No, good for him.

Wow! Good job!

Good for him!

So my 23 year-old son is away for the week for Spring Break adventures with his friends and once he was gone, I realized I never learned how to work the dishwasher (which is about 5 years old).  He always does the dishes.  I had to text him yesterday to ask him how to work it.  How SAD is that??  

To be fair, there are a lot of buttons.

[Chicklet]

I guess I'm too used to people messing up. He might have surgery and acutally succeed.

[ams1001]

Beat his goal by 11 lbs!

[CrazyInAlabama]

Month 1 620

Month 3-566 down 54 lbs.

Month 5?-525 down 41 more pounds

If he passes his physical tests, and keeps losing, he's approved. 

Brother doesn't look like he weight 243.   Mom looks exactly like 225. 

So, Chris another one who thinks he can do it all by himself.

525.  He actually exceeded his goal... and lost almost 100 pounds now.  Still not sure he has it in him to go long-term, but becuase he actually had a concrete life goal, not just 'lose weight' maybe he will succeed.  I just attended a 'managing change' webinar pep talk at work this morning, yeah. 

[Auntie Anxiety]

I’m having trouble reacting to posts. But I am enjoying them nonetheless.

[Lima Bean]

How old is Mom, 53?

Wow, you are brave, I'd never cop to that. I'd just do them by hand and deny everything. 

[sainte-chapelle]

Lol I quickly glanced at the TV and thought mom’s ponytail was the cat 🐈‍⬛ 

[Hellga]

Mom's gotta be over 200 lb herself.  The brother looks pretty normal, not slim, but normal.

The cat and the room chicken might not get along well.

[babyhouseman]

The mother looks like kind of an older Ellie Mae Clampett.

[Lima Bean]

This show is only fun when Dr Now is snarky and mean, and the poundicipant is a crazy failure.

Dead.

[sainte-chapelle]

I don’t think the brother needs to lose much weight

I might look for the instructions online.

[Pepper Mostly]

Cat could be like my houseguest's cat, who is very shy and timid. He'll hang out (now) if there are people he knows here, but any whiff of a stranger and he's off like a shot, hiding out.

I am the dishwasher in this house. There are only two of us in the house so I wash everything by hand. At my mother's house we had this unspoken rule that if you used a cup or a plate, then you washed it yourself. My girlfriend thinks she does enough around the house and shouldn't have to wash her own dishes. 😒

[Hellga]

Mom is 225.  DOn't know her height, but a lot shorter than her sons.  

Brother is 243.  So not healthy, but not horrible either.

[poeticlicensed]

Brave mom for being weighed on tv

[Kid]

The brother does not look that big - 243.

Edited March 16, 2023 by Kid

[poeticlicensed]

The fact that they are going to do it as a family is a positive and you rarely see that on this show

[Chicklet]

Oh no another one who refuses surgery.

[ams1001]

Another "I don't need surgery after all"?

[charmed1]

Walk in the park!

Mom’s hoping to get paid with her own show.

[WonTon]

Uh oh!

[Pi237]

Here's where he goes off the rails 

[Hellga]

Waaaah.  Another one 'I will do it my own way'.  I think we will see him stall or gain before the end of the show. 

[aliya]

Oh for cryin' out loud.

Oh he's a sweet boy.  He is very patient with me!  Actually, I've never heard him make fun of another person in my life.  Maybe subtle digs at his little brother here and there...

[Auntie Anxiety]

Good luck, Chris. Whatever floats your boat.

And he ain't no Frank Sinatra.

Oh no another one who feels he doesn’t need surgery

This must be the theme of the season. 

[ams1001]

BTW, I have ice cream.

My dishwasher broke a few years back. I called my repair guy, who is a good honest guy. He told me he could fix it but it would cost $300 and it wasn't worth it. He said that the model I had was prone to this dumb electrical problem. He said to look around for a good deal or a rebate and just buy a new one. I love that guy. We still haven't bothered to buy one. 

[babyhouseman]

They're wasting Dr. Now's time. Just go there, get weighed in, and the plain looking nurse can give you the book.

[poeticlicensed]

Read the literature dude. At that weight, without bariatric surgery, your chance of getting to a normal weight and maintaining it is nearly zero.

I have Talenti gelato, peanut butter ice cream with a fudge/chocolate chip layer and then another layer of ice cream and then a bottom layer of peanut butter cookie bits.

They did get the diet.

He might be the one that succeeds 

[DropTheSoap]

He should get a place with poolboy from a couple weeks ago. They could tell each other how they're both going to show Dr. Now.
