Season 11 M600LL and Season 8 WATN LIVE CHAT

[mmecorday]

I have never felt the urge to go to Ikea. But I could live at Target. The closest one is 45 minutes away from where I live and for that I am grateful. I would be broke if one existed in my town. 

[Hellga]

Wow.  He exceeded his goal, even.  477 lb.   A third down from where he started!

[CrazyInAlabama]

531 two months ago.  Month 10 down to 477!   Outstanding effort between Wess, his dad, Dr. Paradise, and Dr. Now.

Now I want to go to IKEA.

I so love that store!

 

[MsVixen]

I don't believe it?  477 and he still looks the same!!!  More than 200 pounds lost and he doesn't seem to be any smaller!!

We need to know more about the new nurse. I want the back story.

Maybe she’s the new Mrs Now

The nearest Ikea is probably at least an hour away from me. But I have Target 10 minutes away.

I have 5 Targets within 10 miles, 10 Targets within 20 miles, but we're home for Target.

[Hellga]

So, park scene, beach scene or something original to wrap up the episode?  Make your bets now!

Dad needs to salt his food because he doesn’t know how to react. I feel sad for him.

It's a habit

I wish he'd get real shoes so I don't have to see his toenails...

Flip flops are popular in the south and easier to put on.,

[charmed1]

We’ve got five minutes left. Shall we go to the park or shop of ugly plus sized clothing ?

He probably couldn't tie his shoes if he had to.

Yeah, there are a few others I'm willing to drive to if necessary. Also Walmart but i don't go there.

[CrazyInAlabama]

I'm so glad he'll get the lymphedemas off, it will be rough recovery, but it will be so worth it.   

It's hours to an IKEA for me, but target is 10 minutes away, and they have such a great food section now.

He still has that big testicle bagging out of his shorts.

Completely accurate. Go in to get a cheap picture frame, come out having reached your steps goal in an hour. That is after having to maneuver around a family of five plus their in-laws taking a casual stroll through the kitchen towel section.

Oh yeah, its crazy but I love it. Its so huge you can't get a cellphone signal. (We're always texting each other "where are you?" because we usually have a mob and get separated). It requires commitment and stamina. But I'm prepared because I grocery shop at Market Basket, which is a full contact sport. 

[ams1001]

Ooh, a theater trip! That is different!

Does the theater always have that giant camp chair or did they set that up just for him?

[Pepper Mostly]

I bet he's going to join an improv group.

[Auntie Anxiety]

Wess has found his people.

I don't do Walmart either.

[sainte-chapelle]

Did he bring his own chair? That is a sad looking community theatre

[katycat74]

Ooh, I love Market Basket! But you're right its always a complete zoo. Can't beat the prices tho.

[magemaud]

With my luck, I’d be stuck behind Wess and that giant chair

A play!  Something different, for a change.  Well, happy to have spent these two hours with you guys.  See you next week, hopefully in our proper thread!

I LOVE Target, but have to stay away from them as I can't be trusted not to buy buy buy.  There are two of them within two miles of where I live.

[mmecorday]

Night, all! Have a great rest of the week!

[Chicklet]

Night everyone, hopefully we aren't relocated next week!

[babyhouseman]

It's been good. See you next week.

[MsVixen]

Good night Pounders!  Are any of you watching 1000 Pound Best Friends?

You must introduce us to The Houseguest. They sound like a lot of fun 

She is absolutely great, I adore her. She's my son's friend originally, from culinary school, so going back 10 years now. But she's my friend too, now, and I have had SO MUCH FUN since she's been here. 

[sainte-chapelle]

Good night all. I might lurk in the fat friends forum

I think we went over the "2 ounces of commenting allowed" limit... hope we don't get yelled at.

God, no. Have fun!

Never did make my milkshake. Maybe I'll do some herbal tea before I go to bed. Good night, all!

See you all next week.  Thanks for the warm welcome!  💚

[Auntie Anxiety]

Well, for “small talk,” that wasn’t so small. Have a good evening, everyone.

[sagittarius sue]

I feel Princess P's work duties prevent her from moderating us.  I know last year she mentioned that she was trying to work as well as follow the show.  I really miss her on the forum.

I usually catch it on demand later.  It's a bit much after 2 hours of 600PL.

Probably not 

The question I have is who cuts his toenails?  He couldn’t fit in a pedi chair.

The way to handle Target is order what you need for pick or drive-up, and it's usually ready in 2 hours.  That's how I handle most of my shopping, but of course there has to be occasions for browsing in person.  My local Target isn't a SuperTarget so if I want to indulge in those yummy blueberry-white chocolate mini scones or raspberry jam filled shortbread I have to go with SuperTarget.

I didn't know there was such a thing as a SuperTarget. I almost get lost in my local one.  Where do I check out?

I know, my local is plenty large enough, but Super Targets are larger, and have a larger grocery, bakery, and deli area.  If you go to their website, find your local store, and then you can determine if you can pick up/drive up for items.  My smaller store has just one entrance, and the pickup desk is right by the returns desk They offer delivery if it can't be picked up.

I get a couple medicines there. Then I'll be looking at clothes.

Good evening, Pounders!  ! I forgot all about the show and you guys last week.  I hope everyone is well.

Hola peeps! Eating habit was noodle soup and some mini Triscuits. Dessert will be Häagen-Dazs vanilla chocolate chip ice cream (Wegmans has been out the past couple weeks and finally restocked, so I stocked up).

[sagittarius sue]

Greetings Pounders from snowy MN!  Stay warm everyone.

[Chicklet]

Yay we are back where we belong!

I ate too much today but ask me if I care. I did not eat anything bigger than my head so there's that.

[sainte-chapelle]

Evening all, I had some Turkey chili and popcorn with butter for dessert
