did anyone watch the finale of Biggest Loser on NBC? I think they all looked great and are such an inspiration!! Good for them. Can't wait till next week to see who wins the 100grand!!
 
Yeah they looked awesome. I couldn't believe it. You didn't put spoiler in the title so I am going to post a SPOILER below:
















I can not believe that Ryan won by 1 point. Did anyone think that was suspicious? It was hard to believe that his body fat percentage went down only 18% after losing 122 pounds. Maybe I'm bitter, because I was pulling for Gary.

I was floored when I saw that....cuz I thought Gary and Ryan would be real close. It is hard to believe he lost only 18% fat...but that is a lot!! Besides, it's easier to lose more fat percentage when you lose more pounds! Guess that's why they did it that way!

I think that women should be spotted 5 percentage points or so. It's a well known fact that it's harder for women to lose weight, especially the "fat" part. Plus, what if it's "that time of the month?"

I knew that one of the guys would win when I first started watching this show.

On the other hand - good for all of them! I certainly hope they keep it off. I was reading an article about it in TV Guide (I think), and one of the women was talking about how she running for an hour every morning and working out in the gym 2 hours every evening. This really just isn't reasonable for her to keep this up forever.

Whoa, definitely wasn't flaming you, I was trying to avoid other people getting upset because we ruined the result for them. Whoa.
 
I really enjoyed this whole show. I agree they all looked fantastic. I can't wait to see nexts weeks to see who did the best after being voted off.

Wouldn't it be a hoot one time if they did Celebrity one? Could you see Rosie on it.
 
Wow! Didn't they look terrific in their new bodies? I'm so proud of each of them, making it through the holidays and continuing to lose the weight. They truly are an inspiration.

Mary Anne - I though there was a celebrity version. I recall seeing ads for it, but couldn't tell ya when it was on or what network.
 
I thought the show was great as well. I also had hoped Gary won but they all did a great job.I cant wait to see next weeks show.
There is another celebrity weight loss show on,its on Sundays on VH1 and called Celebrity Fit Club,I caught the first episode this past week,kind of good. Curious to see how it does in the long run. The 8 celebrities on the show are:Daniel Baldwin,Kim Coles (Living Single),Joe Gannascoli (The Sopranos), Judge Mablean Ephriam (Divorce Court), Biz Markie, Ralphie May (Last Comic Standing), Mia Tyler and Wendy Kauffman (The Snapple Lady.)
The host of the show is Ant,also from Last Comic Standing,he cracks me up!

I was hoping Ryan or Gary would win. Didn't like Kelly. However something they're doing with this show annoyed me. They said one of the people next week would win $100,000. This way they get a whole nother show to get more ratings too. But what about the other 2 in the final 3??? Do they get any money? If so, fine, but if not thats not fair that they get nothing and then someone who was kicked off is getting all this money.
 
izzy-- i agree....they cannot keep up that many hours of working out. but, i think they put it into high gear for the show. i think once they reach their goal (or close to it), and they find they cannot lose any more weight, I think they will do enough exercise to maintain their weight and just build on muscle.

iloveDMB--i know you weren't "flaming" me....I just didn't want to be the one to give away the spoiler :teeth: ...by all means......

and....

Minnie824-- I agree that Kelly and Gary should have gotten something.....maybe they did and we don't know it, but, hopefully they did. I know Gary was really counting on that money. Maybe I can find somewhere if they got anything.......
 
It turned out to be a pretty good series. I, too, liked Gary & Ryan. I didn't care for Kelly. She just seemed to "high maintance". I also did not like the last girl that got kicked off, was it Lisa? She was just to "in love" with herself.

I don't think #2 & 3 got any money. When Gary beat Kelly, the host told Kelly her consolutation prize was her "hot babe" body (or something to that effect.)

I do wish they would have shown how the dieted and changed their eating habits.

I still like Mo. I wish they'd bring him back for BL 2! His starting point would be about where Ryan started. I'd like to see if he really can loose all his weight!

*I* think for the next show, they should choose a male & female winner. Men & women just to not loose weight in the same way.

I thought of that also. They should get something! :earseek:
They all did look great. Even if they don't have the money, you can see they won so much more in their attitude about themselves. ( But it sure would help a little more!)
 
I was rooting for Ryan. Out of the three he had the greatest results and looked the most changed. He really worked his butt off during the last weeks while at home. I thought Gary looked great too but wasn't enough for me to want him to win. I was stunned that Kelly had lost so much because to me it didn't look like she had went down that far. Out of the 3 she still has a lot of work to do. I was very happy with the results but do think it unfair that the two runner-ups get nothing. I hope that isn't the case.

ITA....this would have been so helpful/educational/inspiring to so many others. Most who watched may figure it's mostly working your butt off and exercising....when, it is a combo of diet and exercise. I wish they would have also mentioned/emphasized "portion control". That is how I lost 33 pounds myself. I still ate the same stuff, but for dinner it was on a luncheon plate..not a dinner plate. I had mostly meat and veggies, with maybe a table/teaspoon of carbs (stuffing, mash potato, noodles, etc). Almost filling a smaller plate played a really good trick on my brain...when I ate most of the plate of food, I felt full--even though I was eating less. Oh, and while watching what I ate, ONE sweet a day...at any time of the day. (Tried to save it for after dinner!)....and nothing to eat after 7. I am a very strong advocate for portion control, only cuz it worked so well for me!!
 
I enjoyed this show too, however, I did not care for the host AT ALL. I really thought she was terrible. I thought they all looked great and worked very hard. They should be proud of themselves. I agree that Gary and Kelly should have received something.

Does anyone else agree with me about the host, Caroline Rea (sp)?
 
I agree Caroline was not a good host.

I also agree that the other two should get something also, to give those voted off $100,000 and them nothing does not seem fair. In all honesty though those voted off had no idea they were even still in it. I can't wait to see which one of them really kept it up after leaving.
 
They all looked so great. I have to admit, though...the whole season this show was running, I felt bad every time I picked up a piece of chocolate, etc. I kept thinking- "If they can resist, I should too", but then I ate it anyway! Kelly is like 10 or so pounds more than me now...makes me think I should get to exercising!!!
 
I was rooting for Gary, but am glad Ryan won. They all look fantastic.

I agree. I couldn't stand her on that Sabrina the teenage witch show many years ago. I don't know how she was even chosen for this show.
