I'm going with 705.  Mrs. Formerly Heavy J is clocking in at 718

You wanna re-phrase that??

[CringeWatcher]

How y’all doin’ pounders! I’m late to the party but here to remind you to adjust your wigs, tuck a drumstick or taco or triple bacon mushroom melt into a convenient fold or your preferred personal locker, and let’s go! My eating habit consists of not-refried black beans from my instant pot made into crispy chimis in my air fryer. And of course 🍷

looks like this might be a good one since it’s already up to 2 pages. Must go back and read now...

I’m distracted and sad. A step-sibling, with whom I was raised, always overweight (but nowhere near a candidate for this show, lol) and not one to take care of her health, is in the hospital after having two strokes. 

So sorry to hear that. *hugs*

Wow.  How bad was that other guy that Jessica dumped him for a blob?

James K after Lisa left him?

[sagittarius sue]

I'm going with 770.

[MsVixen]

Before everyone starts wondering how he got Jessica, remember that she has three girls which could be a deterrent to other men.  I couldn't deal with a lot of step children in the beginning of a relationship.

I'm sick of all these Poundticipants blaming "fast food" for their enormous weights. They HAVE to be eating more than fast food all day long. "Fast food" seems to be the go-to boogeyman of this show. 

[sainte-chapelle]

I feel like I missed something, what was wrong with his childhood? Dude should have stuck to the oil fields. I have friends in Alberta who make a huge amount of money working in the oil fields.

[umgoblue]

Interesting that many occupations of the morbidly obese (500-600#) is either fast food or truck driving...makes sense given the food choices, but still.  Definitely a potential risk factor.

[FormeryHeavyJ]

THREE pizzas and sides.  Unfreakingbelievable

[Hana Chan]

We've got an obvious case of depression here. Lola is going to have her hands full.

Jessica is lovely, but she's another enabler. As a nursing student, she knows better.

[Psycho Suzy]

Mom..... yikes! And he got so big that they sent him away? I mean how does that work? When my son broke his elbow and had to have metal plates inserted, we didn't send him away.......and I thought that parents were supposed to do with it whatever they had to do for their children but I guess you just send them away when they become inconvenient. Good to know. This poor guy, it sounds like nobody wanted him. No wonder he was depressed and ate all the time.

[Julyolo]

Enabler award goes to Jessica!

[Jeeves]

Well, this guy's back story includes that he had JOBS. This is a good thing. And, yeah, the bar here is low. Sigh.

Also, thanks, everyone for the hugs and support. You rock! 😍

[ams1001]

She has to bring me food all day because I constantly need it. 

No, no you don't. And she wants to be a nurse?

Another blob on a bed who found a fiance

And she is very pretty!

 I’m hoping for the best. And a non-dysfunctional relationship.

[Pepper Mostly]

Another one who "loves food". 

All he has to look forward to is Jessica bringing him food. His only joy. Another one who's never heard of a goddamn crossword puzzle. 

[Brooklynista]

Jessica just brought in 3 pizzas?? There's some money here somewhere she's gunning for. Her aim is clearly to kill him.

[Gbb]

Mom’s  mushmouth and bad grammar is already wearing thin. 

[elly1517]

Eating habit is roast beef sandwich. Got a migraine tonight so laying here with an ice pack strapped to my head and talking to my favorite peeps...there was enough to snark last week; I hope this guy does well

[Wanda]

He better succeed because I want to smack him and shake her 

[Hellga]

Girl, if you come eat the same crap in the same bed laying down on your stomach, you will join him in the immobile morbidly obese land soon!

[poeticlicensed]

Pizza in bed. Gross!

[Kid]

I am having no patience for this loser.

[FormeryHeavyJ]

His daughter is sucking down sugar in a bag.  Keep drinking that crap and you'll be on the show in 15 years.

[umgoblue]

So she gets in the bed next to him to eat dinner...so sweet...so romantic.. WTH.

[Pepper Mostly]

"I'd be willing to do anything to change the way things are right now". Well, except stepping away from the pizzas and fast food. Jesus Christ. 

[sagittarius sue]

Looks like Jessica's putting on the lbs also.

I love fast food. I eat it more than I should. I'm 20 pounds underweight. 

It ain't the fast food, people. It's the fact that you order the entire Extra Value Menu in one go for a single meal.

And the kids STAND around the bed to eat with them.  SMDH

Cilla is boring me.

Why would you subject your children to this?

So sorry. Migraines suck. Try rubbing the areabetween your left hand thumb and forefinger (I’m a fellow sufferer and it sometimes helps)

[cmpbl]

I say 689

Oh, I'm sorry about the migraine. I hope it goes away ASAP. 

[Splashes]

Evening pounders! I forgot it was wednesday...

He loves money, but he loves crap fast food more. Loser.

It's also the quantity. When we order pizza for dinner, we get 1 pie for three adults and there are always at least two slices left over. And the toppings are always veggies.

One of the things I did or myself to help things get back under control is giving up all soda, including diet sodas. I haven't had any since December and drink water, unsweetened iced green tea and seltzer. Really does help a lot more than I would have thought.

Some people have very distorted idea of what healthcare professionals should do.  "But I want to help people" (aspiring student words)/"but they didn't do what I wanted" (patient words) - makes me cringe every time.

It's so boring that weight guesses are already starting! 😂

[mmecorday]

Ugh! The brat on the care.com commercial. You don't have any dimples, kid. You're pointing to your cheeks.

[navine]

good evening!  I'm going w/over 800.

[WhitneyWhit]

That bed is not of this world to handle what those two put it through at meal time.

Good golly, what watching this show has done to our collective standards for human behavior 🤣

[sainte-chapelle]

I ate pizza and I am washing it down with a bottle of wine....don't judge me 😉

[poeticlicensed]

This show is really starting to.bore me. The only things I look forward to are

The trip to Houston

Dr. Now calling them on their shit.

Pounder bingo.

[libgirl2]

I'm thinking Jessica's  "nursing school" is really just a certificate program.

It really does make a difference, cutting out the sodas. I also drink plain water or sparkling plain water. Sometimes I'll put those sugar free drops in it. Just doesn't make sense to waste calories on your DRINK.
