S07.E10: Destinee's Story LIVE CHAT

[Wanda]

They always make it Dr Nows fault that they will die if he doesn’t just cave and give them the surgery they’ve in no way shown themselves to be ready for.

LOL- we're all talking about dishes and salad dressing and barely paying attention to the episode.

My husband literally starts falling asleep when Lola speaks.

Absolutely.  She has a  ASMR voice.  It's great for relaxing.  Plenty of YouTube ASMR videos if he needs some.

[umgoblue]

I would have bailed a long time ago, if I didn't have y'all to snark with!  And I even sped home to watch this paint dry. Snoozefest.  Thanks, Pounders! 

Cassandra...smiled?!?!?!  See what I would have missed?

She keeps saying "i have to get weight loss surgery today" like she thinks he'll do it right there in the office during her appointment.

She's 600+ lbs and more mobile than Whitney Way Thore.....  BAH HA HA.  Probably a better dancer too

Okay.... just saw the burlesque dance lesson.... I take it back.

[cmpbl]

 I don't think she's lost enough weight and I hope Dr. Now yells at her for wasting his time.

[Guest]

It's 9:36. My guess is that Destinee is never getting approved for surgery because I think she LIKES to be that weight. She seems pretty in love with herself, dresses sexy, and doesn't seem really affected by weighing 700 pounds. Which, you know what? Good for her! But it doesn't make for a compelling episode.

[Azubah]

I'm never thrilled when I lose breast meat as I lose weight, but I try to keep going anyway. I used to think about getting implants, but I'm pushing 60, and being the old broad with the big fake boobs is probably not my best look.

His time and ours. 

[Taleeya]

Has no idea what she wants.  Says she neeeeeds to get weight loss surgery at the same time saying she doesn't want to lose weight.

[mmecorday]

I really feel like I'm watching an extended audition tape tonight.

[dreadfulLeigh]

I just realized the time. I seriously thought there was less than 5 min left. This is dragging by so slowly. And we’ve only had 2 weigh ins  in how many months? Geez. This does. To feel like a weight loss show.

Who dresses like that for a doctor appointment? I mean, seriously.

[sainte-chapelle]

Oh STFU whitney

I know right. lol

[mmecorday]

"Cut me open right here, doc!"

[ams1001]

Calm down, little friend.

[hoosiermom]

Approved? Really?

[Azubah]

Santana is 1/3 the size of Destinee.

[Wanda]

Oh honey, the friends’ reaction is more than any single person in 7 seasons. Is this her audition too?

[dreadfulLeigh]

Her friend shows 100x more emotion than she did. Yay. Oh, fuck, 2 months, how will she do it!?

so maybe I'd have thought differently if I didn't already know that...?

I was late tuning in because of Wed night church.  I had no clue but the minute I heard the voice I thought transgender possible.  Gosh those clothes are awful especially at the doc's office.  Good thing doc had the sheet handy.  Good to see the very pleasant weigh in lady back.

[Miracle Maxie]

She would have lost the whole 80 lbs if she wore a different wig!

[Guest]

"Thank you for putting in the most minimal effort, Destinee. Your prize is surgery!"

When I started losing a little weight, that was the first place I noticeably looked smaller.  Mr. Judgy said to me (during a romantical encounter), “I think your boons are getting smaller.”  I said, “ummm....thanks?”

[cmpbl]

Just once I want him to cancel surgery because they gained weight.

Destinee may be the most delusional poundticipant yet if she didn’t expect to have to lose weight on her own. And that’s a pretty high bar to get over. 

Neither did Penny.  She is in with some questionable company.

[umgoblue]

Nooooo, don't give in, Dr. Now!!!  She hasn't met any of your goals.  Do we need this surgery for a  good edit/ratings?!

She looks like she fixed her hair and got a new dress and jewelry just for the doctor. 

[Midnightblue]

"Can I give you a hug?" Dr. Now...😒...suuure

My question as well. Did she just want to be on TV?

Yes.

[suev3333]

Dr Now's face during the hug...🤣🤣🤣😂

[mmecorday]

It looks like she's parked next to whatshername from last week!

I was at Bed Bath and Beyond and the scales they sell go up to 400 pounds, with one reaching 440 pounds (200 kg). As we get fatter, expect them to sell 700 pound scales.

What I'd like to see is a scale that's more than 12" wide. My chubby inner knees make weighing difficult.

[Splashes]

Did she actually lose the weight? I missed it.

[umgoblue]

😧 Can I give you a hug....

Now: Ummm (read:scared)...suuuree (I guess)

Edited March 7, 2019 by umgoblue

[Azubah]

"Can I give you a hug?"

"...sure" he said as he looked for the door.

[Julyolo]

I think we can officially say we just got punked by TLC. Or is that on MTV?

[dreadfulLeigh]

Does she onl have that one beige bra? That’s halfway up her back? I’m not one to quibble about a few bra straps showing, but geez girl at least get a black bra to match your dress. Or, better yet, a bra that fits. 

[ams1001]

She wants to be "recognized" for what work she does more than she wants to do the work to reach her goal.

Given her childhood, I suppose I can understand her desire for recognition, though.

[JudgeyMcJudgyPants]

God they are really following the same script every episode this season aren’t they?  I swear this is like the third episode of “we are going to check your weight they day of the surgery and if you don’t make the goal, no surgery.”  So tired of it!!

[DC Gal in VA]

Oh puleeze child, I am so sick of you trying to get Dr. Now to recognize your bullshit. You betta recognize and lose the same weight!

[Splashes]

What the fuck dress was that? A cocktail dress? Girl, you gotta learn how to dress appropriately

[CrazyInAlabama]

565, minus 103 lbs.   Way to go Destinee!       I think moving to Houston may have been traumatic, but I think it will turn out to be the best thing that ever happened to Destinee.        I think she can make more friends, and have a great life in a bigger town, like Houston.  

Month 10-502, minus a total of 146.   Way to go!     

That exchange about getting her appendix back was hysterical!     

Edited March 7, 2019 by CrazyInAlabama

[sainte-chapelle]

...long pause....sureeeee. 😂

[88Keys]

....did she just ask to keep her appendix?  And then equated body organs with babies?!

[Miracle Maxie]

Keep the appendix in a jar? Seriously? I just can’t with her!

[lazylump]

Keep appendix?  How many of us are typing/snarking furiously right now?

[Hannah94]

Holy sheep shit on a stick, she wanted to keep her appendix in a jar as a memento? Did I hear that correctly?
