I think every person's body chemistry is different and that we would all probably have to have a complete metabolic study done and then they still wouldn't have an answer!

Heavy sigh...I have no such excuse. I'm a couch potato and eat poorly. Nobody to blame for my weight but myself.

Did anyone watch this last night? Sure doesn't look like it. Two went home last night and from the looks of the previews they are bringing back a couple more of the ones that were left behind during the first episode. Things have really changed on this show. I believe in shaking things up, but this program is doing a hekova lot of it.

I don't know that I agree that the girls are getting the shaft. The girls CAN keep up - but Jillian and Bob both have pointed out they don't get it yet!

It's based on %, so the guys don't have an advantage as far as that goes - in fact in most cases they have to lose double the amount of weight to beat the girls.

I personally think the girls seem like a bunch of whiners this season - the only one I really like is Ada, and even this week I was rolling my eyes at her.

I don't even know any of the others names. I don't care for the Black Shirt Boys and Green Shirt Boys (they have the alliance). They don't talk very nice when it's just them and it annoys me. They seem to be the game players this year.

Of the boys I like Yellow Shirt (w/ the son London) best, then Blue Shirt and Orange Shirt.

This is one of my must-watch shows, and I'm kinda sad that it's really not clicking with me this season for some reason! Although I will say that I like the changes with the weigh in's and comps - though that sounds like it's going to change again next week too!

Does it seem like they are losing less weight this season? Do you think that the program has been changed to be more "realistic" in terms of real life expectancy?

So far Aaron, Adam, Rick and Mark are my favorite men (mainly because of the alliance group which annoys me too), and I liked Burgandy and was sorry to see her go (I don't care what they said...I think they got rid of her because they knew she would eventually hit her stride and be a fierce competitor). I want Lisa to do well because she is a mother of a teen girl like me but she needs to quit whining! Elizabeth has gotten on my nerves since the beginning and I was sorry that she was brought on the show after the fact. There's just something about Ada I don't care for...hopefully she will improve.

I think Adam is my favorite so far, and Rick is running a close second. He shows that you can be older and still be successful.

They should start with 10 men & 10 women and eliminate 1 of each each week.

I am so disgusted with tonight's show! Why do they continue to do this? Surely, someone could have told Anna what 3 guys were running the game, so she wouldn't put them all on the same team.

Even after that the girls had a chance to break up the threesome, but noooo; they get rid of someone else. What are they thinking? Do they not realize they are not long for the show?

I so wish the rules would have been switched at the last minute tonight and the person who lost the least weight was sent home. That would have been so satisfactory and just.

Me too. I was hoping the girls would band together and dump Brendon. Especially since they would be getting another strong guy.

Looks like the 3 some will get some payback next week but coming attractions can be so misleading.

Ada is working with Frado and Brendon so she wasn't going to dump anyone. Elizabeth is clueless and Anna is new to the game (but I think now she's seen the light so hopefully she will play a more strategic game).

Don't like Frado and Brendon at all, but at least Brendon was honest about why he was kicking off Rick. And contracts to Rick for his continued weightloss...and isn't he lucky to have a family that supports him never being at home?

finally caught up on the last two weeks. PUKE! I wish that the new lady had some time to talk to everyone before picking teams.

i truly hate this concept of teams Blue vs Black. I really liked the Lower half competeing then those last two are up for eviction. THIS old way leaves it way too open for gameplay and fiddling around with waterlogging / dehydrating for the Weighin.

ya ya ya As IF that huge guy really only lost -2 lbs. Dont beleive it for a second.

Final comment -It's based on %, so the guys don't have an advantage as far as that goes - in fact in most cases they have to lose double the amount of weight to beat the girls.

the guys have a HUGE advantage. They do NOT have the hormones that flare up for around 1-2 weeks a month. Water retention due to period has sent more than One woman home thru the seasons.

That one girl on the black team (young asthmatic) had a low weight loss, was bloated in the face and had the typical big juicy pimple which i associate with Period.

as they lost fat, men lose that extra "estrogen??? from the fat content of their bodies replacing it with muscle building testosterone. this doesnt happen as fast in the women.

i really dislike the Male vs Female posturing that always seems to occur.

but i still watch

She's had that period the whole show it seems...LOL!

why do I have to re-enter my user name and password every day? And why do I forget to do it every time?

<fixed that for you Roxip. Feel free to email the Mods if it still doesn't work or if you have other questions. - jr>

i thought that everyone had to enter user name and password with EACH post like i do. I assumed it was a change to this forum/ site.

so this is weird. hopefully someone will fix the block on MY username / password too. it is MISERABLE having to type out Sunshyne4u multiple times in a row. especially since i having difficulty typing and usually make a typo 8 out of 10 times i try to do it.

Sunshyne4u... go to your user settings and uncheck the box that says to remember your username/password and hit save. Then go back and recheck the box and hit save again. That solved the problem for me and hopefully will be that easy for you as well.

I agree, [Sunshyne]. Nothing fair about pitting the women against the men. To make it more fair, they should have a woman winner and a male winner.

I also wish someone had talked to Anna. I expected Adam might, as he has already caught on the the men's alliance. I also keep thinking Anna would have seen the show, but forget it's being taped, so she hadn't seen anything.

Brendon threw that weigh in...I don't care what he says. He acts as if he's such a d-bag.

Did they do tonight's twist to keep peeps like Brendon from throwing the weigh-in? Seems like they are very tired of the weigh-in tactics and might be getting negative mail regarding how some are 'playing the game.'

Wow, is Fredo a huge gameplayer. Everything is analyzed by him. I do have to say he's looking good with all the weight he's lost, but I sure wish anyone there would play the game against him.

Adam looked great. He and his brother are very handsome men. It's so sad their Mom isn't around to see how well he did and is doing. He may have been able to help her now.

To me the gameplaying is ruining this season. I wish it was every man or woman for themselves...last two people under the line are up for elimination and one of those two people leave. I hate to see people like Frado and Brandon manipulate their way further in the game. Last year it was Melissa who did that and fortunately enough she didn't last long.

I feel that Frado and Brandon are avoiding dealing with their weight issues and the reasons that they are so obese...this "working the system" to do the least amount of effort to get the most result is probably one of the main factors in their obesity. They really need to quit playing a game and get serious about dealing with the reasons they are obese.

Just my opinion, and probably not well stated, but I really am disliking them.

I agree, Roxip. I didn't like last night's show at all. It was so obvious who the teams were going to target and having the black team eliminate someone was so unfair. It was a guarantee that someone who was working hard would be eliminated.

Everytime I come to the site I have to enter name and password. Weird.

Am I the only one that just can't stand Frado? UGH!!

Sad to see Adam go but he looked GREAT

I also thought that Anna gleefully laughing in her interview was off-putting (and I was on the Anna bandwagon before). Three pounds...seriously?
