Can you belive the diffrence in them. I taped it for I hope it will inspire when I get lazy.I want one of those cut out pictures so I can see how fat I was before.

Stand it in front of the fridge.Would not look nice there but maybe it would help keep me out of it.

I know I saw it - don't they all look fabulous! I was just thinking if I'd get my head out of my ass and work like they did then I probably wouldn't need PS when I'm done. I want one of those cutouts too !

Fridge box, or colored paper, and overhead is all you need. Trace a picture of yourself, put the image on the overhead (to your height level) and then paint it up. No need to be detailed, I don't imagine, just have the measurements right. A silhouette would be fine for me!

Really, for me, I plan to never look back. I try not to look at the size 10 pictures of myself at 17, so why would I look at the size 26 pics of me at 32? I am just looking ahead to the size 14 (goal) me in the future...

Who's rooting for Suzy? I sure am... I think all three of the finalist are amazing, but Suzy's the one! (I have to confess, I'm friends with her in real life, but still... she's kicking ass!)

Go Suzy! :)

Not to be negatitve, but if my full time job was to exercise and diet, it might have been a whole lot easier to jump start a weight loss and life change. They have all done wonderful and it definitely is not just becuase they were on the show, they all wanted to change and have made it happen.

I am rooting for suzy too, and watching the promos for the finale, it seems that even though they blur the image of the "winner", I have seen clearly female legs in high heels. Hmmmmm....

I'm rooting for Suzy too, but really I think it will be Matt who wins - he just has had this extra driven determination through out the whole show, I just have a hunch.

And yes if I didn't have a full time job and a family life and the money & access to a personal trainer I too could do what they have. I was going to apply but there is no way I could have taken off from work and let the bills pile up. It is a wonderful opportunity they each were blessed with and they all made the most of it - kudos for them! I want to know what happened to that big black guy MO last season - anyone heard how he was doing?

I noticed that too! Of course, I want Suzy to win as well. She's so cute! Our luck, they showed us that little clip and it has nothing to do with the winner. Argh...but, we'll soon find out.

I agree with you all about the 24/7 dieting and exercising they do on the show and it not being "realistic"... however, the reason we don't know who the winner is yet, is because the last three have been at home in their "real life" situation, as the final test to see who wins. Meaning, who will win because they were able to maintain or lose while living their real lives again... Just wanted to put that out there so we aren't all focuse on how "easy" it must be living on the ranch and doing nothing but eat right and exercise. The true test has been the last three months these people have spent at home with their normal stress, anxiety, work, family, whatever... I still say, Go Suzy! :)

Candysmooch,

I just went to the website and Mo hasn't updated his results in a while. You can check here http://www.nbc.com/The_Biggest_Loser/contestants/wherearetheynow/mo.shtml

I thought I heard that some of season one's contestants will be on the finale this week. I hope to see MO, he was my favorite from season one.

My favorite from season two is Dr. Jeff. I broke my heart when the voted him off. But he is doing great and I am looking forward to seeing him at the Finale this week. Matt drives me crazy crying all the time! That boy needs an antidepressant. Yes he looks great so far, but stop crying on every show! Seth and Suzy have done great jobs but I lost interest when Dr Jeff was voted off.

Good luck to all of them!! And may the biggest loser win!!!

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
