They don't even take their dogs for a walk! She hasn't completely ruled out another child, and another pregnancy would most certainly mean more weight gain. She is not healthy, and isn't even trying and to me it's completely fair to point that out. We have pointed out her failure to protect her skin, why can't we discuss her overall diet and lifestyle choices? Throwing the word fat around does seem a bit mean, but lets be real for a sec.... she isn't mildly overweight, she's morbidly and uncomfortably obese. She's heavier than Bryan ever was, and posters from this board have been criticizing his weight without defence for years. Yes we are all women and tend to want to give hard working mom's a pass, but Katie has everyday all week long to meal prep and get her family on a better eating plan.

And with the amount they pay to eat out several times a week coupled with her kids clothing shopping addiction they clearly have the money to buy good quality healthy food ingredients to cook and eat at home. After seeing Katie's reaction to her young niece eating a healthy salad as though Katie were better and knew better? I'm sorry, but she is definitely fair game when it comes to her weight and lifestyle choices surrounding it. Her trunk is solid, she barely has a waist anymore and she's only mid thirties. That's the most dangerous place to store fat and if she doesn't do anything about it now it will only get worse because your metabolism slows down with age and I can't imagine how much more weight she'll gain if she continues her current diet with such a sedentary lifestyle and a slowing metabolism.

And even more interesting that she felt the need to have an entire conversation about it with Cullen on Twitter. Where was he? Surely they weren't sitting in the living room together at the time...

C&K: Pimple Poppers and Pot Maketh a Marriage Not

I wonder if she thinks he was smoking but he won't admit it, or if she just knows he was, and she wants to call him out on it because he's tired of it. Very strange for two grown adults in the same house to have a conversation like that on social media.

Skunks, dummy. They have kind of a marijuana smell. Weren't they talking about skunks recently?

Katie should absolutely keep her eyes on her own plate but I believe everyone should. Everyone harps on Katie but why not Cullen? He is living the same unhealthy lifestyle. I'm fine with criticism but I think it is over the top on here.

I think Katie was turning her head up at the fact Madelyne was smothering her salad with gaucamole (yuck!!), because I've seen her eat salads before.

Ugh, the whole marijuana tweet made me eye roll. Clearly you're fishing for comments or accusations against Cullen. Also, as someone else mentioned, I've smelled skunk at least once a month in the mornings and I have never seen one. Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it's not happening. She is so naive it's pissing me off.

I think them making an actual office is a great idea. I can 100% see how having the kids in the living room with him while he edits can be a huge distraction and time killer. And the kids do need to know that if Dad is in the office he is working and doesn't need to be disturbed, and when he's not in the office then he isn't working. Making this YT gig more like a "real job" is exactly what he needs. He also needs to put himself on a schedule. Like 9am is time to go work, then by lunch (or whenever) he's done for the day. I think it would help him tremendously.

Also proud of the fish tanks as well, he has really taken this seriously and i'm glad to see the tanks are thriving and he is doing research and is excited about things again. Cullen in general seems to be in a better head space since his hospital stay.

Cullen needs an office to help him with the 3 hours of work a day he has to do?

How is he managing to do that and a hobby?! Good for him!

Bless him. He must be so tired

Seriously, some of ya'll praise that man like you're his mama.

I just went and watched that clip about the salad and Katie and Cullen both were turned off by the amount of guacamole, not the salad. Jay even made a comment about how much she put on the salad. I don't think Katie was disgusted bc she was eating a salad, i have seen her eat lots of salads before. Just the other day in a vlog they were eating backed salmon (or some fish) and large salads. I love guacamole, but that much on a salad?? Yikes... I would have turned up my nose as well. And in terms of that salad being healthy?? I know avocados are "good" fat, but they are a still high fat food. Madi was still eating chips and cheese too, so all in all i'm not sure her meal choice was exactly healthy. Drinking soda too, all the JK kids were. Let's not pretend that Madi made her decision to eat what she did bc she wanted to be healthy. Chances are she just likes guacamole on lettuce.

Let's be real though, Cullen's 3 hours of work is probably 6 hours of work for him bc he's so damn distractable. So maybe moving into an office with less to distract him will make him actually do 3 hours of work in 3 hours. I just think it's a good idea bc maybe, just maybe it will help him focus on their channel and content more.

Oh, right. Because of the ADHD excuse that has conveniently spring up. If he has ADHD, then he had it before when he vlogged , worked full time, and came up with target ball projects. If he's incapable of focusing and providing for his family on a fumctional level, then Katie should be stepping up and working a few hours a week as well.

He isn't special, and isn't getting a pass from me. Neither is Katie. They are both incredibly enabled and lazy.

I don't think he's special either, i just think maybe the office will be a good thing. He has claimed to be ADHD since forever.. i have no idea if he's actually diagnosed, and I agree that katie should work outside the home, but we all know that's not ever going to happen.

I didn't make the comment to kiss Cullen's ass, i just think that someone who works out of their home should have a designated work space to help keep them on task. If i worked from home i would NEED an office space too keep myself consistent. Trying to get work done while your kids are running around playing, watching kids crap on tv, needing snack and drinks and just being an overall distraction is hard for anyone. Having a place to go undisturbed would be a positive for ANYONE who works from home. All i was saying is that it was a good idea, i'm not giving Cullen a gold star or acting like he's a genius bc he finally decided to make an office. He should have done it from day one of moving into that house.

Yes!!! I have been thinking the whole time, "How healthy could a salad possibly be at a Mexican restaurant of all places??"

I think it'll be nice for Cullen to have his own dedicated office away from the rest of their living space. But what was Katie doing while Cullen was having to stop editing to "parent" when he was working on the couch? If it's Cullen's job to edit, then it's Katie's job to keep the kids away from him. When my husband has to work nights, I make sure that my 3 year old is as far away from him as possible or we're out of the house completely while he sleeps during the day. That's my job, so he can do his. I think Katie expects him to be the full-time working parent, while also being a full-time stay at home parent.

I can see this office being a distraction for him though. And the placement of the desk is a hazard. He's going to go walking in one day, trip over those cords, and his desktop is going to come smashing to the ground.

I had that thought too. Is it so hard for Katie to keep the kids say, in one of the playrooms? Or outside? Long enough for Cullen to edit? Why can't she take the kids upstairs and let them play there while Cullen edits?

Pretty sure Katie does what Katies wants to do when Katie wants to do it.

When did Cullen get that desktop Mac? I've always seen them using a laptop.
