She's gonna struggle with taco withdrawal 

[Ladybugnine]

I got 705, because she's so tall -- 6'3, I think. At least that's what my TV guide says.

I refer to her as Nurse Maybelline

Didn't the first guy (the successful one) call her Rose? Or was that a different nurse?

[mk828]

[Suzywriter]

She is tall. 717.

It's weird for me to see these old VN vets. I look at them and think of WWII guys, but have to remind myself that most of them are dead, or very old, and probably not getting around and the grizzled vets I see now are from VN.  My late husband was in VN and would be 74 if he was still alive.  You don't think of yourself as getting older until you see someone one and think, "Wait, aren't they my age? When did they get so old?"

She could use a Rollator to move with that terrible mass. It looks like it must be so painful.

Wonder if pregnancy bands could be of use in her situation... she would need some serious extenders but I wonder if it would hold it up...

[ams1001]

Okay, I'm finally eating. Salad with romaine, baby spinach, carrots, radish, cauliflower, and cheddar.

Okay, Baylen has cute doggies but I'm still not watching.

[HorrrGoodnight]

Well she is a little lower

And maybe a bucket or something for the car? That thing has to be heavy 

[Auntie Anxiety]

Just 709? That Fupa is probably about 100 pounds.

I was reminded the other day that 1995 was 30 years ago and I was a sophomore in college then and that just can't be right.

Maybe the ones for farm use.

[lemoncake]

I want Dr Now to remove the belly so he can hold it up and weigh it.

Jacky honey, cut out 90% of what you are eating. Its not that hard and doesn't require teaching 

[CrazyInAlabama]

Month 1-710 lbs weigh in with Rosie the nurse.

They all say this, I wonder if it is in the script

They know on some level that they will not give up the tacos and vanilla cupcakes. 

She's embarrassed for her grandfather to "see me like this". JACKY. He sees you like this every goddamn day! 

[Auntie Anxiety]

Wow, that thing is going to give me nightmares.

When I was in high school, I was on the marching band. We had a ceremony for WW2 vets who never had their high school graduations. The band played the naval hymn. One of the most meaningful things I have ever done. Still remember it like it was yesterday. 

[Pepper Mostly]

She says she's not snacking! This woman, who has to stop for a snack on her way home from a shopping trip, actually says she isn't snacking. I do not expect success. 

[Hellga]

710 lb.  Wow.  She must be pretty tall to be still mobile at that weight.  And, of course, she is still very young which helps.  And she was morbidly obese since childhood, so her bones and joins and muscles adapted to it.  Though unfortunately her metabolism also adapted to it, so she is going to have a hell of a time trying to lose weight.

She eats once a day.  I guess that means continuous non-stop eating for 16-18 hours...

The nurse mentioned the 62 year old lady  in room 302 when I was in the hospital last week.

I thought "Geez, they need to get it together...I'm in 302...oh."

Aunt Walmart Superstore is an enabler.

[HorrrGoodnight]

Do we think she can doo dat?

[Chicklet]

Hope her aunt stops the 5 plate breakfasts and the taco stops after grocery shopping.

She is all delusional.  Thinks she got this big because she stopped going to the gym.  Says she doesn't snack and has no enablers (so what does she think her aunt is, her guardian angel???)

I hate the "At your age" ... like dude I'm not dead, just maybe a little older.

I freaked when my oldest turned 30...shes getting closer to 40 now. I cannot believe it.

She will make it 4 plates and sprinkle some parsley on it.  That gotta do it.  

[Auntie Anxiety]

Good luck with that, Jacky. She’s going to turn her life around right after the stop at that really good taco place.

She is young, it was super easy for me to stay thin at that age. At 46 not so much. She should be able,to lose the weight if she cuts back no problem

A few years ago there was  big snowstorm. My husband was working in NYC for a few days and it was before houseguest arrived. I love to spend the day watching weather updates when there is severe weather, so I'm parked in front of my TV, watching all the weather news, and the talking heads keep saying "check on your elderly neighbors". Meanwhile, my neighbor on one side cleared our sidewalk, his partner came by with some cookies, and the neighbor on the other side cleared the top of our driveway with his snowblower. It hit me like a bolt from the blue the I am an elderly neighbor, and was being checked on! Holy shit.
