littlebennysmom May 23, 2019 Share May 23, 2019 (edited) This is my first time watching any of the Assanti brother episodes -- holy hell, what a trainwreck! And I think Stephen Sr demonstrates where Jr got his nostrils and horrifying behavior. Geez, the way he went off on Justin after the phone call with Jr was straight up horrifying (I think it goes without saying that Jr's behavior, legs, mange head, as well as Justin's deserted hobby shop that's GOT to be some kind of drug front is all horrifying).

I used to put pee pads under the litter box because my elderly cat (who died recently😭) used to manage to pee half in the box and half out of it most of the time. I have no idea why he does anything. 4 Link to comment
Honey May 23, 2019 Share May 23, 2019 Well I learned something new. It only takes 1000 calories to maintain my body eight. I had no idea that's how it was calculated. The Dad's accent completely cracks me up, and I love how the CC even shows "Youse" Just like he says it. Like "Youse guys drive me nuts!!" 1 6 Link to comment

CrazyInAlabama May 23, 2019 Share May 23, 2019 Steven married some woman named Stephanie, who has a little girl. I understand that Stephanie is some kind of internet person.

There was a great book on weight loss put out by Prevention years ago that I used when I was trying to lose weight after pregnancy. If you are very inactive 10 calories x your weight is the formula. Maybe if someone is immobile it might be 7-9. if you are very active then the multiplier is 20. I think they had a chart that showed activity levels from 10-20. Hope this helps you find you can eat more than 1000 calories. 2 2 Link to comment
