Bet y'all didn't know that Omar the Tent Maker could make such pretty dresses!

I really wonder where she gets them because she looks good in them!

Me too! It really worked....until it murdered you.

Sheeh. I wonder sometimes how I made it through the 80's 

You are both still alive, so it worked and DIDN'T murder you! I am so jealous!

I used to use Dexatrim in the 80s, when it was made of Phenylpropanolamine and Pseudoephedrine. Man, that stuff was like appetite-killing rocket fuel. I could clean really well on it, too.

Anybody seen Dr. Now's book?

It's on amazon. It's a little expensive. If you read the sample, he has a lot of background info on obesity and emotions/attitudes that make for successful weight loss. I bet it's not bad if you've never heard any of this before. It's not just a calorie count book. 

[LEILANI2]

Hey at least she has these great dresses and doesn't just swath herself in a sheet.

[TazDevil]

I'm confused.  She's actually following the program and making an effort.  Am I watching the right show??

[Pepper Mostly]

Oh, she's doing those all important neck exercises. She's like Lupe with her bed jogging, or that guy who "exercised" by rotating his feet. 

[7EasyPayments]

She's working those MUUMUUs !!!

[fonfereksglen]

Must have stopped by Lola's office first.

I feel like we are not the target audience for this commercial for going to church...

a commercial for going to church? I am behind and FFing thru the commercials.  I will have to go back and see that one.

[Pepper Mostly]

Well, she walked in without huffing and puffing and groaning. 

[Kid]

She is walking better.

[Suzywriter]

She is holding HERSELF accountable! What show is this?

Oh, the orange is dredlocks, and it's gorgeous!
 

[Pepper Mostly]

She's another one, though, who equates eating healthy with "never eating anything good again". She's going to have to learn to love salad. 

[Suzywriter]

Dammit, she's really pretty too. 

All of these positives...this sis not good sichuacion.

Spinach salad is one of the most delicious foods, but I've loved spinach since I was a child.

[LEILANI2]

I think this every episode but why can't she just keep doing this, lose 20 pounds a month til she's at a a reasonable size.

These people don't need this surgery.

[CrazyInAlabama]

month 1 604, month 3 (?) 558 (down 46 lbs.)     I'm getting hope again.    

I hope she can qualify for the surgery again.   I'm wondering how the endoscopy will go?  

I don't like the head front and back exercise, that will be hard on the neck, and blood vessels.

[babyhouseman]

She can start a new exercise craze, Bopping your head to the oldies.

But so far, so good.

[Julyolo]

Sorry for her flip flops. They have the weight of the world on them.

You know...I do, too. 
I lose best on strong stimulants and diet shakes. I have to pretty much quit food cold turkey (mmm, turkey...with ranch dressing) or I just can't manage to stick to anything.

Yup, me thinks she's "cleaning up" the kids dinners after they're finished.  She's off to a good start.....too good in fact.  I'm skeptical, for her kids sake I hope I'm wrong. 

[dreadfulLeigh]

How old did she say she was when she started on blood pressure medication?

Most will never diet long enough to lose all the weight they need to lose. They have physical problems that will kill them before they lose the weight. Many can't move very much and need to lose significant weight quickly so they can add exercise to their program and live long enough to meet their goal. It's complicated.

The 20 pounds a month would decrease to around 10 pounds a month, and it would probably take 2-3 years.  That would be extremely hard to maintain.

I saw it on Dr. Now's website, at one point he was selling signed copies.

[7EasyPayments]

Jose Eber !!!! Where RRRR UUUU?

[Suzywriter]

I am sitting here doing head bops and shoulder shrugs while I watch.  Really. 

[LEILANI2]

Just by the way he is doing her hair, it's clear he resents her.

I think I am getting drunk on the bread pudding.  The whiskey sauce container had come open in the bag so I added a little more whiskey.

He made that irritated teeth-sucking noise while he was tangling her hair into a ball. 

[dreadfulLeigh]

Finally got to her 2nd appointment. She’s so pretty. Damn.

Sounds good to me, ENJOY !

[dreadfulLeigh]

It’s been an hour, and yet it feels like nothing has happened.

Remember when the squeezed 10 freaking years into 2 hours? Ah, memories.

[LEILANI2]

She doesn't look like she lost  any weight.

I love spinach and I eat it at least twice a week. I eat salad almost every day now, since my doctor read me the riot act this summer and told me I was too fat. So I've been dieting  pretty strictly since. And its been fine. I miss buttered toast but that's the price. If I can manage to dump any tonnage I'll revisit. I just gave up stuff like toast and butter and chips and sandwiches, and eat salad and plain chicken or fish. Every once in a while, an egg. Shrug. If I go out for a meal, which is not often, I have what I want. 

[LEILANI2]

The dresses are still tight on her.

I hope that he doesn't turn into an asshole. 

Bright side: we need *somebody* to snark on..

[mk828]

Wonder if she will find any old cheetos or bowls of half eaten spaghetti laying around.. 

[aliya]

People move all the time, with kids. Shut up.

[MsVixen]

I guess they don't have jobs in Tennessee if they can move to Texas for a year.

[CrazyInAlabama]

So, she needs a full gastric bypass, because she ate through the first gastric sleeve.   

I hate that moving to Houston should give them a chance to clean out the stuff we all have but don't really need, and everyone packs everything they have and get rid of nothing.       Romonte is doing the right thing, but Bianca will have start doing that for herself.   

Is the parent on Priceline the same as Dr. Rick on Progressive commercials?    The don't turn into your parents one, if I have the company wrong.

Going from Tennessee to Texas is "across the world"?
