Running a bit late tonight Pounders - my eating habit has been a Boost and left over malted Robin Eggs candy from Easter.  No lectures please!

Anyhow, just catching up - looks like Mercedes gives the term "a family bed" a whole new meaning.  Feel sorry for her kiddo's, they look cute.  

How do you have leftover malted Robins eggs? Easter was weeks ago... 

[Ellie Godfrey]

Why are her blurry parts hanging out with little kids in the room?? FFS!

I’m sad that she forgave her piece of shit father.  Forgiveness is for the piece of mind of the victim, not to ease the guilt of your rapist before he dies (what was hopefully a painful death) and deservedly goes to Hell!

Exactly my thoughts. 

Ew. A dying abusive asshole is still the asshole who abused you. You’re not compelled to give anyone who was an abusive pos to you any semblance of forgiveness or comfort in their dying days. That’s for yourself. Not them. Fuck them.

And, oh yes, she sits that big tub of ice cream down a few inches from her exposed crotch and opens it.

So, like, as someone who is (somewhat) new to the lactose intolerance side of life, I usually get a little drool at the corner of the mouth when I see real dairy ice cream being consumed but after that? Not tonight. 

[KateHearts]

"I don't have to deal with anything when I'm eating."

SINCE WHEN IS THAT A THING?

Kids in bed, ice cream served... all within centimeters of her dirty vag.  A new low.

My 14 1/2 pound little dog died last Thursday when I took him in for a dental.

(((((hugs))) for you, @Kid 

I'm sorry sorry.

[cmpbl]

That's a good idea, give your kids a bunch of ice cream at bedtime. I couldn't imagine having to sleep with her. Why can't she either get a sofa bed or put bunk beds somewhere?

How in fuck do these women find men to father their babies?

Some guys love to have sex with fat women. SMDH

[Kid]

When I was attending OA, a lot of people in that room were survivors of sexual abuse by a family member. So this woman falls right into that paradigm as have many of the people on this show. It’s almost like,  not only do you use food not to feel, you use fat to make yourself unappealing.  Not understanding, of course, that the sexual abuse had nothing to do with enticing somebody!

Aw, I miss "The Little Couple."

[Minivanessa]

@Twopper, I'm so sorry you lost your cat. They leave pawprints all over our hearts, don't they? 🐾

[Viqutorious]

I’m really pulling for her, she seems so tragic and her kids seem like such nice kids.

Hi Pounders!!!  I may not be very snarky tonight.  My 14 1/2 pound little dog died last Thursday when I took him in for a dental. So seeing Nico’s cute little face tonight (thanks, Curly Girl) was food for the soul.

So very sorry. I remember watching the night I had to put my horse down last year. It does steal the snark. ((Hugs))

Omfg eating family dinner on her bed 🤮 

The one she bathed on earlier. I guess the open crotch is the centerpiece.

Hi all. My eating habit was poor tonight. A Hot Pocket, some ripple chips and a bowl of Neapolitan ice cream with chocolate syrup for desert. It was good, though. 🙂

Dis not good situation.

I'm going all the way and predicting medical transport.  

[pinky33]

Anyone else think that ring near her mouth was a piece of ice cream? I kept thinking "omg, do you not feel that ice cream on your chin??"

That bed looked nasty. Those poor slaves  kids.

I'm getting my dinner ready to take upstairs and looking round the kitchen for something sweet. to round out the meal.  Not.a.thing.  I'm going to have to go back down and put some peanut butter cookie dough in the air fryer (yes, my friends, you can air fry cookie dough). 

[elly1517]

I never realized til I lived by myself for the first time, as a broke grad student in Philly, just how expensive food is...and just for myself! I can't even fathom the cost of how much food it takes to sustain that body.

I, too, have noticed this. This is why having sex with children and innocents is worthy of castration, and/or other painful punishments.

Not that I’m recommending the serving suggestion, but as someone who refused to give up dairy, try beano. It really works

You can make a little gif of that when you get tempted or feel sad you can’t any any 😂

Flesh eating bacteria..that's a first

Apparently the bacteria didn't have as big of an appetite as she does. It didn't seem to eat that much of her flesh.

[Twopper]

I am guessing 756.  I never can tell how tall  these people are.  

My eating habit tonight was pork loin, some mint jelly (not sugar free) instead of the usual pepper jelly, sweet potatoes with sugar, butter and cinnamon,  and steamed broccoli with butter.  Dessert was 3 mint chocolate milano cookies.

Have set DVR to record this plus The Amazing Race.

Sad to say, I can practically sing that one by heart. I must have been traumatized.

I still laugh out loud when they make it sound like these folks just happen to "call Dr Now" out of the blue.

How does she not get that this is wrong as hell? How?

Btw, I’m going with 742.

Is that the same Blanket of Invisibility we saw a few weeks ago?

It died from bloat.

Not too good.  My elderly kitty died unexpectedly over the weekend, and I am depressed.  Fortunately, I have only emotionally eaten some PF milano cookies and some lime sherbet.

I need this to be either an inspirational story or a complete train wreck to distract me.

Sorry to hear about your kitty @Twopper; my 13 year old cat is in the "pet hospital" right now with pancreatitis - she did a bit better today, but prognosis is very guarded for her. I'm sorry for your loss - since this has started my eating habit has been non-existent or flat out bad.  I too find Milano cookies QUITE therapeutic though.....

This one looks like a train wreck in the making. {{{Hugs to you too}}}}, tough week for our furry pals 😞

[Arynm]

She is sitting there naked, with just a shower cap on, and her poor kids have to get her dressed.

[fonfereksglen]

Who knew timing change was such a hassle!  We are just crabby for 24 hrs.

Buying in bulk.

or possibly rationing but more likely the first because they are malted robns eggs.

Mercedes, basically: "I couldn't make my appointment on account of rain."
Me: "Hi, long time listener, first time caller from RAINCOUVER."

I am, but only for the sake of her poor children. Her daughter should not have to bear the burden of her mother’s choice so young. 

[ams1001]

"I'm their only parent."

Uh, what about the dad who comes and takes them to and from school every day?

[cmpbl]

For her kids same I hope she succeeds. Her daughter is sweet.

[FormeryHeavyJ]

Her "command" of the English language is hurting my head.  I cannot take this anymore.

Quote of the night.  My biggest fear is she doesn’t fall . . . 

[FormeryHeavyJ]

Oh that poor van.

[String Theory]

Terry's MIA????  What a surprise.

Run Terry, Run!!!!!

Looks like another "journey" in the back of the van where of course she's SCARED!  Missed the beginning - where does she live?  Her brother is a saint.

[Splashes]

Van trip!
