for me-I doubt Id like Jillian in real life-shes just such a bitch who seems so fake and carrying a whole lotta emotional baggage of her own that i wouldnt appreciate her bringing to my life.Plus she hip poses too much-she always ALWAYS is posing and it drives me insane.Yes we all know it shows off your toned body well when you thrust the one hip to the side but geez enough already.

Could I put up with Jillian in real life...NO.... But I have been at the gym wanting to quit and I close my eyes and picture her in front of me yelling at me until I finish what I started. LOL. I like Bob but he just doesn't scare the crap out of me.:tt2: Where Jillian would make me cry and I would then stub up and show her I could do it and more! If I am doing something and get mad and cry I know it will get done one way or another.10_9_209.gif 7_5_139.gif

Jillian has a "favorite" every season, and I think that Tara will be her favorite this season. Was that Laura or Tara that was puking doing the run for the keys to the gym? I was also wondering where was the Water.< /p>

It was Tara.

I realize I haven't watched too many seasons, but is there usually this much puke? :tt2:

Pukes usually reserved for weeks 1 and 2 usually near a treadmill.

What I'd love to see and hear is Lauras face when she watches the episodes of Tara talking her down. Its easy to forget Lauras playing catch up where she was at home for a month, most of the others who were home are weaker as well. I totally get that Tara doesn't want to go home, but would it totally be Lauras fault if she did? The other contestants see Tara as a threat and if she hadn't been winning immunity earlier in the season might of gone by by then. I guess todays my be nice to the under dog day. Laura did loose more last week

Tara is still my favorite but if she doesn't let up on the Laura bashing, she's going to go off that list. Laura was easy to disdain at first but she really tried to step it up in the last episode so she's redeemed herself a bit. The question is, will she be able to keep it up? Remember, the wacko (I've already forgotten her name) did good one week but then fell apart again the next week.

IMHO, Tara has forgotten that she and Laura got to the point TOGETHER that they decided to try out for the show...no one on the show really has any justification for the 'holier than thou' attitude - or would that be 'fitter than thou'?

Everyone there decided to try out because they were at a crossroads and decided to DO something rather than whine about it any longer. For that, I applaud them.

Laura isn't my favorite, but I think that's because I can see some of my weaknesses in her...and I agree with other posters that if I had Jillian yelling at me for weeks on end, I'd be pushing too!

ROFLMBO at the Jillian hip pose comment from alatina - now that you mention it, she DOES do that a lot!

I love the show - it has made ME rethink some of my food choices and I relate to some aspect of most of the contestants' lives.

Jillian is mean but quit bashing her poses. She has a HOT body and once my body gets hot again, I'm gonna show off too! When I used to have a hot body, I didn't appreciate how hot I was and was always focusing too much on the flaws. When I was a size 4, I wouldn't wear a 1/2 shirt because my tummy didn't look like a washboard. GAWD, what I wouldn't do for that body now. Actually, I am doing for that body now... lapband followed by PS once I reach goal.

hip poses - i got lots of hip to throw out...LOL

i thought 125lbs was a LOT of weight - till i hit 200lb. i had a warped sense of body image.....not that i want to wear a belly shirt - but w/40 around the corner; i'm more comfortable in my skin now, than i was @30.

i am more inclined to show my curves now than i was before i gained weight....a few good undergarment pieces don't hurt either.:sneaky:

If I looked like her, I'd be nekkid 24/7. And find reasons to go out all the time.

I have no idea what is considered appropriate for someone my age to wear BUT I know what I intend to wear when I look like her. Tina Turner impressed me when she first turned 50 well I plan on rockin forever once I get there. I spent half my life trying to gain weight and the other half trying to loose. I will appreciate it when I have it again. I won't care if someone thinks my legs are to thin because they like thicker, I won't care if they like bigger boobs, when I hit goal I will reek of confidence - the snob.............well thats the plan anyways

      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.

        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.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
