Biggest Loser 2009 - Couples 2

[Cinderumbrella]

ME TOO!! But then DH is always yelling "STOP, I WANT TO SEE WHAT THEY SAY!" Well I don't!!

I can get all those contestants weighed in in RECORD time!!

As you are fastforwarding, you can paraphrase for him

1) Low weight loss = "Wow, that really wasn't the number I was looking for... I just don't know what happened..."

2) High weight loss = "Wow! That is amazing! Jillian/Bob have changed my life forever and you really can do this without surgery or a magic pill..."

3) Hight weight loss for the annoying people "Wow! that really wasn't the number I was looking for, but I will take it..."

Problem solved!!

Don't forget that it is all spoken while either whining or crying.

I think I heard someone say this season is 7 weeks longer then normal.

Jillian had said it on a radio show or something.

7 weeks!?! That's too long.

Oh man I miss having DVR!

I swear that stupid BEEP BEEP BEEP of the scale drives me batty. I would love to be able to skip over that but then again I would miss the "hungarian chanting" music.

I agree! Their reactions rarely match up with what's really being revealed.

Also, I know this may sound mean, but did anyone think that when Mikey gave his reward of free groceries to the girl from the other team, that he was doing it for "brownie points"?

I know he seemed really genuine with the offer, and he probably was, but I think he did it also with thinking it might have saved him from getting voted off too soon.

I think he was genuine. That is a VERY generous gift he gave and it doens't guarantee they won't vote him off at some point. I have been pulling for Mike to win. He seems the most mature out of all of them and he's the youngest...lol. I'm still not a fan of his dad. I think he and Laura will go home if he didn't lose the weight. I also didn't like the way they were putting all the pressure on Mike to lose the weight....they ALL had to weigh in so just because he went last, it shouldn't be all up to him to lose the weight. If he falls short it certainly wouldn't just be his fault they didn't make it. I did like that plot twist though. I thought it was cool they have a chance to all be safe.

Oh I totally agree. He was a basket case--poor boy.

I agree. Mike has a wonderful head on his shoulders and I really want him to win. I think his gift truly was from the heart. That boy looks amazing! I can't believe how much weight he has lost. He really could win this thing. I hope it's him, Tara, or one of the Tonga boys. Tara can get preachy but she works her *** off, so do Sione and Filipe. I doubt anybody works as hard as those four.

Jillian was mean, but Laura needed it. If Laura is pulling 7 lbs a week, how much better could she be doing if she really were putting in the effort. Jillian is right, she needs to get rid of that victim mentality. It sucked what she had to do, but it was what Laura needed to hear. At least she really had a heart to heart with Laura. Jillian yells, but she also really connects and gets to the root of it.

Hi I'm going to chime in because I am ADDICTED to this show! I do like the "reality" drama, but I like the outcome, yes these people win money, but this show seems to really change their lives for the better. I like a "feel good" ending I couldn't believe the "cliffhanger" this week! I was so pissed, but I do think that Mike makes the weight needed and they all get to stay. I would like to see Mike win or even maybe Helen, she seems to always work hard too, I am also a fan of Filipe and Sione! Can't wait for next week!

I'm not so sure. Remember the clip of the scene showing Filipe or Sione (sp) yelling about Jillian not giving them enough attention at the workouts? I wonder if he is upset because maybe they DON'T lose enough weight to all stay....?

I think he is mad because he only last 3lbs this week when he has been losing bigger numbers. He really does not like Jillian as a trainer.

But didn't he say that he wasn't giving it his all because he was pouting over losing Bob.
Plus he hurt his ankle.

Sione hurt his ankle. Filipe was the one having the tantrum.

ok, yes I have way too much time on my hands sometimes. I crunched the numbers from the weigh in so far this week. If they showed the rankings like usual - this is how I figure the results would have been.

Blue Team
Mandi 0.039408867 8
Aubrey 0.037914692 8
Kristin 0.032258065 9
Ron 0.017191977 6
Cathy 0.012048193 3
Total 0.026336174 34

given that percentage I figured that the Black Team would have had to lose at least 32 pounds to "win" the weigh in. They are at 34, without Mike even weighing yet and in spite of Filipe having an off weeks for him.

Tara 0.052132701 11
Laura 0.030042918 7
Filipe 0.028268551 8
Helen 0.025252525 5
Sione 0.01048951 3
Mike ??
Total 0.02807597 34

Unless they do something to rearrange the teams again, I think that Blue team is in a big hurt.

I was soooo mad too. I couldn't beleive they just left it. And we are going to Disny next week, so I have to DVR it and not watch it till Sat or Sun.
I don't think they make it. It seemed like from alot of hte stuff they showed that hasn't aired yet, too many were upset.

I'm starting to get annoyed with Tara. I think she goes to the extreme at times and isn't always the nicest. I guess I don't like how she kind of brags herself up and talks down about Laura. Granted Laura is a big pain, but they are supposed to be friends.
I really liked Dan and Blane, and so sad they left.

TOTALLY agree about Tara, I find her annoying in most episodes and that she seems to think she is always the best on the team, etc...I am glad for everyone for losing weight, I am always impressed by Ron, I know he holds that team back for challenges and what not, but the man can barely walk some days and he still loses weight every week! You can tell that he is in this for Mike!

I watch at 1.5 speed on the DVR. I love it. Everybody talks fast but who cares what they all say. It's always the same as stated earlier:

1) Low weight loss = "Wow, that really wasn't the number I was looking for... I just don't know what happened..."

2) High weight loss = "Wow! That is amazing! Jillian/Bob have changed my life forever and you really can do this without surgery or a magic pill..."

3) High weight loss for the annoying people = "Wow! that really wasn't the number I was looking for, but I will take it..."

Love the DVR.
