biggest loser - '09

I think Bob is one side of the scales and Jillian is the other. Together they even out. I like them both. I remember when Jillian left during Season 3 I think? Well, that show sucked. Big time. I missed her.

I like Jillian. I think I'd like Bob, too, since we really don't see it all. But, overall I'd prefer someone like Jillian working me.

But, that's what is so great - folks who hate that then they can route for Bob.

I did see on an interview that they're looking for another trainer...although they said they're not getting rid of Jillian or Bob. So, that should be interesting...maybe 3 teams?

{{me, too}} walking away for my water bottle.< /p>

so far this is a much better show than last week.

sort of felt sorry for Mike's (brown shirt kid) brother, Max.

Pink shirt daughter looks like she hasn't lost any more weight. Did you notice that they didn't show a full veiw of her?

If you look at it not as blue vs black, but rather as Bob's original team vs Jillian's original team, then perhaps it makes sense. Throw all the weigh-ins, get rid of all the ex-Jillian people, and go into the singles competition with enough Bob-bleheads to take out Tara and the other remaining Jillian folks.

Well, this apparently isn't the strategy either -- so I think they're simply incompetent game players. I appreciate emotional players, but they need to be thinking long term and not week-to-week.

This was definitely more of the tear jerker show.

I thought it was interesting the the blue-boys blew up at Jillian and won't work with her, but still hand her their shirts to hold.

I want to be Tara when I grow up. I'm 100% behind her.

Brown shirt dad did good this week. Wonder what happened to Tara? She has really worked her butt off.

To my surprise I don't have a favorite anymore. The blue shirt cousins are trying to redeem themselves. I saw that Jillian had Filipe's shirt.

Tonight's show didn't suck.

I felt bad for Brown Team's brother. Hopefully his brother will inspire him to lose. I was surprised that their Mom was fit and attractive. Usually, in a family of large people, the Mom is large too.

It was amazing at how far all of the contestants have come since their first day.

The girl on the blue team ate 2 Cookies but they didn't give her time to anyone....did anyone else notice this?

You are right. The only one that held her hand up was the pink shirt lady.

Bigbaby, where have you been? I don't see you posting on share what you ate.

If I was Tara I would have smacked the lady that ate the cookie. grrrrrr. She was so close to winning the 10K!!!! She inspires me, if a 200 lb chick can run 13 miles, why the heck can't I? lol.

I'm ready for them to break the teams up and go at it individually.

      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!

      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.
