Biggest Loser Final Twist.

[johde]

The Final Twist is that 1 of the eliminated players will win $100,000. So, the question is Who do you think should win? I am rooting for either Andrea, or Aaron.

Thought it was 2 hours--was watching Amazing Race and missed the end...oops---

so they go on for another week?

Did they weigh in--I guess the dude with glasses lost the least?

 

[faireygod mother]

I missed it also. Anyone know who one?

 

[Tera]

Wow! Those guys looked great!!!

Ryan won, losing 122 pounds. Gary was second, losing 71 pounds (but lost more body fat I think) and Kelly was third, losing 74 pounds.

Gary almost looked TOO skinny, being 5'10" and only 156 pounds. I thought that was too low, but I guess he was going for the loss. Ryan, being as annoying as he was, looked REALLY good. Kelly looked really good too and was down to like 163.

I thought I heard 2 hours too and missed the beginning because of a meeting, but caught the most important part, THE WEIGH IN.

Next week they'll weigh in the other contestants for $100,000. I didn't see Andrea, but I did see Aaron and he looked REALLY GOOD I guess it'll be on before American Idol next week.

they added weight loss % with body fat loss % and the winner had the biggest total - Ryan won by one point!
I feel both Ryan & Gary are at the end of their weight loss journey - now to maintain
Does anyone think weight loss sometimes makes a person look older? Gary? My MIL told me last spring that sometimes people look older when they loose weight - the loss of chubby cheeks
Kelly could loose another 10-20lbs And what was with Kelly always putting her hands on her hips?

and yes I did see Dray there too

And what was with Kelly always putting her hands on her hips?

I'm guessing she was trying to make her arms look smaller in the sleeveless dress? I thought they all looked amazing. I wish Gary could have nosed out Ryan, though...how frustrating it must have been to have lost by one percentage point. Kelly really impressed me the most, though--for a woman to lose 79 pounds in that time frame, you know how hard she must have worked. I hope she continues on and finishes up.

I'll be interested to see next week's show. I saw alot of those folks on Larry King Monday night and they've all lost a good bit of weight. I'm guessing it will be a close competition, but I think Aaron, Andrea, Kelly Mac and Lisa all have a good shot at it. Wonder if they'll measure their body fat, too?

Watching the show last night really inspired me. I'm down to the last 20-25 pounds I need to lose, and it's been a huge psychological hurdle to me. As a result, I haven't made a lot of progress in recent months. Watching the show really made me want to turn it up a notch and get the rest of this weight off. I'm tired of being so close yet so far!

Or does it almost seem unfair to have men & women compete against each other - (Men being capable of lower body fat, not really being water retainers, etc)? I know it is for the greatest LOSS but Kelly did an AMAZING job and still lost by 5 points - that's a big difference! I think if Aaron & Matt were allowed to remain their losses may have beaten her's as well. Maybe next time it should be 125,000 to the biggest male & female losers.
Just my biased $.02

Gary was the one with the kids, right? I all of a sudden cannot remember who was who. I do not think they looked any older though, In fact I thought they looked younger and fresher. I too was inspired.

 

[Tera]

Right... Gary had kids (I think 2), Ryan has just a wife and Kelly is single.

I think they all looked younger, but Gary was almost looked TOO thin.

I agree about having it two separate groups for men and women. It's tough enough for us to lose weight, and then add TOM and all that other crap that comes along with being a woman. I think Kelly looked awesome, but Ryan did lose 122 pounds, which is unbelievable for that time frame. I'd like to see these guys in a year and see how they are doing.

I think the winner next week will be a guy because of the whole fat % factor. Aaron looked the best, but I didn't get to see everyone.

I was hoping they would show that weigh in the other night as well as the 3 finalists. I was wondering if they would include Kelly & Gary in the weigh in for the $100,000. After all they made it to the end, but will come away with no $$$ if I understand coorrectly

I'm also wondering.........is anyone here going to try & get on Biggest Loser 2?

 

[Stepharoonie!]

I'm glad Ryan won, I liked him the best Gary needs to add on 5-10 pounds, he looked a little sickly.

 

[Valentine]

I am wondering if they are going to let Kelly and Gary be eligible for the 100,000... it seemed that only the others already eliminated prior to the final 3 were going to be allowed to wi next week.... what do you all think??
