What kind of apple please? I want to try this. 

It was a Gala apple.

[Callaphera]

The one time "Allen and I" would have been the correct choice and she says "Me and Allen".

I'm sorry - it looks like she's got a panty liner strapped to her head.

And there’s my wine snort 🤣

I prefer wine to meds.

As someone who just came home with another case today I heartily concur.

Same!

[Caoimhe]

Oh no Allen, stop with the cheating!

[aliya]

A Michigan Cornish pasty. When I was a young bride in Ann Arbor, my late husband used to beg me to make these. I never learned how - though I'm sure I could do it now. His mom was from the UP and our son spent summers between A2 & the UP, so all I heard was "Why don't we have pasties?"

[MsVixen]

Allen's "cheat" didn't sound that bad.....

The winners of tonight’s less guess the poundticipants’ weight are @ThereButFor and @QuinnInND who tied with a guess of 650 for Allen and @Pepper Mostly who guessed 585 for Vianey; she’s a wee slip of a lass!   What have our prescient Pounders won?

• Your very own extra large pizza with all the toppings of your choice, to be consumed in one sitting
• A side of fries with that, because, why not?
• A set of shocks and struts for your vehicle
• Front trusses, back trusses and crotchal area trusses for any extra lumpage you may have
• A special folder with a finder feature for you to store your important papers
• And, as always, the admiration of your fellow Pounders!

No onion RINGS!  Tragic.

[Ivylady]

So...how do we think Johnny and Junior got home? Do we think the aunt sent enough money? Or did they scrape up their own money? 

Of course he's cheating. 🙄

I have been doing IF for over 2 months now. So far, just skipping breakfast, but that's huge for me as I was always told breakfast is important, and being diabetic, they beat u over the head about skipping meals. The thing is, when they say eat 3 meals and 2 snacks, your body is always processing food, and since the ADA says its OK for a female to eat 175 gms of carbs a day, you've always got carbs in your system. I've reduced meds and working on getting off of them by doing low carb/semi keto most of the time. I want to do OMAD, but am afraid to do it at work.  I think I should start with a longer window and then work on shortening it. I'm losing weight, so this craziness is paying off.

Good for you! I do IF 2 or 3 days a week, by eating lunch, skipping dinner, and then eating again the next morning. That way you sleep through most of the fast and I've found that it's really not that difficult. Also, limiting my carbs - and the carbs I do eat are unprocessed, like beans and berries, etc - really keeps me from being hungry and craving foods.

Until I see spaghetti, of course.

[mmecorday]

I have never been handed a shopping bag full of food at a drive-thru.

[Minivanessa]

Oh Lord. The "once a week fast food cheat" and he hopes it "doesn't mess up my progress." 

The stupidity, it burns.

[Azubah]

Oh, she looks thinner.

[cmpbl]

How much did they gain?

[Suzywriter]

Pink tv! Pink tv!

I love Gala apples.  Are they as dangerous as grapes and oranges?

The things that strippers wear on their nipples!   I'm going to stand in the corner, now....

I'll join you, because that was my first thought, too. (Though I have heard of the food item, it's not something we say around here. I did, however, used to pass a strip club every day.)

Scales won't lie for you cheater boy!

WTG, VNA!

[Wanda]

Those fast food snacks will kill ya every time

[cmpbl]

She did awesome!

[Minivanessa]

Wow. She's rocking it with a 68 pound loss, but he's lagging with that 28 pounds. Drive thru cheat day is not a good look on you, Allan.

[Kid]

She did well!!!  He did not because he was cheating.  If she was a little smarter she would figure that out.

They make pretty awesome pipes so I guess they could be a gateway fruit?

[Colleenna]

Did Dr Now call here "Vienese"?

 I thought it sounded like a new mayonnaise  spread : Via-naise. All grease based.

Wine and the odd evening snarking with my fellow pounders keeps me cheerful.

[CrazyInAlabama]

Way to go Vianey!      I'm so happy for her.

Bet Allen's cheat day is at least two or three days a week, not one.

One is delicious, the other might have tassels that you can spin to the beat.

Another wine snort. And seriously, did this dude just order half a burrito at a drive through, or do I have end-of-the-school year exhaustion deliriums?

I hope not.
 

[Wanda]

Could tell she hit her goal the minute she walked in. 

[DEG9]

She actually looks a tad livelier, slightly less depressed. Him... cheater, cheater, fast food eater!

[Callaphera]

What is with the headbands appropriate for the 3-and-under set that she keeps sporting? At least this one wasn't a bedazzled panty liner.

[Minivanessa]

You did hear that. I wonder how big the burritos are at that place.

[cmpbl]

I hope she makes enough progress to get that apron taken off.

Spaghetti really hikes my blood sugar, but I have had a little rice. The difference now is, I measure it out whereas previously, I'd have a bowl of rice w/stuff on top. 

[parrotfeathers]

If he'd get a haircut and shave he could drop 5 pounds easy.

[Concerned]

It makes sense to do their surgeries at least a month apart so they can assist each other.

As well as healthier in her face.

[mmecorday]

Yeah, Allen "got sick." Allen got coupons and went to Wendy's.

I needed a glass to get me through this show. I have already had my daily allotment, but this girl needed a boost. 

[Wanda]

Oh man. Allen got sick? There better not be a black screen of judgement that he dies in this episode

[Kid]

She is killing it!!

[Ivylady]

482? WTG, Vianey!

[Minivanessa]

Wow. She's at 492 pounds on surgery day. That's a hundred pounds down!

ETA: Or, 482? I wasn't watching the screen and may have misunderstood the voiceover.
