Coach Mo is just way too nice. Or she just does it her way no matter what. Coach Mo should have had his say in who was going home as she made all the decisions without consulting him last week.

You can lose weight without exercise if you eat below your maintenance calories. Also she may have eaten a lot of fiber and or low fat food. But of course you won't get in shape that way either.

Tracy didn't injure a muscle, she injured her entire body. In the first epi, when she thought she could out run Dan on that 1 mile race, she collapsed from heat exhaustion/ dehydration. Bsically, she did damage to everything--kidneys, liver, etc.

Tracy's face scares me. Her expressions are OTT and usually inappropriate to what's happening. She could be quite good looking but the calisthenics she puts her face through make her look very ugly.

I think they need to send Tracy home. The way she is losing weight is unhealthy. The doctor told her not to try to lose weight but she lost anyway even though no exercise and per her words "ate a ton". She is either making herself throw up or she is more sick than the doctor thought.

I just love Daniel's heart!! He was so sweet in how he immediately told Shay how proud he was of her when she finally lost her hold in the pool challenge. I was impressed with how long she was able to hold on. I don't think I could have held on for 5 minutes!

I missed the previews for next week, are they going to 2 teams with each trained by either Bob or Jillian?

Was that Max (brother of Mike from last year) in the Biggest Loser Resort commercial? It sure looked like him and he had lost a good bit of weight just as Ketchuplover reported before this season started. If it was him, that is a smart marketing move and I bet they will have him at the finale to promote the resort.

Angel - I think I know what you are talking about. Shay has been crying and using the 'poor me' card too much.
If she can't lose weight, then vote her off. No one should feel obligated to keep her there just because she had an unhappy childhood. This is a game and decisions should be based on gameplay not who can tell the biggest sob story.
Sorry for the bluntness but it is getting old...

I'm glad Ali made it a point to everyone that there is nobody who needs to be there more than anyone, that everybody needs to be there. I know Shay felt it was a jab to her by the look on her face after it was said. She cannot keep that excuse much longer. And I think people will get over that story pretty quick.

I'm not digging on her attitude either. Can she not say anything nice about anybody?

I want to see Tracey make it far enough to where she is released to the gym just to see how she will do. She has been talking about how much of a beast she would be in there and I would like to see if she actually walks the walk.

Shay's just scared. She has no one at home. No one. This may be the first time in her life she feels like she had a family, so she does have more to 'lose' than others if she has to leave.

Did Daniel water load this week? Is he playing that game?

Sueby stated:

You are so right. I can't believe he let her have her way yet again.

Really, Karuuna? Hmmm. I did see them look @ each other, but wasn't sure. Thanks.

Help me out here someone please? I too wondered why or how Daniel didn't lose any weight. I didn't/don't understand either why that would be stratagy? Would he purposly try not to lose weight knowing he had immunity so others would think he is not a threat later on in the game? I remember Jillian saying "I hoped it was a strategy". I don't get it do I?

Cricket, they didn't just look at each other. Bob said to Daniel "playing the game?" or something like that and Daniel denied it, and then the next shot was of Jillian nodding her head and looking at Bob, presumably in agreement that Daniel was 'playing the game.'

BBLovergirl, he did lose weight. But he loaded up by drinking a bunch of water (and not peeing) immediately before the weigh in, to make it look like he didn't lose weight.

Then next week when he weighs in, his weight loss will be actually that of two weeks in stead of just one, giving a high percentage, and safe from elimination.

Shays profile on the BL website mentions her husband and stepsons.

I wonder why Shay keeps saying then that she doesn't have anyone at home?

You never know, it could be that Shay thinks they aren't supportive of her losing weight.

Shay said she had to work three jobs. IF she has a husband and stepsons why the HECK does she have to be the one to work?

there is way more to her story but frankly i dont want to know.

What i DO want to know is Tracey's REAL medical condition. i've seen car accident crush victims with lower CPKs than tracey. IF she is one of the very rare people with a muscular disease, she will never be able to safely exercise. Walking yes, basic movements like cleaning house yes, but any gym work - NO! not unless she doesnt want Kidneys by the time she hits 50.

I often worry about the Longterm Affects that Biggest Loser contestants must face after the show ends.

for tracey going onto the show has been a miracle. IF she has what i think she May have, it is really hard to diagnose until it gets critical.

cpk= 17,000 !!!! yikes

to answer Rissa's question on the previous page.

There are some serious conditions which will raise its ugly head only after something like Running on Sand for a mile.

IF Tracey has one of these conditions, it is not One muscle...it is all of the muscles of her body.

We didnt see the run. She may have fallen a few times causing Bruising and serious trauma to multiple sites. OR this was the first time she's truly overexerted herself. Either way, we had a patient come in with a similar condition a few years ago. He had been doing something extremely physical (a marathon? or just running) anyways his levels were quite high and the body cannot break it down properly so the kidneys start being damaged.

this is the condition that Our patient had. I wonder what Tracey has.

I read somewhere that Tracy had heatstroke. That might explain why she was in the hospital for so long.

That makes sense.. Sun's link lists the risk factors of rhabdomyolysis and one risk factor IS heat stroke.
