You know, if the people on the show we just have a job they would have less time to spend eating! None of them work even if they are mobile. This to get up first thing in the morning get the car and go buy food. Most people get up in the morning, get ready and go to work,  or take care of the kids and take them to school.  

Good point. At what age do these people opt out of life and  become professional eaters??

Odds that all 3 were abused by their parents?

Not touching thise odds. You're probably right

I feel this tinkling piano music is the harbinger of an upcoming death story.

Chicken tenders for breakfast??

EEK that reminds me of 'Something's Wrong with Aunt Diane' (HBO documentary) where she insisted the kids got chicken nuggets for breakfast at McDonalds.

300lbs+ at 12??????????

[QuinnInND]

How horrible to put restrictions on their food! *sarcasm*

[zoemom]

Anyone else having trouble understanding them.  I used to live in New Orleans, never heard folks talk like they had marbles in their mouths.

Errrmm. Rashanda panty situation is dire. 

Where do you even find animal print bikinis that size? (I don't really want to know. Don't answer that.)

Well, I had bought a cherry pie for my eating habit but I’ve lost my appetite. 

I had some Entenmann's mini cherry pies but I ate the last one yesterday. For breakfast. ;)

My doxie is playing with her newest squeaky toy and trying to disembowel it. She's barking and growling. Annoying. 

That's not a snack!! Pizza and coke?? 

My friend has a mini Doxie mix and she destroys every toy she gets. I gave her one for her first Christmas and my friend posted a video of her with the stuffing strewn around not ten minutes after she gave it to her.

 

There's Brandie and Brandon? 

10 chicken tenders and a large order of fries would be more than enough for my parents and my brother and me combined.

[hoosiermom]

These are some BIG people!

Cajun food is delicious.

That's what I was thinking. Maybe they have a good excuse for being overweight? It's not like they're eating, as Chris Rock put it, "mayonnaise sandwiches." 

[Miracle Maxie]

Dear God, how is that couch holding up?

[Kid]

I am not going to make it through this one. Three food addicts is a little too much for me to handle in one shot.

[Shnoopy]

When they are all sitting.on the couch, look at that belly hanging. 

[Armchair Critic]

One sign it's time for a longer dress is when your belly hangs below the hemline.......

[DC Gal in VA]

Well dayum, daddy kicked all their asses to the curb! How the Hell did he get away with that?

[zoemom]

Brother says they come from a "healthy family".  He looks thin compared to them sitting on the couch.

[leFay]

I'm about to put on the Closed Captioning so I can understand this garbled language...

Barely.

[parrotlover]

Hey y’all! My eating habit tonight is tamales from the farmers market. Which I balanced out with some 7 Grain bread, cauliflower and bananas. Yeah none of that goes together but it’s what I bought at the farmers market.

That's typical doxie! Mine does the same thing! 

 

OK. You guys aren't a healthy family, and you're not chunky. You're morbidly obese. Big difference. 

[hoosiermom]

How did they all fit in that car?

By healthy he means fat.

What's hanging out from under her dress?  Don't answer that......

This is common, Zoemom.  I live outside of New Orleans and some of the mixed accents almost need captions.

He probably got tired of paying for the damn grocery bill.

He probably owned the house. Asshole, but totally legal. And it was probably easier for mom to just walk away. 

[Guest]

I feel this family was the also-ran to the Stewarts who got their own series (Family by the Ton) and these poor folks got shafted with two hours of airtime tacked on to the end of the season.

[Shnoopy]

So keep eatin bro. 

[Donut Bear]

that shot of the three of them on the couch is a masterpiece

Good evening, everybody!  My eating habits are going to be a turkey bacon sammich with ice cream!

[zoemom]

Now TLC is captioning for us!  These folks are really addicted, sad....

[aliya]

Dang - we have major thunderstorms coming through. I hope the TV doesn't go out.

How does someone who is pretty much home bound get their face pierced? 

[chickenella]

At least this family wears underwear.

Good guess. The Stewarts were lots more personable than these folks, though.

[leFay]

and there's the first Food Orgasm face...

[Shnoopy]

Dr gonna tell you quit eating so much! Damn,  y'all all want a magic pill.

And the kids went with Mom because she would feed them all that shit.  Pop already tried to restrict their eating.

[QuinnInND]

Scared and wondering what the first step will be. Let's see... STOP CRAMMING IN FOOD BY THE POUND!!

Girlfriend is seriously enjoying her food so much she gotta close her eyes while eating. Hey sistah, why don't you and your fried chicken get a room!!!?

[chickenella]

 she looked orgasmic eating that chicken ?

She's so cute she gets away with it, anyway. She's a dapple mini-Doxie with long legs (well, long for a Doxie; guessing she's mixed with something like a MinPin but they don't know for sure - she sure can run, though!). I knew the toy wouldn't last but I got it because my friend loves giraffes so I had to get her a giraffe toy.

Probably got it done  when they could still waddle around.

Guess the sisters could sit in the bed doing splits like that the Stewart's auntie did....

Where are you Aliya?  It's about to storm by me, too, and I'm hoping DirecTV doesn't poop out on me.

I'm in southeast Michigan.
