The Biggest Loser

[kayeandjim00]

I would probably have been rooting for Ryan but the mean way he handled voting off the girl early on - I can't remember her name though - just totally turned me against him. I can't imagine being so insensitive to someone. Gary I didn't like because of how he handled voting off Kelly so that leaves me with the other Kelly who I actually like best. I'm rooting for her but expecting the winner to be Ryan. I was glad they voted off Mo because even though I liked his personality I didn't think he tried as hard as the others. I think that this added twist of a few months of real life makes the show even better because we all know how hard real life and dieting can be. I'm already looking forward to the Biggest Loser 2

I don't think I worded my question very well. How long are they in the real world between leaving the show and the final weigh-in? Is it just one week?

Caroline kept saying they were going home for a couple months. So I don't know if she meant they did 3 months at the ranch & then 3 months at home.

I just can't wait to see all of them next week.

I think it's interesting--and the long period is so that they can really test themselves.

Going home for even a month--doesn't show long term staying power with a new way of life--the multiple months is more realistic.

I love this show--wish it didn't bump up against Amazing Race though .

WAIT!!! Is this some sort of reality television program?

Yep. Ryan is in first place -he has lost 90 pounds over the course of the show! I believe they worked out 4 hours a day.

There's an article in next week's TV guide (Jan 9-15) about the 3 finalists. As of the writing of the article, Ryan was up to 97 lbs lost, Gary was up to 65 lbs lost, & Kelly was up to 72 lbs lost. I'm not surewhen those weigh ins occured though.
Of the 3 people left, I hope Kelly wins, mostly because I thought both of the guys were really mean to other contestants at one time or another. I was really hoping Dre would win, but since she's already been voted off I'm rooting for Kelly.
