Biggest Loser Season 13 week 2

Thursday, January 12th, 2012

Right off the bat Alison asks for volunteers and then she pulls 2 volunteers from each team and takes them into another room. In this room are stacks of poker chips.

Well, it turns out that each team is to bet on how much weight that they believe that their team will lose this week.

Red team bets that their team will lose more than 94 pounds this week which is 3.8%

They lost 3% last week

OMG! Have these women even watched Biggest Loser before? Do they have any idea what week 2 is like?

The average loss for week 2 is only 2%

I cannot believe that red team’s went and bet for their team to lose 94 pounds in week 2 which is the toughest week in Biggest Loser history.

That is 10 ½ pounds per person in week 2. And nearly double the average loss for week 2.

Then during the flag challenge Gayle goes over to work on solving the puzzle and we are told that just before this she said that she is dyslexic and bad at puzzles. Uh, if she knows this and told others that this is true about her then wouldn’t it have been better if someone else worked on solving it?

Dolvett was not happy when he found out how much weight their team needs to lose to win this week.

He spray painted 94 lbs on the wall to keep that goal in front of them. Uh, didn’t his momma teach him not to spray paint on the walls?

Bob seems very unhappy with Dolvett but how much of that is true and how much is for ratings? I gotta wonder?

BTW, I forgot to mention that Jillian is no longer on The Doctors. I am wondering if this might mean a return to The biggest Loser???

I would love to see this happen and yet I do like Dolvett. Yet, the team of Bob and Jillian is just pure magic. They are friends and yet they like to compete with each other. Nothing mean, just clean fun.

Ok, everyone seems to be working out except one.

What is up with Mike? It seems like all he’s been doing is taking breaks?

I believe that he was the one that was telling that he gained 50 pounds the summer he was 12. Which is when he met his half brother(?) for the first time? And what father lets their 12 year old gain 50 pounds over a summer and smoke like a smokestack?

Just when I was so glad to see Mike go home he finally admits that he has abandonment issues and seems to actually be a nice guy. So then I was see sawing about him going home. Course we hate to really see anyone have to go home ….well, for the most part. I mean there ARE some people that you can’t wait to see go home and when they do you do a HAPPY DANCE!!!!! WHOOHOO!

Ok, here are the weight loss amounts I have so far. I will need to watch what I taped and get the rest of the names and numbers and post them soon.

Black team:

Gayle -5 pounds

Megan - 4 pounds

Cassandra - 5 pounds

Emily- 4 pounds

Chris - 6 pounds

Joe- 8 pounds

Jeremy -7 pounds

Chism- 8 pounds

Red team:

Ok, so far there are quite a few Biggest Loser contestants that we like but the one that stands out the most to me right now (as I am running out of time to finish this. It has started to storm out and we need to get home) is Chism. I think that he seems like a really nice kid and he certainly needs to lose the weight.

WHOOOHOO! Chism sure pulled out the win for his team didn’t he? 8 pounds in week 2? WOW!

And, Josh had thought how ironic it would be if the 5 pound advantage was what put the black team ahead. Guess what? It was! The red team must REALLY be kicking themselves and I gotta wonder if the 2 women that bet the 94 pounds will be going home soon. I mean come on, the rest of the team was really unhappy with them. When push comes to shove I really think that this could come back to haunt them.

What do you think?

That’s it for now. Will try to post more soon.

See, I AM trying to do better about posting. It would be so much easier with home internet service but property taxes being paid are much more important.

Take care

~Michelle & Josh

Biggest Loser Spoiler March 2010

Thursday, March 18th, 2010

If you don’t want to know any spoilers then don’t read this.

Someone has discovered that if you are very careful in listening in the first hour of the show that you can find clues as to who will be going home that week. For the last 2 weeks they have found mentions in the first hour which later were revealed to be clues as to who actually went home that night.
You might want to try to see if this worksd again this week. I will be keeping my ears open for any such clues
Also, during the Biggest Loser tv show, airing in two weeks on March 30th, we will find that the Teams are DISOLVED and the Eliminated players will be returning to try to win a spot back on the Ranch. I don’t know about you but I think that this should be very interesting, indeed!

Biggest Loser Season 8

Thursday, August 20th, 2009

Well, 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

New Biggest Loser Game

Sunday, August 9th, 2009

A lot of us that have had a whole lot of fun playing the Biggest Loser memory game where we matched the different contestants before and after pictures.
Now there is a brand new Biggest Loser game and I must say that I am becoming addicted to it :0)LOL
I have surprisingly managed to handle not being able to watch the Biggest Loser tv show. A big part of the reason why not being able to see Biggest Loser all summer hasn’t been as bad as I had thought that it would be (and as bad as it usually is) is because my mind has been so totally consumed by everything that has been going on around here.
The year started off on a really bad foot and has continued to stay that way for the most part.
I was working for my cousin and found her lying in a pool of blood at the bottom of her stairs. She had fallen down her basement steps and hit her head on the cement floor.
We lost a very good friend, our cousin and my job that day.
Since then we have lost more friends and relatives, I have had health problems and we have had car trouble several times that extended into a much bigger ordeal than we had thought and hoped it would be.

On top of all of that, one of my best friend’s lost her sister just 2 days after we lost our cousin Judy (when I lost my job) and her mom died shortly after that. Her other sister just committed suicide and her nephew was the one to find her. She had hung herself.

Now I am concerned about my friend and her nephew. I am worried that this all might be too much for them. She says that she would never do that. But I still worry. She is like a sister to me and an Aunt to my son.

So, we have been trying to be supportive to help her to get through these tough times.

With all of this that has been going on I hope that you can all understand why I haven’t been blogging as much as I had planned on.

We have several blogs as you can see on our

mepage for Oaks Blogs and right now we are behind on adding new posts because of all that has been going on. We hope everyone will be understanding about it now that you know the reasons why.
So this summer has been a busy and stressful one but recently I saw a tv commercial for the Biggest Loser and since then I have been feeling the effects of having to wait so long to see BL.
So, I decided to do some looking and see what new news I could find about the Biggest Loser and guess what I found?

Yep, you guessed it- a brand new Biggest Loser game.

Seeing how things have been going around here I really was happy to find something that not only will entertain me and get my mind off of all of the sad things but also includes my favorite tv show ‘The Biggest Loser’

The only drawback is the fact that I could see myself becoming addicted to this new Biggest Loser game. When I play and do great I want to try to do better. And when I don’t get a good score then I want to play again so that I can try to get a better score.

I really like this new game. You use your knowledge about which foods are healthy and which foods are unhealthy- but don’t worry- it’s not rocket science ;0)lol

Got you interested? Want to try your hand at it and see how well you do?
You too can play the new Biggest Loser Game.

Biggest Loser Book

Thursday, July 9th, 2009

Well, we knew it was bound to happen. Actually I am surprised that it hasn’t happened long before this.

Or has it?

I don’t think so, none of my research has shown that anyone from all of the Biggest Loser contestants have done it before this.

Done what- you may wonder?

Well, remember Ali Vincent the first ever female winner of the Biggest Loser?

Ali lost 112 pounds and has been able to keep it off since she won season 5 of the Biggest Loser tv show.

Ali Vincent is writing a book called ” Believe It, Be ItL How Being the Biggest Loser Won Me Back My Life”

In her new book, which is due out November 10th, Ali talks about has managed to keep off the 112 pounds that she lost.
Even though her book isn’t due out until Nov you can go ahead and pre-order it right now so that as soon as Ali’s new book is out you will get one of the first copies

Biggest Loser Pigout?

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

I was just reading an article that talked about how so many people do not know when they are full.

When do you know that you are full?

Is it when your plate is empty?

When the food is gone?

When everyone else is done eating?

Did you know that there are a lot of people out there that consider the start of the Biggest Loser tv show to be their signal to start pigging out?

That people gather their friends and family as well as a table full of snacks in order to pig out during the Biggest Loser?

The Biggest Loser being used for a pig out fest?

I cannot imagine. I very seldom even eat while the Biggest Loser tv show is on. And I sure the heck try to avoid eating fattening food while watching it.

I don’t know about you but it just doesn’t seem RIGHT to pig out while watching a show about losing weight and getting healthy.

I may ‘pig out’ on occasion by having a treat or maybe eating a bit more than I probably should but I sure do not use the Biggest Loser as my excuse for loading up on junk food and stuffing my face

Do people think that they will be able to watch the Biggest Loser and just lose weight automatically?

Can you absorb the results of someone else’s exercise just by watching?

Can you lose weight by simply watching the Biggest Loser tv show?

Is this what people think?

Is that what YOU think?

I know that a lot of the people reading this blog are doing so because they want to lose weight and get healthy

I myself would be ashamed to pig out during the Biggest Loser tv show. It almost seems, I don’t know….sacrilegious?

It just doesn’t feel right.

Yes the Biggest Loser is entertaining and we love to watch it for it’s entertainment value.

BUT, if you are watching it in order to try to lose weight and get healthy how can you justify pigging out while doing so?

Heck, even if you are skinny as a rail how long do you think that will last if you continue to pig out for 2 hours every week?

So, if you really want to lose weight try taking a look at your behavior while watching the show.

If you find yourself guilty of indulging too much while watching the Biggest Loser then try making some changes.

Feel the need to snack while the show is on? Try having fruit and vegetable platters at hand or reschedule your HEALTHY, LOW FAT, meal to be eaten while watching the show.

They say that you shouldn’t eat while watching tv as you are not fully enjoying your food and you are much more likely to eat many more calories than you need to but at least eating a healthy, low fat meal would be better than pigging out on high calorie junk food snacks.

Remember Phil and his wife Amy Parham on season 6 of the Biggest Loser? I know that ’evil’ Vicky was who so many were talking about but you should remember Phil and Amy as Vicky couldn’t stand Phil and made Amy cry. Remember?

Now do you remember them talking about pigging out on ice cream while watching the show?

See, a lot of people are guilty of it but you CAN change those behaviors and lose weight.

If they can do it then so can you :0)

Here are a few tips to help you .

Try to avoid eating while watching tv

When you do so then try to have healthy snacks available- fruits, vegies, fruit sorbets, popcorn (pop it yourself and you control how much butter and salt it has on it)

Drink water whenever you feel hungry as sometimes it is really thirst being confused for hunger

Really want that high calorie snack?

Try cutting the portion in half or in quarters. Try having just a quarter of half portion instead. Really want more? Wait 30 minutes. If you still want it then go ahead and have another partial portion.

When you make fattening snacks like cake or brownies the cut them into serving size portions. Have 1 and put the rest in the freezer. By having to wait it gives you time to realize that you are already full so there is no more eating the whole cake and then being depressed when you realize what you have done

Not sure how to tell when you are full? Put only normal sized servings on your plate. It you are unsure of how much this is then look it up on the side of the package or in the recipe.

Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly. They used to say to chew each bite something like 30 times before swallowing it.

Set your eating utensil down between bites.

Savor the flavor. Don’t have distractions.

Listen to your stomach. When it says you are full then stop eating

Need some help with this? Still can’t tell when you are full? Do you REALLY want to be able to watch something and be able to lose weight simply because you watched it?

Do you think that it is possible?

It IS.

If you are truly serious about losing weight and you know that nothing that you have done so far has worked then right now go over to the right and order the subliminal weight loss software.

All you need to do is have this software going in the background when you are on the computer. You retrain your brain to feel differently about food. This makes it so much easier to lose weight and get healthy. The pounds can melt off without you even realizing it. I know as this is what happened to me.

It is under $20 one time and you can use it to lose the weight and then use it as a refresher every once in a while.

If you could lose weight for under $20 one time and no starving diets or brutal exercising wouldn’t you do it?

Go over and order your software now. It installs easily and starts working immediately once you hit the start button. It even comes pre-loaded with messages and yet you can personalize it with some extra messages of your own.

Try it. You’ll be glad you did. I know I am.

Firm Up & Get Healthy

Monday, June 22nd, 2009

While Having FUN!!!

Hi All,

Happy Father’s Day.

As a single Mom I am both Mother and Father to my son. As such I get cards for Mother’s and Father’s Day :0) So, I usually look forward to both holidays. But, today turned out to not be a great day around here.

If any of you have been checking out some of our other blogs you probably already know that we have chickens. I won’t get into the whole story here as this blog is about the Biggest Loser tv show and about helping people to lose weight and get healthy. But, something attacked some of our ‘baby’ chickens last night and killed 5 of 7 of them. The scene this morning was horrific. We raised these from little fuzz balls an to see how they suffered has made me sick to my stomach. Not really feeling like celebrating today.

Anyway, I promised you another way to firm up and get healthy so here you go

The other day I told you about something called isometric exercises which are not only super easy to do but they work great too. The great thing is that it doesn’t cost you anything to do isometric exercises and you can do them pretty much anywhere without most people even knowing that you are exercising.

Another great exercise that you can do that will not only help you to lose weight, firm up but to also get healthy in other ways too.

This one costs a little bit but it is not too expensive and compared with all of the benefits it is well worth it.

What is it?

Rebounding.

Some of you may not know what this is. A re-bounder is simply a mini-trampoline. It doesn’t cost much, we got ours at a rummage sale in like new condition for only $10.

You can set a re-bounder up in front of your tv and use it while you watch your favorite tv show- that could be Biggest Loser once it comes back on this Fall :0)

You simply get on your rebounder and walk, run, or jump your way to health.

If your health is bad you can still get the benefits of using a rebounder by resting your feet on it while sitting in a chair and then let someone else jump on it.

This will work well for those who may be elderly, obese or just have a lot of health problems.

Before you start you should get the ok from your doctor but if your doctor doesn’t think you should do this then ask them if you just rest your feet on the mini-trampoline while someone else uses it or you just gently bounce your feet if it might be ok to try it and see if you can start helping to improve your health this way until you are able to actually get on the rebounder and use it

Using a mini-trampoline, even like this, can help get your blood circulating and help to cleanse your lymph system. Rebounding affects every organ, helps the efficiency of the lymphatic system and even the immune system.

Your lymphatic system is your defense against , viruses, infection, bacteria and even diseases.

It cleans wastes and infection from all tissues of the body and even removes the toxins we absorb from our environment.

If you suffer from a stagnant lymphatic system you could suffer from any one (or more) of these common diseases:

Obesity

Loss of energy

Low back pain

Viral infections

Arthritis

Bacterial infections

Cancer

Prostate problems

Chronic sinus problems
Eczema and other skin conditions
Loss of Energy
Fibrocystic disease
Chronic fatigue
Repetitive trouble with parasites
Multiple Sclerosis

Heart disease
Edema
Lupus
Inflammation

High Blood Pressure
Headaches
Excessive sweating

These are just some of the diseases that affect anyone that has a sluggish lymphatic system. But you don’t have to have an impaired lymphatic system as using a mini-trampoline is one of the, if not THE, best way to improve your lymph system and gain other benefits too.

You can simply start using your mini trampoline for 5-10 minutes to start and build your time up from there. It may not seem like much and it is so much fun you may not want to get off of it :0)lol but even starting for small amounts of time you can gain great health benefits.

Here is a list of how rebounding can help your body:

1. Rebounding helps your lymphatic circulation

2. Rebounding protects your joints from chronic fatigue and trauma caused by the impact caused by exercising on hard surfaces.

3. Rebounding slows down the aging process.

4. Rebounding strengthens the skeletal systems.

5. Rebounding helps to circulate more oxygen to your tissues.

6. Rebounding creates better equilibrium between the oxygen required by your tissues and the oxygen that is available.

7. Rebounding improves your digestion and elimination processes.

8. Rebounding helps your blood pressure

9. Rebounding increases your capacity for respiration.

10. Rebounding helps in the rehabilitation of a heart problem.

11. Rebounding increases the functional activity of the red bone marrow in the production of red blood cells.

12. Rebounding improves your resting metabolic rate so that you burn more calories even hours after you finish exercising.

13. Rebounding causes your muscles to work in moving fluids through your body to lighten your heart’s load.

14. Rebounding decreases the volume of blood that you may have pooling in your veins of your cardiovascular system thus preventing chronic edema.

15. Rebounding increases your circulation.

16. Rebounding strengthens your heart & muscles so that they work more efficiently.

17. Rebounding allows your resting heart to beat less often.

18. Rebounding lowers circulating cholesterol and your tri-glyceride levels.

19. Rebounding lowers the low-density bad cholesterol in the blood and increases your good cholesterol to help you to avoid coronary artery disease.

20. Rebounding helps your body in tissue repair.

21. Rebounding for more than 20 minutes at a time with a moderate intensity will increase the mitochondria count within the muscle cells, essential for endurance.

22. Rebounding adds to the alkaline reserve of the body, which may be of significance in an emergency requiring prolonged effort.

23. Rebounding allows for better relaxation and sleep which helps you to deal with stress easier.

24. Rebounding helps to improve your balance.

25. Rebounding offers real relief from neck and back pains, headaches, and other pain caused by lack of exercise.

26. Rebounding helps for fatigue & menstrual discomfort for women.

27. Rebounding improves muscle-to-fat ratio.

28. Rebounding results in better mental performance, which could help you and your family with the learning processes.

29. Rebounding helps your immune system so it minimizes the number of colds you may have as well as allergies, digestive disturbances, and abdominal problems

30. Last, but not least, Rebounding is FUN!

With all of the benefits of rebounding there is really no reason not to get started using a mini-trampoline as soon as possible.

Now, for some of you, you may be able to get a rebounder at a rummage sale like we did but for those of you that are heavier you might not be able to find one strong enough to hold you.

Keep watching here as I am in talks with a company that makes the best rebounder around. With a 300 pound weight limit which is 50-100 pounds more than any other mini-trampoline around. It also has a safety bar and is low cost. If you haven’t already done so you may want to bookmark us and keep checking back. I will let you know as soon as I am able to offer you this great item to help you to lose weight and get healthy

Hope you all have been trying the isometric exercises I already told you about. Keep at it and you will start to see results :0)

Happy Father’s Day and First Day of Summer :0)

Later

Lose Weight & Get Healthy

Saturday, June 20th, 2009

If you need to lose weight and you have health problems then you might want to read this through to the end.

For anyone that is over-weight. and cannot move around a lot due to being so over-weight or due to health problems from their weight:

If you think that you can’t exercise- You CAN!

Even very sick people or elderly people should be able to do this.

You should check with your doctor to be on the safe side since your doctor knows your health concerns.

I am going to be telling you about 2 ways that you should be able to exercise to help you to get healthier and strengthen your muscles. I will tell you one way today and bring you the other method sometime this weekend.

Neither one of these is difficult nor is there any impact like if you are walking, running or weight training. You can do one of these exercises anywhere. Yes ANYWHERE!

It is also completely free. You can start this as soon as you read this and you can do it while watching tv, driving, at work, and people won’t even know that you are exercising.

What is this exercise?

It is called Isometric exercise.

Many of you are probably saying, “IS-O-WHAT?”

Isometric exercising is just simply tightening a muscle and holding it for

Isometrics are just “muscle” movements. This places the stress entirely on the muscle fibers. Done carefully and often, isometric (non-movement) exercises can help you to strengthen your muscles around the joints and reduce the wear and tear on them that you get with conventional exercising.

1) To start off you can just tighten your arm muscles and hold for 10 seconds. Release and relax for 10 seconds. Breathe deeply throughout. Repeats four more times and then do the other arm.

See how easy that was?

2) Tighten your chest muscles and hold for 10 seconds. Release and relax for 10 seconds. Repeat 4 more times

3) Tighten your stomach muscles and hold for 10 seconds. . Release and relax for 10 seconds. Repeat 4 more times

4) Tighten your leg and buttock muscles and hold for 10 seconds. . Release and relax for 10 seconds. Repeat 4 more times

This is one set. When you are finished with these you can repeat the whole set again. Start off small with one or two sets once or twice a week if you are in very bad health or very obese. If you are a bit healthier you can do one or two sets each day or even twice a day.

Now, if you are at home in front of the tv and you don’t have to worry about someone seeing you exercise you can also do these extra exercises for your chest , biceps and triceps.

Isometric Hand Press Exercise

While sitting upright in your chair you simply grasp your hands together in front of your chest, and firmly press them together. Make sure that you continue to breathe throughout the exercise. You should hold for 10 seconds and then relax for 10 seconds. Repeat this exercise four more times.

Another one that I like to do is what I call the

Bear Hug Exercise

Hold my arms in front of me and then bring them to the opposite side as if I am going to give myself a hug. Keeping the muscles tight I alternate with right arm above the left and then left above the right. Do this for 10 ’hugs’ Relax for 10 seconds and then repeat 4 more times

This will firm up the arms and chest (triceps, biceps and pectoral muscles). These WORK!

I believe that wearing a bra could be part of why breast cancer is so high. The pressure against the lymph glands stops them from doing their job properly- which is to cleanse the lymph fluid getting toxins out of your system.

So, I don’t wear a bra- even though I have large breasts. My Mom and a friend of mine always joked that I got enough for 2 people- course that was probably because my Mom was small breasted and my friend wears a smaller bra size than I do.

Anyway, without wearing a bra most people would have their breasts hanging down to their stomach. Mine don’t. I simply do these exercises at least once every week or so. My friend and her mother actually asked me why my breasts don’t hang down since I don’t wear a bra.

I believe that the only reason that they don’t is from these 2 exercises listed above. I also do the isometric exercises for the stomach, legs and buttocks. If these exercises work this well using them once every week or so, just imagine how well they can work if you do them more often. And they are not hard to do. There should be no gasping for air, no stress on the joints. Just be sure not to over do it when you first start as your muscles may feel sore since these are so easy you might not realize just how powerful they really are.

You should be able to go ahead and get started if you are in good health. If not, then please check with your doctor first but since there is no cost involved this is a great exercise that anyone can do. It is easy, simple, free and effective.

You might not lose a bunch of weight fast like they do on the Biggest Loser tv show by doing these but these are a simple way to start getting in better shape or as a way to exercise on days that you just don’t have time to get to the gym.

These may be little but they are MIGHTY! :0)

Like these simple exercises? Just wait until you find out what the other type of exercise is and how easy and FUN it can be :0)

Biggest Loser Gets Married

Saturday, June 13th, 2009

Biggest Loser winner Michelle Aguiler , from season 6, is getting married tomorrow.

I am sure that we all remember Michelle, and her mother Renee, from season 6 on the Biggest Loser tv show?

Michelle and her mother were on the pink team that season and we were all rooting for her and her mother to go to the finale. The reason why? Most of America just loved them.

Another reason? Most of America could not stand Vicky, Brady, Heba and Ed.

The worst of them all being Vickie. I think that most Biggest Loser fans would have preferred anyone to win as long as it wasn’t Vickie.

You all made your feelings obvious by voting our polls and everywhere I went, all over Biggest Loser land on the net, your opinion of Vicky, Brady, Heba and Ed were made very clear. By far Vickie stood out as the most villainous of the group and probably could take an award for the most hated Biggest Loser contestant ever.

I am sure that most of you agree.

Anyway, through all of the meanness and drama of the villainous four Michelle and her Mom Renee (as well as some others, like Coleen ) stood out above the nastiness as some very nice people. We came to know and love them all.

The Biggest Loser season 6 finale was December 16th, 2008. Renee wasn’t there as one of the finalists but she was there for her opportunity to try for the $100,000 home prize and to support her daughter.

Our polls were showing that most of you were wanting Michelle to win the $250,000 prize and take home the coveted title of America’s Biggest Loser.

I doubt too many of us were surprised to see her win that night :0)

But many of us WERE surprised when we first heard that Michelle was engage to be married only 9 days later.

Many were concerned that her fiance, Micah Whitehead, was marrying Michelle only for her money. Some people thought that this was awful sudden.

I myself, and probably many others, wondered why he had waited until Michelle lost the weight and won the money to ask her to marry him.

If he really loved her wouldn’t he have asked her before she lost the weight so that she would know that it was HER and not her weigh (or money) that he was really after?

Then we learned that they had been dating for 4 months. Okay, four months is better than just meeting him but it still isn’t long enough to really know someone that you will (hopefully) spend the rest of your life with.

In my own case I knew my husband for years before we got engaged. We were best friends for most of those years.

And yet you never can REALLY know a person completely. You never know how someone will be when they get involved with drinking and drugs. That, and domestic violence, was what caused my divorce.

So, I am wondering, is it better to know someone longer before marriage? Or, is it better to know them a short time? Can you know someone well enough in a few months that you can think about spending your life with them?

How many of you think that Michelle is making the right decision? How many think that she is making a mistake?

No matter what we all know and love Michelle and we wish her only the best.

We wish for her all the happiness in the world on her wedding day tomorrow and all of the tomorrows to come.

Hmmm, I wonder if her bridesmaid dresses will be pink? :0)LOL

Michelle will marry Micah Whitehead in Texas tomorrow (June 14th, 2009). We all wish her the best.
