Jackie giving fries and milkshake to her son offended Vanessa and she compared it to someone bringing liquor to an AA meeting. She asked her sister to never bring anything to her house.

At her therapy session, Ashley revealed that her father passed away from diabetes which was caused by his weight problems. This triggered Ashley into eating uncontrollably. The therapist advised her to write a letter to father, which would never be read.
Elsewhere, Meghan threw a fit while weighing herself and realizing that she was 12 pounds heavier. She finally visited Dr. Procter after six months of no visitations and was slammed by him for not following her weight plan.
