But she lost the weight once. Why does she have to do it again? So she says.

I wish that were true. I've lost and found the same 10 pounds dozens of times.

Damn. Tornado sirens keep going off in Norman Ok.

My son was traumatized by the sirens and the tornado drills in Norman when we lived there. He was in kindergarten. He still freaks out (at 41) when the sirens go off here.

Be careful.....we need you back to snark next week!!!

[hoosiermom]

I'm sorry,but I can't help laughing a little when I see those three walking down the hallway. It reminds me of penguins.

[zoemom]

I see Dr. Baby Voice in their future........

Glad I don't live in an area that needs weather sirens! Though my friend is still getting her house back in order after Hurricane Sandy which is so frustrating.

[Armchair Critic]

Goodnight everybody.... good luck with "your eating habits" this week and "I'm proud of you" for adding some excitement to a kind of dull episode.

Ain’t that the truth!!!!  I call them stealth pounds. Cause they’re gone and then they creep back when you aren’t looking.

She and the one with the bright blue eye shadow (sorry, I can't keep straight who's who while following this thread) can bond over hair and makeup.

(Thank you, show, for putting Clarence's name on the screen in case we were confused.)

I think Whitney weighs less than her!

Thank you all for this evening.  Much fun. My elderly dad passed away on Saturday and I was half watching and researching medical alert devices for our mother.  First time I've LOL'd in the past few weeks.  See you next week.

[hoosiermom]

They sound off the sirens around here for severe thunderstorms too. Not just tornados. Really pisses me off.

[iwasish]

Clarence is having second thoughts..,.

 

yup he gained.

DirectvNow just belched... damn you, streaming service!!!!

Stay safe! 

Tornado hasn't blown me away yet. Good thing I carry extra weight to keep me grounded during high wind.

Take care!

She does.  I meant the  comparison with comment about she lost weight before,  why does she need to do it again.

[ShortyMac]

Life stuff and stress doesn't just stop. You have to make the right choices in spite of those things.

Fonfer, you have my condolences.  I'm so sorry.

Clarence’s outfit is so fly.

My condolences.  ?It sucks. Glad we could make you laugh. ((((hugs)))) 

[ams1001]

Mom died in surgery...maybe that's the traumatic event next week's description referred to.

Oh Fonfereksglen I'm so sorry.  Glad we could add a little levity to what had to be a very difficult week for you.  I know how hard it can be, my dad passed away on my birthday two years ago.  Sending you virtual hugs!

[aliya]

Good night, y'all!

Sending good thoughts to you, Fonfereksglen!  Glad that you found some chuckles tonight!

[CringeWatcher]

Y’all have a good evening and everybody stay safe!

[DC Gal in VA]

Well good night and rest up for round two next week!

[ams1001]

Good night, all. Wishing you a week of good eating habit!

[calpurnia99]

I think he starved himself for the last weight in, was already off the diet before that weigh in, ordering fried chicken on the way to the office, and he does not want to eat lightly and wants to eat whatever he wants. This is why he doesnt want the surgery I think. He was to keep eating how he likes. He is not serious.

I want a brownie in a cup (Last commercial here). I had a tapioca pudding for dinner, it's hot and I'm not hungry, least not hungry for real food.

I had one last week...ok. not as satisfying as the real thing of course.

Sorry about your dad.   Laughing is good for you, especially in tough times.

Me too! I was thinking, "Oooh, what's wrong... Oh, leggings."

'Cause you just don't think of leggings coming in an 800 lb size.

And my condolences to you and your family, fonfereksglen.

"I already hit the goal; why I have to do it again?"

Maybe we should add this to great quotes from the show.

[elly1517]

How y'all doin! Sorry for my two week absence. I just finished up writing my Master's thesis. I defended today and passed! 

 

Looks like missed a doozy with y'all and Bettie Jo's "cancer" 

 

Missed chatting with y'all. Quickly looking through this thread seems like this episode isn't too great but I'll keep it on in the background. Is this a two-parter?

[auntjess]

Yes, it's a two-parter, and I've found that the live chats are fun to read, and reread, after the fact.
