You could put flowered collars on the goats and have them be attendants!

Just a suggestion of course, they would eat the flowers.

I've hearded goats when I was young, my Grandma had goats.  They will absolutely eat flowers.  And no goat ever does anything except what she wants to do.  Training them to stand still or go only to specific places... yeah right.   They are adorable, but don't mix them with a party unless you want pure chaos.

That sounds amazing!

Oh it was. Mr Lemon still talks about and it was over 20 years ago. They stole picnic tables from a public park. They told everyone there would be signs on the main road say where to turn. The sign said WEDING. I kid you not. And there were rabbits.

I am getting married in October. Was thinking about doing it in my brother's backyard, he has pet goats. My fiancée just said, look we could had tractor too. 

Goats are over. Its alpacas now. Get with the program. 

(Seriously, congratulations!!)

They seem happy, 99 percent of the relationships we see on this show are toxic or abusive in one way or another.

I feel like TLC is lulling us into a false sense of security. The first episode of the new season is hopeful and uplifting, but as usual, the season goes downhill at some point.

This story just keeps getting better and better...

[Hellga]

Sleeping in a greenhouse?   That's a first!  Hope this didn't affect her eating.  

[Chicklet]

Oh dear living in a greenhouse. I hope winter isn't coming soon.

[Snarkastikate]

Uh oh ....

[magemaud]

I was afraid she was announcing her pregnancy 

[lemoncake]

Wait they are living in a greenhouse? Does Damien have a job thingy?

It's a greenhouse. I can't imagine how miserable that is.

What can be more fun on a wedding day than being spat on by an animal that can spit really far and whose spit is really icky!

This is the most amazing thing I have read in my life

[ams1001]

Living in a "greenhouse" in a friend's backyard that looks like a small tornado blew through...wow.

You know, Damien's not a bad-looking guy if he'd get his teeth fixed.

[Chicklet]

A bigass tv in a greenhouse. Interesting.

[Auntie Anxiety]

I can’t remember the last time the poundicipant was moving and there wasn’t a fight amongst family members.

[Pepper Mostly]

Gotta hand it to Damian, he's a cheery fellow.

It’s not even glass. Just plastic on a frame. 

[mk828]

Gotta say, she is on of the more likable poundticipants in a while. 

[lemoncake]

I'm so sad to leave my greenhouse home. Something I'd never thought I'd see

My great-grandmother was that way.  Never complained, even though she was orphaned young (father died when she was 2, mother than she was 3), raised by hr brother who didn't let her go to school after one year, married off at 16 to a man twice her age,  half of her nine children died in childhood, she survived two world wars, imprisonment, loss of everything she owned... never complained.  Always said 'it's all in God's hands'.  Whenever I think I have problems, I think back to her and I know I have no actual problems.

I would have gotten married barefoot if I could have. I hate having anything on my feet. 

Two stories:

When she was a teen, my sister was outside on the sidewalk in her bare feet. Our stepfather came home and went berserk. He grew up very poor and was barefoot in Miami a lot of the time. He didn't want people to think we were too poor for my sister to have shoes.

Years ago, I went to an academic conference. All of us doctoral students were hanging out and the conversation turned to shoes and needing to find our 'good' shoes for the conference. Then one woman said that she was from Hawaii - she had to find shoes.

At least its not a trunk stuffed with salty snacks, or a cooler full of sodas.

A greenhouse in Texas would be fucking hot 

[Auntie Anxiety]

She got out of the truck pretty quickly. She’s losing the weight.

Is Damien a little slow or does he have issues? Its a little weird

I think it was in Idaho? But still, point taken...

But didn’t she walk in last time or am I wrong?

[Pepper Mostly]

Only half an hour left. Have to squeeze in surgery, recovery, and walk in the park while she voiceovers about her "journey" and how excited she is to see what the future holds. 

[Auntie Anxiety]

@magemaud, I’ve been looking for the Russell Stover jelly beans to no avail. I actually think they were discontinued. 😭

Not a single fight, not one crying jag, no self pity, woe is me or blaming others.  Please be successful, Krystal.

Oh believe me,it was an eye opener to this suburban girl from Connecticut. Since moving to Florida 35 years ago, I've seen and learned a lot. 

[sainte-chapelle]

Do you all think she lost or gained? I predict some stress eating

[Auntie Anxiety]

Yes.

[Chicklet]

I don't think she lost, she looks the same. And where is the other daughter?

[Hellga]

She definitely didn't lose another 100 lb.  But maybe she is under 600.  As in 595? 

[Auntie Anxiety]

Oops. That wasn’t 100 pounds.

[CrazyInAlabama]

I think she stayed in the wheelchair because it was starting to rain, and being wheeled in is much faster. 

Current weight: 608 lbs. only 11 more lbs.   I'm devastated.  It's a total of 83 lbs, but still not good.  

Apparently the Stover Jelly Beans are discontinued.   I did read that they produced bags that  are half the size of the usual ones with the remaining stock.

Yea this isn’t good
