Biggest Loser-Maria Goes Home

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

Tonight on Biggest Loser I was surprised at how many people did not want to try to win the temptation. Since Michael and Sherry were tied I was a bit shocked that Michael came that close and then gave the game up. Since the candies were only 5 calories each and all he would have needed to eat was few more it was a bit surprising.

Okay, so pink team got the power to control the game. They got to choose who would be the teacher and who would be the student. It didn’t seem like they were real careful in their choosing as they seemed to stack the deck against themselves

The challenge was a bit weird but it was nice to see a challenge that wasn’t putting the thinner people in a position of power. It seems that so many of the challenges are physical to the point that those who are the most overweight are the ones that end up losing. Thus, those who need to be there the most often get the short end of the stick and then they usually end up going home soon because of it

I think that Michael had the right plan but boy did it backfire when it turned out that his mother would have to undo all of the ribbon that he had twisted and knotted up and had to do so blindfolded to boot.

It may have backfired against them but I was happy that it did put a wrench in the plans of the red team.

Melissa throwing the weigh in last week irked me but her comment tonight about Michael being 500 pounds was mean. After all, she is overweight too so who is she to be throwing stones?

Speaking of throwing stones? It seems that stones weren’t the only thing that Melissa was throwing. She threw the weigh in this week too. Then she gets mad at Bob and Jillian when they called her on it. Excuse me, does she think that we are all a bunch of IDIOTS here???

We all can see what she is up to and she gets mad because she got called on it?

She is so busy playing the game it makes me sick. There are so many people that want and need to be there to lose weight and here she gets this wonderful opportunity and she is wasting it because of game play?

It seems that her husband is doing what he needs to do to lose the weight but in my opinion, his wife is putting a target on their back by her game play.

Josh feels that way too. Josh and I are in total agreement about wishing that Melissa would go home

Does anyone else feel that way?

I know that Biggest Loser is a reality show, it is a game, BUT, when people are so focused on game play it seems that it is a slap in the face. They were chosen to go on Biggest Loser so that they could lose weight and get healthy but all they care about is the money and they are so obvious about but the think that they are fooling us?

That is the surest way to get me to dislike a player..

So the gray team got immunity and they got to choose a team to switch teacher/student status which then sent the opposite person, in this case Michael, onto the scale with HIS weight being the deciding factor. I understand that they feel that he isn’t working as hard as everyone else but , as someone that roots for the underdog, I would like to play devil’s advocate and remind people that when Bob put on the 330 pounds it was very difficult for him. Michael being the heaviest player, some contestants might not be aware of just how much weight he is carrying around and how hard it is. Remember Ron struggling because of his weight and his health? I am hoping that Michael getting some of this weight off will make it less of a struggle and then maybe he can do more. I would hate to think that someone who so obviously needs the help would waste it by not putting in the effort. I am glad that he is being given the opportunity to prove himself.

As hard as it is for Michael to have his mother go home I am wondering if it might be a blessing in disguise. Michael has been so concerned about his mother that maybe being at the ranch on his own he will be able to concentrate and do what he needs to do for him to lose the weight and get healthy.

Ok, so did you see the preview for next week?

OMG! I cannot wait to see it. Now I know that Biggest Loser likes to fool you by showing things in the preview that makes you think one thing when it might be another totally. So, in looking at the scale it looks like Melissa drops from 212 to 186 which would put her at losing 26 pounds. I find that hard to believe

What do you think?

Who are your favorite contestants? How do you feel about Melissa’s game play?

Right now my favorite teams are Black- they are from Michigan but I would like them even if they weren’t ;0)

I like the white team- Michael needs to lose so much weight or he will only have a few years left.

I like the orange team-Darris has endeared himself to us. He reminds me of Dan from the past 2 seasons and he is even in orange just like Dan :0)

I like most of the other contestants but those are my favorites for right now.

My least favorite contestant? Melissa.

Who would you send home if you had the power to?

I know who I would choose….

Btw, I would like to apologize for not posting like I should and how I want to. Our computer is old and it is EXTREMELY SLOW. It takes me hours to get done what I should be able to do in 30-60 minutes. I wanted to get a new tower- newer and more powerful- but our property taxes were more than I thought that they would be and we still need to come up with over $200 or our place will go up for foreclosure the 1st of March. It seems that life has been handing us a bunch of lemons but we are trying to make lemon-aid.

Dan and Shay Go home

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009
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!

Ice Cream Sandwich Torture and burning zillions of calories

Thursday, May 21st, 2009

Hey everyone- isn’t it a beautiful day out today? I am posting here and then I am heading outside to enjoy the sun, great weather and fresh air.

Course it won’t be for fun and games. There is lots of yard work and gardening to get done right now but I try to see the positive side of it all. Lots of fresh air and moving around (ie: exercise) will help me to burn off all the calories I had last night.

Was someone trying to tell me something or what? I decided that since it was hot out that it had been a long time since we had had ice cream and it sounded good.

So, we get a box of ice cream sandwiches. My son and I each have one while in the parking lot of the grocery store as it is so hot out and something cold sounds so refreshing. We figure on having the rest in the freezer to enjoy over the coming weeks of hot weather.

Little did we know that disaster was about to strike :0(

So, we get home and go to put away the ice cream sandwiches and discover, to our horror, that the freezer has quit working.

Now, this is awful as we had the chest freezer nearly

full in our efforts of stocking up for emergencies.

All of our meats, fruits, vegetables, etc. have thawed and spoiled as from the smell when we opened the door of the freezer the dang thing quit a couple of days ago- probably right after we got in there the other day.

So, not only do we have literally hundreds of dollars worth of food spoiled that we REALLY could not afford to lose- BUT we have this whole box of ice cream sandwiches that are getting softer by the minute. It’s too late to call friends and have them over so what’s a girl to do?

Yep, you guessed it- we ate the WHOLE BOX OF ICE CREAM SANDWICHES!!!

Now for someone who recently lost a lot of weight this could be a disaster as big, or bigger, than losing hundreds of dollars worth of food.

But, in my effort to try to look at the positive side of things (though I STILL haven’t seen the positive side of losing all of that food we had stocked up on) I must say that eating that many ice cream sandwiches has definitely changed the way that I feel about ice cream sandwiches.

Right now I am not sure if I will EVER enjoy eating one of them again. So, maybe that will stop me from buying them for a long time. If that doesn’t- not having a working freezer should.

So, I am now in the market for a low cost, used, freezer that runs GOOD- if you live in the thumb of Michigan and have one then please let me know.

I have also decided that maybe we will stick more with dehydrating and canning from now on. STILL, a freezer is nice for some foods and for things like ice, ice cream ice cream sandwiches….. just kidding :0)lol

Anyway, with all of the yard work that needs to be done I am not even going to worry about gaining weight from that binge last night.

I will drink LOTS of water and eat some fresh veggies.

Just a reminder: you can get my free e-book about how to easily lose weight- just look below for all of the details.

BTW, a word of advice ALWAYS make sure that your freezer is working before buying ice cream

Now I am off to try to burn a zillion calories :0)lol
