Well Helen has plenty money now to get all that loose skin tighten up and then have some left over for a second honeymoon or what ever she chooses.

Yep, that is what I bet she'll do.. a good surgeon will make her wait for a time, so she can stablize her weight after toning muscles and then snippety-snip and tuckety-tuck.

Alison Sweeney twittered that they have started the new Biggest Loser season. She says she has met the new contestants and they are amazing folks.

I didn't think Helen looked good either. I'm 20 pounds over weight and afraid I'll look like that if I loose the weight now. I'm 47 and I don't all my wrinkles to show :-)

Helen was on the Ellen DeGeneris show today. She talked about how she waited in the Michigan cold for 10 and a half hours in order to audition for The Biggest Loser-Couples. No mention was made of her daughter waiting with her.

So how did that work? Could you apply as an individual and the couple factor was applied later or did you have to audition as a couple?

That is possible.. when BB has wanted pairs, they often find a person they like and then use their questionnaire to find people to bring in for or against or with them, sh Shanon could have been there...

Hard to say about BL.

However, Helen is pretty free with the words "I" and "me".

It may just be my perception but as a group I'm rather surprised that these people didn't lose more weight. They had quite a long time to lose it (compared to some seasons) and yet most of them didn't achieve the percentages that we saw in past seasons.

Ketchup.. that must be what I chose too..

I CHOSE TOES..

Jimmmer, indeed.. they had longer to lose and most of them had more to lose, yet the winner was one with almost the least to lose and she overdid it. I will say that there are fewer who look like they lost too much too fast this time (Helen and Jerry being in that group), but also more who barely lost at all.

Ron did well, but sort of at the expense of quite a few others who might have used more ranch time, not that he cares..

The Biggest Loser showed Dane or Blaine (can't remember which one) in a marathon earlier this season. They portrayed him as completing the full race but it turned out that he didn't run the entire race. So people tend to be a little more suspicious now about stuff that is shown.

I know I'm really late in responding. Sorry, about that. *shakes head* But thanks for explaining Jimmer. I was unaware of that. Yeah. I can see how people might begin to distrust the editing after something like that.

UGH. I can't believe Helen won!!!! The funny thing is. I thought she had the least likely chance of winning out of the three of them! I honestly didn't even count her as being in the running because I thought FOR SURE that it would be Tara or Mike.

But meh. Oh well. I agree with those who are saying that Tara and Mike look WAY healthier than Helen and that is what is the most important. I think Tara is beautiful and she looks to be at a great weight. I'm thinking she found a good balance which i was happy about. I know that she had a lot of issues with wanting to go overboard with the exercising and I think she had the potential to go to far.

Glad to see her at such a perfect weight. AND OMG Mike was so CUTE. I mean I have been crushing on that boy for awhile but good grief! I love how he smiles and his nose crinkles on one side. *happy sigh* He is such a looker.

Personally, I am really disappointed that Helen won. Tara was so undefeated this season that I really wanted her to take home the title of BL. And not that i want Helen to gain weight in an unhealthy way, but I think that woman needs to gain a few pounds!! lol

Helen didn't look healthy - almost in a "she might have had a little chemical help" not healthy. Do they test them for diet pill etc. use?

Yesterday I walked the ~ 12K ~ Bay to Breakers in SF, after the Finish Line I saw a group of people wearing white Biggest Loser shirts, I took a closer look & there was Jerry! He looked great ~ he's tall!

Oh that must have been fun Mysti and great that you did the walk! I noticed how tall Jerry is when watching the final. I hadn't noticed early in the season when he was on the show but I guess that was partly because he was so wide as well as tall at that point.

I didn't expect Helen to win, either. I did not think she would be able to resist the temptation of the drink and the smoke.

As I watched the last night of Biggest Looser I felt bad for Mikes Brother! Everytime it flashed to him he looked sad to me! I mean I am sure after his Dad and Brother got to go in and now has lost all that weight he is feeling lost in the shuffle and probably way worse about himself! I so hope he gets help to loose the weight!
