Biggest Loser-Week before Finale
Tuesday, December 1st, 2009Did you miss Biggest Loser? Don’t have a lot of time so you would be happy with the highlights of the show? Here is a 2 minute video recap of what happened
Rebecca Goes Home
Tuesday, November 17th, 2009This will be updated soon
Dan and Shay Go home
Tuesday, November 10th, 2009OMG! From the highest of highs last week to the lowest of lows this week.
Red line? Why the heck do we have to have a red line this week? It is hard enough to have one person go home each week but to have to send home two?
All through the Biggest Loser tonight, knowing that 2 people would be gong home, was awful. Worrying about who would go home. Hoping that at least one, if not both, would not be our favorites. Only to find that of all the people that could go home that it would be that they were our 2 favorites
Our Two FAVORITES! UGH!!!
I know that some people will argue that Dan has been on the show more than anyone else but Dan won over our heart last season and we were so surprised and elated that he was brought back to be able to finish what he started.
Dan went home way too early last season and, although he did well at home, he never got the opportunity to deal with what got him to the size that he was when he first came on the Biggest Loser ranch. When he came back this season we already loved him and we were hoping that he would end up being one the finalists this season.
Though Dan managed to stay on the ranch a lot longer this season we found out tonight that our hopes of him being one of the finalists was not to be. With his falling below the red line Dan had no second chance, no pleading his case…..he just went home.
I was upset about Dan going home but also worried about who was going to end up being below the yellow line. We already had lost one of our favorites.. would we lose another one too?
We were hoping and praying that the worst would not happen.
But it DID!
Shay, from the moment you stepped off of that bus and on to the Biggest Loser ranch you won over America’s heart.
Watching you work so hard to attain your goals despite what all life has thrown at you was amazing.
Every time you worked out- we were rooting for you
Every time you tried to win a challenge- we were rooting for you
Every time you stepped up on the scales- we were rooting for you
Life may have handed you some lemons but you turned your life around and you made some major lemonade :0)lol
As sad as it was to see you go we were absolutely FLOORED when we saw you on Jay Leno and we saw hoe much weight you have lost.
WOW!!!
You have far surpassed what many would have thought you would do considering your size when you left the Biggest Loser ranch. You may not have been on there as long as you would have liked (or as long as we all had hoped for) but you obviously were on there long enough to learn what you needed to learn.
We saw the recent pic of you with Jillian and I have to say that as much weight as Dan has lost that he, and all of the other contestants that have gone home, better watch out cuz I think you have a VERY good chance of winning the home prize of $100,000.
Shay and Dan, you have done such an amazing job. You have lost the weight. You look AMAZING! You have changed your lives.
Reach for the stars and never look back!

Biggest Loser Tracey Goes Home
Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009What can I say about this week’s Biggest Loser show? For us, it was a dream come true. Believe me, there was a lot of cheering going on here and I am sure, by what I have been seeing and hearing, that the same was true for many other homes as well.
Tracey found a place in our heart when she collapsed the first week before she could even get on the Biggest Loser ranch. We worried about her while she was in the hospital and hoped that Moe could keep them there so that Tracey would have the chance to utilize the Biggest Loser facilities and to gain the necessary knowledge she needed from Bob and Jillian.
If we had known then what we know now we probably wouldn’t have (Ok, we definitely wouldn’t have) been rooting for her so much.
It seemed that right from the moment that Tracey came on the Biggest Loser ranch that she was all about ‘the game’. I understand that, to a certain extent, many people are. But, she was so obvious about it. She lied and she backstabbed people that trusted her.
THAT is what I don’t like. And as soon as Tracey started doing that…..we kicked her right out of that place she had been in inside our heart. Well, maybe not ‘as soon as’ , we did try to give her the benefit of the doubt. After all, maybe it was panic because she wouldn’t be able to exercise like the other contestants were.
But, with one dumb, or mean, move after another we found ourselves beginning to truly dislike Tracey. From everything we have seen and heard, both online and off, it seems that Tracey brought out a lot of anger, and for some it seems she brought out hate, in many people.
The more that we watched Tracey the more it seemed like we had another Vicky on the show. She made us want her to have to go home NOW! But week after week she managed to win challenges and stay above the yellow line. Even when she fell below the yellow line and we were certain that this was our moment, that this was going to be the week that Tracey actually went home… she always managed to stay.
When Tracey fell below the yellow line we were certain that with how she had backstabbed so many people on the Biggest Loser ranch that she would be sent home without hesitation. Yet Liz didn’t follow through on her promise to ‘send Tracey home the first chance she got’ and Moe stepped in and gave up his opportunity to stay on the ranch. We couldn’t believe that Moe took the fall for Tracey.
Well, as the weeks wore on I had nightmares of Tracey being a finalist and actually winning the prize money- UGH… the HORROR! I hate the idea of someone that lies and backstabs winning the money and being someone that people should ‘look up to’
We found ourselves wishing, and praying, that Tracey would go home. In our opinion, there were much more deserving people on the show that were dealing with the issues that got them where they were.
Well, we FINALLY got to see Tracey sent home! Actually, after how Liz didn’t send Tracey packing as she promised, and how she then turned around and became best friends with her, our opinion of Liz became lower and lower. We began wanting Liz to go home nearly as much as Tracey.
So, to have both Liz and Tracey face going home was an unexpected treat after so many weeks of seeing these two still on the ranch while people that we liked were being sent home one after another.
This was, without a doubt, one of our favorite Biggest Loser episodes this season.
How do you feel? Did you like Tracey? Were you happy or sad to see her get sent home?
BTW, after Biggest Loser was done did you happen to catch Tracey on The Jay Leno show? We couldn’t believe how much weight she had lost. Since she didn’t seem to deal with the issues that got her on the Biggest Loser ranch in the first place how did she manage to lose so much weight?
There has been talk that she was using diet pills while on the ranch- why else would she lose so much (enough to stay above the yellow line) when she couldn’t exercise? I can’t imagine that the Biggest Loser would allow that as it is in their rules that you cannot use diet pills. But, it does make me wonder if that could be how she managed to lose so much after she went home. I am not saying she did, I am just saying that it makes me wonder.
And did you notice that she still is all about ‘the game’? When Jay asked her how much she weighs now she wouldn’t tell because she doesn’t want the other contestants to know how much weight she has lost
Sorry Tracey if the truth hurts but I got to say that I am glad you went home. The Biggest Loser ranch is a much better place without people like you there. I also must admit that I am hoping that you don’t win the Biggest Loser at home prize. People that would step on those that they call friends just to get to the top are not people that should be rewarded for it.
Biggest Loser last week and tonight
Wednesday, October 21st, 2009Hi All.
I am sorry that I didn’t post last week. I had every intention of doing so until the last few minutes of Biggest Loser.
I really enjoyed the show and from how everything was going we were so SURE that Tracey was going home.
I don’t know about all of you but Josh and I are fed up with her being all about ‘the game’ and how she has stabbed every one in the back.. but that’s ok because it’s just ‘a game’
It seemed like everything was lining up just perfectly and Tracey was going home. We were laughing and so happy because we were so sure that we had seen the last of her so that the rest of the players could get back to being supportive like they were before she kept pushing ’the game, the game’
Liz was talking about how southern women get even, how she was going to be so nice to Tracey and then send her home first chance she got and she wouldn’t even see it coming.
Then Coach MO spoke up and all of that went right down the drain.
WHAT HAPPENED????
Did everyone conveniently forget how Tracey had stabbed them all in the back?
So anyway, all through Biggest Loser last week everything seemed to be on the right track and we were getting so excited and then…..
They sent Coach MO home :0(
So tonight we sat down to watch Biggest Loser not really sure how things would go.
to be honest we still had hope that maybe the blue team would wake up and see Tracey for what she is and that if they had to send someone home it would be her.
All through the challenge we were rooting for the black team. Sorry Bob, we love you, but we just cannot stand Tracey.
It just seems like Vickey all over again
Does anyone else out there see the similarities?
Vickey made that whole season absolute misery
Is Tracey going to do the same this season? Isn’t she already?
Okay, so the blue team sent the black team home for the week thinking that it would give them the advantage.
So at the weigh-in the blue team went first and I must say that for the fact that the blue team was there at the Biggest Loser ranch all week their numbers were not that impressive.
Then the black team got up to get weighed. Even though they had been home all week we had great hopes for the, From what we had seen it looked like they all did pretty good. They seemed to make good choices and exercised.
Then the numbers that they were putting up weren’t very good. We started to worry that the black team would be sending someone home. Then Danny got up there and pulled off a 15 pound weight loss.
FIFTEEN POUNDS!!!
Dan only had to lose 11 pounds and the black team would be safe.
11 pounds….
We were so sure that Dan had it, that he could do this.
Then the horrifying news that Dan had gained a pound
G A I N E D!
OMG!
of all people Dan gained a pound. we couldn’t believe it. then we were worried that Dan would get sent home. He finally had a break through and might be able to finally deal with the emotional issues that got him where he was when he came on the ranch last season.
Don’t get me wrong, we like Dina too but we really would like to see Dan go to the finale.
So how does everyone else feel about Tracey? How do you like how the show has been the last couple of weeks?
Are we the only ones wanting Tracey to go home? I wouldn’t think so.
Go ahead and leave your comments and let us know what you think about Tracey and the Biggest Loser…
Later

Biggest Loser Season 8-week 4
Wednesday, October 7th, 2009Boy tonight’s Biggest Loser was really good.
What a challenge to only be there for 3 weeks and then to have to order all of your meals and not know what extra oils and salts have been added
I think that everyone did a pretty good job with their choices. I do have to wonder if the orders may have been messed up on purpose so that the contestants would learn how to deal with these things happening at home
After the preview from last week Josh & I were sure that Tracey not being able to exercise was karma for how she was last week. We thought it was terrible that MO would have to have all of this pressure, since day 1, to be able to keep them both there.
Franky, I must be honest that after how Tracey was last week we were both hoping that she would be going home. She is so much about playing the game that I just don’t think that she is learning what she needs to, and dealing with whatever it is that got her where she is, because she is so focused on ‘the game’
What about the challenge where the contestants had to hold themselves above the water like that?
Shay? WOW Girl! You did GREAT!
As contestants were dropping off into the water we couldn’t believe that Shay was doing so well. She outdid so many that weight less than she does. Shay you should be so proud of yourself!
When it got down to the last 2 teams- orange or green- it was difficult to know who to root for. Dan is a fav from last season and has definitely won a place in our heart. Shay needs to be there so for Dan to win immunity for them both would be wonderful :0)
Green team has it’s place in our heart too though. And Abby has really touched us. Having gone through so much hardship and loss of those we love, we understand the devastation that Abby has faced. We are so proud of her and how she has kept going when others would have given up.
Yehhhhh! To Dan for winning immunity for him and Shay. Hard to believe that Dan was only on for 4 weeks last time and yet he made such an impression on us and so many others.We are happy that he will be on longer this time and we hope that he will continue to the finals :0)
I have so much more to say but it is late and I have work tomorrow so I will have to stop for now. More later :0)
Biggest Loser Season 8
Wednesday, September 30th, 2009Hi All,
First of all I would like to apologize for not having blogged about Biggest Loser in so long. I had every intention of doing wonderful posts about Biggest Loser all summer and I couldn’t wait for the new season to start so I could blog about that.
Well, the best laid plans…. :0(
You see, I had all of these plans but God had other ones for me I guess.
This year has been one of the worst years we have had since my Mom died.
2009 started off badly and it has continued to be that way.
As I mentioned before we found our cousin in a pool of blood dead earlier this year. My friend’s sister died 2 days later. Her mother died shortly after that and then her other sister hung herself last month.
We have lost numerous relatives and family friends this year. I lost my job, gained a new one, have had a lot of health issues and the stress has been unbelievable.
I was hoping that I would make enough money online that I wouldn’t have to work outside the home due to my health issues but that has not been the case. I have taken on some part time jobs that have irritated my health issues but I have been thankful to have what money we have had. Though living on less than $10,000 a year is not easy by a long shot.
Ok, anyway. Enough about all of that. I just wanted you to understand why I haven’t been blogging on here like I had planned. It has been a heck of a year.
But, on to the Biggest Loser…
I CANNOT believe tonight’s show. What is up with Tracey???
I am in shock that she thought that 2 pounds was worth not being trained by Bob and Jillian and I do not believe it was fair of her to take it upon herself to choose that and take away the training from her teammate like that.
Then she got control of the game and almost literally threw everyone under the bus.
THEN when we wanted her to go home so bad that we could practically taste it she puts her team in first place putting 2 other teams in the hot seat.
She lied to people and backstabbed and from the previews for next week she doesn’t seem to ‘get it’
Do we have another ‘Vickey’ on our hands here or what? Hmmmm….
I want to applaud Dan for going to bat for Shay and I REALLY must say that I cried like a baby when Antoine and Sean sacrificed themselves for Shay like that.
I had a feeling that they would but I still was amazed that they actually did it. How humbling that even though they wanted to be there they put Shay, and her health, before their own wants
We saw a lot of emotions on the show tonight which is nothing new for Biggest Loser but it sure did bring out the emotions here. Tracey’s behavior has not won her any fans in this home.
Antoine and Sean should be praised for their sacrifice. You two are AMAZING! It was so wonderful to see the results that you both have had at home. WOW! Over 100 pounds each!!!
Shay? We are so glad that you and Dan will be able to stay on Biggest Loser. I know that you have had a hard life but PLEASE Do NOT Give Up!!! You ARE Worth fighting for. You DESERVE to be happy!!! And last but not least…. You CAN Do This!
Many of us have had hard lives. Josh and I have been through Hell and back. A strong person gets back up and brushes them-self off. For all you have been through You ARE a STRONG Person! Don’t give up now. Wonderful things are just ahead for you if you don’t give up.
As always, Biggest Loser has made me laugh, it has made me cry, I have rejoiced in the progress being made and I have been angry by the behavior of one contestant who needs to stop playing the ’game’ and realize why she is there- to lose weight and to deal with the issues that got her there in the first place.
Yes Tracey lost 11 pounds this week- I don’t know how. Even Tracy didn’t know how. That kind of weight loss won’t continue and it won’t last until she deals with the issues that got her obese in the first place and why she behaves the way that she does.
Can’t wait till next week to see what will happen next
I will try to be better about blogging about Biggest Loser each week. Just please understand that if I don’t it is because of all the chaos in my life right now. Earning enough money to pay the bills, buy food and to have heat during the upcoming Michigan winter is top priority right now.
Donations or your purchasing any Biggest Loser items you see listed on this blog would be greatly appreciated and would help to take the pressure off.
Hope you all are well?
How are your weight loss goals coming?
Whatever happens don’t give up trying to lose the weight….
You CAN Do It!!!
Biggest Loser Season 8
Thursday, August 20th, 2009Well, it is almost here- Biggest Loser season 8 will be starting on September 15th, 2009. For those of us die hard Biggest Loser fans it has been a long time coming :0) For someone who is addicted to the Biggest Loser tv show it has been very hard getting through.
I had planned on re-watching some of the shows from previous seasons during the summer and posting about them but I guess that God, and life, had other plans as we have not had time to watch any of the shows that we have taped. It’s not even completely about being busy, though we really have been, but we have also had a lot of emotional issues to deal with due to the loss of several family members and friends of our family
Anyway on to talking about the new season…
This time around the Biggest Loser will be doing something different. They will not be having couples, as they have so often lately, but will be back to singles. They will be continuing to show
The Biggest Loser will be in 2 hour episodes the same as they have been for the past 3 seasons.
This time around the Biggest Loser researched and studied to see which are America’s fattest cities and the tried to cast in these cities. They also added something in these cities to try to help them to change their ways so that they can lose weight, get healthy and get off the list of America’s fattest cities.
I think that it is great that Biggest Loser is helping so many people to lose weight not only on the ranch but by trying to help get America’s fattest cities off the list.
Biggest Loser is currently casting for season 9 in which they will be going back to the family format. Season 9 will premiere January of 2010
Stay tuned because I will be posting info on the cast for season 8, who they are and a little bit about them
