Who clean’s Prince’s litterbox?!

 I was thinking the same thing. Hell, who cleans Janine??

[dreadfulLeigh]

Did she, though? Did she really?😒🤔

[Miracle Maxie]

I want a spinoff of Prince and Cupcake and their yellow brick road away from their worthless sub-humans.

It's time to add some Fireball to the diet coke!

Excuse me waiter, I'll have what she's having and make it a double! 😆

Capacious ! You're on a roll!! 😉

Nah, just doing me! Its a family trait. My dad had a wonderful colorful way of speaking and  an awesome turn of phrase, I seem to have inherited it. My son does it too. In third grade he wrote a story and described a storm as a "raging maelstrom". He's super witty and quick and a wordsmith and a half.

Her cat is so over her.

Ye ah, get up and open the cat food! 👿

[Snarkastikate]

Prince the Cat is thinking "what a pathetic whiny bitch my owner is".     

[poeticlicensed]

She is never going to walk again.

I just thought that too!

The cat is do unmoved by the tears.

My doggies get all nervous and kiss me  if I cry.

Sometimes I fake it for the kisses.

[Midnightblue]

That was weird. They just jumped to "...she is getting surgery"? What was the weight loss? Strange editing.

[Brooklynista]

Who is she performing for with these tears?? The camera crew? 

[Guest]

Why is he doing this surgery when she's still not walking??

[dreadfulLeigh]

I truly want to know, for her to lay it out and articulate, what exactly she thinks she’s doing that is “trying so hard”.

[Kid]

I hate that phrase, “big girl.”  They think it makes being morbidly obese sound better.  Plays right in with their denial system.

Right? She's going to get a blood clot.

[Carboncat]

Why does Dr. Now seem so soft on her and her whining and excuses?

It's easier to take the show while drinking it.

For the longest time I thought Dr. Now had a picture of an elephant on the cap he wears in surgery.

Why does it seem Dr Now is slurring all his words tonight? Is he, too, drinking Fireball and Diet Cokes to deal with Janine?

Seriously, I could barely understand a word he said as he narrated the surgery.

IKR? I was expecting/hoping he’d tell her that if she couldn’t walk by surgery time, he wouldn’t do it. 

[Midnightblue]

I have those same sandals as her SIL. They are from Kohls.

I wonder if he’s trying to remove every obstacle so she can’t hide anymore. This show isn’t about her losing weight. It’s getting her to walk.

But Mrs. Slocombe would like her pussy!

I was shocked for a moment, until I remembered the show.

I actually met John Inman at a book signing in Ann Arbor years ago. He looked just like on the show, even after all these years, and was so personable. 

[7EasyPayments]

I think I saw a McNugget fall out when they removed the stomach. 🍗

[Miracle Maxie]

A month in rehab? Poor Prince!

[honeywest]

You can’t get her walking “again” if she hasn’t been walking.

[Caoimhe]

Now we'll get the next round of screaming and crying and refusing to get out of bed.  I really can't see her being part of the five percent. Dr. Now is being way too easy on her.

Edibles. Don't smell like booze.

Didn't one lady have a chip bag stuck in her back fat and Dr. Now pulled it out?

She’s not just performing for the camera; she’s convincing herself, too. 

Wait, they glossed over her weigh-in????

Too much time ha see been spent on the whimpering. Not enough tape to show the weigh in. 

[PrincessPurrsALot]

He wants her to walk so she can walk herself out of Texas and he won't have to see her again! 

[dreadfulLeigh]

He really did surgery on a person who never walked despite more than 6 weeks in a rehab facility?? I just...no words.

You're not really crying either, lady.

She's not quitting crying, that's for sure.

They realized there's only a half hour left. 

[navine]

sorry, but Dr. Now needs a speech therapist

This is so true! You cannot fool a cat. (I should know -- I have seven of 'em!)

I wish Mother of Cats sounded half as fierce as Mother of Dragons.

[cmpbl]

Prince might enjoy his time at the cat hotel. Hopefully they are playing and loving on him.

I'm having the same problem--he really is talking much more than he normally does - I'm having difficulty keeping things straight - she got the balloon taken out, she managed to lose more weight BUT she's still not walking and he still went AHEAD with her surgery?  Is she back off to the rehab hospital where she STILL won't start walking.

For years I never watched "Are You Being Served" when they had repeated reruns on PBS.  Then I did, and grew to love it.  It was often hysterical!

As others have already pointed out, Janine loves being supine in her hospital bed, being waited on hand and foot. Its as close as she'll ever get to luxury. She'll never be able to create a good life for herself with a career. She'll never marry a man who dotes on her. this is it. The forced kindness of people who are paid to take care of her. Its sad. 

I can't fathom how they're ok with destroying their bodies inside and out. Weight gain, diabetes, heart disease, lymphedemas, immobility, grotesquely stretched and sagging skin, infections, yada, yada. I just don't grok the lack of self-awareness and self-respect.

It has to be more fun than his time with Janine!

[DC Gal in VA]

That "Don't Mess With My DISCOUNT!" lady scares the crap outta me! 😆

Dr Now said she lost 47 pound.   Close enough to 50 for him.   I am shocked she lost after the balloon was removed.

I want to hug her cat. 

I still don't like her.  If she gets up and starts walking I might begin to change my opinion.   Or not.....

Yes, but it was Herbert’s. He ate the chips and put the empty bag in her back fat fold, as one does.

Some folks define themselves by their victimhood.

Eh, I’ll give him a pass. Assantis last week and now this hot whiny mess. I don’t think anyone understands how hard this is for him. Hehe.

Shoes !

Was she wearing them before? I didn't notice.
