xwordfanatik May 2, 2019 Share May 2, 2019 I saw two ads for local yard sales that mentioned LuLaNo, coming this weekend. One said $5 for each piece. I may check it out for shits and giggles, just because I can walk there and peruse the unsellable stuff. Yes, Christine looks like she wears appropriate sized clothing. Apparently Meri doesn't realize that she (Meri) looks even heavier than she probably is, by wearing too-tight everything. How delusional. 7 Link to comment

Lol Between the outfits with head flags and the kid nattering and screeching in the background plus the view of their messy house was almost more than I could handle but then she started showing all the crap prizes, flipflop keychains, samples of junk creams and tiny toy koala bears made me want to grab it all and toss in garbage can. Ugh! The various ugly pink, yellow, black, blue cheap "pearls" and tiny brown paper bags for orders made my skin crawl... I hate clutter and that whole set up was a nightmare. 😦 If that's a typical "pearl party" they can keep it and shove it where the sun don't shine. 2 Link to comment

Christine looks 10 years younger. If I'm in the market for a polyester dress with a polka-dotted shark eyeball pattern and I have to choose between Meri and Christine based on their photos, I'm going Christine every time because she actually manages to make some of these clothes look good. And I'm old, is the red clicker in her hand used to take a selfie? And why is it that I look absolutely nothing like I l do in the mirror every single time I take a selfie? Like, who is that person on my phone? Surely that's not what I look like!! (sorry, that's a little ragey and off-topic). IF you are in the market?

Chicklet May 4, 2019 Share May 4, 2019 This family is constitutionally unable to grasp any idea that isn't fringy or from MLM. Why can't Christine just eat less and move more, no she has to grab onto some weird idea that blood type dictates your diet. It's hard to lose weigh, especially for women (sorry men, I hate you for that) so just celebrate it when it happens. Why no, this has nothing to do with the plateau I am currently stranded on. 3 10 Link to comment

I suspect that her blood type just happens to be the one for which a low-carb or ketogenic diet is recommended. It has nothing to do with her blood type and everything to do with not eating the mounds of cereal, pasta, tacos, bagels & cakes etc. that have made most of the family fat.

There is another 3-hour (!!!) episode on the site that I am just diving into. Deanne is a wacko. I can't believe she tried to pressure a size-14 consultant to get stomach surgery. Of course Deanne was getting a kickback for every consultant that went to Tijuana to get the surgery. It's really twisted the complete hold that LLR ended up having on so many lives. And those constant Instagram posts that Meri takes, showing herself in LLR clothes in various locations? Those are practically mandated by Deanne. The interesting thing is that Deanne is not a fan of her female consultants being single or divorced. I would love to know if Meri has any kind of relationship with Deanne and how they get along. 1 4 Link to comment
xwordfanatik May 6, 2019 Share May 6, 2019 Wow. This Deanne must make an exception for Christine (single) and Meri (divorced.) Apparently even Z-list "celebs" get special treatment. I'll have to listen to those. What a shady company. Weight-loss surgery for a size 14? Nuts! 2 Link to comment

Kootie has proven himself an indifferent parent to most of the kids, excepting of course, Robyn's spawn. He could hardly manage to tear himself away from Robyn's Victoria Secret g-string, to get to the hospital and witness Christine giving birth to Truely. He's an asswipe. 12 Link to comment
