Only four eggs? 

[sainte-chapelle]

This guy is already shitting on his caregivers, he sounds like a delight

[Chicklet]

Mom needs to back off and hand him some scrambled eggs and call it a day. Yikes.

[OoogleEyes]

Only four eggs? Lightweight 

[HorrrGoodnight]

Y'all! I've been trying to make it over here for weeks but I just couldn't get the rhythm right but now I know it's wash rinse wash rinse dry so I'm good.

[mk828]

Howdy Y'all! A few minutes late to the party! Hope we get some quality snark tonight!

Hi. I got some Southern snow, something we don't get much. I'm eating snow cream, bad for the diet.

I'm in lower Alabama, and I bet we had 8" of snow.   And it's in the teens at night.  Going to hit the 60's next week though.   Very odd, it was supposed to be trash day today, but last evening after they postponed it I dragged the trash can into the cold garage, and everything melted.   The driveways and sidewalks melted by 10 or so, and the streets are clear.  Quite a contrast to Tuesday's snow everywhere.   Panama City Beach had 8 inches too, and everything there is still covered in snow.  

Gary, S13.E04, 1/22/2025.  Age: 32, from Oakland, CA.  He's the only overweight person in his family, always was overweight.   Bedbound.  Gary went to stay with his older brother, and his wife, after he dropped out of school.  He's a songwriter, and musician, and Anthony found him a producer, and Gary was supposed to go to NYC and make music, but couldn't fit on the plane.   He then started using Crystal Meth.   

That breakfast is two full plates of everything incluing iced sugar cookies with sprinkles.   

He hit over 600 lbs, and is bed bound.   When his mother goes to the grocery store he tells her what to get, cupcakes, ice cream, and everything not on Dr. Now's diet.   His mother fixes atwo giant plates of chicken, cookies Mac and cheese, and bixcuits, thousands of calories.

Shoveling that food into his mouth is making me a little nauseated.

[mk828]

That up body camera angle.. Never fails! 

[Hellga]

Hi all!  This one is a living blob.  I feel for his poor caregiver having to wash this mound of folded flesh...

Eating habit today is a chili, with biscuits and avocado.  The chili was not a success, but I had too many changes - I decided to try bell pepper (in addition to jalapeno, I just wanted to see what happens) and a different type of tomato. Oh well, still OK, just not great.  Biscuits so the oven warms up my first floor a bit, it's 67 upstairs but 64 here in the living room...

I am, but do we talk here or on the episode thread?

This is the place, pull up a chair!

Cheerful mother: Are you ready for breakfast? 

Gary: I am GASPING for it! Get in there and cook some eggs! And bacon. And sausage. And biscuits. And waffles. And toast. And hash browns. 

[Chicklet]

I mean last week's person had 3 plates or was that the week before.

[MagicEyes]

I thought I ate too much today, but really it wouldn't even add up to one meal for these people. Maybe just a large snack. 

[Red Bridey]

He's 32 and weight unknown. My eating habit was a slice of pizza at 3:30 and I can't move to the kitchen because of the Best Cat in the World who is sleeping very heavily on my lap. Eventually I will have some chicken pie and some kind of green vegetables, but who knows when?

I ate a huge meaty 3 egg omelette once, in my defence I was on vacation but walking around for over 6 hours a day

[Hellga]

His Mom is actually slim, surprisingly... and breakfast looked good.  If only he ate 1/4 of the portion! 

[mmecorday]

Hello! I had leftover spaghetti from last night and repurposed it to make a pizza casserole. Definitely not on de diet, but so good!

I'm in CT, 45 mins outside of NYC. You got more snow than we have had all winter!! Heck, I don't remember the past couple of winters getting storms above a few inches. This teacher needs a snow day! We have not even had 1 or even a delay yet!

[Auntie Anxiety]

Songwriting. Okay. 

[HorrrGoodnight]

Bay Bee that McDonald's tray on the stomach apex is something else

Where is he from?  Did they show the city or the town?  I even rewinded but didn't see it.  Must be big enough town for a big-gish apartment building like that... 

[Auntie Anxiety]

Aren’t meth addicts skinny? 

[ams1001]

Rapper/musician, used to hang with celebrities (I wonder who...would I actually know them?), crystal meth...

[mmecorday]

Ooh, an aspiring hip hop artist! I wonder if he knows Usman? 

[Chicklet]

Wait, meth and he didn't lose weight? Interesting.

Do I spy yogurt on that tray??

[HorrrGoodnight]

Wow did he actually gain weight on Meth?

[mk828]

Oh boy meth and fast food! What a mix!

[lemoncake]

Ugh those overly sweet cookies are so gross

Oakland, CA

[sainte-chapelle]

Meth?! No meth is the worst

[mmecorday]

I'm guessing his stage name was Heavy G. 

[Red Bridey]

Looks like the perfect Intervention/My 600 lb crossover episode!

[Hellga]

So he is a multi-addict... food AND drugs.

That's what I thought. But David Cosby was a plump cocaine addict, so who knows? 

[lemoncake]

Please no zoom visits with Dr Now

[sainte-chapelle]

Everyone wants to be a rapper. The video looked cheap, I doubt he was hanging with celebrities

Thanks!  How are they going to get him to Houston?  Are we going to have another episode of video calls and 'do it my way'?

I'm in NJ, we got maybe four inches or so on Sunday. Now it's just super cold and I have to watch for ice. Yesterday I came home to my heat being off (it was 60 degrees inside) but luckily my thermostat just needed new batteries.

Vanilla cupcakes only, mom!

Grocery shops every other day..!

[Auntie Anxiety]

The cupcakes have to be vanilla only. He’s watching his weight.

[HorrrGoodnight]

Does he want cupcakes? Is that a serious question ma'am?

[ams1001]

"He gets mad."

SO LET HIM BE MAD!

Dr. Paradise is going to keep him busy. 2 homework assignments!

[MagicEyes]

Double portions. I think he's underestimating, a little bit. 

[Chicklet]

That's an expensive cart there Mom. Hope he pays her back.

The meth took his teeth it seems

His poor mom, just…stop. Either change or starve
