And he wears actual clothes. And shoes, even if they are Crocs. 

Look, I'm clutching at straws here, people. 

So, its 9:06, Dr. Now has cut the singing, crying manatee loose, what happens for the next hour? Are we just going to sit around and talk about our feelings or what? 

Expand  

Don’t besmirch the Manatee. They are beautiful, graceful  and majestic creatures

"I know I did better than that."

Evidently not.

[Auntie Anxiety]

Room 5 is the one with the large, open windows.

[charmed1]

Where is this man getting money to fly multiple trips? He has to be buying two seats or first class. 

[Pepper Mostly]

I KNOW ITS CLOSE. 

602. 

I am dead. 

[Hellga]

He lost 37 pounds, but I didn't catch over how many months.  It would be very respectable amount for 1 month, decent for 2, but not enough for anything longer than that.

PS  It was 3 months, so barely an improvement over 9 pounds the first month.

He never even read the diet, good lord.

The hamster that  I rescued from the animal shelter last weekend is a tiny, sabre-toothed, biting devil. I've named him "Fang".

Sounds adorable.

I realize that most of these people can't use a regular scale, but is there something contractually with TLC that stops them from finding a scale in a bariatric doctor's office or landfill?  I've seen other people do it after they've been to Dr Now and he doesn't want them traveling back and forth, but this whole thing of "I don't know what I weigh. I hope I did OK" is getting on my nerves.

[Guest]

Liar.  

[WhitneyWhit]

“I’m much lighter now”

The scale “That was a lie”

[libgirl2]

That sucked. 

[DropTheSoap]

I stopped snacking between my 10 meals a day.

Trying to build the suspense for a bored audience I suppose.

I would never! I actually love manatees. I just wanted to imply size. 

And I love you forever for using the word "besmirch". Its one of my favorites.

Didn't he just say "the scales don't lie, people do"?

[umgoblue]

Larry:  Dr. Now, you know I can't read.  I am not sure how much protein and portion size.

Dr. Now:  Here let me simplify it for you.  Only protein...almost none.  Got it?

One of my sisters doesn't like manatees for some reason. Once I found that out, I made it my business to send her a notebook with a cover that said, "Once there was a girl who loved manatees. And it was me." 

I'm evil that way.

[Hellga]

120 pounds in 3 months?  Yeah right.  I think he might lose 50-60, an incremental improvement over his current weight loss, but I don't think he can make the full change required.

[mmecorday]

He's a germaphobe, but he's OK with walking barefoot in a medical clinic.

[catlover79]

Where's Dr. Paradise????

[libgirl2]

Local as in I'm done with you! 

[babyhouseman]

I guess he can't read Dr. Now's book.

I agree.

Using “besmirch” was “sufficient” in expressing your idea.

[libgirl2]

He has shoes on now!

[MsVixen]

NOT the abused animals!!!  I can take anything but that!

Be careful.  Hamsters can be vicious.  And they can easily bite through the nail, and nails heal poorly.   Personal experience speaking! 

PS  I still have the picture of my favorite hamster I painted in 2nd grade art class!   she was the classic golden color.

Expand  

Thank you. I have experience with them, so his less-than-cheerful disposition is ok with me. This guy was given to a child as a birthday gift (first mistake) and kept in a small, stupid Critter-Keeper cage. Of course, the hamster bit, the kid lost interest, and the animal sat in his prison for 14 months until the parents ditched him at the humane society. 

Kids want them to act like tiny dogs and become a best friend. They are burrowing, nocturnal desert rodents...they don't climb, they don't do tricks, and they don't like being grabbed. He's perfect for me...we're both chubby, cranky and old. 😆

I'm building him a bigger cage, which will help his disposition. He still may not like me, and that's ok.

Didn't you know that bleach cures everything...even the nasty shit I am stepping on because I did not put on shoes!?!?  YUCK!

"bing bing bing!".. That's Dr. Now's Bullshit detector going off.  At this point, I think this guy is a fake (ok, not really cause look at him) but, really?

Editing fuckery.

Oh God, ASPCA commercial😪

[TazDevil]

So Dr. Now wouldn't send him to more psychotherapy because Larry already did that with the first weight loss surgery??  Or does Dr. Now just know that Larry isn't serious and doesn't want to do the work?

Holy moly it's 2 degrees outside.

Sounds dangerous!  Did you know vampires were initially imagined with incisor fangs (basically, rodent-like teeth, which would be also more appropriate functionally)?  Only when they started to be glamorized their depictions switched to the more aesthetically appealing predator-like canine fangs.

This little dude would make an excellent vampire.

They don't pay the leasing agent nearly enough.

Okay, he is legally disabled and gets payments.  How does that work when he moves to Texas?

From watching the TV zoo shows, the Manatees are beautiful, lovely creatures, and fart like crazy.
