I just re-found it! It’s called “Marriage Material.”

Yesterday I fell down a rabbit hole on youtube and found a short film about a very cute redhead who proposes to her boyfriend wearing nothing but a guitar, and when he declines, is shipped off to “yenta’s school for brides” or whatever it was called. I watched, horrified. I was horrified at the fake-Jewish references,

You put your body through a year of trauma

Eh, nevermind. 

As someone who has travelled that way one million times since childhood, I was like...what, people don’t know this? But really, why would they. 

I ate a LOT of “nursing cookies” (aka chocolate chip cookies with oats and a little brewer’s yeast) during that time, and gained not an ounce. That was the only thing I truly enjoyed about pumping. 

At the time I was pumping, personal pumps (I had one) were not supposed to be used by more than one person. A hospital-grade pump is a different beast altogether.

I have only seen snippets of the show, but I remember when the winner was a woman who came out for her last big reveal so thin that people went silent. Edit - Rachel Frederickson is her name. She lost 155 pounds in SEVEN MONTHS which is shocking. 

The first blonde woman to host was Caroline Rhea, a comedian. The second was Alison Sweeney from Days Of Our Lives.

oooo that’s fabulous! It totally makes the hunt worthwhile when you find something awesome like that!

Hey! A thread I can sort of contribute to! I too have shifted through a lot of sizes this year and am thrifting because for the first time in a long time, I can. Today I stopped by a local Goodwill and found a black jacket from Anthropologie and a blouse in a Mondrian-esque print! 

Her husband’s ex-wife. Sounds like a classic case of Nightmare Ex, ratcheted up several levels. 

Those kids’ albums are *definitely* the gateway drug into the more “adult” TMBG albums, for generations of kids! Like mine :-)

There are legions of actors/tv personalities who dine out for life on far, far less. 

Why must we be cursed with these children.
