Biggest Loser



Recommended Posts

I do have a question that maybe one of you can answer for me. An unimportant thing and probably stupid but I am going to ask anyway. Kim made a comment about how she needed B as much as he needed her. How so? Is it a paycheck thing? Or just that she won't be on the show this season anymore? I don't get it.

I think she meant that because he is the last one on her team, maybe she would have to be gone for the remainder of the show. But I am not sure.

That is what I initially assumed as well. That very well may be what she means but she seems almost desperate about it which got me to wondering if it was something else entirely. :) Sure seems he needs her a whole lot more than she needs him. Of all the important things in life, I wonder about this....:biggrin1:

The trainers all seem a bit competitive with each other as well. She was also Jillian's Replacement last season so she is probably even more upset by the idea of her team not making it as far as Jillian's. Especially after Amy switched sides.

*RAVE* Still ticks me off that she couldn't apologize to Amy for lobbying to get her voted off before. I know Amy came across as a bit whiny in the editing of the show but Kim was in the wrong on that issue and should have apologized for getting involved with the "game-politics". I know I never would have trusted Kim again if she had been my trainer either.

I've watched the biggest loser since the very beginning, I am totally addicted to the show.

I'm glad Amy was sent home.

i agree. trainers are supposed to be supportive. what she did to Whiney - i mean Amy - was not supportive at all.

They are so fortunate to be there. They all are starting to look great. I want little Kay to win, but she is already small and will probably have to go home because the others will say she could finish on her own.

So true! I am not a fan of Kim's to begin with and that didn't help. Guess I just like Bob and Jillian and there has never been a place for Kim, who knows? :) The trainers should keep their opinions out. They are there to help them learn a healthier lifestyle, not play the game.

Kae is doing amazing! I am always amazed at her strength and dedication. I have to admit I am always disappointed when players give in at the food challenges. I am certain that $5k is very tempting, especially if you need it but given the real reason you are there, say no. I am so proud of Kae for admiting how tempting it is (money and food) but stands her ground.

Yes, that girl has some strong willpower... That donut challenge was disgusting.. I will never be able to eat a donut again.. (or until I can get that image out of my head.) My dh walked in when I was watching and it made him mad.. He said, look at all that food they are wasting and there are so many people that go hungry every day, shame on them.. But hey isn't most television/movies that way? What I hate is when on an action movie they destroy a fancy Lexus or BMW.. makes me mad.

Yeah, the issue with Kim aside, it was probably Amy's time to go. She really didn't seem to have her heart and body into it the way the others do. Ofcourse us viewers really don't have the best picture of what is going on there. Only what the editor's let us see. They could probably spin the clips on any of the players to look just as *whiney* as Amy did.

Even though I wasn't routing for her, part of me really wanted to. If only to show Kim that Amy could do it without her. But then again. Look at Amy's now pics - she busted out and lost 100 pounds without Kim or Vivian so I guess she still did show Kim and without the rest of us having to watch the drama each week.

Another Fan! They Are Amazing! I Don't Think I Could Ever Work That Hard. I Like The Way I Do It. I Can Handle The Half An Hour A Day Exercise.

I Also Watch Big Medicine On The Health Channel Which Is About The Surgery And Plastic Sx After The Weight Sx. Also Ther Is A Program On At 4:30am Called "i Lost It" It Is Only 30 Min Long And Features 2 People And Why They Got Heavey And How They Lost It. It's Funny, Before I Would Never Look At Anything Like That And Now I Can't Get Enought!

I can't stand Julie. All her whining. She won a car, got to go home, and can't lose weight. I really can't stand her. I love the show, but when they focus on her, I change the channel.

I agree with that. I thought Kim was wrong for that too. She said you should kick Amy off like she was saying me need bread. I would have been hurt too. How are you supposed to act after that? Had Kim apologized maybe they could have worked it out.

But then Amy was kind of doing the same thing to Kae. I guess they difference is Amy wasn't Kae's trainer either.

Exactly. By her lobbying to kick off Amy she basically sealed the cowboys fate of going home. It backfired on her. If the cowboy was still there the red team may have been better off.

I hate when the trainers get involved in the game aspect of the show. IMO they need to just train and step the heck back. Another thing that pisses me off is when people get pissed when a person actually plays the game. Neil comes to mind with his weight throw off. Its a game and there is a lot of money at stake. He tried to protect his people. Now he is proving everyone wrong and loosing double digits every week !

That's true Chris. This is my first season watching the Biggest Loser all the way thru. I thought that was weird too, they know this is a game. Whether you like Neil or not he's playing the game and still losing weight.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
