biggest loser - '09



Recommended Posts

Jaime - question for you to ask Dan - ask him if the trainers (Bob & Julian) tries to influence them on who to vote off? Just curious.

Bob especially generally tells his team who to vote off.

Daniel (this season - Orange team) told me Vicki watched herself the way she was portrayed on BL and needed therapy because of how much that show skewed things to make her look so evil.

I find that difficult to believe. We hear this all the time from the characters who the public doesn't like. They manipulated the footage! Other people were bad too!

First of all, who cares if other people were manipulative too? Two wrongs don't make a right. Secondly, it's not Pixar. They can only work with what you show them. If you didn't do it, it's not on film.

Btw, that "it's not Pixar" quote comes from a reality star I've met who was on The Amazing Race. :eek:

You know, now that you put it that way, I would be pissied as well. I know my competitive side would have kicked in and I would have lost it.

Plus, I know me. I tend to bottle things up for awhile. However, when i finally lose it, I BLOW, then I'm back to normal quickly. Add in the adrenaline from working out and I can see where that episode could come from.

I understand that to a point, but what was to keep Sione from approaching her? I mean, by then he had already given Jillian attitude and pretty much said he didn't want to work out with her. When she chose to take him up on it and work with all the others, he threw a tantrum.

He can't really expect to have it both ways...

It wasn't Sione that blew up on Jillian, it was Filipe. Sione just went along with it to side with his cousin.

I don't get how Ron and Mike can feel so stabbed in the back when the week before Ron tried to talk everyone in to sending Felips hime. Guess its ok when Don Ron does it:thumbdown:

I hope, hope that next week Ron is gone. I think that Kristen was smart not to eat and I do believe that Tara tried to get below the yellow line.

I know a bunch of you are arguing about Sione, but you have to admit-- he looks AMAZING in the after video!

I think she should have kept Sione, if only to play the game. Sione and Filipe would have had her's and Tara's back until the finals, and the 4 of them could have gone all the way.

Thats what me and DH were thinking would of been the smartes thing for her to of done. But oh well

What I didn't get and maybe I have forgotten something but wasn't Pink mom originally on Bobs team? Laura said she'd been with her from day 1 so that had me totally confused. I guess after seeing her send her daughter home I would of had a hard time trusting her versus making an allegiance with the cousins

My two cents worth

Sione had to go! What a cutie though. He's really not the "bad" one...although he supports his cousin, so by association he's a whiny baby. That's why I tell DD to keep watch of her friends - you'll get associated with that THEY do. Same here.

It was a no-brainer for the game sake and Laura's sake who she should keep, but I was worried because these people tend to vote really dumb.

Sione is gorgeous, but those boys have some female/male issues. Maybe it's the culture, but they don't respect women. I think that's why Sione is so PISSED because he keeps losing to Tara.

Where's poor Filipe going to be now w/out his cousin? What temper tantrum will he throw this week?

I'm so SICK of the WOOOOOOOs from him. Just shut up, dude.

How so? Sione is Tara's biggest threat. In the game aspect, you wipe out your biggest threats and move on.

Plus why not break up a team when given the chance? Now the only 2 teams are Ron and Mike, and Tara and Laura. Good move if you ask me.

I know they said Nicole had the 2nd biggest pertage of weight loss behind tara bit have they said who it is or was other than her. I know Sione was her competition in challenges and all and I assumed he was 2nd on weight loss but I hate assuming and can't find it on any of the biggest loser pages when I google. If Sione was 2nd I wonder who it is now.

Just curious

      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!!
