My 20's and 30's were my Primetime, even though I did have babies. 

Me (Iin white) with my sister (in red) and our babies, 1988. I'm 34.

Ok I was wrong about her. Now I feel like a terrible human for snarking about her. 

Don't blame yourself--it's what we've learned to expect from this show.

On the fashion side,  I love the 70s.  I wasn't even born until early 80s, but how can you not love bell bottoms?  I am so glad they made a couple comebacks so I could flaunt them!  They are so incredibly cool with high heels.   

I graduated high school in 1972. I still have the jeans I wore back then, stashed away somewhere. The fashion in my town was to steal a pair of your boyfriend's jeans and take them in at the inseam. That made them hip huggers and really tight. Then you just wore them and wore them and patched them with colorful scraps. Mine are patched from waist to knee.

I'm not seeing a debate here. Diabetes and lactose intolerance be damned. That's what Big Pharma is for!

Well, I'm not lactose intolerant and the doctor's office called on Friday with my blood results and said my blood sugar and everything were normal.

Rose’s breasts look like sandbags 

There's a older lady in my book club whose breasts look like sand bags.  She uses a walker and is hunched over.  Has long gray hair. I so want to gift her some bras, anonymously.

I wore designer jeans with heels in the 80s. It was a thing. But jeans had no stretch so you had to lay down to get them zipped. Lol

[Auntie Anxiety]

She “slipped” on her diet. Dr. Now is going to come in hot.

[Hellga]

Here we go, slipped on my diet...  did she gain or did she merely fail to lose?

[mk828]

I sense a its the scale's fault coming along..

I hope that her hair doesn't weigh too much

 

[ams1001]

Lost 5 pounds. Doc not gon' be happy.

[Hellga]

5 lb loss.  At least she didn't gain.  Probably remembered to eat better in the last week before appointment or something.  

[Auntie Anxiety]

Five pounds. FIVE POUNDS? Looks like Rose is going to be eating some dog shit after all.

[CrazyInAlabama]

Month 1-564

Month 3-497, down 67 lbs

Month 5-492, still down 5 more lbs. 

Houston is expensive compared to where she lives.   At least she's not making excuses, or blaming the scale.  New goal 50 lbs in two months, and move to Houston for surgery.

[MsVixen]

Got to give it to Rose.  She takes responsibility!  

[ams1001]

At least she's not making excuses...?

[Chicklet]

"A" slipup??

[crazycatlady58]

But she is taking responsibility for what happened.

[Auntie Anxiety]

She must have cheated every day. That’s not a slip up.

[Hellga]

I had a slip up it means I cheated once.  Maybe twice.  But to not really lose, she ate pretty much every night...

[mmecorday]

She was dippin' in their sweet buckets? What the hell does that mean?

Mr Lemon and I on our honeymoon circa 1982

My first thought was "uh oh, were they arrested?" And then I saw the Norwegian Cruise Line thing at the bottom.  Heh

 

[Pi237]

Really, it should be no surprise most gain or stay the same after a loss. EVERYONE knows its not losing that's hard, it's keeping it off. Hence, the need for surgery or medical intervention.  Always annoys me when he asks What happened?!  Duh. What always happens and that's why they're 600lbs. 

[mk828]

Aww.. She is so sweet

The kids have buckets of candies and Zebra cakes awaiting them upon their return from school?

Lol. Mr Lemon thought he was  Al Pacino in Serpico. His brother looked exactly like Saturday Night Fever  John Travolta. My sister had a huge crush on him.

Sounds like they had candy for the kids after school.

[aliya]

They've got a sweets bucket?? 😲  Can I get one of those?

[ams1001]

Russell's in her phone as "My Love 2"?

A single cheat doesn't make a bit of difference in a month. A slip up sounds like rolling down that keto hill of one dinner roll leading to three weeks of ice cream sandwiches piled on waffles. Oh, have I been there.

Apparently they have candy for the grandkids when they visit, not a good situation.   Isn't that Cassandra?

I think he wants to see where their heads are at, whether or not they’ll take responsibility for their behavior.

[lemoncake]

Sweet bucket sounds dangerous

[mk828]

Does it say "My Love 2" on he phone? I thought he was hubby #3?

1. Get a bucket

2. Fill it with candy.

Easy peasy!

Our house was burglarized in 1978. The thieves (two young girls, it turned out) took my jewelry and one pair of GV jeans. 

[mk828]

Ok those grandkids are making me want to lose weight! They are so sweet!

I loved that look but through most of the 80s I was over 30 and felt that was a style for a younger woman! 

Here is my hilarious designer jeans anecdote: Designer jeans were just getting to be a thing in the late 70s/early 80s. I was bartending in those days, in a fun bar in the Faneuil Hall are in Boston. One cocktail hour some friends stopped by, they were on their way to check out a new spot that had just opened in the neighborhood. Minutes later, they were back. "Wait, what happened? You didn't stay?" "They wouldn't let us in. They only let you in in jeans if they're designer jeans!" Which led me to ponder who might have the unenviable job of checking the asses of potential patrons for designer labels. And made me resolve to never patronize that establishment.

Who counts lol. Just another husband.

And he didn't approve her, it was conditional, did she forget that?

[CrazyInAlabama]

The whole family have good attitudes.   

[Suzywriter]

This family has a terrible dearth of shapewear.

When I was little, I had a toy fridge (maybe a foot tall by half a foot wide and deep?) and I filled it up with secret stash of candy during holidays and kept it in the back of the closet for my emergency supply.  Maybe her grandkids have something like that going?

Reminds me of the SNL Dick in a Box. 1. Get a box. 2. Put a hole in the box. 3. Put your junk in the box
