Premieres two weeks from tomorrow. I hope this thread isn't too premature. If they want to lose weight they should have them eat at Hell's Kitchen

Looking forward to this. The first show (the one on Sept. 4th) is actually a reunion show covering the first 3 seasons. Will be interesting to see how many kept off the weight, how many slipped a little and how many slipped a lot. I went to the site and watched a little bit of the new facilities tour... looks like its set up like a campus, no more ranch.

I hope that Susie and Matt are on! I'm looking forward to seeing the contestants from years past (never saw Season 1 though).

I think I read in TV Guide that Jillian will be back this season.

Kai is an aerobics instructor. I can see running away from her would have multiple benefits

What I read in TV Guide is that Bob and whatzername will be training two teams on the Ranch as usual. Jillian will secretly be training a 3rd team... Then I guess at some point it will all come to a head.

Popping in to say that many Days fans have watched Sweeny grow up from a teen to a lovely young lady.

I met someone who came home from the ranch in June. (met her at 24 Hour Fitness) She said she had lost about 40 lbs on the ranch and that this year they had chosen larger females in order to give the females a better chance at winning. When I asked her if it was as tuff at the ranch as it appears...she said it was much worse and that she lost toenails while she was there. Look for a dark haired young female from around the Houston, Pasadena, or Clear Lake, Texas area.

Wow, I wonder how you lose toenails while losing weight? Allison Sweeney is a very talented young lady who has had her issues with weight all through her teenage years. She took the weight off and has kept it off. She has a very active lifestyle. She exercises and eats well and chases her young child around. I'm looking forward to the show with her as the hostess. I liked Caroline Rhea, but I feel that Allison will relate more to the oontestants.

I lost some toenails while mountain climbing in Austria (1 week) in borrowed shoes that were too big. Maybe 35+ years ago.

It's probably from rubbing inside the workout shoes.

I thought alot of it was pretentious. I can't wait to see Jillian this season. I forgive Suzy because she just had a baby...but Matt's just plain gotten fat again.

How many were on tonight? How many maintained? How many gained some back? How many gained most of it back?

I am not sure what I think yet. Optimist... the folks that were on last night looked good. They had all regained a few pounds up to about 35lbs but considering the massive amount they had lost it was great that they maintained the vast majority of the losses (not counting Matt and Sue). Pessimist - they only had about ten folks on out of how many? Are these the only ten with long-term success? Do they do a disservice by not acknowledging that its a life-long issue and success is not a guarantee? Back to optimist... how cool is it that a bunch of them have switched careers into the fitness industry? Back to pessimist.. does that mean they switched from a food addiction to a exercise addiction? For example, what Poppy claims to be working out everyday seems excessive to me. Anyway, I enjoyed the energy level of the show although the tag-line was annoying after so many repetitions and I can't wait for the new season to start.

I was really impressed with the two guys from last year ( sorry can't remember their names, the winner and the black guy) and Pete. They have really used their success. I thought they all looked good, and Matt may have gained quite a bit back but he is nowhere near the size he once was. I plan on watching each week while on the treadmill. PS the tag line irritated me to no end, I'll reserve judgement on the host, as long as it's not the one from "on the lot" I'm good.
