OMG, she is a straight up LIAR and Dr. Now is not fooled! Call on her shit Dr. Now!

Technically, she didn't.  As long as all the drive throughs were hit on one run, without getting out of the car, that's "one meal"!  No matter if it's three-four restaurant-defined "meals" at each drive-through and there are seven drive-throughs. 

[MelissaMinion]

I love Christian...nailing down the max weight loss number for that diet. Sneaky dude.

[Snarkastikate]

She's looking at Dr Now in shock!   So what do we think..... success or total failure?

[shouldbedancing]

Why is she rolling her eyes when he says lose 100 pounds

[88Keys]

She keeps saying Christian is her support system, but we know from the summary that he's not going to last...does anyone think he's not her boyfriend at all, and this is just kind of set up for the show to have more drama?

Two to three large meals a day.  She is just not disclosing how LARGE is 'large'

The meals are so large that they never end.

[Concerned]

Why did  Christian ask what’s the most somebody’s lost in a month? Does he think he’s Alex Trebek?

[Hellga]

Christian doesn't seem like he really wants her to go on that diet... makes me suspicious!

[Julyolo]

She remarked that both of her parents tried to intervene with her about her weight, and she interpreted that as them being mean to her. I wonder if she's going to see doctor Now the same way. As an authority figure.

[umgoblue]

He is asking legit questions...very few companions inquire about anything.

Will my chubster become skinny?!  Oh, hellz naw!😂

Her hip is out?  Probably out looking for dinner.

I'm appearing here all week.  Don't forget to tip your waitress.

We need an "Oh no you DID'ENT" emoji for you! 😆

689! Wowza.

Is "My body can't take it" on the bingo card? 

I thought the same thing. I'm 64, and I'm quite well upholstered. I've been plummeting to earth every so often since I hit my fifties. It takes me a solid ten minutes to get up. Granted, I have to sit and snivel for a few minutes, but its a solid effort to haul myself to my feet. I was impressed with how relatively quickly she got to her feet. Her constant simmering rage must energize her. 

Hai falling friend! I hope you can find something that helps you. Forearm crutches made a huge difference for me and I fall a lot less now.

[shouldbedancing]

I think Christian likes them fat.

I have to say that whole car rental bullshit of not having the car you reserved sucks! Seinfeld, where are you! I wouldn't be crying at the counter, I would be ripping them a new one.

Another bingo square, I’m swollen and that’s at least 20 lbs of weight

That's ok. I'm sure she has a slimming mattress.

I see failure.  Or maybe I just can’t stand her!

[3girlsforus]

Christian had some good questions. I don’t think he’s a chubby chaser in the traditional sense. I think he wants out from his caretaker goal and he knows Maja well enough to know what excuses she will use so he can throw back at her what Dr. Now says. 

[Miracle Maxie]

Ooh, Dr Now has Christian’s number as well as Maja’s. And she’s setting herself up for failure even before they’re out of the parking lot.

What if she went to one of those 24-hour all you can eat casino buffets?  Would she ever leave? 

[cmpbl]

Yeah you can tell she doesn't really want to do this 

[Ellie Godfrey]

I figured it out: Christian invited her to move in and doesn't have the balls to tell her to move out. So he's moving her to Houston so he can get his apartment back,

[MelissaMinion]

I missed the first bit. Does Christian live with her?

[DC Gal in VA]

Dr. Now is fierce tonight calling out how checked out Christian seems.

I hope he reminds her of how much she could have lost every week. Or every time she hits the drive thru.

I thought it was because he knows Maja is going to cheat and whine and lie so when she claims no one can lose that much in two months he can remind her that others have done twice as well. 

[Miss Chevious]

She has such a defeatist attitude. Bitching she’s licked before she even starts! 

I wanna slap this one. Snap out of it!

She's worried about being in a hospital for months? I hate to break it to her, but that's probably her best case scenario.

I really wonder what she's expecting from an initial consultation? It's not like Dr. Now is going to wave a magic wand and make everything all better.

Jesus, Maya, take your pick--hospital, or coffin? Sheesh. 

[MsVixen]

Off topic rant.  She's never going to look "normal".  Even if she lost it all and got skin surgery, her body will be scarred.  She'll have issues with nutrition and she'll still have the urge to shovel it in.  

[Susanlynn9]

Lots of promise for tonight's episode.

I will take your version for now.  I am rather cynical.

This is one of the greatest philosophical questions of all time!  Well done!

Maybe!  Don't know Oregon laws, but here in NY it's next to impossible to get rid of someone even if you didn't invite them in, and if you did - woe is you!

I tripped and fell over a door stop at work a few years ago. I needed help to get up. Since I hadn't fallen for years, I had no idea I wouldn't be able to get up on my own (OK, my leg was bleeding like mad and I was a little freaked, but I still should have been able to get up).

Probably a year ago I started doing an old lady version of DDP yoga. When I fell last semester, I was able to get up with no problem. I don't stand on my head or anything, but doing DDP yoga has really helped my flexibility and core strength. 

[fonfereksglen]

How do all these young Peleton fitness freaks afford all their expensive apartments and homes?

[Hana Chan]

I honestly don't know what some of these people expect. You're obese because you're eating enough for the average family of four. Dr. Now is going to tell you to stop eating so much and they act like this is some kind of radical idea. 

Maja's attitude is awful and she needs to pull her head out of her ridiculously over sized ass.

Same with a cruise.  Plus she would have the excuse of not being able to leave the ship.

[Miss Chevious]

She’s bigger than her refrigerator. 

[QuinnInND]

That's not a healthy meal... 

[Hellga]

Hm.  That breakfast looked good, but is it really part of the 1200 calorie diet?  Or is her baby steps going to be so baby, it will be 5 pound loss a month?

[Smoothcoat]

She lives with him.

Was she eating mashed potatoes...with eggs?

Planet Fitness is back!

[Hellga]

She is a mountain next to her friends!  

But kudos to her for heading to the gym.  Maybe she is really ready to turn her life around.

[3girlsforus]

Why do these obese people go to the gym??? TAKE A WALK!!! You don’t need equipment and trainers and weights etc. 

[Concerned]

She’s very tall. The countertop was below her waist line. She might be six one. That why the agility despite the 689 pounds. She’s like a female Justin.

[Azubah]

Okay, she's tall.

[QuinnInND]

She's really tall!

I think he wants a yardstick by which to measure her progress.  She could easily tell him she could only lose 40 lbs, when others have done so much better, but he wouldn't know.
