When all three are like that, it's probably in the family. Genes.

Trolls are everywhere, even on LP.

I don't think they are overweight, healthy females with pear shape is what I perceive. Take a good luck around the good old USA and you can see many, many folks morbidly obese. Kind of sad to me, sort of like it is a trophy to some of them and could care less about what the excessive weight does to their bodies.

Might be they are genetically prone to a heavier set. Considering the parents ages, the

daughters may well follow to their ripe old age. Changing what's obviously healthy for

them so far by caving to the 'preferred' weight of some people by starting NutriSystem

might just throw them totally out of whack. I say don't change a thing. They look very

happy and happy affects health too.

It is a low blow.

The one thing about social media these days is that it's real easy for someone to sit behind a keyboard and spout crap about someone they never met. All of a sudden keyboard commandos become experts on people they don't even know based on a news article and a picture.

Kinda sad.

The remark about the daughters is a low blow G. Has the thought ever crossed your mind that they could have a medical problem which would prevent them from losing weight? Perhaps they have tried dieting failed- happens even to the folks on The biggest loser who gain all their weight then some back. I guess what l am saying is ...Live let live.

Now would be a great time to...Repent

.

No one here could possibly know what seeing the photo of the elderly Fry couple above does to me.

In the other photo, the three daughters are huddled around them like Gimme Gimme Gimme .

I'd sign up each of the daughters up for Nutri-System.

(like you have room to talk, Groppo?

well, no, but . . . um. . i . . . um.. . .duh. . .

WOW!! Congratulations to the family.

Observe their ages and ask yourself, Could I possibly live another thirty years? We are all living longer than we expect too. Just another thought about taking the thirty-year payment plan.

Personally, I will be choosing the Lump Sum. I do not think that my body has another thirty years left in it.

I could be wrong.

As this Mega Millions jackpot rises to higher levels than the Annuity does look better.

An elderly couple from Scotland are celebrating a 1 million (US$1.5 million) lottery payout that continues an amazing family run of Lotto luck.

Peter Fry, 90, and his wife Mary, 86, landed the huge prize in the Lotto Millionaire Raffle and have been hailed as Scotland's luckiest family. The couple, from Bo'ness, West Lothian, shared the win with their three daughters, Margaret, 64, Janet, 59, and Isobel, 57.

The family play together, purchasing five lines twice a week,... [ More ]
