Tess, I agree with you! I wish the show was more about weight loss, exercise, healthy eating, healthy living, etc., but I also know that it's a tv show and so the producers want drama, game play, etc. It's a shame when people who are seriously there to lose weight are eliminated early in the season and only get to try for the "Biggest Loser at Home" award.

Cricket you are right but the *consequences* are only if they GAIN weight. As long as they are clever/lucky enough to keep their weight loss small enough to manipulate without going negative they are safe from repercussion. Ahh, thanks, Rissa. I keep hoping once they are individuals there is some way Bob can sabotaqe Vicky, lol. Even better would be her having to train with Jillian.

mark, roger,jay and the brown team couple from that season and ali were on oprah today with bob and gillian. they ALL look amazing.. matt,erik,susy were all on as well, some of them have gained back not all but alot of the weight. they talked about how hard it is to go back to normal and have everyone scrutinize them when they are out in public.

Tess ITA - and the beginning of this season it seemed as if they were going that route!! I loved that the team that went below the yellow line was up for elimination! But if they water load, it has to be spelled out as cheating - and consequences - but its not my show, so I have no idea how they could fix what they (TPTB/producers) created! (ie monsters intent on winning) And as long as the show has room for alliances, and an outcome for $$ there is going to be those smart alecks that will find a way to cheat! Suzy had 2 babies!! She was her usually cute self!!

I really enjoyed seeing the Biggest Loser Alums on Oprah. Bob was inspiring telling folks to not wait to for a certain date to get started but to just start. The message I heard from both Ali and Julie was that they somehow felt they didn't deserve to spend time and energy on themselves. I think that's huge! How many of us put ourselves last...which means we never do the things we need to do to take care of ourselves, because there isn't enough time in the day. HUGE message there. I loved how Mark is still boohooing all over the place. I laughed right out loud when he said, "Don't anybody move. I'll probably start crying." And when Roger came out...first words out of my mouth were "PRIDE ON THREE!!!" Gosh! I miss those folks! Just like seeing old friends!

Except for a couple, Ali and Julie, most had gained some weight back. I feel that is ineveitable since they continue an unreal schedule once they leave the ranch till the finale, after that I am sure most have to get back to real life. Jillian said on the ranch they exercise about 6 hrs per day but that she expects people to only get in about 6 hrs per week in real life. Matt and Suzy had gained the most back but then again, they are the fartherest out (time wise) from their show/finale. Suzy also had just given birth to their second son 5 weeks earlier. It just goes to prove the old addage.....the hardest part is keeping it off. that old saying about changing/making a new habit in three weeks is BS when it comes to exercise, least that has been my experience and seems to be the same with many others. Ryan from S1 was on....I think most of his weight is back also. I once exercised at least 5 times per week (at least 10 hours per week)treadmill, swimming, dancing, and weights for over 1 1/2 years....I never grew to like it and it didn't last. I loved seeing them all again and wished we could have seen many others.

Awwwwww...I am with you Mary. I just watched it and it was like seeing old friends. I thought they looked great. Even with the ones who had gained, they weren't at their old weights. Suzy and Matt are some of my faves. I loved their season. And Crying Mark, I have a soft spot for him too. I didn't always like him on the show, but he is the personality type of several of my friends who I love in spite of the fact that they drive me crazy sometimes. I think I would like him in real life. And none of them retained that sickly look that some have at the end of the season. I had worried about Ali especially, but she looks healthy to me now. She is tiny, though!

Did I miss an announcement that this show was skipping a week? I thought they would just move it to tonight like Dancing with the Stars did.
