Biggest Loser 2009 - Couples 2

[DeluxePrincess]

I toatally did not expect Helen to come out all stick thin like that. It was shocking. I am not an advocate for face lifts, but Helen could use some freshening up. The dramatic weight loss only accencuates her facial features.

I thought Tara's hair looked very thin too. Her body was spectacular though. She was my pick to win, but I'm sure we'll be seeing more of Tara in the future.

Mike turns out to be a hottie. And way to go, Jerry!!!

I also don't understand why they cut off the show so abruptly. Geez, we sat through 3 hours of that show. At least 60 minutes were spent recapping.

I thought Helen looked good at the her final weigh in at the ranch too! Her face now is what is so bad. Too skinny and she's almost all nose and mouth now. I hate to say that because I'm not a superficial person but I think some people just look better with a little meat on their bones.

I totally agree- at the final weigh in at the ranch I think Helen looked way better! Last night at the finale I thought she looked horrible- waaay too tan, leathery looking and way too thin!!! I've always thought Helen looks older than what she actually is. I even thought Tara looked too skinny- I like it when people have alittle meat on their bones too. I was very disappointed in Helen winning, I was really was hoping Tara would win. I haven't liked Helen since she was so selfish when her daughter went home.

I wasn't surprised when I saw how little weight David lost. I have a family member that is a friend of his and she visited him while he was filming the show after he was sent home and Daniel was still on the ranch- he was going to diners and eating Chicken Fried Steak the same day cameras were filming him when Curtis Stone went to the grocery store and cooked him that healthy meal. Daniel is a total sweetheart, and I wish them both continued success!

My DDs (22, 23) and I (48) watched and thought that Helen looked great. Well, not her hair, but her figure! She looked trim and fit, not sickly at all. We were cracking up though about her stance. Shoulders back, chest out, look at me! Tight pink dress that was too tight in the gut and butt! She forgot she was 48 and was trying to look 20 something! Sorry Helen, not so much! I bet her daughter isn't too happy with her.

We didn't like Tara at first, but over the past few weeks we were hoping she would win. I would have been much happier to see Tara or Mike win.

I thought her body looked good but her face way way too thin. It just didn't look good for her.

At least that much. And DW and I both got really sick of that stupid echo effect that they kept using. "I'm going to win-in-in-in-in. I know I have it in me-e-e-e-e-e-e. "

I totally agree. I'm not a Helen fan, she grates on my nerves. But, I think she looked incredibly fit. I don't understand all the anorexic comments I've read. 117 is nowhere near anorexic. Heck, I wish I could drop 20 pounds and get back to 117! That'll never happen!!

Jillian was on the news last night, talking about "behind the scenes" type stuff...

She said that Sione and Filipe used to sneak off campus to binge on fast food, so their off-campus privileges were taken away. She also said they used to break into the food stuff on the ranch and binge.

Can't remember what else she said though...

 

[dispor]

I think the best dressed award should go to Nicole, followed by - believe it or not - Joelle.

Worst dressed goes to eveyone else, especially Tara (who should know better!), Helen and Carla.

Glad to see that Max looked "happier" than usual. His mother kept looking at him like she expected to see him get upset.

 

[lacrosse_lady72]

wtg Helen. I think a lot of people thought Tara was going to win but I was ok with any of them.

and...

WTG JERRY! Wow he beat out all those kids (to him) at currently 64. Good job for him, he did so well.

Good job to all of them, wasn't the least amount of weight lost 80 pounds? That's still A LOT! Congrats to all of them.

I cannot stand those two arrogant a-holes. That's stupid screaming thing that they do I couldn't FF fast enough last night. Yuck to both of them.

Is there a link to Jillian's interview? I would like to hear what she has to say. She's my fave!

I have to admit that I am STUNNED that Tara didn't win And, maybe it's just me, but I think that SHE thought she was going to win too when she got on the scale. She seemed STUNNED at her final weight (as if her scale at home was giving her a lower number).

I am NOT happy that Helen won. Hopefully she will put a few pounds on now because she is too thin.

I think Tara thought she had won too. look how she made her "grand entrance", I'm glad she lost only because I couldn't stand her "I'm so amazing" attitude. I was sorry to see Helen win, because it looked like she starved herself and maybe purged(laxatives, etc.) to get to that weight, she did not look healthy at all. Mike looked the best, healthiest out of the three. Even Jerry seemed to thin to me. Congrats to him and all, but IMO he didn't look very good.

I wanted Mike to win.

Have you seen the new "got milk?" ad with Helen? I just saw it on people.com .

Yes, link please! Or a transcript or something. I love to read the behind the scenes stuff!

Me too. I think his transformation really was the best! What a hottie hiding under all that fat. he is definitely gonna need plastic surgery though, so I wish he would have won the money!

Helen was quite skinny, but honestly, I'd starve myself for a few weeks to win $250K too!

No David only lost 43 lbs and I think Aubrey lost 55. I don't remembe what she weighed when she left the ranch, but I think it was close to that then.

Hehe...I agree! With both parts!

 

[Ohiodislover]

According to wikipedia, David weighed 347 when he came back and competed against nicolle, and estelle for the chance to come back. Last night he was at 350#.

Aubrey weighed 191, when she left, and last night weighed 194.

Here is a link. Interesting read

Anybody watching QVC. Helen, and Ali are on. Helen still looks a little too thin, IMO, but doesn't look nearly as dehydrated as she did last night.
