I wonder how they can lose so much weight in a week too. I keep telling my trainer to watch it. They must exercise from morning to night.

Well, just as I thought my little Kae got eliminated last night. I knew they would do that. I felt so bad for her, but I knew she would get to her goal at home, so all is good. Did you see how amazing she looked?? She is truly an inspiration.

Yes, I was said to see Kae go too, but I think she has a BIG chance of winning the 100K.<

Did anyone see the Larry King with the previous Biggest Loser on? They had Matt on with his wife and new baby, anyhow, Larry asked how they lose so much weight. They explained that they work out for 6 hours a day on the show. Exercise is their job. When they go home, they have family, jobs, etc and can no longer work out like that and that is why they don't lose as fast and many gain back their weight. Matt had gained quite a bit, but still looked good. And his wife Susie (who he met on the show and she was 3rd place winner), she had gained too, but she just had a baby. She still looked good too.

I wish I could have a personal trainer to work my butt off like that. I just love seeing everyones transformation. Kae looked beautiful.

I felt so bad for Kae last night. I knew that they would send her home. Personally, I don't think that they should get to vote. I think that whoever had the lowest percentage of weight loss should go home. I bet they would work harder than they do because they wouldn't have their friends keep them in the game. I was so glad to see that Kae kept going with the weight loss. I knew that she would. I'm addicted to the show.

Seeing Kae get sent home really upset Neil. I love how he told them to bring it on ! Dude is on a serious mission now.

I didn't like him since he did that sabotagging (sp?) at the weigh in that one time. But yesterday I really respected what he did.

I agree, but part of me wonders if he just voted that way because he knew evryone else would vote for Kae and he wouldn't have to worry about it anyway. I don't know, but I wonder if he is just "playing the game" again. I would find it hard to trust someone who purposely gained 17 lbs to get rid of someone. Just my opinion.

I love the show too! Last night hubby and i were watching it and I was in tears when the spouses or signifigant others were on the other side the mirrors. The way some of the husbands looked at their wives, made me think, I want that. Don't missunderstand, hubby loves me very much and i know it, I just want to put that lil black dress on someday and wow him because he deserves it, and boy so do I !! Surgery date 1128, liquid diet not going too badly, turkey day will be hard:help: but i think i'll make it. I just keep thinking of standing on the other side of the mirror, in life, this is the beginning of my life and i'm ready. Look out world!!

On the biggest loser blog for the ones that are voted off, it says they exercise at least 5 hours a day. Isn't it amazing how the fat tones up. Most of the people keep the weight off after leaving the show, some gain a small amount back. I know 2 of the people who have been on the show and they live to exercise now, but they look great now!

I just do not understand how you can Water load 17 lbs, not to mention how dangerous it is. A little off topic, but, I think about the woman who died competing in the radio water drinking contest. In all honesty, before this happened, I had no idea that you could die from drinking too much water. http://rds.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0geu4tedERHLGAANd5XNyoA;_ylu=X3oDMTE5NjlydGY4BHNlYwNzcgRwb3MDMwRjb2xvA2FjMgR2dGlkA1BSMDE0Xzg1BGwDV1Mx/SIG=122c56c05/EXP=1195754974/**http%3a//www.nbc11.com/news/10817670/detail.html

OMG - I've never heard of such a thing!! That story was awful - I can't even imagine how the family must feel.

Do you think he could do it safely by adding salt or whatever to keep his levels normal?

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      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!
