She's from Pineville, LA, and the half sister's name is Nona?  Did I get the sister's name right?  So the mother had three kids in foster care, and after her 2 or 3 years in prison instead of trying to get custody of her current children, she remarried, and had more kids?   

150 by 9, 229 by 12.    The father was such a jerk.   How sad to have the brother die in her arms.    There is nothing that Desiree or anyone else could have done to stop that blood clot.    

3 kids in foster care by the time she ( Destiny)was 4 yo 😢

Whatever orange stuff is in that bowl looks disgusting

I hate macaroni and cheese.

I hate that. But I hadn't noticed because I'm too busy here.

So your piece of shit dad who said you weren’t even his kid and who walked out on you and your siblings when you were a child died and you were devastated by that.  Honey, he should have been dead to you long before that.

Cue Lola telling her to write him a letter.

It looked like she was cooking it in a pan full of grease.  It definitely wasn't lying flat in a skillet.  

I don't know how to spell the sound I made at reading that.

[Splashes]

Ah good this is going to be another episode with aggressive cuts where they cut it in the middle of the sentence

She eats so delicately with her pinky out. And then there’s her shoveling hand

HA, I knew it! I was sure she was the first transgender patient

I think Chay was the first

I think it was Nuna. They showed it when she first appeared.

I'll just leave this here. Fortunately, I can have all the Cadbury eggs I can scarf down.

Tonight is a good night to watch this with today being the start of Lent.  I went to a hospital office today and they had a scale in the bathroom.  Lordy, Lordy.  I decided to give up junk food and sweets (which I often do for Lent).  And I figured since I'm going that far, I might as well just get rid of the carbs, too.  Carbs is not part of the Lent thing cuz there's no way I can give them up entirely, but the rest I won't cheat on if I'm doing it in the name of the Lord.  The show is going to be a good re-enforcer.

About a month ago I quit shoveling in the carbs. I'm down over 10lbs. I'd kill for a bagel but it's just not worth it.

You are here by banished for such heresy!

[Wanda]

Yup. Husband just walked in and right back out as he observed his wife doing something that’s unspeakable in his eyes. This happens every Wednesday night. He’s like a dog that goes to the door in winter 10 times/day, each time thinking it’ll be summer. Gonna get the same answer to the question, “what are you doing?”

Oh yes, absolutely. Now where the Hell is Pepper Mostly with our BINGO cards?😄 We're gonna need expanded cards with all these checks!

[Snarkastikate]

Gotta admit I don't see where this one is going folks.

What was her reason?  I missed it.  

Because she thought she looked like a woman already, tried on some wigs and thought she looked so beautiful as a woman...so she just went with that? Nothing wrong with wanting to look or finding yourself beautiful but to change your gender based on that, in a small, likely fascist, already homophobic town...uh...

Oofff mmma went to jail.

She said for shoplifting, but I’m guessing it was drugs.

I realize that she has one of the saddest backstories ever, but did it need to take nearly a quarter of the episode?

Wait for Dr. Now's first visit. He usually gives us some clues!

Probably for a broad range of criminal activities.

 Or, shoplifting in order to get drugs

[Twopper]

Hi! This is the first time I have been able to do the live chat.   My eating habit tonight was 3 oz of salmon, Kale salad with poppyseed dressing and craisins, and sweet potatoes with butter and sugar.  Not Dr Now approved I know.   

I  hope the WLS works for Destinee and she gets the therapy to deal with the loss of so many people, especially her younger brother.  Because it is Ash Wednesday, I don't quite feel up to my snarky self so I hope I really like her.  So far she is okay.   Nice looking house, not lazing around in her birthday suit, looks like the bed has sheets and is made up.   

[dreadfulLeigh]

I wonder if she have to move being only 4 hours away..

[hoosiermom]

Ok, I like GOOD macaroni and cheese,but just a little.

[umgoblue]

STOP THE BUS....WAIT FOR ME...I'm here, Pounders!! 

My eating habit tonight is three crackers and a peppermint with lint on it from the bottom of my grandma's pocketbook...dinner later, I guess.😏

Is "reached 300 pounds by high school" on the bingo card? 

How about "doesn't know how to handle long car trip/plane ride"?

[Miss Chevious]

Good evening fellow Pounders. Am a little late, had to stop at the drive through. My eating habit tonight is a Filet-o-Fish sandwich. It’s Lent, y’all! 

[sainte-chapelle]

This...this is sad....I'd eat too. Blood clots are no joke there was nothing she could have done.

[Julyolo]

Guess weight @ 643.

Thank you- I was trying to figure out why she got THREE YEARS in jail for shoplifting.

They live in a trailer, but at least it looks clean and neat.

As the daughter of a mom with substance abuse problems I can see a lot of physical similarities between Chasity and my mother.  Keep in mind that Destinee said that her mom was only 16 when she had her and Destinee is only 27 so chasity is a whopping 43!!!!  

[Guest]

I love that Destinee has posters of herself plastered to the wall in her house.

welcome. It's a blast if you can keep up!

No shoes. check.

[Miracle Maxie]

Mama’s earrings can  double as Destinee’s dinner plates.

How about "reached 300 pounds by age ten?

[umgoblue]

She made posters of herself...ALL.AROUND.THE.HOUSE!!  Wow.

[chickenella]

Omg those earrings!! Is anyone wearing shoes?

[CrazyInAlabama]

I find it very hard to believe the mother was sentenced to three years in prison for shoplifting.   

Poor Nuna, that suitcase looks as heavy as mine does.     I'm hoping Destinee really embraces Dr. Now's program, and is a total success story, and doesn't get Lola for a therapist.     If Lola pulls her "write a letter" routine, then I'm going to start singing "I'm sending a letter to Daddy" from Whatever Happened to Baby Jane.

43?  She's only 5 years older than me!

Weight guesses?  I'll say 678

I haven't eaten in 4 hours!!!

An empty stomach is going to immaterial, my friend.

This better go faster or I am switching to the real housewives of nj.

I've given up on watching. I listen and type, and satisfy myself by the occasional glance up. 

[Azubah]

Does it seem odd that Mom, Densitee, and Nuna are all from the same place but all have different accents?

[ShortyMac]

668.5...

Um, are you sure you didn't also have some grapes and yogurt with those crackers like last week's poundticipant? Hee! 😀

[Concerned]

I’m glad I’m still in the 600s. Pull out quote.

[Snarkastikate]

I'm always stunned when I see them drive.   She's glad to be in the 600's, hmmm.  But she's also shocked.  Yeah we're not.....

Holy crap, she's the same age as me!
