"I barely hit 1200 calories a day"

Well, they hit you. 

And come back repeatedly to kick her while she is down! 

[Suzywriter]

Where is @Pepper Mostly? Did she send in a notarized excuse?

[MsVixen]

People, where the hell is Pepper Mostly?  She's missing out on some quality snark!

I can’t imagine that she found something more productive to do than watching this show!

[Snarkastikate]

Yeah this isn't going well. Something's off here & it's not just the change in there usual background music.n Dr Now is not giving enabler hubby enough shit for his part in the household eating dysfunction.  Where's the usual input from other family members?

Her van broke down on the way here...

[Chicklet]

Oh no, moving day. This will fix that weight gain, I am sure!.

[MagicEyes]

He is just not very realistic, is he? No, she can't help pack the moving truck. 

[Suzywriter]

For your entertainment, there is a woman in my Divorced Women Over 50 group who keeps writing letters berating her ex, and having them notarized. She thinks that having them notarized means that everything she wrote is true .

[ams1001]

Did Dr. Now tell her to move to Houston? 

I envision him saying, "What'd you do that for?"

What city are they in? I like the show, but don't watch much TV anymore and never know when it's on.

Milwaukee…which is…interesting? 

[Auntie Anxiety]

She didn’t seem too upset about not being able to help with the move, if you ask me. 

[ams1001]

Uh oh, Mom's not feeling good...

[Auntie Anxiety]

Mom is bowing out. Which is so unlike her, since she’d been such a reliable mother in the past.

In his mind's eye, she is still the 400-lb woman that he married.  His beautiful bride forever!

Greensomething Tennessee. Greenville?

Is there a big food scene in Greenville, TN?

[mmecorday]

Her mom looks like the lady in the Kayak commercial who becomes a human scarecrow. Because times are not scary enough right now. 

[ams1001]

Mom is not suggesting Delana drive a giant truck, is she?

[MsVixen]

Did they ask Mom to help?  What is with this scene?

"I'm there for you." Except for right now when you need me.

This is the funniest thing I have heard all week. Thank you!  Quality entertainment!

[Chicklet]

So the mother that kidnapped you is just now a disappointment? That makes sense.

[Suzywriter]

There are some alarming sweat stains on that couch.

[Hellga]

Travel is not going well for them.

I gotta switch over to the Top Chef premier. I don’t have high hopes for Delana.

I have made the decision to watch Dr. Now and Company, and watch Top Chef on the On Demand from the cable company.  

Two weeks after the weigh in, they're moving to Houston.  Myra is wearing some kind of leg brace, so she's not in great shape either.  They get the van back, and it's not working, so they'll get a rental.   Sharon, will drive the U-Haul, and now she's bailing as always.   Delana made a big mistake letting her mother back in her life again.     The mother never intended to help.  

So, brother Danny will now drive the U-Haul truck.   That's the brother that Delana's daughter lives with.   At least someone in the family is helping.

I cannot even tell you how much I love this.

There's a Wendy's, Chick-Fil-A, Cookout, Burger King, and McDonald's!

[Auntie Anxiety]

They should just hire someone to drive.

That would make too much sense!

[ams1001]

She has a granddaughter? And her daughter's only 19?

[LizzyB]

Something is very off about the fact that she doesn't see/have a relationship with her children.  I feel like we are missing some BIG INFO!!

[Hellga]

The reunion with the daughter should be interesting.  And I am curious if the daughter took after her. 

[Minivanessa]

Her bro is gonna drive the truck. And her daugher's coming along. Bringing the granddaughter Delana's never met.

Ooh. Add family dynamics. And stir the pot. . .

When I do indulge in fast food, I love a cheeseburger from Cookout. Their barbecue sandwiches are good too. 

[MsVixen]

Guys, doing my Income Taxes or watching Ear Wax removal videos seem a hell of lot more fun right now.....

Their rental mobile home has a plywood floor.  No way they could afford a hired driver. But on a positive note, dude is a working man & damn I respect that.

My Aunt Pat was a grandmother at 33.

I get an occasional fried chicken sandwich from Popeye’s. Once or twice a year.

[CrazyInAlabama]

We're 1 hour and 20 minutes in, that's a really bad sign.   

An ED commerical, where's the barf emoji when you need one?  And the Ro ad is not a good idea for this show.  

Greeneville, TN is so lovely.

At least doing your taxes might net some money back?

Those are good! I have to leave off the pickles though.

Right? They had an "argument" when her daughter was 12 and they have no relationship?

That baby is adorable. 

[aliya]

I think we got our messages crossed. While I'm sure Greenville, TN has some exciting dining establishments, I wondered what city Top Chef was in this year.

She said earlier that at 12 the daughter "moved in with her brother".  Um...how does a 12 year old make that decision, and why did brother allow it??

[Auntie Anxiety]

Family patterns. Doomed to a lifetime of misery.

[Hellga]

The daughter seems like she has very much the same face.  The almost Habsburg jaw included.  Sounds like she is struggling with eating disorders but at least she looks like her weight is normal, so she is working hard.  Good for her.

Exactly. 

I'm wondering if there was a social worker and a judge involved...
