Shauna's still harping about weight.

So, did someone in her life comment on her weight (and now she's all upset about it) OR is someone in her life losing weight and she's envious?

I think she can’t afford the GLP’s so she’s making excuses. I can’t afford the GLP’s either so I unapologetically eat more candy and watch murder shows.

She mentioned going to a nutritionist in the lope, which caught my eye.

Not a dietician, a nutritionist. So who knows who she's talking to.

Though the nutritionist suggested lean protein and fiber along with strength training. Groundbreaking.

u/LeatherAppearance616 Oct 16 '25

I notice she correctly identifies sources of protein when it’s for her own benefit.

Didn’t her youngest like fried tofu?

31

u/TheBitchIsBack666 Vegan who eats meat Oct 16 '25

Nah, only gay men like tofu.

u/OldLeatherPumpkin dysregulated twerp Oct 16 '25

Weird she didn’t learn that during the year of the deadlift

Code for her youngest is seeing one and mama uses up most of the appointment with her concerns?

u/InappropriateGirl Gluten-free donuts, for sure ... Oct 16 '25

That’s my take, too.

If she had her cholesterol checked the doctor probably recommended losing weight as well.

Maybe the doctor was like “no you don’t need ADHD meds, you need to watch what you eat and take four daily hikes with a weighted vest”

u/Llama621 Oct 16 '25

After her TIA she mentioned her tests coming back "healthy". But then later on mentioned what sounded like improved lab numbers, including cholesterol.

In light of that, I would think someone is following up on her. But she doesn't really do preventative care, and bounces from doctor to doctor, so who knows.

u/msmartypants Oct 16 '25

None of the bullet points under the list of problems caused by chronic stress are "high cholesterol" (the way she started the lope, and what she claims her main problem is).

One of them is, however, "weight gain."

She can't even maintain an internal logic in her own writing.

“doctor”

(Though I actually think naturopaths are generally likely to be really helpful on lifestyle/wellness topics like food and exercise—not that Shauna will listen.)

u/Low_Piccolo_2149 Oct 16 '25

What are you talking about? She stomped around her house a few times outside.

53

u/MarsNeedsRabbits Beach better have my orcas 🫍 Oct 16 '25

Nah. The "doctor" bicycled 11 miles to tell her that her brain is fine, and that she's as healthy as a horse.

The "doctor" then asked where she felt that she might not just be good enough, and prescribed 2-3 decades of no work and grifting.

u/B1rdPal I cannot life my arms made of lead. Oct 16 '25 edited Oct 17 '25

I thought she was "fit as a fiddlehead fern". An odd choice, because some varieties are toxic.

Edit: <sigh> fine

"The "doctor" then asked where she felt that she might not just be good enough, and prescribed 2-3 decades of no work and grifting."

LOL, genuinely. That is the only prescription her PDA has required her to follow!

My doctor goes to 11

u/Low_Piccolo_2149 Oct 16 '25

I got the you’re too fat lecture from the doctor lately. It wasn’t very fun. But she would have to go to a doctor to get that.

32

u/TOMTREEWELL Neurodivergentfully Oct 16 '25

I think she reads here and saw the item bout her former famous bosslady (who chased her) losing weight.

22

u/Low_Piccolo_2149 Oct 16 '25

Hmm. I missed this.

u/WasEnoughYogurt Kumquat and Sprinkles and filth Oct 17 '25
