Okay, with just 10 minutes left, in case y'all don't return for next week, I need to say thanks. My Mom used to watch the show and we'd debrief on Thursdays as I drove to work.  She LOVED Dr. Now and

I had to resize this thing because it was huge.  Here is the new man!  He has abs and likes to give massages and compliments.

Okay, my daughter just made her first comment (to Abi): "You don't need to rest!  Your whole life is rest!"  She's a Pounder in training, folks!  I'm so proud.

I bought a couple bags (and a bag of Hershey eggs) before Easter and haven't even opened them. What's wrong with me?

I have a dedicated chocolate shelf in the snacking cupboard in my kitchen.  I probably have two varieties of truffles/bonbons and at least a dozen candy bars in it at any given time.  I don't eat a lot at a time, though.  When you buy chocolates that are upwards of $50/pound, that's an extra reason not to eat more than that 50 calorie square/piece they recommend.  I stock up at chocolate shows/expos or when I visit places where they have good artisanal chocolate shops... very rarely will I crave grocery store chocolate.  I do have two Lindt chocolate bunnies waiting for my Easter, though.  Gotta bite those ears off!

My weakness isn't candy or sweets. Its salty and carby. I can happily walk by a bowl of chocolate, but walking by a bowl of chips is a killer

I work with people who love to bring in snacks. There are always pretzels, crackers, chips, cheese, dips, donuts, cookies, etc. on the big table in the ad department. I rarely if ever snack at home because I don't stock my cabinets with snack foods. But when I'm at work, I just can't resist those salty temptations.

I am glad I am utterly resistant to manufactured potato chips.  I buy those single-serve multi-packs and usually I eat about one every two months and usually because I feel like eating something different and don't feel like cooking rather than because I want chips.  I am a sucker for homemade potato chips, though.  Kettle or baked, love them both.   I can probably polish off three good sized potatoes' worth in one sitting...   Good thing I am too lazy to make them more than once a month or so!  And my current work cafeteria doesn't make them.  At my old job, they were incredible.  But because I came late (I prefer to eat at 1pm or even 1:30pm rather than noon), I rarely got tempted by them as they were often sold out.

I love kettle chips. Love flavors like sea salt and vinegar. We were in Italy a couple of years ago and I found this fabulous brand of tomato flavored chips. Thankfully I haven't been able to find them in the US.

At my last job we had a Free Food channel on the staff Slack. We'd just trawl the halls, looking for leftover sandwiches and pizza. I used to grab all the extra bags of chips and pretzels for my boss, she was a snacker.

The head of one place I worked would bring in Dilly bars (Dairy Queen ice cream bar). Never heard of them until I started working there. Free ice cream!

Are there any success stories? We've been watching surgeries, but no follow-up. 

Is TLC a SCAM??

News at 11

Delana, Krystal S., and Abi were all successes, only William wasn't this season.   

You can tell the rookie nurses like the weigh-in lady, they don't get their feet far out of the trample zone. 

393!    I'm so thrilled for her, total loss 171!
