Hellga January 6, 2022 Share January 6, 2022 Given she was already double the normal weight when her Dad died, it's obviously not THE cause of her overeating... 2 Link to comment

umgoblue January 6, 2022 Share January 6, 2022 (edited) She looks like the Michelin Man and the Pillsbury DoughBoy procreated. It's quite unfortunate, so I really hope that she is able to get surgery and be successful. ETA: I fear the fat around her neck may cause difficulty in breathing in the future.

Hellga January 6, 2022 Share January 6, 2022 And she is on therapy for endometrial cancer and on steroids. THose probably don't help her fat distribution either. They certainly don't make her weight worse, but probably do affect where fat goes on her body. 1 Link to comment

CrazyInAlabama January 6, 2022 Share January 6, 2022 (edited) It was amazing to see Amanda, compared to what she used to look like. I wondered her cancer issue came out. I don't like Jessica. I'm not thinking this one will keep weight off after surgery, if she ever gets that far. It terrifies me that she was driving with all of her physical problems. And what the hell tiny bangs were on that other woman's head? Edited January 6, 2022 by CrazyInAlabama 2 Link to comment

We had cooking, sewing and pattern-making as our home ec. We had lots of different optional or mandatory non-core courses... the fun one was emergency preparedness, where we learned bandaging wounds and putting on gas masks, among other things. Unfortunately, didn't do cool things like taking apart and putting together guns, like my parents' generation got to do. PS I still have the cotton-stuffed kitten I sewed out of orange silk when I was in school. :) Proudly displayed on one of my bookshelves. Edited January 6, 2022 by Hellga 1 1 Link to comment

Hellga January 6, 2022 Share January 6, 2022 Amanda would probably be a good coach and nutritionist, since she knows the other side, not just the professional side. 715 pounds down to 221 is amazing. And I hope she sustains it long-term! 2 minutes ago, umgoblue said: HIPAA?!?!?

Good for her. 3 Link to comment
SunnyBeBe January 6, 2022 Share January 6, 2022 I think I’d be very compelled to follow all of Dr. Proctor’s orders. 😜. Ok, I’ll stop it. Not sure why I’m feeling so feisty tonight. 5 1 Link to comment
