Popular Post Carboncat May 16, 2019 Popular Post Share May 16, 2019 Hi, fellow Pounders! I've been lurking for a while, but after Mercedes, and then Angie (!), I had to sign up. The show has been a late-night guilty pleasure for some years, but after I was off work recently for five months after major back surgery I've been snarking along with you. I originally found the poundicipants inspirational and touching, but the weekly shower-with-the-clear-curtain/close-up-of shoveled-breakfast/hour-long-road-(there's nothing to eat on the road but fast food--it's a no-salad zone all the way) the droning voice overs etc...following your hilarious comments is the best part of the show. We have an early west coast showing, but I will watch later so Mr. Carboncat can watch baseball. Can't wait for the Angie J. rewatch and the Assanti bros. update next week. It's great having other folks out there I can share this with, and I've learned so much...like, Tater Tot Casserole! 1 29 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/93430-s07e20-vianey-and-allens-story-live-chat/page/17/#findComment-5298430

CrazyInAlabama May 16, 2019 Share May 16, 2019 The reason we keep seeing Kate G. get her shows is the producer is her best buddy, and was the one pushing this dating show (for years on end), and I personally am hoping it has the lowest ratings ever for TLC. I bet Dr. Now did tell Vianey she would eventually get surgery, but I bet she wasn't ready to hear it. She needs Dr. Paradise, not Lola the Letter Writer to the Rotten Departed Relatives. I wish Allen would get rid of the beard, and I hope he and Vianey do well, and both succeed. 13 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/93430-s07e20-vianey-and-allens-story-live-chat/page/17/#findComment-5298439

For people who are used to lying down or sitting up in bed most of the day, yes, sitting in a car where there is no room to shift around or to stretch out your legs, can be very painful particularly for the joints, and can cause swelling which is also painful. Even for those who are lying on blankets or a mattress in the back of a van, it can be terribly uncomfortable.

I recall one woman who had so much scar tissue from previous surgeries, that when Dr. Now went in, he could not perform the weight-loss surgery. He had to remove the scar tissue, give her some time to heal, then do the WL surgery. But it was still done before end of episode.
