Also, I'm sorry but I'm loving the corn chip horn on this lady's head and can't WAIT to see the episode tomorrow night.

That ain't no corn chip, it's a pork rind! Hee

[Gbb]

OMG the skin on her upper arms. Oh and Mom sucks ass.

Well, at least she's disciplined enough to eat a good breakfast before having dessert.

Right?

Lip-smackin' good, apparently.

“Like heaven wrapped in these ‘tiny’ bites,” as she eats a chocolate cupcake the size of my dog. 

Again, I’m behind but I can’t miss a chance to snark, as your comments are leading me to believe she will have some success :)

Being 700 pounds is evidence of mental illness, particularly bipolar. She intellectually knows that she is killing herself, but can’t stop her behavior. If you say about somebody that there’s nothing wrong with them, they just need a good kick in the ass. Well, doctors call that bipolar.

I hope you are being sarcastic and not serious when saying that.  Bipolar disorder is a serious mental illness and NOT of a personality disorder kind.

Yiu can see the weight loss in her arms. 

[Caoimhe]

I'm not sure why she needs someone with her if she's recovered from the surgery?

[JudgeyMcJudgyPants]

I’ll say it.  This episode is BORING!

Whitney is going to do a challenge...like have a likeable personality???

[CrazyInAlabama]

Lost 222 lbs, so down to  469 (I think, I'm not a great subtracter without a calculator).    So daddy's back, and mommy bailed again.     Great way for mom to make sure her kid goes off the rails.   Mom is jealous of her daughter's weight loss, and the fact the Mom is growing a bunch.

Late to the party tonight... this looks much more dysfunctional than we’ve had for the last few weeks....

Hi there, glad to see you made it!

[Hellga]

Here comes the Big Talk with father.  

[hoosiermom]

I live in southern Indiana and am one of the few people who like the heat and humidity. I finally get my bones warm after winter.

They looked like they were melting.

Did I just see Twitney at a climbing gym? Seriously?

I think TLC just wants someone there so they'll have more to film of the Poundticipant other than them shuffling from the microwave to the sofa all day.

I grew up in Houston. Hated the heat and humidity. Don't miss that sinkhole at all.

My husband grew up in Jersey Village. My MIL still lives there. It is miserably humid.

Yes!! And it’s good for the skin and hair. 

[CrazyInAlabama]

I feel sorry for the herd that have to belay old Whitney.   I hope the wall survives her.

 

Gee Dad, it's called divorce, and people leave.   

I will wet my pants laughing if Lacey ends up smaller than Mom.

Speaking of crossovers, would love to see one of the people who move to Houston go to Joel Osteen’s church.

Oh dear God no, please spare us. This show is enough of a trainwreck.

Oh is dad revving up the water works again? Cram it, dad.

Thanks! I wanted to get here on time but.... darn kids LOL

[QuinnInND]

Her feet are filthy! Ick! 

Apparently she still has the dog.  I saw dog treats on the counter. 

[suzyq8017]

OMG, did her dad just blame her for his not being around because he felt like going out with her was being in a freak show??? Did I hear that right???

[Midnightblue]

Oh joy, hes gonna cry again

I remember my first ever experience with humidity... it was just like being smothered with a blanket soaked in boiling water!

Not one bit. Mom turned on Dr. Now after that first meeting. 

[Guest]

OH! Next week's 600-pounder looks good! Until it's 9:50 pm next Wednesday night and he turns out to be a boring dud, too.

[3girlsforus]

Telling your daughter that you love her loses something when it is preceded but telling her she is a freak show and you didn’t want to go out of the house with her when she was a kid because you were embarassed by her.

Right??? Perfect description! 

[DC Gal in VA]

Okay folks, that was a pretty good talk between Lacey and her dad. Kinda choked up on that one. Good for her saying that that stuff is in the past and he's treating her well now. Glad he owned a lot of his hurtful behavior too.

[JudgeyMcJudgyPants]

What are the thoughts on the new Grinch movie?  I’m partial to the original. I finally saw the Jim Carrey version and thought it was fucking terrible.  But the new one looks cute.

[poeticlicensed]

I get that her parents suck, but should parents generally feel guilty for working? I mean I worked when my kids were growing up and they turned out fine, despite me not being there 24/7. I think we need to separate working to put a roof over the family's head and being uninvolved. Those are not the same thing.

I am thin and try to run 3 times a week. When I was on vacation in Jamaica I couldn't even walk up a flight of stairs without being out of breath. Humidity is no joke.

I did my PhD in Seattle, which has almost no humidity, despite the rain. Wen I'd go to conferences in places with humidity, it would be like being hit in the face when I walked out of the airport. No. Do not like it at all, and once you get used to not having it, it's a real shock to the system to be in it again.

He sure did.  But Lacey handled it pretty well.

 

Between trying to keep up with the show and the chat, I forgot I had chicken broth going... I was honestly afraid to see chicken jelly in the pot, but it seems to have held up OK after 2,5 hours.  Whew.  I usually go for 1,5-2 hours.

We took the kids to see it. We thought it was cute! Fuck the Jim Carrey one.. But the original one is still the best IMO.

A clean house and a bra? This one is highly evolved.

A lot of them recently have worn clothes, top and bottom, and she has shoes too.
I've watched part, and come to chat, then finish and maybe chat with the left coasters.
My eating tonight was mac & cheese from Publix deli.

Yep. The first time I flew back to Houston after moving to Denver, I felt like I was being smothered in a wet blanket when I walked out of the Houston airport.

I went from Las Vegas to Houston. I thought I was going to die. 

[Minivanessa]

Maybe the dog is her dad's?

[Hellga]

She has started a painting class.  At least it's good she found something she likes and it is a group activity.  She is not Justin level of success, but definitely another success story!

I don't think it was the working. I think it was the arguing, and not being there for the kids when the were around.

I grew up in Colorado so my parents hated to come visit in the summer when I moved to Indian,so they didn't. lol

My city goes from ice storm central (hence skipping the gym for Two weeks...yikes) to hot and humid in the summer. I hate both extremes lol. 

[Armchair Critic]

Funny how these people think "getting down" to 400+ pounds is good.

[ams1001]

That belly roll looks like a second set of boobs.
