I wonder how long the average surgery takes..

My BIL had gastric bypass surgery about a month ago. Surgeon told him surgery would last between 2-4 hours. His lasted almost 4 hours because he has some esophageal problems surgeon had to work around. He was discharged next day & is doing great.

Sure.  Thank you! Mattresses are wicked confusing. 

Now back to your regularly scheduled Zzzzzzzzzzz....

I need a new mattress soon and I don't even want to think about it right now.

[Quof]

No, boring therapist, you do NOT hug patients. Ever.

[leFay]

Okay, I legit wanna throw up now!  That Skin Tight commercial? At the end she's pulling out her skin and you can see right through it!  Thanks, TLC...

Just now?  I'm an hour into my bottle.  :)

 

You guys, this is really dull.  I changed the channel 15 minutes ago and just came back and they look/sound exactly the same.

No, had my first glass at 5:30. ?

Nothing to stop you from deep frying a turkey in there, either.

And that’s tonight’s “I shrieked with laughter and scared the chihuahua” moment. 

[DC Gal in VA]

Their joint therapy session really did have me choking up over the amount of abuse both of these women have suffered. Yet another malicious, violent POS, beating your wife and making her daughter watch. Again I say, there is no Hell hot enough for these fuckers!

[QuinnInND]

These Plexaderm commercials!! Gross!

Nobody hugs me Except my mom and Mr. Lotion. Even my grandpa and I shake hands.

[leFay]

Speaking of little dogs, how come these people don't have the obligatory little dog (s)?

Dang. My bed is going to shit and I REALLY want one of those purple mattresses. I’ve been researching awhile and it looks kind of awesome. 

Money though. Ugh. 

My sister and her husband got one for their wedding anniversary and it is awesome.

[QuinnInND]

Glad she dumped Dwayne! 

[Concerned]

Looks like Bettie Jo and her husband Albert Einstein next week

I'm watching Twister.  Damn, now on to Aunt Meg's house in Wakita.  Hope she is still alive!

That movie is one of my guilty pleasures. I've seen it in whole or in part a ton of times. I put up a picture from the movie  on a PowerPoint and gave a student a food prize (sorry , Dr Now) if they could name the movie. It was the scene with Bill Paxton from the back, looking at the 'greenage.' Aliya jr went to kindergarten in OK, where they have tornado drills in the schools. He was traumatized. He still freaks out if the siren goes off.  We're not quite in Tornado Alley, but close enough for a number of sightings each year.

[hoosiermom]

they just showed a commercial for an "all new" episode of this for next week!

Who dis woman? I don't recognize that therapist.

I don't understand why Dr. Now doesn't have a "house" therapist in his office.  My friend had bypass surgery about 10 years ago and her doc required all of his patients to see a therapist and having ongoing psychological support after the surgery.   JMO, but it seems like many of the participants on the show are unhealthy both physically and mentally.

Do you give them the hose again when they do? (it puts the lotion on it's skin...)

Now back to your regularly scheduled Zzzzzzzzzzz....

Ya know, those damn things can make you look wicked fat when they’re new.

[Guest]

I give it a month before Jennifer has a new boyfriend...and a year before she's pregnant again.

[ChicksDigScars]

Jennifer looks pretty!

If there's anything this show has taught us, it's that there's nothing to stop you from eating while you go to bed.

You're a hoot!

Jennifer looks pretty good.

Absolutely I do.

Did that nameless friend just roll her eyes back in her head when Dr Now walked in?

[ams1001]

I just discovered that reddit 600PL page has a bingo game...

OMG, I just saw the commercial for next week's episode and I seriously thought that was Whitney Thorne lying on the bed getting an ultrasound.  
I still think there eventually be a cross over of these two shows.....

[Armchair Critic]

A good ending. Now if Marissa would only give up the blue hair.

Goodnight everybody!

Don't bother- it's the "next big thing" that is completely useless... I work for a mattress manufacturer and the purple thing is just the latest (useless) trend...

I need a new one, but bought one for my son a year ago and they all seemed to be pillow top. How do you flip a pillow top mattress? Will they wear out faster since you can't flip them?

[elly1517]

Good for them to lose the weight. Shame the episode was such a bore, but lovely as always to chat with all of you!

It wasn’t Whitney??? Walked in at the end of the commercial and thought it was her!

Have a great week, Pounders!

Friend needs to lose the mesh-paneled leggins.

(That was a typo but I'm leaving it.)

Y’all brightened up a very dull 2 hours!

Just wondering what makes you say that? She’s 42 (so the eggs aren’t exactly in prime condition) and she hasn’t had a baby in 20yrs, she probably got her tubes tied after her last. 

 

I would like to see what happens between her and Dwayne, now that the dynamics have changed.

[Armchair Critic]

They are both in the lower 200's now. The mom weighs less than the daughter!

see you all next week if it is indeed a new episode. looks like it will be.

[MsVixen]

Jennifer's ass still looks the size before the surgery.

Marissa might not to have skin surgery because she has "youth" on her side.   Mudder will need to have some says Dr. Now.

It's been fun y'all!  See you next week!

Jennifer seems like the kind of woman who can't go without a man for a minute.

Nice to see everyone. I'm off to make myself a Greek salad for lunch.

An actual pillow top has a topper sewn on top of a firm mattress... most manufacturers don't make them any more because the pillow top material shifts and breaks down... all mattresses will have a foam top, depending on how soft you want to go...anyhoo, with modern day foams that are used, you don't need to flip them like we did back when they were cotton or wool... 

I did NOT need to see Blue Hair's ass right now....

[rlc]

Why sleeveless?

Mine has a memory foam layer and all I can do is rotate it, which I don't do often enough so it has a permanent depression on the side I sleep on (I realized recently it's 10 years old by now).

Night Y'all!

Yep, but he’s a little pudgster, so he’s sometimes known as “my 600 lb chihuahua.”

Ah I see- I was focusing more on the pregnant part, given her age and not having a live birth in 20yrs (she has no minor children). 

[Stusan]

Thanks for the fun, peeps!
