Season 11 M600LL and Season 8 WATN LIVE CHAT

[DropTheSoap]

He's hangry.

[Auntie Anxiety]

I always guess too high. I’ll say 575.

[Chicklet]

He needs a shovel and not a fork. Watching him eat is just ugly.

[Hellga]

Prefers to eat alone?  Doesn't like sharing, I presume?

And if he eats until the food is gone - how about asking Dad to buy smaller amounts?  That way you have external control of your addiction...  kind of like beign in the hospital on restricted diet in a light form. 

[magemaud]

I find him likable, so far

Oh, he's about to faint from hunger! Dad better get a wiggle on. 

He's on his way back from the Piggly Wiggly

[katycat74]

Dad referred to the fridge as the "icebox". Haven't heard it called that since my grandmother lol

[Hellga]

And that was another takeout meal.  Were any groceries he bought actual cooking ingredients, or just snacks?  

[Auntie Anxiety]

The eating scenes are making me a little nauseated.

At least he's dressed for the moment.

Yep. My grandmother called her fridge an ice box until the day she died. 

[MsVixen]

Good evening Pounders!!!

Wess seems literate, at least.

Anyone know what's happening that we are here instead of the Live forum?

[CrazyInAlabama]

Wess Schulze 36 years old from Danevang, TX Southwest of Houston, about an hour away from Dr. Now’s office.

His father was a great cook, his parents divorced at 3, and his mother lost custody.  His 7 -year-older sister took care of him.  Molested by a relative.  Weight kept people away from him.   At 13 he was caught online flirting, so he had to come out to his dad, and he was rejected.       345 by freshman year in high school.     I’m glad drama gave him joy, but not glad he got into partying in junior college.   He got an office job in Houston, but lost everything and at 33 had to move back in with his parents.  With internet he found a work from home, and was able to move out.   His dad Rick takes him to the store, because he can’t drive.  He can’t even stand and walk at the little grocery store.  

His family doesn’t talk about food addiction.  He’s also a stress eater.

My question is why they don’t put decent grab bars in all showers and tubs?  

With the stomach added in, I bet he's over 700.    (any idea why live chat isn't open, or a Wess episode isn't up?)   

[judylo]

Okay, I’ll guess 612. But the lymphedema alone is 40 lbs!

[Suzywriter]

Hey all!Why are we hiding in small talk?

I think I might start calling my fridge the icebox. And I call jeans dungarees because it amuses my sons.

[poeticlicensed]

Naked burrito earing was one of the most nauseating things I've ever seen.

Someone lost the keys to the live chat, I'm guessing.

Maybe the mods are in mourning for Steven Assanti

We're locked out of live chat and in withdrawl. (Okay, that last part might be just me.)

Is there something that we who were born in the 50's and 60's still call something that the kids today don't?

Dad probably only bought chips, cookies and frozen pizzas, if Wessssss can stagger over to the stove long enough to shove one inside. 

The only things we ever see anyone cook are sad, overcooked skinless chicken or  fish, and canned vegetables. 

Oh, how was everyone's eating habit? Me, salad of course, with some steak that my son brought home from his restaurant (not his but he works there). Yum. 

But I baked white chocolate/cherry blondies again, holy shit those things are HEAVENLY.

I was wondering about that myself.  BTW, long time lurker, first time poster.  Hello!

[OoogleEyes]

Damn. It looks like I need to catch up on 90 Day!

[Chicklet]

Ohh I made the best gluten free peanut butter cookies. Low carb, then tossed chocolate ganache on top so it kinda blew the low carb part but damn good.

There is no confirmation about Steven being gone, and the announcement online disappeared.

They sound yummy!  Is cheery supposed to be cherry?

[poeticlicensed]

We had a food truck that served lobster rolls in my community tonight. Omg I haven't had lobster in forever. So good

[Suzywriter]

Wess seems to be a bit of a snowflake.

"Naked eating" might need a Bingo square.

Welcome to Pounderland!

[DropTheSoap]

They haven't used the "I've learned about a surgeon near me" line for several seasons. As if it's a surprise to the viewer that the surgeon is Dr. Now.

I'm having a sneezing attack.

Dad seems like a nice guy, well intentioned but so misguided about Wess

Welcome!

 

At least Wess is not nasty and whiney (yet).  Maybe he will be a success.  I am guessing 644 for him.

[nokat]

This is my favorite on Wednesdays.

[MsVixen]

I must be getting jaded as Wess doesn't look that big to me!

[Hellga]

They made the hourlong drive without any food stops.  That might be encouraging! 

[poeticlicensed]

655 is my guess

Yes, that's why the Steven and Justin thread is at the top of the topics on page 1.  I won't believe it until there is more confirmation from an account that isn't his. 

Danevang is only a little over an hour from Houston, so we'll be seeing a lot of traveling. 

Weight 705.   Month 1 The leg lymphedemas, and stomach must add 100 lbs total. 

Edited February 16, 2023 by CrazyInAlabama

[Chicklet]

See I guess low and it's way higher. I cannot win here.

[Auntie Anxiety]

Wess is industrial strength jumbo size.
