[PrincessPurrsALot]

  Quote

The Dreier twins collectively lost more than 400 lbs after sleeve gastrectomy procedures. They work toward skin surgeries, as a major life event threatens the security they thought they had.

This is the LIVE CHAT thread.  It will be open during the US East Coast showing and again during the US West Coast showing.

Chicken enchiladas! I don’t want to starve!

[Concerned]

Warched “Trainspotting” about heroin addicts this afternoon and it’s amazing how the denial, manipulation and self deceit is so similar to 600 Pound Life.

[QuinnInND]

Hi Pounders! My eating habit tonight is pork chops and green beans with salad. Wasn't too hungry today. I'm still full from our anniversary dinner last night. 

[Caoimhe]

Starting day 3 of a 7 day water fast - so no eating here!  Husband is away so I get to watch from the start, but I sort of wish this was Erica week.  I like the twins and hope they are doing well, but Erica’s whiny manipulativeness is truly snark-worthy!

[simba barracuda]

I love these girls, incidentally 

[hoosiermom]

Lettuce and cold shrimp.

Eating habit: Big salad that my nutrition coach would approve of and a single-serving key lime pie that I probably won’t mention to her.

I missed you guys!

This week was stress and my eating habit so far tonight is Turkey Hill All Natural Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream ("All Natural" means it's healthy, right?) and three Thin Mints. I took a couple vacation days so am off now until Tuesday but I need to go car shopping so my stress is not over.

I forgot they had a little doggie. His sniffing at the burger as it was passed across the car seat was too cute.

When I saw them bathing and powdering each other, it reminded me of that Rebel Wilson scene from the movie, Bridesmaids.

I tried to watch that once but I had so much trouble understanding their accents I gave up.

[CoachWristletJen]

In the movie, she has a brother, and they take baths together and shave each other's arms.

What the heck is this?  Was this on the show?

[ShortyMac]

Dinner was homemade vegetable beef soup made from leftover pot roast. Heavenly. My current eating habit is various TV snacks - pork rinds and port wine cheese, strawberries, whatever else I feel like having...

[simba barracuda]

I swear, if something happened to their grandma I am going to freak out

Ooh, strawberries! I had my first raspberries of the year the other day. They were pretty good.

[MsVixen]

Hi Y'all!!!  Haven't decided on what my eating habits are yet!

It's two siblings from the movie Bridesmaids. It's what I thought of when I saw Brandi and Kandi bathing and powdering each other.  

I am very glad to see them doing so well, though!

[ams1001]

Two doggies!

[DC Gal in VA]

Aaahh, here we all are once again. I don't really expect a whole lot of snark with these two; I really liked them and wish them the best but I feel that, once again, TLC  needed to split the two hours between them and another 600 pounder.

Strawberries are my absolute favorite fruit. :) I love berry season.

[simba barracuda]

Their clothes are so big and their skin is so saggy❤️

[CouchTater]

Hey y'all!

I didn't know we were still getting new shows this season!!  What???!!!  Luckily I noticed my DVR recording.

My eating habit is a protein shake.  I'm in the midst of a 2-week pre-op diet for the sleeve gastrectomy y'all!!  Not  being done by Dr. Now, though.  Thankfully, I'm not in his 600-pound territory.

My surgery is next Tuesday.  Wis me luck!

[Pepper Mostly]

Guys. They're nervous.
