looks clean.

[Auntie Anxiety]

Oh dear, Dr.Now is going to get screamed at for Jeanne’s weight “loss.” She had nothing to do with it.

[TazDevil]

If she doesn't want to be there, then why does she care if Dr. Now kicks her out of his program??

I gained a little too. I move a lot less since I no longer commute, which consisted of subways steps, walking etc. I exercise but that additional movement adds up.

Good evening, Pounders! I'm late to the snarkfest because I went out for a glass of wine with my gal pals. I needed that! My eating habit was bibimbap because a Korean food truck was parked in our subdivision today, and I can't resist some good Korean food.

I'm not sure there's enough wine in the world to erase the image of dirt and dog hair in nohyJeanne's sutures. What a nasty and disgusting person she is!
