The Biggest Loser: MICHELLE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kae]

That is the show propping this in-fighting up. They could have edited it out, instead the producers have egged it on.

I am sure BOB AND JILLIAN are absolutely disgusted. I can see it in Bob's face.
Esp when he saw AMY, wife of Phil....I swear Bob was crying.

Even so you can just tell that Vicki is not a nice person the first show she didn't do the challage why didn't deem it important, another challage prize to talk to family again she was like not important. She is not a nice person. And Heba she is a spolied little girl. And they are both married to saps.

Exactly. When Vicki didn't do that challenge because she didn't like the prize, Bob was ticked. I think that's when he realized it was all about the money to her. Things like that are what make me think he won't be too angry with Amy.

The scheming is what annoys me. It's clear to me that Vicky is an adept manipulator. People who are good at manipulating others realize where another is weak and susceptible to suggestion and manipulation. She has used her abilities to turn Heba into something that posters here say she is not, and to sow ******* among all of the other participants.

She very cognizantly realized that Phil and Amy were threats to her plans. So, she manipulated Heba into turning on them. She also understands that some people thrive on adversity. She realized that Phil is not one of these people. Phil is the sort that gets flustered by that kind of adversity, and she knew it. So, she did everything she could to fluster him, which made him perform poorly in the weigh-ins. The treatment of Phil affected Amy, and within a few weeks they were both gone. She is smart enough to realize that at the end of the day the contestants control their own destinies via weight loss, and so manipulating someone psychologically into performing poorly is something I'm sure she thought was genius.

If this show were intended to be "Big Brother on a Treadmill" some would be applauding her game planning. But, this show has never been billed as that kind of show. It's been billed as a game that focuses on the weight loss of all of the participants first and the competitive nature of the game second. I prefer the way it used to be. In prior seasons there has been strategizing, but the contestants all realized that when you show up for the weigh-in, you leave it all on the field, and let your weight loss results speak for themselves. In prior seasons it often seemed that those doing the voting were truly torn by their decisions and only made the decision because they were forced to do so; most truly did not want to send anyone home. I don't get that vibe this season; it seems that certain contestants definitely relish the opportunity they have to kick other contestants off the show. It's pathetic.

Vicky is not smart; she's cunning. There is a difference. She should have seen Amy's "betrayal" coming from a mile away. She got too complacent and assumed that Amy was too stupid to figure out that she was the first in line to be sent to the glue factory in the event of a double-blue below the line. I applaud Amy for making the wise decision even though she knew it would likely spell difficult times for her ahead. She controls her own destiny. If she can thrive off of the adversity (or at least block it out), she can foil any "revenge" by continuing to lose weight. That's what I love about this show. You can scheme all you want, but if the person you dislike continues to drop the pounds, they get to stand on their own merit. It's one of the "fairest" game shows I've seen. I hate that a single contestant has decided to turn it into her own junior high playground.

Heba and Vicky are a complete disgrace. Even if Phil was the bully (which I doubt he was) Vicky and Heba should have been the adults and let it blow over. Vicky and her husband are sure a bad influence on their children. Their behavior is showing their children that it's OK to be a bully, and it's NOT!! I feel sorry for their children.

 

[lulubelle]

Even Bob has said a couple of times "Vicky is in control of this game". And then he has a worried look on his face. I don't know if NBC thinks this type of behaviour will increase ratings or not, but I for one, love the show WITHOUT all this drama. We were pulling for Stacy, but geesh, does she have to cry so much? We are pretty fed up with Wicked-Vicky and her side kick Heba.

God I hope she goes home next week.

Coleen is my favorite, followed by Amy.

It seems we are not the only people highly freaked about Vicky's behavior along with Heba. The folks over at iVillage are giving Brady an earful on his blog!

It's not pretty that's for sure.

Of course, we are all assuming the note was written by Vicky...

It wouldn't be the first time BL has tricked us with a preview.

And what about Ed saying that Vicky will "claw your eyes out." LOL! I bet Vicky sees that as a compliment!

Did anyone else notice how Brady's daughter didn't even get off the swing to greet him?

First of all their kiddos are adorable BUT sheesh, ya, do you think for a split second she did not recognize him.....hmm.....that was odd!!! But I am glad Brady is going to get the kids into eating good solid healthy meals.

And those comments on his blog are well..... There are some angry viewers posting..........I would love a comment from Brady on all that!!!

Not a nice person? You are too kind. I would hate to meet her in a dark alley.

After last night, I think Amy turned into my favorite I was so happy she voted one of "the four" out! I just hope she can stay above that line next week.

Quikslvr: What a wonderful synopsis! I totally agree. This season is on strategy-overload compared to past seasons. Let's hope NBC can get back to the original purpose of the show next time. I am not impressed by the clump of 40-something-pound losses at this point. Past individuals were into the 60-70 pound losses by now and starting to look very toned and fit. Enough already with the Survivor behaviors--let's see some RESULTS

 

[Ride Junkie]

If evil Vicky gets in Amy’s face about her vote, I hope someone will step in and point out the following to her:

1. Amy was not the only person who voted for Brady. Three people voted for him, causing the tie.
2. If Brady hadn’t had the lowest weight, he wouldn’t have gone home. So that’s his own fault.
3. If Amy was in the final five with you four, do you really think she’s stupid enough to believe that you would keep her around? She would be the first one voted out. So get out of her face.

I really wish it would have been Brady and Vicky in the bottom two. That would have been beautiful. Go Amy!!

Thank you! I didn't tune in last night just because this isn't the Heba I know. I think when they gave the Red Team their extra phone call home was the last time I saw the Heba I know. I really feel that Vicky/Brady has controlled Heba/Ed all the way. I hope they will wake up!!

I really think it's editing....NBC is wanting everyone hate Vicky/Brady that it's scary! I wonder what they have in store for them. They do need to get back to the purpose of the show and stop the high school drama.

I still will not watch next week....I just can't see a nice person turn the way she has.

I do not think they could edit when she was yelling at ED to keep going, she was not being encourging she was being bossy. Just like it was ok for her to be upset about Ed going home but when others lost their partner she was like suck it up. She made the teams the way she wanted & she separated couples just to be mean. She is a control freak.

to you, NC State. It has to be tough to watch.

 

[CajunDixie]

I think when this is all done and over and Heba watches all the shows she'll be calling quite a few people and apologizing for letting OmaVicky influence her.

I agree....those boys are the easiest to see the non-results on. Coleen really seems to be the only one who is truly working at and seeing the fruits of her labor.

 

[CajunDixie]

I posted this on the ivillage link also...The more I think about the show the more I think they need to bring in an expert. They bring in trainers for exercise, Drs concerning their physical health, chefs for healthy meals, makeover experts for the new wardrobe/hair style ideas so why not bring in a shrink for the blue team. Seriously everywhere we read things about this show and the 4some on the blue team the more everyone agrees they are nuts. So why not bring in a shrink to talk to OmaVicky?

 

[NAB]

Didn't Jillian do that one year and Bob just laughed at her. But it was to find out why they eat etc.

I agree with you all they need help.

Those poor kids of theirs too. I did notice that the girl did not get off the swing last night when he dad came out. Thought that was strange.
