I am not looking to get to any certain size, but I am 57, and know that as you get older, the weight gets harder to take off. Belly fat is menopausal, but it also comes from being stressed out. I have done tons of research, and for me, drinking my morning tonic really helps with the belly fat. It has to be what works best for YOUR BODY, not someone else's body, though there are many little tricks that work for all of us.

ButterQueen July 15, 2017 Share July 15, 2017 I just watched the entire episode. The opening with the beautiful water and the background screaming cracked me up. I ff'd through everything Tamra, Lydia, bible study, and the new HW. I don't think Tamra looks good with her new face. I really felt sorry for Shannon....she really looked heavier. It's so demoralizing, especially as it comes with age. I loved the scene with Archie!!! Surprisingly, her scenes were the best for me. I love an honest Shannon. She looked so uncomfortable shopping with Tamra. If I were Shannon, I'd have Tamra or Eddie help me get in shape. I enjoy Brianna and Vicki's relationship.....so I'll return to my table of one.

smores July 16, 2017 Share July 16, 2017 Shannon is just exhausting. Everything with her is high drama and she's so high strung, I just can't with her. If you don't say what she wants/needs to hear in just the right way, then you'll pay for it. I don't know that she is like this in a malicious way, but it's just too much. I wish Vicki would go away. The only thing I have to add that I haven't already seen about her is that even though she had a facelift, I don't think she's looking all that great. When she was with her popular girl friend, her skin was looking awfully crinkly. Tamra isn't bothering me so far, but I need the bible study to go away. I don't care if Tamra or Lydia discuss things in terms of being a Christian. I don't care if they say they're going to pray for others, etc. What I don't want on my screen is the actual dissecting of the bible verse, I didn't sign up for bible study, I don't go to it for a reason, so don't bring it to my living room. Hopefully they'll back off of that now that they've reintroduced Lydia. I am not thrilled to see her back, I didn't like her the first go round. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/59403-s12e01-the-great-divide/page/9/#findComment-3461501

It's hard to reconcile the weight gain with all the other horrible symptoms the menopause bitch throws at you. I know it was hard for me, I felt horrible and it took me a year to lose the 20 pounds. I do hope Shannon is in counseling regarding David's affair. She seems broken, and I'm not sure she will ever fully trust David again. I know I couldn't. Shannon has pretty much backtracked from her ridiculous assertion. I feel for Shannon last year Kelly pointed out her chin hairs and this season she is carrying around a lot of extra weight. I have always felt Shannon would feel like she was the bad guy if she didn't give David another chance, I think some her weight gain might have as much to do with securing rejecting from David so she doesn't have to face the fact she can't get over the affair and be the one pull the plug. Maybe she feels like she would let her girls down if she left the marriage after all the downs they experienced as a family. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/59403-s12e01-the-great-divide/page/9/#findComment-3462398

Maybe in the verrrry beginning.....but she never really succeeded in peddling those crappy 'cancer-curin' smoothies, not really. She had to shut down her so-called charity, which was really just a fishing expedition for potential insurance contacts, before she even got started. Tamra was onto her immediately and planted that seed of doubt with the 'cough-bullshit-cough' almost in the first episode. Everybody was always suspicious. Sure, maybe the initial announcement of Brooks having cancer garnered her some sympathy, but the sympathy quickly ended once the questions began and the psychic was brought in. That birthday cake for brooks in Tamra's gym was even really just a lure to corner him in one place and interrogate him. She never succeeded at what she was selling. And never got one casserole. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/59403-s12e01-the-great-divide/page/9/#findComment-3462526

I don't know, I think there are some here that still think Vicki was completely innocent in the attempted cancer scam and that it was all Brooks. And there were a number of people on her twitter that supported her through that entire season into last season. No, she didn't fool the other HWs that season but she did fool some viewers though. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/59403-s12e01-the-great-divide/page/9/#findComment-3462656

She also always needs you to greet her with a great, big, enthusiastic smile! David really should have said "no way! Quinoa??? I was hoping it was quinoa!!! Again! Yay!! Thank you, beautiful, thin Shannon! Thank you! What was I thinking when I cheated on you?? You are THE BEST!" There. That would have made for a great night.

She's a FAILED conwoman. She conned NO ONE. EVER. everyone can see her lies and deceptions coming a mile away. She's not smart enough to be a conwoman. Though she has the morals of one, and tried awfully hard. She has conned plenty of people. This cancer deal happened a couple of seasons ago. Wanna bet she has written new insurance policies over at Coto Insurance? That even with all of the negative national exposure she received, and even with there being plenty of other folks in and around southern California who sell similar products, she has continued to get new business? My bet is that she has (and she has probably lost some business as well). And that means she successfully pulled of a scam. Maybe not about the cancer, but about who she is which is the point. That she could do something like that, and continue to write policies proves that she has scammed some people into believing anything that she has to say. That is the real shame of it all. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/59403-s12e01-the-great-divide/page/9/#findComment-3464663

I am still struggling with the "partner". She clearly said she has a partner now. Her website doesn't list any such person. It seems it is a four person operation-Vicki, Michael, a PR woman and a property loss person. I am amazed her business thrives as she has such a seedy reputation. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/59403-s12e01-the-great-divide/page/9/#findComment-3464872

It's a huge dichotomy with the screeching, vain, lying, gossiping women on this show. I just remembered that "do we want a baby storyline" that Tamra had a few years ago, with the FAKE BABY!!! at least the Bible study and weight gain are real (right?)
