biggest loser - '09



Recommended Posts

I assumed Laura and Kristen didn't pull because of the brace Laura was wearing and Kristins "Medical" problem

It was so childish when they put the weight on Helen for staying with Jillian instead of the all mighty original bob-lleheads. I think she was well aware of what was going on.

Tara was due IMHO for a break down, shes been kicking but and outting up low numbers all the while knowing she ha that huge target on her back. Theres no doubt had she not had immunity last night she would of gone hime with her % of weight loss. I think she rocks.

Its Tara who makes me feel like I can do things my mind and body scream no to, while Kristin may of been the first female to loose 100 she does NOT inspire me to do anything other than PB

The ones who voted for Aubrey were stupid. We know the game playing is in tact but from last nights show all you could see was the bob'le heads grrrrrr

what is her medical condition? does anyone know?

and if you have a condition you don't get a vote as to who goes home in my opinion.......you lose that right.

that one really annoys me right now.

. But why didn't her and the purple pull a car? They were standing on the sidelines cheering people on.

I wondered the same thing. Maybe Luluc is right because I didn't see them put any on anyone's scale. I thought at first it had to do with their lost of weight, but purple shirt girl had lost almost as much as Tara.

They did have the sports bra on underneath their black/blue shirts when they got their original shirts back.

If it where medical then why would Ron pull? Sorry but IMHO he is really useless on the show. He doesn't even try to do the challenges. He is always whinning about I now I can't so why rush ect.....Everyone feel sorry for me.....Help me with the challenge.... Well I don't anymore. I stopped feeling sorry for him a long time ago. Ok done ranting about Ron:thumbup:

I just read on a website that said Cathy said in a interview last week that Kristen had some herniated discs in her back . Also it said that there was a deleted scene that showed

Felipe reconciling with Jillian. I guess they delete a lot of things just to make the show interesting.

Daniel, the orange team member this season who was the heaviest the show had ever had, works at my Gold's Gym! He and his best friend David live in my area. Daniel has lost some serious weight! I've picked his brain about all things Biggest Loser, and he's really nice and loves answering my questions. I talk to him every time I go up there, though he only works 3 days a week. I told him about the Lap Band and surprisingly he was very stoked for me, and asked me lots of questions about how it's working for me and all that. Cool kid!

Oh, and I mentioned that I thought Bob was gay. Daniel told me that Bob is gay, but so is Jillian!!! :cursing:

That's so cool that Dan is a good guy - he seemed to be a good guy during the show, and I was definately rooting for him.

It doesn't surprise me that Jillian is gay - I don't see her strong personality putting up with some of the typical nonsense that can happen in guy-girl relationships. None of that "I'm the man, I'm the ruler" crap...:cursing:

My DH got on my nerves this morning...can ya tell?:tt2:

That is so cool (about Dan). We all knew Bob was but Jillian surprises me.

I'm straight but don't put up with that crap. My DH says all the time that he never deludes himself on who truly wears the pants in this house. :cursing:

Daniel told me a story that I just have to share with you guys.

The Gold's Gym is in the same parking lot as a McDonald's. Daniel was working one morning and walked over with $2 in his hand to get a large coffee. That's all he planned to order. He walked in and the manager was there ringing him up and told him to get out. Refused to sell him "this shit" because he didn't need to be eating it if he wanted to lose weight and become the Biggest Loser! :tt2: Daniel was like, "Umm, I just want a coffee dude." The manager says, "Oh OK then, here ya go, on the house. Good luck!!!" :cursing::w00t::)

That's why I was pissed this morning - I don't put up with that crap either, and he knows it...suffice to say I had an apologetic message on my work phone and my cell phone this morning after I left the house. I made no bones about my being pissed and why!:)

Wow! That's right, they're bringing back the elimated next week, should be fun and interesting. Also, next week looks like ripple dad has some medical issues. We shall see.

Re: Bob & Jillian both being gay... NOT SURPRISED!

I'm glad Aubrey is gone, she was hateful. You could just tell she's super jealous of Tara.

Tara, I think I love you! OMG, I'm really glad she showed her human side this time. I know I usually can't stand it when contestants get all wet eye, but this time it struck me. I think the true reason it took me so long to get on her bandwagon was she always seemed so cold to me. I'm also glad and I hope she realized now that Laura is a good person to keep around, and not the albatross she felt like she was in the beginning.

It's heating up folks! Lots of competition down the wire now. It's only going to get better if they bring back another hot competitor.

      It's been 10 long years! Here is my VSG weight loss surgiversary update..

      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
