We find Daris realizing that his mom, Cheryl, was sent home. He seems upset but puts on a smile for everyone.
Josh brings up about how Daris is not letting his feelings out and talking about what is bothering him which is what helped to get him to the size he was when he came on The Biggest Loser ranch.
My feeling is that he had the chance to say goodbye, he KNEW that his mom going home was a possibility and yet he barely looked at her.
This is a far cry from how close they were when they came on the show.
Actually I am seeing changes in several of the blue team members that I don’t like. I do not understand why some people, when they start to lose a lot of weight, change.
Did they use to be like that before they gained the weight?
Or is it all about losing the weight and starting to look good and that it changes them?
You see, when Daris and Cheryl came on the show they were always talking to each other and hugging. I thought that it was great that they had such a good relationship.
Yet when Daris knew that his mom might be the one to go home he acted like he wasn’t even going to say anything to her, he didn’t go give her a hug goodbye and it seemed that when he did say anything he wouldn’t even look at her and he seemed a bit ‘cool’ towards her
I see the same kind of changes in Koli since the teams went to black and blue. He doesn’t seem to talk with Sam anymore despite the fact that he said that their being on different teams wouldn’t change anything that they would still be cousins.
Sam, on the other hand, is the bigger man as far as I am concerned. He praised up Koli’s weight loss when they had the weigh-in. And he said, in a great reminder to all of the contestants, that “THIS is what it’s all about not black or blue”
Anyway, so the contestants had to do a pop challenge and it was trivia about what they have learned since being on the Biggest Loser ranch.
For each correct answer they get a point and the first team to get three points wins.
The prize? A day (and night) at The Four Seasons.
The loser’s have to clean the kitchen and the gym
Now, we love the black team but we know that when teams get a prize like this and they get to do the whole spa thing that it usually shows up badly on the scale come the weigh-in.
So, even though we know that the black team would have loved to go have the day off and get massages (and that they deserved it) we were hoping that they wouldn’t win this challenge..
Cleaning the kitchen and the gym isn’t the most pleasant of tasks but it would give the black team extra workout time -after all cleaning IS exercise :0)
And the most important thing for us is for the black team to win the weigh-in
As much as I don’t like how Michael has been behaving I admire the fact that he left the ranch to be at her side when he found out her health was bad
We hope that she will be ok
The cooking challenge was interesting. To be able to create 3 courses using only 12 ingrediants?
The prize- a 5 POUND Advantage? OOOOHHHH!!!
We were hoping that the black team would win it. We have been hoping that the blue team would have to send someone home. The blue team has such an advantage already so a 5 pound advantage would help to even things up a bit.
I don’t remember the Biggest Loser ever having given a 5 pound advantage before.
If you haven’t already figured it out- we were happy to see the black team win the cooking challenge and get the 5 pound advantage. The weigh-in should be interesting this week
Josh and I realized that we really like when the blue team has to weigh-in first as it makes it so much easier to know how much weight loss to root for as each team member gets weighed.After all, you want them to lose enough to win but not enough to put them at a disadvantage next week
Well, when all was said and done the blue team won again. The black team had a weight loss of 2.5% while the blue team ended up with a 3.11% weight loss.
Even though the blue team has all those big guys that pull big numbers the black team still gave it a great try. They might not win the weigh-ins for losing weight but they sure do win for having heart and not giving up despite the odds.
So, the black team ended up having to send another team member home. It was sad to see Sherry go home but boy did she look great in the update-didn’t she?
I must say that I don’t like how the blue team has been behaving since they went black verses blue and I know that there are others that feel the same way. But, I guess we won’t be having to worry about that for much longer since the teams will be disolved soon.
Well, until next week.
Later :0)

OMG! 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!

What 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.

Hi 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
~Michelle & Josh

Remember Biggest Loser winner Helen’s daughter Shanon? Do you remember how she was arrested December 16th, 2008 for domestic violence. She was charged with throwing flour into her tenants face.
While many of you were not thrilled with Helen and many did not like the fact that HeHelen stayed on the Biggest Loser ranch while her Daughter Shanon went home for the second time.
A lot of you thought that Helen was being selfish by not only letting her daughter go home again but the fact that she actually ‘manipulated’ Shanon into asking that she be the one to go home while her mother stayed on the Biggest Loserranch
I remember Shanon’s face when she realized that she was going to be going home. I think that she had some doubts and some regrets for volunteering to be the one to go home so that her mother could stay on the ranch.
Well, after months of not knowing what was going to happen this case went to trial and the witness never even bothered to show up.
The judge threw the case out and Shanon is now a free woman.
Life is going well for Shanon and her mother Helen.
Helen wins $250,000 and the title of Biggest Loser while Shanon’s case is thrown out and she is now free to roller derby all she wants to.

OMG! Remember that big blow up on Biggest Loser with Filipe screaming at Jillian and then stomping out? Remember it was because Jillian hadn’t worked out with Filipe that day?
Has anyone wondered why Jillian worked out with everyone else on her team and NOT Filipe? I figured that it was just that she was so busy with the others and Filipe had been doing so well that she ran out of time and didn’t get to him that day.
Well, it seems that there was much more to it than that.
Et online has reported that Filipe Fa accused Jillian of giving her team drugs!
Because of Filipe’s drug accusation an internal drug investigation had to be performed. And because Jillian felt hurt and betrayed she refused to train one-on-one with Filipe.
I don’t blame her one bit. I would feel the same way if someone falsely accused me of something that serious.
Anyway, so when Jillian refused to work out with Filipe he got angry and that is what led up to the big blow up that we saw during Biggest Loser season 7.
Jillian says that she was furious, disgusted and betrayed, It took a week for the drug investigation to take place.
Filipe now says that he never accused Jillian. Executive producer Mark Koops contradicts him. He states, “The accusation came from Filipe.”
Now, Biggest Loser DOES allow multi-vitamins and caffeine supplements to give them energy but those come directly from the medical staff of Biggest Loser and not from Jillian, Bob or Allison.
In the end Jillian was cleared. Filipe now says that he and Jillian have smoothed things over.
Somehow I doubt that. I believe that it was Filipe’s accusation that almost made Jillian quit Biggest Loser.
I knew back when that whole blow up happened that Filipe must have had something to do with Jillian wanting to quit.
Now we know why.
Filipe, I think that you need to do some growing up. You accuse Jillian of something so awful and then you get mad when she doesn’t want to be around you? So then you throw a huge hissy fit and make an a## of yourself on tv for everyone to see?
I do not blame Jillian for being mad, hurt and betrayed. After a serious accusation like that, when it was found to be untrue (which I am NOT surprised) we think that Filipe should have been asked to leave the Biggest Loser ranch.
Like Josh said, if they made him go home then they could have went an extra week without someone else having to go home.
Slander is a very serious issue and Filipe is lucky that Jillian isn’t suing him because of this. For someone in Jillian’s occupation an accusation like this could have ruined her career.
Well Everyone, what do YOU think of this?
What are your thoughts on Filipe’s accusation against Jillian?
What do you think that the Biggest Loser should have done towards Filipe when his accusation was found to be untrue?
Should they have sent him home?
Did they do the right thing?
Let us know what you think by commenting now-thanks! :0)

Taping the first week of season 8 that is. Alison Sweeney says that it was an emotional night when they wrapped up that first week.
I have asked her when Biggest Loser will start again in the Fall and am waiting to hear back from her. I will let you know as soon as I find out.
I bet the contestants are working their butts off and losing huge amounts of weight as it seems that the first week on the Biggest Loser the contestants usually losethe highest numbers of all of the weight that they lose while on the Biggest Loser ranch.
I can’t wait to find out more about the contestants- who they are, where they come from, how much weight they need to lose, why they want to lose the weight so vadly that theywere able to manage to get on the Biggest Loser tv show, etc.
It is always so interesting to find out the stories behind each contestant.
I just was reading that someone thinks that Helen is TOO skinny to the point that they think that she looks unhealthy.
Now I admit that Helen is pretty tiny but I don’t think that she looks unhealthy. I don’t think that she needs to lose any more weight at this point. I think that she has lost enough weight for someone her size.
Helen says that she has some sagging skin but that her doctor told her to wait a year before she considers having surgery to remove it.
I think that if she just keeps exercising that she should be able to tone the sagging skin without any surgery at all.
When someone loses a lot of weight like that they Do sometimes need to have surgery but I don’t think that surgery is anything that they should jump into. Helen’s doctor seems to have the right idea and I think that it is good advice.
What do YOU think? Do you think that Biggest Loser’s Helen is too thin and unhealthy? Or do you think that she is just right for her size.
BTW if you want to see something AMAZING you should check out the transformations on NBC’s Biggest Loser site. Helen, Mike and Tara’s transformations are jaw dropping.
You can even go back to seasons 3,4,5 & 6 and watch the great transformations from past season’s. The transformations of season 5’s Kelly, Ali and Roger are pretty amazing too. I spent some time over there last night just checking out how different everyone looks after losing so much weight. Wouldn’t it be cool if you could lose weight as fast as the transformations show it? It wouldn’t be healthy but OHHHH to lose weight that fast and be skinny almost instantly? Maybe in the future huh? :0)LOL

Hi, I’m back. Sorry I didn’t get back sooner but my boss had surgery and so I have had to work extra as well as finish finding homes for the last few cats that my cousin left behind when she died.
Would you like a cat? ;0)
Ok, now was anyone REALLY surprised that America chose Mike over Ron?
Was it just that they like Mike better? Was it because of Ron asking that they give his son the chance to be the 3rd finalist and that he have the opportunity to be the Biggest Loser?
After seeing how many people were voting my polls saying that they wanted Ron to go home even weeks ago I have to wonder if Mike got to be the 3rd finalist simply because people didn’t seem to take to Ron for some reason.
Anyway, I would have been happy no matter which of them got to be the 3rd finalist but I was happy that Mike be given such a great opportunity as- even though Ron has lost a lot of weight and looks good- Mike has really worked hard and it is absolutely AMAZING how much weight he has lost and how different he looks.
I loved the fact that Biggest Loser was on for 3 hours instead of the usual 2. It didn’t seem so rushed. And yet, even with a full 3 hours it didn’t seem to be enough :0)
I thought it was great that Biggest Loser had some of the winnders from previous seasons but it would have been great if we could have heard a bit more from them about how they are doing now.
They all seem to be keeping the weight off and look great!
OMG0 could you believe it when Jerry took the lead for the Biggest Loser at home $100,000 winner and kept it!?
It just floors me to think of how Jerry was so unhealthy when he came on Biggest Loser that he passed out and we were worried that he would die.
Then to see him walk out on the stage and be so skinny. He and estella both looked wonderful and they seem so happy.
We are happy for them both for their weight loss and for Jerry’s win.
Wow! Everyone- well, almost everyone- looked great and had lost so much weight.
Looking at my chart from my previous post you can see at a glance what the contestants weighed when they first started on Biggest Loser, how much they weigh now and how much weight that they lost.
It is easy to see who really tried and who didn’t try as much.
I couldn’t believe Dan when he walked on stage. He has lost so much weight and he looks great.
Keep up the great work Dan- You WILL reach your goal!!!
We saw Filipe’s dad in the audience and he looked great. It was good to see him looking so healthy after he had that stroke.
We like the fact that Kirsten, Sione and Filipe are helping others to lose weight by passing on the knowledge that they gained at the Biggest Loser ranch.
Tara also vowed to pass on the knowledge that she had gained from her tim on the Biggest Loser ranch.
There may have been others too but those are the only ones I can think of right now.
It was nice to see Carla and Joelle getting along again. They both had lost a nice amount of weight but Carla really lost a lot. She lost 128 pounds which is a whole person.
Just from what I have seen of Carla and my talks with her I believe that she will continue on her weight loss journey and will reach her goal too :0)
And wasn’t it something that the two oldest, and unhealthiest, men were the ones that were neck and neck to win the Biggest Loser at home $100,000 prize?
And that if Ron had just lost something like 5 more pounds that HE would have beat Jerry?
Then we take a look at the 3 Biggest Loser finalists…
Mike lost a total of 207 pounds while Tara lost 155 and Helen lost the least amount of the 3 with losing 140 pounds. And YET Helen was the Biggest Loser with the highest weight loss percentage.
Each one of the 3 finalists lost an entire PERSON!
And Ron lost nearly 2 whole people!
This season of Biggest Loser was wonderful. We were so happy that you could really enjoy the show without all of the backstabbing and meaneness that we witnessed last season.
I wasn’t thrilled with Ron making sure that Mike would vote in such a way as to send Kirsten home and then act like he had no control ove Mike and he would NEVER have sent Kirsten home after all he had promised her mother that he would take care of her.
Okay, I understand the love of a parent for a child and being in th same place I might even do the same. Who is to know until they themself are in such a spot?
But, after all of last season’s nastiness this was a small thing and when seeing how everyone came together to walk with Ron across the finish line during the race I think that I can overlook his sneakiness and concentrate more on the unity that hisinjury brought about between not only this season’s members but previous Biggest Loser members too.
And, for those that haven’t yet realised it - PINK Won AGAIN!!!
That is 3 times in a row that Pink has won. Hmmmm…. makes you wonder it there will be some knock down drag out fights over who will be pink this next season? :0)
Now, I am thinking of a contest to try to help some of you to lose weight that need to. I don’t have everything figured out yet but I will be working on it and I will let you know as soon as I have it ready.
Just because Biggest Loser is done for the Summer doesn’t mean we are here at My Biggest Loser Blog. Summer is the time for showing skin and for those that ar overweight it is an embarassing time.
Let’s take advantage of Biggest Loser’s hiatus and we will spend that time trying to help each other to lose weight-K?
Have some weight loss tips? Great recipes?
I am setting up a My Biggest Loser Blog community. I can’t remember right now if it is ready or not. As I said before this is all new to me and I am still figuring everything out.
I will try to find time to check it out and finish it if it isn’t already asap. Then I want for us all to post weight loss tips and recipes all summer long. Post how you are coming on losing your weight. Maybe find a weight loss buddy whereas you can urge each other on.
In the meantime, if you haven’t already, check out my free report and try using the method I explain in there. I lost 10-12 dress sizes with no dieting or exercise and have been keeping it off with no effort.
Sound unbelievable? Maybe so but, it DID happen and, I showed you pictures to prove it.
Whatever you think it does NOT cost you anything for the information and even to get started is the cheapest way you will probably ever lose weight.
Just from using my method I have seen a difference in our grocery bill that more than covers what I spent to get started. Half of my method is a one time fee of less than $20- you will NEVER need to buy this again and yet it will help you to lose weight from now on if you just use it and using it is EASY!!!
Ok, time to go as I have to work again tomorrow.
I’ll be posting more soon so please bookmark us and keep checking back.
Later! :0)

Well, the Biggest Loser finale just got done and I am still riding my Biggest Loser high :0) I LOVE this show!!!
I have to work tomorrow so there is no time to go in to any great discussion about each contestant like I want to but I will give you a chart showing all of the weight losses as well as touch upon a few details. I will see about blogging more tomorrow and just because the Biggest Loser finale is over and the new season doesn’t start until this Fall is no rason not to keep checking back here.
Over the Sumer I plan to rewatch some of the shows we have taped and will be blogging about things that I missed the first time around as well as episodes that I haven’t blogged about yet as I started blogging about the Biggest Loser show after they had aired.
I also have been in contact with quite a few Biggest Loser contestants and was thinking that I might try to interview some of them. So you should bookmark us and keep cong back because the Biggest Loser might now be on hiatus for the Summer but we aren’t!

I just read a post on another blog about the Biggest Loser. This person thinks that Biggest Loser is flawed in the way that they help people to lose weight. They believe that all former Biggest Loser contestants gain the weight back.
I KNOW differently. You see, I am in touch with many of the former contestants of Biggest Loser and I have to say that all of the former Biggest Loser contestants that I am in contact with are maintaining their weight loss.
Sure, some are having a bit more of a struggle than others but I think that some of those are people that weren’t on the Biggest Loser as long. Maybe they didn’t learn as much about how to lose the wieght and keep it off, maybe they didn’t deal with the reason why they gained the weight in the first place.
I understand that there ARE some former Biggest Loser contestants that have gained back the weight that they lost while on the show but I think that I know why that is the case- at least for some of them.
In more recent season’s of the Biggest Loser tv show we have seen that game play has become more of an issue.
Why is this?
Simply because for many of these Biggest Loser contestants that are more concerned with the game play aspect of Biggest Loser are the very people that are on the Biggest Loser tv show more for the money and the fame that can come with being a contestant.
Now, I am not saying that this is the case with ALL contestants that are involved in game play but I think that for many it is true.
I can also see that when certain people that were on Biggest Loser are there more for fame and fortune that they do not take the time to deal with the issues of why they gained all of that weight in the first place.
They do not learn the lessons of nutrition, exercise and feeding the body for energy and health rather than using the food for entertainment and stuffing down the emotions that are the reason that they got fat in the first place.
The Biggest Loser contestants that dealt with the issues that made them gain the weight are the ones that are much more likely to keep that weight off rather than to gain it back.
Maybe that might not be the case with every Biggest Loser contestant but I would say that it would cover a good percentage of former Biggest Loser contestants.
How can you manage to keep the weight off when you go right back to eating the same way and the same unhealthy food choices?
How can you keep the weight off when you haven’t dealt with the underlying reason that made you gain the weight in the first place?
How can you keep the weight off if you haven’t changed the way that you feel about food and it’s role in your life?
I say that for people that want to be on the Biggest Loser tv show just to try to win the money then they should go on a game show. Want fame and fortune?Can you sing? Dance? Have some other talent? Go on America’s Got Talent or some other reality tv show that is for becoming famous rather than one that is about losing weight.
Now, if you REALLY want to lose weight and just hope for some fame and fortune as a by product of that weight loss then that is fine as long as you can keep your mind focused on the reason you are there at the Biggest Loser ranch- to Lose Weight!
Concern yourself with rethinking how you feel about food, dealing with emotional issues that got you where you are, learn how to eat healthy and how to exercise properly so that you have the tools that you will need to lose the weight and keep it off.
But don’t go on the Biggest Loser tv show specifically for the express purpose of gaining fame and fortune from stabbing your fellow contestanst in the back and then whine later about how you went on the Biggest Loser tv show and you gained all of the weight back so it is THEIR fault not YOURS!
Did they put a gun to your head and force you to eat fatty, unhealthy foods while sitting on your butt watching tv or playing video games?
Biggest Loser is here to help people to lose weight, and they ARE doing that all over the world, but they are NOT going to be by your side day by day for the rest of your life to stop you from going back to the very habits that made you gain the weight.
It is YOUR responsibility to learn WHY you gained the weight and deal with those issues if you Honestly want to keep the weight off.
It is not easy. But losing all of that weight isn’t easy. Why go to all of that trouble if you are not wiling to change the way that you think and feel about food and WHY you gained all of that weight in the first pace?
Well that’s my rant for now :0)lol Listen, my new website is so much differnt that my My Biggest Loser Blog that I had over on Blogger. I am still learning about where everything is and how to use it. I was able to get a poll app installed and I even managed to get a few polls going but now I cannot find them!?
I thought that they would be on the side of the page but they aren’t there.
Does anyone know about wordpress blogs, the poll apps and where I can find my polls?
Help!???
