I had to look that up. First hit was an article about how it's "the underappreciated paraphilia."

I've read up on transgender issues because I want to be an ally but I don't understand it. I'm trying.

[Colleenna]

How y'all doin? My eating habit tonight was a big old salad and a Weight Watchers Smart Ones Fettuccine Alfredo. 

I think she doesn't look as big because she's tall. Aha, the scale scene... yes, she's quite tall, maybe 6 ' 

[Kid]

Look at that line up sitting in the doctor’s office.  They all need a diet!

Autogynephilia

I really hope not or she is going to have a seriously bad time. Though given some of the problems shes had Im not sure shes gone through the legsl stuff to get name and gender sorted.

[Pepper Mostly]

"Emotional eater" needs to be on the bingo card too....

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

Tiffany ate them all!!😂

[Guest]

It looks like when Destinee went to visit her mother in prison she hooked up with one of the inmates who gave her those tattoos.

[Pepper Mostly]

So, she sleeps 18 hours a day and eats the rest of the time. What a rich life.

[poeticlicensed]

Oh she wants Dr Now to counsel her. He doesn't roll like that!

[Miracle Maxie]

Lies, lies, lies. The theme this season is lying to Dr Now about their eating habit!

[DC Gal in VA]

Okay, I'll say it: what is up with all the "ironically" spelled names on this show lately!? I mean, Destinee Lashee??? Sorry, but that shit makes my teeth itch.

[Snarkastikate]

Wants to have children?  Huh?  What's up with that?   If this "journey" is successful I'll be pretty surprised.   

[Midnightblue]

She keeps referring to herself as "gay and transgender" If you are male, and attracted to men, you are gay. If you transition to female and are still attracted to men, I don't think you are gay, correct? I am not trying to be dismissive or rude, asking for real.

Id be happy to answer any questions you might have (though here might not he the bet place because stuff moves so fast). I am trans.

Just now, Wanda said:

To be fair, he already knew he was gay, so maybe it just seemed easier to become female if he thought he already looked female?

Perhaps. Although, coming out as gay might have been the (relatively) easier option than first coming out as a woman. 

[Bronx Babe]

I'm waiting for the small dog.

Was that it?  I missed it.  

I think she needs to go to therapy before doing ANYTHING.  She's even admitted that she has some serious issues that she needs to deal with.  Dr. Now is spot- on in noticing that she doesn't seem that motivated to lose weight.

[CrazyInAlabama]

I loathe the mother.   Instead of getting her sons back, she started another family, and never looked back.   Plus, she has terrible taste in earrings.   

Please, someone buy Destinee some bigger tank tops before something pops out.    That's almost happened several times.      

Please get Dr Pimple Popper, and the Gin Fizz woman off my screen.   Can Whitney, and Jazz commercials be far behind?

She said she was going to get something to eat after her appointment. Let's see what she gets. That will be a clue.

[umgoblue]

I missed the beginning and wasn't aware she was transgender.  She looks great!  Besides her voice, I wouldn't have known.  I think the extra weight helps.  It will be interesting to see the changes as she loses weight.

It's Lashaee, darling. Don't forget the second "a".

That is correct. You would be straight. 

[JudgeyMcJudgyPants]

I can’t believe it took me this long to notice that she has her own name tattooed on her chest.  How fucking narcissistic do you have to be!!!

Anyone else know what the “YMOMB” means?  At first I thought is was a misspelling of “MYOB” and I was laughing and saying “No regerts.”

[DC Gal in VA]

Anybody else thought we might be getting a two-fer with the previews they were showing? The sister we saw in the opening has got to be at least 400 pounds herself.

[Guest]

What could YMCMM (prison tat on left boob) possibly mean? 

[umgoblue]

I need commercials so that I can catch up!

[poeticlicensed]

I dont think Lola is equipped to deal with all her issues.

Also she had so much turmoil, perhaps changing her identity was a way to try and change her life? If ever a patient needed immediate therapy, it’s Destinee

I am wondering too.....also not trying to be rude or offensive.

It's as fabulous as Twitney A Bore.....

[MsVixen]

Good evening, Pounders!  Coming in late because I had to get Mom into bed.

My eating habits are going to be left over Ziti and vegetables in about 10 minutes.

Destinee is definitely a transgender African-American woman!  She's the size of a barn but her hair and nails are perfect!  (No offense meant because I'm African-American, too.)

If she's trans and attracted to women, she'll call herself a lesbian.

"I'm a little disappointed I have to do a diet to start."

You're almost 700lbs!!!!!!!!! What did you think Dr. Now was going to do? Wave a magic wand, and boom, you're skinny? Lord...

[JudgeyMcJudgyPants]

Ugh I fucking hate White Snake!!!!!!

[DC Gal in VA]

Wait, what she's disappointed that she has to do a diet to start!? WTF?

And please get that annoying Hilton Gardens commercial ditzy ass woman offfa my teevee!

[Splashes]

Oh damn finally a commercial break and I have a cat on my lap now

[aliya]

All of these people know about Dr. Now but NOT ONE of them does his calorie diet, available for free at his website (no riding in vans or small airplane seats necessary).

What - she's disappointed she has to lose before the surgery? It's a major surgery, there are all kinds of tests. You can't just walk in and get the surgery. Jeez. Have they seen the show?

Yes she seems quite taken by herself doesn't she.  Very interesting.

I think she thought Dr. Now could somehow fix her emotional issues AND make her thin.  I don't forsee a happy ending here...

“Your money or my boobs”?  Or “your money owns my boobs?”   I got nothing outside of money and boobs *shrug*

Honestly, I wouldn't think she was male from the voice. It sounds to me like just a slightly deep woman's voice and, we've seen plenty of ciswomen with deeper voices.

No shit!!! It’s like, once again, a patient who has never seen this fucking show before.

I googled. "YMCMB is an acronym that stands for Young Money Cash Money Billionaires. It is used to refer to the artists represented by Young Money Entertainment and Cash Money Records, such as Lil Wayne and Drake, and their respective lifestyles."

That's Judy Greer. Did you ever watch Archer? She was Cheryl on Archer.

I'm going to go way out on a limb here and guess fast food, pizza or Chinese food. You know, a last hurrah.

I looked at those nails and asked myself how does she get her nails 'did' from her bedroom? 😄

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.
