'Working out is something mom and I can do together." Let her have her independence Whit, you spend enough 'time' with mom. They definitely read this forum as I notice Jess calling her out on her form 😂 Whit calling Todd out on his leg injury is rich coming from the Queen of injury fakery. Why am I watching this mess? How many times can Whit mention the 'kiss'.

Yeah I don't see how they were allowed to show possession of cocaine.

This show has lowered the bar so far that you need to have a shovel to find it. Are the producers exploiting Buddy's drug issues for ratings, or the viewers' gullibility? Likely both.

OMGoodness, Heather. Buddy is a bum. A guy who still needs to work on his recovery (he's not a bum because he's in recovery, but just because he's a bum). You'd think she lost out to marrying Prince Harry. Girlfriend needs to find her big girl panties and get over it.

Thank You!

watch i said this now tlc will be bringing us addict house or recovery house next season.   I can here it now, it's cynergy people not exploitation,  we have to begin the conversation about food and other additions to the forefront.  yah that's how they pitched this shit storm too.  just wait until people end up flailing around on the street their face smeared with cake crawling out the window from carb detox.  friends don't let friends eat carbs, 

don't get me wrong I think addiction treatment like this would be a step in the right direction for all our barnicals, I am just concerned about it being a show on the "learning"channel.

Yes there was so much fake at that party.  I’m also calling BS on Babs not knowing she was going to the gym, and Heather’s devastation about Buddy.  We will see about this so-called girlfriend.

Ok. So this fat POS is accusing Todd of exaggerating his injury! Hmmm...I remember a few seasons ago that Twit faked a foot injury so she wouldn’t lose ANOTHER dance competition! All of her injuries have been fake or exaggerated for TV.  Todd who runs every single day, works out and dances could really have an injury! Uggh.

I had to fast forward through the Buddy scenes bec I dont give a fuck about him.  Boring. 

Heather was a pill at the pool party. No wonder she's not getting dates.  No effort at all. Boring.

Babs' health is not a tv plot.  Leave the poor woman alone,  Twit. 

Rv is a  waste of time and Glen's $.

final thoughts

I am sad for the sitting around the table, calling grocery store man for a date, it was like a support group for desperate, sad people who don't love themselves.  maybe stop trying to find love on websites maybe find someone who you have a common interest with like a book club, yoga,  competitive beard growing (whisker wars is a thing on netflix, oh watch is fucking awesome ridiculous)

did someone read the cat off the counter posts and it made it in the show

omg the 27 year old pool boy from Trinidad,  heather.  she seemed kidna considerending dating this made up person from the tlc manufactured pool party.  or I hope this is the case. 

I get why this group is tight, they all seem to have issues with addiction or troubled home lives.  it happens to a lot of people. I know tlc exploits human misery.  

take care of yourself and each other in the words of j. springer

The only one still remotely interesting on this show is Todd. I laughed when he said he would have to get his affairs in order before letting Whitney drive him around in the RV. 

Zero interest in Buddy. Only slightly more than that in Whitney. I do think Whitney has lost some weight since last season.

There's just so little substance to this show, certainly not enough for 2 hrs.  There's so little really going on that the things they do seem so forced at the least and some totally fabricated.  The novelty of watching a "fat girl dancing"  has become stale, there's just nothing to see here.

whitney stop pretending you don't care about losing weight,  it's ok to both love and care about yourself.  It's called the middle ground. either or thinking is a sign of extremism. black and white thinking means we need to develop critical thinking skills 'merica.  let's maybe google some Venn diagrams to work on this skill.  it's ok to prevent diabetes, prevent a heart attack or prevent getting a stroke like your much thinner mom.  it's called self worth. it's kinda sad people are not taught that.

Right? I'm sure she  encouraged the show to write in scenes of people "forcing" her to weigh herself so we can see she lost weight.  Then she can act like she doesn't care when in reality we know she does.

So grocery store guy invites these strangers to a pool party and then doesn't show up? OK, TLC. What ever you say. 

Buddy owes Whitney big time for getting him a starring role on her show. We all know this is where his money is coming from and this is why he is moving back to Greensboro. He's gotta keep those check rolling in, even if it means kissing Whit on camera.  It should be re-named "My Big Fat Clean and Sober Life".  Too bad Whit doesn't have enough of a life of her own.

Not just that - why are her worse nightmares not Buddy relapsing and her best friend being in pain?  It’s never about someone else. It’s about HER watch and HER house.  She cares about nothing except in relation to her. She doesn’t care if Babs makes more progress in her stroke recovery. She cares about saying ‘look what I did for Mom’. 

I’m not sure she’s even able to see the difference between what she does and actual caring about someone.

I don’t understand what the other women see in him but for Whitney a man is always about her proving she can get him. She wants him because Heather had him. I still believe her ultimate goal is to ‘turn’ on of her gay friends. She is absolutely convinced she’s so sexy she can do it.

That was one of my favorite Seinfeld episodes - Elaine complaining that she couldn't land this really luscious gay guy because, well, for many reasons she had to say very carefully on broadcast tv, LOL.  For Whitney, any challenge that is also pornographic will be high on her To Do list.

So Whitney goes to a pool party clad *only* in a bathing suit and rides to and from in the car similarly (un)dressed?  Heather becomes hysterical because her former, coke-snorting, barely intelligible boyfriend is in a mutual friend's house (is he that great??), Babs who hasn't worked out a day in her life and has had a stroke goes to the gym and is a convert, Whitney is ok lounging topless (during her "afternoon nap" as she mauls a cat) and asks Buddy to join her- and rambles about how "physical" they are- but wants to "vom" thinking of having sex with him?  I'm reeling here.

Oh, and I really, really didn't need to see how she may or may not, logistically speaking, be able to wipe her own ass in the tiny RV bathroom.

* Let's not forget mouth-breathing mumbler. 

* You know, I saw this kind of thing when I was in law enforcement. Women doing the darnedest things for the most pathetic, greasy, ugly, smelly, stupid LOSERS. Of course, the women weren't much different themselves. At least Heather is attractive and once she ditches her hangup on that loser, she has the best shot of any of them to land a normal, decent man whenever she's ready. 

Whitney is so tacky and it's pathetic watching her try. Since she can't land a normal man, he's all she's got left. They can be greasy together.

We who watch court shows also see this all the time. I could see Twit, after MBFFL is canceled, showing up on The People's Court or Judge Judy suing Buddy for back rent and loans while Buddy sues for emotional distress over having to apply chub rub to Twitney's nether regions.

Twit would have also fit in well with the show Starting Over. Iyanla Vanzant, from the O Network's Fix My Life, was one of the therapists, replacing an original cast member. I use the word therapist loosely  here but it was pretty entertaining. Maybe after MBFFL is canceled they could do a Starting Over reboot with Whitney or better yet, help Barb write and perform a comedy routine (Barb: My daughter is so fat... Audience Response: How fat is she?). Anyway, it would be more entertaining than 2 hours of this swill.

oh so you saw that starting over house thing too.  It totally reminded me of that show but they needed 2 people for whitney.  the fat lady was more calm and the thin lady cj or something was loud and attention seeking.  I remember they seemed to graduate people who were no  longer useful to the plot and called them healed. I love fix my life.  it will be heather and the string of single mom's who buddy destroys in the wake of his relationships.  ugh.  maybe if he wants a serious relationship he needs a serious job other than this to support a family because reality star and pizza boy is not a fall back career. he doesn't even have a pet... start with a plant

Whitney... it's not up to you. YOU are not poor Whitney, trying to control everyone's life. You want to save them all but at the same time act so ignorant... "Heather told me not to tell her about Buddy so I'm not going to tell her he's living here!" Does that make ANY sort of sense? You think you're the best friend in the world but then you fail in the most basic way.

I really think Heather needs professional help if she's still this hung up on Buddy. I mean he's not smart, he's not attractive, he's not rich, in fact he's barely employed and he's a known drug addict. Maybe he was amazing in bed? I don't know. I sure hope that's all scripted and Heather is going all out for her children's college funds.

Todd was going in on Whitney about that RV. I usually laugh a lot, I love how Todd snarks on her but at the same time it felt sort of cheap. Whitney... RV... it's too easy. They could just fly to the cities. It's a 3 city tour. Flights and hotels so Whitney won't get stuck in the toilet. The RV sales guy was really chipper and just smiled away as his clients were a whole trainwreck. When I saw them close up on the RV business's name at the end of the scene, I could understand why.

It was hilarious that the boat man just sent them out on a boat and stood there to see if they would drown silently as Whitney was thrashing and wailing. He earned his paycheck!
