Sweet tap dancing Jesus. 

It's a special mirror.

Maybe a sling of sorts would help? I’m not even being funny that looks painful 

Or one of those scooters? 

[sainte-chapelle]

I blanked out but why is she living in a hotel? That is expensive..can’t she rent?

[Hellga]

I am glad Seana feels she is making good progress, but the way she talks about it - does she realize that she won't magically wake up being able to eat everything she wants after the surgery?  She will have to stick to a limited-calorie diet for the foreseeable future?

Did anyone see the TLC special called the man with the 30 pound scrotum? He had a walker/stroller thing where he put it so he could get around.

For the rest of her life. She is addicted to food and will need to be diligent until the day she died. Surgery doesn’t cure food addiction.

I have actually seen a magic mirror!  There are only about six Renaissance-era Venetian mirrors left in the world.  I encountered one in a little-visited castle, and the attendant lady told me it was magic and she would let me look in it if I wanted, since I've been the only visitor that day.  Of course I said yes.  And yes, it did magically erase all skin imperfections, made you look younger and fresher and prettier...  so maybe it could also do thinning?  I don't know, my BMI at the time was 19 so it didn't need to.  

[sainte-chapelle]

That clown car vagina lady is still on TV?

[lemoncake]

Seana those piercings are unfortunate looking with her face. We should be grateful she didn't choose tattoos

OMG where?!?! I love castles!

Wow, ambulance ride.  I hope they can remove the lymphedema off him soon!

He was loving it

Gotta say, Seana dresses well for her size. Better than JT, anyway 😆

Wolfsburg Castle in Wolfsburg, in Germany, not too far from Hanover.  A small but cute one, not one of my favorites, but it had the magic mirror.  And still very much worth a visit, of course, I love castles too.  Everyone else in my group (I was studying German in an intensive summer language program and we had a day trip to Wolfsburg) opted for the Jagermeister factory and/or Volkswagen museum, but I wanted the castle.

Who was it who cooed "I feel like Cleopatra!" when the hunky firefighters were hauling her out of her house? Penny? Pauline? One of them.

'Gonna be my best one yet' cut to 6lb loss,,?

[MsVixen]

What is that woman in the Fresh Pet commercial complaining about?  I've got a bag of the plant based meatless crumbles in my freezer that looks just like that package of dog food.

I really want her to succeed.  I want to see if there is a normal human face hiding behind that fat bloated mask.

That is the ultimate is being picky about men (or women) . I'd be impressed if someone i was dating was loving on his pets so much that he gave them the fancy food

[Hellga]

And she did!  56 pounds lost.  maybe she will turn around yet. 

[Pi237]

Woah I take it back, 56lbs down. Well done

[lemoncake]

Desk tacos work!!

[Hellga]

I wish they subtitled her.  She mumbles horribly, I could barely make out what she was saying, and half the time I couldn't.

I’m sorry I missed out. I was in Germany a couple months ago but it was more od a structured tour.

[CrazyInAlabama]

J.T. is progressing.  Hopefully that lymphedema is going to be removed soon.

Seana goes for her weight in, after 4 months she weighs 605 lbs at 1 year 4 months. SHe's approved for WLS in two months, and she hopes to be moving into some kind of group home hotel type of place.  Move can't happen until after surgery and recovery, so she can get a job, so she fills out another application for the halfway house.   

J.T. is down to 402 lbs.  His lymphedema apparently is infected.

Seana has an unfortunate resting face. She looks like a frowny  face emoji 

[sainte-chapelle]

Oh dear he has the unfortunate back fat bum thing going. That is tough to lose

We are planning 2 trips to Germany in the next couple of years. We want to do the Christmas markets  and take a river cruise also

I must say I tend to enjoy attractions off the beaten track more than the major draws that are featured on big tours.   Doesn't matter where it is.   I tend to prefer travelling on my own for a variety of reasons (though I gladly book myself on day trips for convenience to see some things that are too hard to access without a car - I only drive in the US and Canada, I am afraid to drive elsewhere, and public transportation sometimes would take too long to reach the places I would want to see).  In cities and towns, I usually just explore on my own to my heart's content.   LIke Neuschwannstein castle is pretty, but they rush you through it on a 45 minute tour.  Albrechtsburg has the same style of romantic frescoes, but you can take your time, it's not crowded, and the castle itself is authentically medielval, not newly constructed in the 19th century.

All I want to see is that lymphedema removal. It'll redeem this snoozer of a season.

The only thing she can think of to do is fill out an application for the halfway house? How about getting a job? Hahahaha, I kill me. 

Oh my god look at him!

[lemoncake]

Holy crap he looks so different 

[Hellga]

Wow, he definitely lost a lot of weight, and he looks so droopy in his top half (and still awfully misshapen in his bottom half).  I hope he is able to still get his lymphedema removed and continue to persist with weight loss.   I really feel for him. 

[MsVixen]

JT's face is certainly smaller!

[Pi237]

Hate to say it, but he's looking a bit methy.

[Red Bridey]

We have almost an hour left, how much more is there to say about these two? They are rather...low energy...and not very interesting.

He looks like he melted and all the melted fat went to his legs

I really liked the River cruise, it gave us a nice taster but hope to go back on our own as we also love the off the beaten track attractions. I admit I really enjoyed Marksburg castle and we loved Regensburg

JT has customer service skills, yet he's not a people person. Hmm ...

I thought the same thing. He doesn't look well. 

[sainte-chapelle]

JT did nothing but think about JT for years…needs to care for his mom? Please. He couldn’t even care for himself.

[Pi237]

No one who ever says they never get to think of themselves first, actually thinks of anyone but themselves.  That's wordy, but you know what I mean.
