S10.E04: Mike's Journey LIVE CHAT

[Kid]

Stop hormone replacement therapy, Debbie, and that will end your sex drive!

[CringeWatcher]

I’m just now catching up to the Chinese food scene. Lordt Jeebus! I don’t know how these folks physically do it. That food on his plate would literally go bad before my boyfriend AND I, and my gluttonous chihuahua (he’s not fat; he’s fluffy ☺️) could finish it. 

[Boston]

I live in a small apt. bldg.. There was a bag that was from Prime in the lobby area.  It said (I kid you not) "from Santa".  I looked at it and said, no that's not for me.. but then i said "there's no address"  - all in my head, mind you.  I opened it (it was small - and AGAIN, no address - could have been a bomb for all i knew).. but nope... IT WAS BACON!!!  I kept it and threw it in the freezer.  If any of my 5 other apt dwellers are looking for it .. they can have it, if not?  it's for Christmas!!  I love Christmas stories.

[babyhouseman]

He cheated but he's back on the diet now.

Did others get the boxed wine commercial?  I don't drink, but my sister is a great friend of the boxed wine. This was her Christmas tree a few years ago. I may have posted it before.

I believe that it's probably in the custody agreement that he can't take the kids out of state, so if he moves to Houston he won't see them for the year or however long he's in Houston.  That's how they work.  

He could come back and visit them twice a month or so.

[DropTheSoap]

“I’ll choose my kids.”

The ones who never visit the troll in the dungeon? Those kids?

The excuses begin. 

Meanwhile, I’m making a jello mold. I’ve reached peak Midwestern. (I never eat the jello…I inherited the job.)

[Suzywriter]

Is he eating 18 boiled eggs for breakfast? 

 

[sainte-chapelle]

He looks the same to me….does this mattress make me look fat?

[Hellga]

Shooting hoops is a good start but not enough.  Walking would burn way more calories.  Just find a nice park where it's interesting to walk.  I agree that walking through the neighborhood is not that exciting...

[Chicklet]

He does not look much smaller.

Wait, HRT killed mine....I mean dose 4, and it keeled over, never to be heard from again.

"I'm following the diet..."   So tell me about the mayonaise you just put on the counter.

An excellent body lubricant.............

[Pepper Mostly]

Oh Mike. Dr. Now has heard it all before. 

Here we go! "I've got a lot of stuff going on". LIKE WHAT??

[Hellga]

He *feels* he lost a lot of weight.  Don't they all?  After all, they work so hard!  But proof is in (on?) the scale!

I don't feel tardy.

Dude didn’t follow the diet and is putting off his appointment. @Pepper Mostly is that a bingo square?

Dr. Now's book is called "the scale doesn't lie".

[Eldemarge]

Please lord, do not give this useless man custody of his kids.

[Chicklet]

He actually said he enjoyed the diet. First big lie dude. Nobody enjoys that diet.

Michael Phelps did (when he was actively training and competing).  What's good for one Michael gotta be good for another, right?

[dreadfulLeigh]

OMFG the rasping huffing over the mic as dr now is trying to talk 😮 

[Donut Bear]

This is a guy who has had a lifetime of eating a million calories a day and now in a month he is “enjoying the diet”.  Okayyyyy

There is not an appropriate reaction option for that sentence...🤮

[mmecorday]

There should be some weight loss competition show hosted by Dr. Now called "Do You Tink You Can Do Dat?"

That's in the Fattie Rule Book, I believe its Rule One. "If you haven't lost weight, cancel your appointment. Tell Dr. Now you have a lot going on. He'll totally buy it"

I hear from a certain man about town who's a big deal with the laydeez that its a good hair conditioner!

[babyhouseman]

Why is his father there for a video chat? He thinks Mike will eat the computer?

It's all for the kids!

[Kid]

Does anyone think he will make that goal?  Anyone?

[CrazyInAlabama]

Is everything in his parent's house Ohio State stuff?    

So, if he fails it's going to be his kids' fault?   

It's telling that his kids never come to the parents' house, but he always goes to where they are.   

Edited November 25, 2021 by CrazyInAlabama

[Hellga]

Nah, dude, whom are you kidding?  Food is far more important to you than your kids, your whole life for the last few years has been a proof of that.

[dreadfulLeigh]

I couldn’t find the bottle opener, so I missed a bit and came back when he was yapping about how much weight he’d lost already 🤔 Sure, buddy.

[poeticlicensed]

I need to b*tch slap dad for telling him he's doing good

Purple mattress…soft where you want it and firm where you want it 😳

Only slight difference?  Phelps was burning a billion calories a day. 

Fat Mike, what say you?

[dreadfulLeigh]

He’s another one saying he’ll show Dr. Now how much weight he’s lost. Nothing about doing for himself. Or, y‘know, to not die.

[babyhouseman]

Just find a cattle scale in Ohio and get weighed.

I actually remember some stupid '100 ways to use mayo' article or something along those lines.  I remember that you were supposed to fill single-use gloves with mayo, put your hands into them and sleep like that all night.  And also slather mayo on your hair, wrap it in plastic and leave overnight.  I am sure that would make any naughtier types of lubricant totally unnecessary!

[ams1001]

Looks like it's time for my yearly recitation of "I wish I made the kind of money that would allow me to buy a luxury car (or two) for my spouse without discussing it with them first."

(I wouldn't. I just wish I had the money.)

Well, there's one that "Too stressed, can't do the diet" or "has to cancel appointment because there's a lot going on". There's also "I haven't weighed myself but I feel that I've lost weight". 

[poeticlicensed]

Surprised Dr Now didn't find a place for him to get weighed. I think they are saving it for the next fail  segment 

[dreadfulLeigh]

My kid heard the “pee in the dating pool” thing the other day, and being a very literal 6 yo would not stop asking me why there’s pee in that lady’s pool.

[Chicklet]

He flew? Like in a plane? Where is the video proof of this feat?

[mmecorday]

Yay! he got a new shirt!
