Seth looks the best of the three left. I still think Matt can pull out the win, though.

As my mom used to say, "He's such a bawl-bag."

OKay, I have a question. HOw is it that after three months and losing so much weight, they all have clothing that fits them so well???? I mean, they couldn't have brought the smaller size stuff with them. I guess they have a wardrobe department to choose things from?

They all look fantastic. Suzie is a cutie!

I think Matt is going to be hard to beat if they go on percentages for the final evaluation.

I sure would love to see Suzie win it, but I think that's totally unrealistic.

they have to also have a budget so they can buy new clothes when the old is way to big, i guess..... i have ahunch that suzy will be the biggest loser if you take in the percentage, i really do have a strong hunch, but if a guy wins it, hope next time they will have 2 a male and female biggest loser, since its kinda obvious now the men do have more of a advantage, unless they can find some 300 t0 350 pound ladies like they do for the men,lol.. and it looks like they all have to put in 5 hours a day of some kind of exercise, which is unreal to me,lol.... also what about having abiggest loser marathon say 10 miles for all the contestanst of season one and two and say give the top 5 times some kind of nice monetary prize, show that ona prime time special ,i bey alot would watch it, i would for sure.

I would suspect that is the case.

You're right, Max. Suzie is a cutie.

Thank God there is one more episode left. Seriously. Thank God.

Tonight's episode grated on my nerves so freaking much.

There was:

-Matt scowling at the beginning of the show
-Matt crying when he saw his coach
-Matt crying when he saw his friend
-Matt crying after they both left
-Matt kissing the scale
-Matt bouncing off the walls because he lost 10lbs
-Matt crying after seeing his fat self cutout
-Matt crying on Jillian's shoulder
-Matt kissing his fat self cutout
-A closeup of Matt scowling in a "before" photo
-And, I think, Matt crying when he went home

This has been The (freaking) Matt Show practically since the first episode. If Seth wins, it will be strange because we barely know anything about the guy because Matt was the one who got most of the airtime.

I totally agree Scorpiomoon!

Can anyone provide a brief synopsis of what happened at the end of the show? I fell asleep on the couch right before Matt's weigh-in.

Mzzlissa: Matt weighs in and discovers he lost ten pounds. He kneels down and kisses the scale then tries to contain his excitement, but can't. He knows with that kind of loss that he will be in the final three.

Susie and Andrea are the ones up for elimination.

Everyone does one last workout.

At the elimination, Andrea is voted out. Her and Susie say goodbye to each other.

Then, one by one each of the three go and talk to their trainer. They are shown cutouts of themselves as they looked when they first got there. Everyone cries as the trainers tell them how proud they are.

Seth, Matt and Susie pack and take limos home. The how ends with scenes of each one of them walking up to their homes while friends and family are waiting to greet them.

Howdy all. I record this show but only watch from the weight in on, so I am not much of an expert on this show.

Comment: Kudos to Matt and Seth for keeping the best competitor instead of trying to eliminate the biggest threat.

Question: I can't get Andrea's video on NBC.com to come up on three different computers, has anyone seen it. Did she continue to lose weight or did she do a backslide?

Wow, keep trying for Andrea's video. She looks AWESOME! So slim and fit. It is worth watching!

She is probably the closest to me in body proportions, so I watch her more closely. I don't weigh as much as her when she began, though. She wasn't my favorite contestant, but I was glad she stuck around as long as she did. I'd be tempted to go on this show, but I wouldn't want to be gone from my life for 3 months.

I'm pretty happy with the final 3. I don't want Matt to win, but I have a feeling he will. He just cries too much. I paused the TV when they previewed Suzy for next week. Her face looks soooo skinny! I can't imagine what the rest of her will look like.

I think Seth looks so different. I loved his reaction when he saw the cut out of himself. He's really cute now.

I'm going to miss this show when it's over.

Finally got thru. Andrea wants to lose another 20, but she looks really good right now.

I too did a freeze on the glimpse of Suzie next week. Wow she really went for the win it appears, but I am still betting Matt.

I'm looking forward to the finale, too! I would have been happy with any number of these contestants. I don't really see Susie as the bigger competitor than Andrea - I think they just like her better :o). Susie usually came in at the bottom of the pack in weigh-ins (except when her team won excemptions).
AND, might I say YAY!!!! for her getting rid of those nasty glasses! She looks sooooo much prettier without them making her eyes look so distorted.
I still am rooting for Matt - He has done so well, and his being an emotional person doesn't bother me one whit.

I dont think that Suzie was kept because she was the best competitor...Andrea had lots more weight to lose therefore had a chance at catching up to the guys.

Suzie already is within 40lbs of goal weight.....Andrea still had at least 60lbs to lose. The guys know that Suzie doesnt have a chance to win/ Andrea possibly could therefore eliminate Andrea.

**********
I hate to be a Grump but Matt has not done well. He has been manipulative and verbally aggressive with people throughout the show...even Gillian. He cheated on the diet a number of times then blew it off as "he knows it isnt a problem because he used to do it when he was in competition." Matt is a person who wears his emotions on his sleeve and it bothered me a lot as he seemed to have NO control.

I really dont know. I hope Seth continues with his weightloss and overtakes Matt...but it is unlikely.

Remember last year's second winner....that guy who owned a gym won a prize even though he wasnt even on the show anymore?? Well it is about supplements etc...Matt was a competitor....he knows about all of the ways to quickly burn off weight a few weeks before a comp.

I will be shocked if Matt doesnt have the weight completely off and is UNDER weight by the time of the comp finale'. He had the gym knowledge
and pretty good muscletone even before this show started. I still think that the throwing up etc (the beginning of the show) was simply his body adjusting to lack of booze. It really is like going thru detox quitting drinking cold turkey. Good for Matt and I am glad that he admitted to his drinking problem. I only hope that he doesnt continue with his depression and swing back.

Hoping SETH wins it all!!

I thought Andrea was the one who always came in at the bottom of the weigh-ins, even when they were still men vs. women. Isn't that why the men got mad and insulted their intelligence when they voted out the women who were losing more? Suzy was usually one of the better of the female losers, especially in the final weeks. Andrea was the one who kept falling below the line, but the men kept her in so they could target the bigger threats. She looks great now, so maybe she'll win the $100,000.

If this competition went strictly by weight loss rather than voting we'd be seeing an all male finale. Andrea and Suzy made it to the final four because it was better for the men's strategy and not because men and women lose weight equally. I'm really happy for them because they look fantastic, but in the end I still don't see a woman winning this. Hope I'm wrong, but if not I hope Seth wins. They really do need to have a first place prize for each gender.

I agree, Curlyq. Pitting the men against the women just doesn't work. If they want to keep it men and women, then they need a formula that's more complicated than a simple percentage.

Its nice to see so many people are waiting and hoping for the best when the final three went home. Seth looks so much better, its hard to believe he is the same person we saw at the beginning.
