X1000. Unpopular opinion, I know, but J annoys me more than S. Such a 🐱. (Apologies to my pounder friends’ cats for the metaphor. Don’t take it personally, furry friends)

[88Keys]

Steven's legs and feet...he looks like he has cloven hooves.  He reminds me of Torgo.

[QuinnInND]

I don't want to know who's using those pee pads on the floor. 

[cmpbl]

Steven is high as a kite

[OoogleEyes]

Oh My Gawd.....PEE PADS???

All at once, quite possibly.

Is Steven living in the same complex Angie was in? It looks the same.

• Hi Pounders!  First time on real live chat!  Mod Princess-Purrs-a-Lots' image of the cat with the remote and snacks really did it for me--you are my peeps!
• My eating habit:  blackeye peas w/saltpork, and homemade skillet cornbread.
• I am Fresno, CA Armenian, but my husband has southern roots by way of Morristown NJ.
• I am totally familiar with biscuits with "white" gravy, we call it "country gravy" here, better with pepper.
• Is tater tot casserole better with meat (ground beef) or not.  Inquiring minds want to know....
• Thank you all for the company... husband and grown son occasionally tune in.. they loved Mercedes' "no salad zone" comment but really think i'm totally weird.
• The show does better with wine for sure, but it's a work night for me....
• Carbon Cat himself loves steamed asparagus, melon, and low-salt crackers of any kind.
• Dr. Now might approve, but not the vet!
• Love to you all!

Dad is kinda smart. He's driving a hearse already.

[CircusPeanuts]

My pounder friends! I had to run an errand and could not start on time, but I wouldn’t miss this episode for anything! Bring it, Assanti Brothers!

[ams1001]

Gained weight and it "doesn't make sense." Here we go.

Hi and welcome!!

Is it just me or does the vehicle that the dad is driving look like a hearse? A foreboding omen perhaps?

It's always fun when they talk about how hard they've worked on Dr. Now's diet and it turns out that they're put on almost 50 pounds.

"What are you eating?"
"Chicken, mostly."

But was it fraaaaed?

The only way these Nobelists can communicate is by yelling hateful shit at each other. 

Justin has no interest whatsoever in losing weight.

Dad had to get over the dream he seems to have that his sons will ever  be able to tolerate each other for one second, or that they will ever have a date, much less than get married LOL.

Dad will never be a grandfather. Hopefully the bloodline will end with this gang of three.

By the way, Justin is posting on Reddit saying the show manipulates everything and he's very unhappy with the newest episode.  Says he only talks to Steven when the show makes him and that most of what you are going to see tonight is false.  Make of that what you will.

Expand  

That isn't really possible, unless the poundticipants have been lying (which many of them do at least sometimes) or have been asked/coerced to pretend and/or tell lies. The producers do engage in some creative editing at times, which can be misleading, but otherwise we are seeing actual footage, not animation -- so what does Justin expect us to believe?

It could be that Justin means that Steven was telling lies on camera, which is certainly possible and would be easy to believe.

But Steven is married, and has a step-daughter -- so dad is a step-grandfather. But I agree it might be best if the bloodline ended.

Why is he just now getting the diet?

Welcome to the Thunderdome Carboncat! Wow, black eyed peas with salt pork AND homemade skillet cornbread, I just had to respond to your post! One question: where's the collard greens and pot liquor? Hee.

My eating habit is angry I left the Cheesecake Factory without eating CHEESECAKE to get home in time. For this.  Pee pads and less than rapid weight gain.

Dear Miracle-Gro. I would pay you to show me how to keep tomato plants alive and actually have them produce tomatoes.
