I’m super surprised he lost that much weight. But, c”mon, he’s gowned up in the hospital and this is the first time he’s being weighed since moving? Uh-huh, sure. 

I know but I’m so happy he stayed on track I don’t care.

Regular scales only go up to 350 I think, so that seems possible.

 I am ordering groceries on line while I watch.  The store shows your frequent purchases and the last time you bought an item.

I put myself on a Halo Top fast after eating that devil's delight pretty much everyday for awhile. I haven't bought it for 98 days!!! Dr. Now would be proud.

Wow, he's doing great! I thought there would be a gain for sure. But good for him for sticking to it through everything he's been doing. (I'm giving you the side eye, Octavia, with your excuses of "I just moved" and "It's too soon, I wasn't ready" and my favorite, "My life has been too hectic to lose weight!")

Was it Penny who said "I didn't know I would have to lose weight to get surgery"?

[Miracle Maxie]

Will it be Dr Paradise or Lola? And are we getting a boatload more commercials than usual, or what?

[LizzyB]

Poorly placed "Door Dash" commercial...smack in the middle of an episode about a guy who gained hundreds of pounds...having his favorite foods delivered via an app!

Am I the only one who does not understand the appeal of “dr pimple popper” and can’t even watch the commercials bc it’s so gross? 🤮 

The thing that gives me pause with Dr. Pimple Popper is that she always says "oh wow, I've never seen anything like this before!" This would tend to diminish my confidence in her. 

My 90 year old mother happened upon this show the other day and she was gobsmacked. She does not watch the trash I watch. She was AMAZED that this was show at all. 

[QuinnInND]

An ad for Doordash. How appropriate. 

[poeticlicensed]

Any bets which therapist he goes to?

I’d rather watch Dr. Pimple Popper than look at the nasty gravy/waffle concoction that was prepared earlier in this episode.

Whaaaaat??!!! You’re high 😂😂 

 

Obligatory:

I’m #teamgrandma on that one. I literally said the same thing to my husband when I first saw the commercials. “WHY IS THIS A SHOW?!?” Lmao 

[Hellga]

I think Justin would be quite handsome when he is back in shape, both physically and mentally.

Trying to post and it's not quite working.

[QuinnInND]

Any bets on momma coming back into the picture?

Probably! She gave us a lot of good sound bites.

[Azubah]

Regarding the fat heroin addict mom: "Opioid use, acute and chronic, is also associated with weight gain, glycemic dysregulation, and dental pathology. The literature supporting the connection between opiate use and development of preference for sweet tastes is reviewed, and further association with dental pathology, weight gain, and loss of glycemic control are considered. " J Opioid Manag. 2010 Nov-Dec; 6(6): 445–452.

I guess it's the meth and cocaine people who lose weight.

When did Jazz get so much bosom???

[QuinnInND]

225 lost!

Reminded me of this, one of my favorite Simpsons clips from when Homer was trying to gain weight: https://youtu.be/Rnpy3cC673o?t=46

*crosses fingers for Dr. Baby Voice*

[Guest]

WOW! He looks great!

[DEG9]

Wow! Can definitely see a difference. Good job, dude

Definitely when he’s recovered and employed so she can sponge off of him.

[Erinw522]

Good old dr. Paradise 😂😂

Right?? I thought the same thing! She looks like she needs a good bra. 

[Suzywriter]

Dr. Bite-Sized.

[dreadfulLeigh]

Wow, wearing jeans, a spritely jaunt to his step? Yay, Justin!

[Miracle Maxie]

Do they send all the tallest patients to Dr Paradise?

[DC Gal in VA]

Oh hellloooooo Dr. Paradise! Me loves him.😍

[poeticlicensed]

Dr. Paradise!

[cmpbl]

Dr. Paradise is a tiny man? He's so cute.

She needs a refund on those implants (if that's what they are). They look droopy and terrible.

I just wanna put him in my pocket! He's so little and cute!

[JudgeyMcJudgyPants]

Becasue listening to Mr. Judgey say “watch Moonshiners” or “change channel to Gold Rush” would be WAY less annoying than listening to a couple clicks on the remote while laying in bed at night. All you media providers can take your voice remotes and throw them in the garbage.

[Caoimhe]

Glad to see Dr Paradise!  Mom really is a bitch.

I agree...and I live by myself!

His affect is very flat. Rarely any expression. He has anxiety and depression.

[Guest]

Dr Paradise needs some WD40 for that door.

[3girlsforus]

Isn’t Dr. Paradise a psychologist? That’s important with anxiety but it seems like he would need to have a psychiatrist (or other medical doctor) to help him medically as well.

I bet she will be back sometime much later, especially if he does well.   He is actually taking her turning back on him surprisingly well.   

[poeticlicensed]

Paradise  needs to tell Justin to move on from mom. She will never bring anything but dysfunction into his life.

So sad to say @aliya but I think that restaurant owner is absolutely right.

Rick Moranis, Father of the Year. Wife died, he dropped out of Hollywood to raise the kids.

[QuinnInND]

He's looking really good! 

[cmpbl]

Justin has no butt. He looks amazing though.

Yes, he is. I would guess he works with a psychiatrist if he feels the patient needs meds.

[MrsRopersCaftan]

Ooooh, I don't know how this is going to go. I'm worried that it's not going to go well and he's going to backslide.

I agree. He needs a scrip fro Xanax for a crisis. 

[Pepper Mostly]

Wait, has he been making all his appointments and going to therapy? He's not too busy, you know, lying around and cheating on his diet? 

He's sitting at his desk! Go Justin!

[dreadfulLeigh]

He’s really made his apartment look homey! I’m just so impressed by him. Even nearly 700 lbs, his house was clean and neat, his dog was calm and well cared for.

“ nobody told me I had to lose weight when I got here”....*tiny voice* I may have rewatched a few times
