Hellga May 2 Share May 2 Just now, Pepper Mostly said: @Hellga, I saw Company a few weeks ago and you're right, it was disappointing. I don't think the update worked very well. It would have been funnier if they'd made Bobby gay, rather than making the character a woman. Hilariously, we were outside at intermission and chatting about the show, and a homeless guy who was panhandling outside said "you know, you're not the the first people who've said this show sucks!". Big laughs all around. To be fair, it didn't suck, but it was not as good as it could have been. Sorry it was a disappointment for you. I went to see Clue yesterday and I liked it a lot if you want to give that a try! It was more slapstick but it was actually funny and much shorter running time too! 1 1 Link to comment

I am seeing Lempicka on Broadway on Saturday (I will be visiting my friend in NYC for Easter). No other musicals in my immediate future but there is another Boston Ballet performance. I have very mixed experience with Boston Ballet (the dancers are good, but I can only describe the choreographer as 'rampant mediocrity') but I keep going... don't have much choice as far as dance theater here in Boston area. I miss regularly going to Joyce theater in NYC. 3 Link to comment

Hellga May 2 Share May 2 He looks so much smaller than her now! I can't believe it's not motivating to her, either to support his progress or hate it and want to outdo him. Unless she is consciously or subconsciously avoiding weight loss as a way to avoid, ahem, the physical side of their relationship. 2 1 Link to comment

I would think she'd be starving herself to avoid getting fatter than he is, since his obesity disgusts her so much 2 1 Link to comment

My friend wanted me to go and was going to pay for my ticket, but I flatly refused. Turns out, surprise! the food sucked and the venue was chintzy and cheap. True to form for my apathetic, uninspired, mediocre class. I'm still friends with all my besties from HS anyway. 2 2 Link to comment

CrazyInAlabama May 2 Share May 2 OK, I finally saw the episode numbers, and I think WATNs are Season 7, because the description on TLC's website says they are, and a TV listing for next week says episode 11. I suspect they've been filmed right after the original episode, and weren't shown for some reason. (I've been naughty today, I had some puffy Cheetos, but they're baked not fried). 1 May 2024-Nathan Proctor, and wife Amber from Palestine TX. He's a drama teacher, and she's a teacher. This was shot right after the end of the original episode, since the beginning of the recap says "1 Year Ago". His lymphedema looks horribly painful. Amber already failed at her own weight loss surgery. Amber actually gains after trying to qualify for her revision surgery, and Nathan loses but not as much as he's supposed to lose. They see Dr. Paradise, and he addresses the entire dynamic between them. Amber's weigh-in is much better, 44 lbs off. Dr. Now will have to gastric bypass. Nathan's relationship with his daughter Hannah has improved, since he's more mobile. He's trying to qualify for lymphedema surgery, and eventually skin removal. They show Nathan at the farmer's market trying to eat better, and local organic foods. Everything looks so good and fresh. Amber's not doing so well, and Dr. Now cancelled her revision surgery. Amber will have to be careful, if she does get full gastric bypass, and cheats, she'll end up with dumping syndrome, and that's serious. They're moving out of their house, and the new place cancelled on them, and they have nowhere to go, so she's eating. Nathan went back to work teaching (I guess), and Nathan has a second job waiting tables, and she's alone a lot. Her Wagyu steak looks so good. He's in the upped 300s, and she's in the mid 400's. Next weigh in 1 year 2 months, Nathan loses 34 lbs, to 379 lbs, (he's lost 230 lbs) and Amber is 458, a gain of 3 lbs. Dr. Now says he can do the lymphedema surgery, on the huge mass hanging from Nathan's abdomen, and Dr. Now say to lose another 100 lbs and he will do the last skin removal and Nathan should be at his goal weight. Amber is really struggling, and gaining a little. 1 1 Link to comment

Chicklet May 2 Share May 2 I'm sure the ice cream calls out to Amber and taunts her so that's stress right there. 1 2 Link to comment
