She doesn't look like she has 10/10 pain at the moment. 

She's just hungry. Few pizzas should fix her right up.

Hello, all! I woke up to two inches of snow on the ground. I'm off Wednesdays so I just stayed home and got a few things done around the house. My eating habit tonight was tater tot casserole and a couple Lindt Lindor dark chocolate truffles.

I love Aldi. I'm so happy we have one around here now.

We don't have one here. Although my wife is super excited that we're getting Wegman's in the summer.

They must have a new editor, because 600 lbs of bullshit has been cut out.

Hi...trying hard to leave a phone conversation with a dear friend...I don't want to tell her I want to get away to watch Poundticipants with the Pounders, but I do.

Aldi culture is quite the thing. Reminds me of grocery shopping in Europe

[Pepper Mostly]

How long until their cute little rental house is a stinking cesspit like their old house? I mean, how can they clean it? 

Oh, they're giving themselves a little treat! I mean, they've been dieting for what, two whole weeks already?

[sainte-chapelle]

Baked goods are not on the diet

[mmecorday]

They all eat so much that they forgot to decorate the house.

Monica should just turn around and leave!

I get why someone might stay with their spouse even if they gain hundreds of pounds, develop a terrible depression and stop caring about hygiene or cleanliness, but why would someone walk into it already seeing how  bad it is???  Obviously not working since that wasn't an obstacle to just picking up and moving, terribly overweight, messy... WHAT is attractive about this man?  Was she so desperate to leave Columbus she was jumping at any chance to do so???

638 lb for her, 786 for him.

Not much snow here for me in CT, just miserably cold!

They were too thankful.

The potato chips they have are the best potato chips I have ever tasted. Of course, I don't really eat chips any more. If they're in the house I'll eat them. 

[babyhouseman]

All the oldies are returning tonight

[mk828]

Wow a Lola sighting! This one goes back.

We had insane weather this weekend.  4 inches of snow (on top of plenty already on the ground) followed by ice and then by rain and then it all froze solid so I can feel like a frigging elf because I barely sink into the snow and I am over 170lb at the moment.  I have solid inch thick layer of ice on my deck, some of it covered by snow, some of it not.  I put out food for the birds and bunnies and squirrels came to partake too.  I don't usually feed wildlife, I believe in natural selection, but this weather is just cruel. 

[Red Bridey]

I don't have an Aldi's anywhere nearby. I've heard a lot about it and would love to have an Aldi's Experience.

[lemoncake]

Same clothes, oy

I love Wegmans; that's my usual grocery store. I have a couple ShopRite gift cards so I'll have to go there (which is actually closer to my house but I like Wegmans better), but I'll save them for things I can't get at Wegmans. We got an Aldi in town a few years ago but I still haven't been there. They're also putting in a Lidl which I thought was supposed to open last Spring and still hasn't...

[HorrrGoodnight]

Do they wear the same outfit every way in?

ETA I promise I can spell, just using talk to type on my phone.

I recall a mention in the original episode that Monica (the girlfriend) was getting out of a bad situation.   Michael (Shantel's husband) and Monica (Carlton's girlfriend) both had jobs, which is a nice change for this show. 

My weather here in lower Alabama has been strange, with a snowstorm of 8" (4 times the previous record here), and then tomorrow night into Friday morning, lows in the mid 20's, really strange for here.

[sainte-chapelle]

Oh wow she did well!

[Red Bridey]

Looks like something connected and they exceeded their goals. On to WLS!

[Hellga]

Wow, I am impressed, they did work hard the second time around.  Hope they actually do well.  I am starved for a solid success story... but I am not optimistic here, having been burned too many times.

I cleaned 2 feet of snow off the deck & stairs so the chimney guy could reline the chimney. It still isn't finished.

[HorrrGoodnight]

This season was so dismal they had to throw in some vintage surgeries to satisfy us.

I was plenty fat at the start of COVID lockdown, and during lockdown I was eating those delicious Clancy's chips with a will. Imagine my chagrin when I was weighed at my annual checkup in the summer of 2020 and had put on twenty more pounds! That's what kick-started my weight loss. I'd still like to lose forty or so more but at least I don't look like a bureau with feet these days.

Feeling like an elf!!

I gave the squirrels some cheap bread. They threw it in the yard. Snobs.

When we have our Boston/Salem Pounder Con we can have an Aldi field trip! 

[OoogleEyes]

One benefit of getting older is that you can't eat as much.

[babyhouseman]

My parents enjoy Aldi's. You have to pay a quarter for a shopping cart.

I was going to ask you about that! You managed OK? I was worrying!

I love Wegmans but the closest one is about 12 miles away in the direction I don't normally go.  I usually do most of my shopping at the Price Chopper in my town or at Stop & Shop on my way home from the gym, but I visit Aldi and Trader Joe's every few weeks for some special stuff I usually get from them, and Wegmans every couple months to treat myself.  I checked out a new store I've never even heard of before, Big Y, this weekend and they had lovely French bread, still hot when I picked it up.  So lovely I had to restrict myself so I wouldn't eat half of it in one go with butter and honey.

[CrazyInAlabama]

Since Aldi bought Winn-Dixie, and we have two here, the rumor was we were getting an Aldi's.   But no word of that, and Aldi's sold Winn-Dixie, so we have to hope they put one in here.     I really want an Aldi's, since apparently the town is too small for a Costco.

You get your quarter back when you return the cart!

I got it  done, but the old chimney liner collapsed inside, so they have to come back and finish the job in "a week or so".

By then it will be 39°. Grrr.

I will take the Baylen ads over this any day of the week.

Omg i can see Dr Now in a giant operating room with 2 DaVinci robots operating on both of them at the same time. Young Frankenstein vibes indeed

[Pepper Mostly]

Wow, check out this professional T shirt operation! They must be making money hand over fist!

[Hellga]

He has really unfortunate butt wings.  But I am glad he has actual tangible goals, like making some money and taking his girlfriend out on a date...  that's usually a good sign when it's something concrete and not abstract like 'be healthy'.

What are we even watching?? People losing weight, wanting jobs? Is this even My 600 Pound Life?
