Remember how Christie's upper arms looked after losing all that weight? And, the botched surgery? And, let's not forget that she gained back about 25 pounds. Which probably went straight to her thighs.

Addiction can be with anything. I know someone who is an addict and when they were taken off all the drugs and alcohol(perscription no less) she started eating candy bars and drinking soda by the boat load (OK, not really a boat load but a lot!!!) I'm not sure about the sugar component in the alcohol or if it might be associated with how sugar can be an instant upper.I have another thought about Christie, to me this is sad. She has gone before millions on TV and she has exposed her emotions and her life,and for me, I think the best thing anyone can do for her, in this particular situation, is pray for her. I know not all will agree with me but for those who do, I think a prayer lifted up for Christie would be great! I don't always agree with what Christie says or acts but,on this matter, she could be in crisis and needs all the help she can get.

She very specificly said that she hates exercise and aviods it at all costs. Therefore the gastric bypass. She thought GBS would be a magic pill for obesity. It's not.

You are correct and right on. I have a friend who had the GBS too and she lost a lot of weight and then you guessed it she put it all right back on. I am talking over 100 pounds of flab. She had so much excess flab after the GBS that she hated her body and how she looked and she didnt exercise or eat right and put it back on. Sad too. Christie probably got lazy when she was so over weight and she just hasnt changed her way of life. I feel sorry for her because she is obessed with beauty and thinks that will solve all of her problems. NOT. Maybe she will figure it all out.

Remeber how SO season 1 made a big deal out of exercise? They would wake up ALL of the woman and make them go out and jog/walk, go to the park and various exercise classes. This season is all about smoking and steak! Not a good enviroment for Christie.

You mean peeps would go through the pain and recovery of major surgery, the hassle of a much smaller stomach, and REGAIN all of their weight!!? Man, that is so weird. I guess it's true that exercise and dieting probably is the best way to lose the extra weight, even if it is tedious, long and boring most of the time. At least doing this the long way, I'm supposedly learning to eat better for the future. I miss sweets, I miss juicy steaks and potatoes and breads, but I'll be darned if I'll let those things win over my weight loss regimen. Although I think some days I have to walk a whole bunch more just to make up for cheating occasionally! LOL.Is Christie lazy really, or is she unmotivated? There are so many different ways to exercise -- we don't have to workout in the traditional sense. I thought she had fun at the line dancing evening. That's movement and I know I can work up a sweat when I'm dancing. Maybe you're right, a walk or jog in the park or some other form of daily moving would be helpful for the h.g.'s. It's helpful for us, too! Even yoga or plain old stretching helps. Is it possible that some of what we think is fat might actually be extra skin on Christie's thighs? Just a thought.

I had a vertical banded gastroplasty 14 years ago, I lost 165lbs in a year, 100lbs was due to the surgery the other 65lbs I worked off, mostly by walking, I have kept the weight off and feel great, I don't by any means have a perfect body, and didn't expect that I would, I just wanted to be around for my kids....poor Christie, seems like she just sat around waiting for the fat to fall off and now she's not happy with her results.....get off the couch!!!!

Thanks Bugaloo!
No I don't know of any books written on that subject...good idea though, I did however get the Doctor who performed my surgery to form a support group for people who have had or are contemplating having it done, it's not for everyone, my sister has had it done 3 times now...and failed each time,trust me, it's not the surgery that fails....it's the person, unfortunatly Christie seems like the type who is going to put it all back on, my surgery was different from Christie's too,in Canada they stopped doing gastric bypass surgery a long time ago, I was told it's not safe, people die from malnutrition, but she seems to be able to pack away the food with no problem, it would take me all day to eat what she eats in one meal, and to Mimibunny's question, I did not have to pay for my surgery,(14 years ago) it was covered by my medical,they also offered a tummy tuck, arm flab,leg lifts and boob job if needed,which I did!,I passed on all except for the tummy tuck, which was needed( they removed a 4lb flap) but apparently now it's not, it's all concidered cosmetic surgery, too many people like Christie, looking for the easy out.....I hope she can get it together, I would love to talk to her in person about this.....

Christie may have thunder thighs, as the OP stated, but some of us have big butts, or small breast, or big tummies. Each woman has a flaw or two they'd like to change, even models. It's when we judge ourselves and others by a standard of perfection that we fail. I wish we women could support each other in wiping out the idea of perfect beauty.

Some insurance carriers will cover the main surgery and the first tummy tuck as medically necessary. I wondered though about the money, though, when she said she liked the results so much she decided to "keep going". I wondered where she got the $ for the arm surgery and whatever else.

59. "RE: where did she get the money?" |
I would think that the doctor who messed it up the first time would have to pay for the second one, or risk a malpractice suit. Actually, she may have won a malpractice suit.Christie didn't look overweight enough for the gastric bypass to be medically necessary--also, she is so young. I think for it to be medically necessary you have to have congestive heart failure, high blood pressure, deteriorating joints, and/or other medical conditions stemming from the weight. I always wonder how people afford these surgeries. Sommer at least seemed to have a well-paying job and probably decent credit. It is a terribly risky thing to do just for cosmetic reasons--and I could never understand it, anyway. I mean, you have to drastically control your eating after the surgery, so why not just do it before? (I know, easier said than done.)

77. "RE: where did she get the money?" |
I am 3 1/2 years post GBS. My insurance paid for the surgery. Requirements for surgery at this time are getting more stringent, however the basics are a BMI of 40 or over (thats apporoximately 100lbs overweight, also called morbidly obese) or a BMI of 35 with certain comorbidities such as diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, heart conditions, etc. The part that is getting more difficult to please the insurance companies is a comprehensive list of medically supervised weight loss programs. Usually for at least 1 year. I would like to point out that Christie certainly was eligible for GBS. I would also like to point out that those patients that suffer from malnutrition are in one of two groups most likely
1) non-compliant with vitamin and protein supplementation
2) had a surgeon that was a cut and run type of guy. Has no knowledge and/or interest in the requirements of the post gastric bypass patients nutritional needs. Very very few nutritionists have a clue. They are taught about "normies" However you would think any reasonably intelligent human being that was required to learn the anatomy and physiology of the digestive tract to acquire their license to practice, would not have a great deal of trouble figuring out that when you bypass the duodenum and jejunum of the digestive system, along with about 5 feet MORE of intestine, that very little nutrients are absorbed from the food we eat. Not so.........they tell you to take 2 tums for calcium and a multivitamin and eat protein. There is no way on God's green earth a gastric bypass patient could possibly eat enough protein with a stomach that holds one ounce. And they are not going to absorb the nutrients anyway. I will NOT go into the 40 various vitamins and minerals I take daily to remain healthy, along with the 3 protein shakes. Even so, I got the word too late about the tums for calcium and am now the proud recipient of osteoporosis. Also there is inevitably a 10-20 lb rebound weight gain. Not everyone will get to a "goal" weight. The heavier you are, the heavier you will remain. But 200lbs is much much healthier then 350 or 400. Also, I must disagree, the surgeries do fail! If you are a real heavy weight, you may have needed more intestine bypassed. The suture line between the pouch and remnant stomach can open, so you have no restriction. The stoma from the pouch to the intestine can stretch, also resulting in no restriction. So you can't always blame the patient Do patients out eat the surgery? of course. Genetics is only one risk factor for MO. There are emotional and defensive reasons for being MO. Many of us were victims of sexual abuse. Many of us have no ability to deal with stress or feelings. We stuff it with food to keep the anger down and under "control". I am now off my soap box. but I get so tired of people judging others for being "fat" and having no control. We are not stupid or lazy slovenly. We just deal with life a bit differently then others. And yes, it does not surprise me that Christie has abused alcohol and pills. It is trading one addiction (food) or another.

81. "RE: where did she get the money?" |
LAST EDITED ON 03-14-06 AT 02:08 AM (EST)Dear Seagull soars: Well said. I am close friends with GB patients and you are right on. I started the GPS process a year ago then chicken'd out. I've tried Weight Watchers (for the 100th) time and Curves since then and I've actually gained a few pounds. I am going to start the process again. In high school I was an athlete (even at 150 lbs). I've always looked like I weigh less than I acutally do. I am not lazy and am not an out of control eating machine. I believe genetics play a big part of my issue. I try to do the work.... it just never lasts. I need a head start with the GBS. I am willing to do the exercise and post surgery care. I want to be active again. The surgery will allow me to finish the race.

84. "RE: where did she get the money?" |
I agree that there is a strong genetic component to extreme obesity. I think it is underestimated by the medical community and that promulgates the "fat people are lazy" idea. I have had some pretty horrible eating habits (overeating, junk food, high fat, high sugar, etc.)and lack of exercise, but I have never gained more than about 15-20 lbs. (Not trying to rub it in!) When I see morbidly obese people it looks to me like they have the ability to gain an enormous amount of weight/fat in one area of the body, whereas most people gain it more evenly (maybe more in the hips, thighs, and lower abdomen for women). It seems like a genetic predisposition to me. Way to go, Seagull, and keep up the good work!

Sorry, but your assertions here are a bit off. While it is true that GBS patients have skin that appears looser during the first year of weight loss, the GBS patient's skin eventually catches up. Studies have shown across the board that, at two years out and over, there is virtually no discernible difference between the dermal and fat composition of a GBS patient vs. a patient who has lost weight non-surgically. All things being equal (extent of obesity, lenghth of time obese, etc.), both patients will have an equal amount of excess skin, because skin, once stretched beyond the point of recovery, will only retract so far.
It is a common fallacy that GBS patients have more loose skin. This ceases to be true after Year Two, post-surgery. Body shape, weight, body fat percentage, lean body mass -- as with a non-surgical patient, all these things are determined in the post-surgical GBS patient by diet, exercise, genetics and overall health. Christie's thighs are most likely the result of a) her confessed unwillingness to exercise, b) her poor diet, c) her recent battle with chemicals, and d) her DNA. The only thing she can't change is her DNA, so she shoudl get on one of those ellipticals, but quick. Thanks for letting me set the record straight. There is a HUGE amount of misinformation out there about GBS, and it's usually designed to punish the patient for resorting to surgery. ~AR~ (three and half years post-surgery -- and my thighs look FABULOUS w/o lipo, thanks!  )

I'm sure her drinking, drug usage and partying has added weight as well. Her body chemicals react differently to things with all that crap in her system and it takes a long long time for it to be corrected. You can't fix a lifetime of abuse to your body in a few years or think surgery alone will take care of it all.

I honestly have not seen anyone in that pool except when they had the "lifeboat" exercise and Allisham jumped into that raft. I don't understand it!! This is SoCal, for cryin' out loud! You'd think they would ALL take advantage of it! The water is a lot easier on the old bod than the land is! And I agree with whoever said, they're living in a fabulous neighborhood, why not take a walk once in a while.. Like every day!

It will always amaze me what people will go thru, how many expensive and time consuming things they will try in an attempt to improve both how they feel and how they look when in study after study it is proven over & over that if you
- become more active
- eat more fresh foods (fruits & veg), whole grains, eliminate as much processed foods as possible;
- drink lots & lots of water
every aspect of your life physically, mentally, emotionally will benefit.Seems that should be the 1st step for EVERYONE. How many of our problems would begin improving with that step at the beginning? In general, all body systems would run better ... improving health, energy, metabolism, mood, outlook etc.

28. "RE: Christie's Tunder Thighs!" |
I agree with you. IMO she is still overweight, though not what I would call obese. She said she weighed 151 pounds - that's overweight. I am only 138 right now (after dieting seriously for a couple of months and I was at 154 before that). I still consider myself overweight so I don't know what Christie's thinking. She doesn't exercise at all (I have to force myself to run 3 miles a week BUT I do it) and she's not eating healthy - or at least it doesn't appear that way. Even after being told she would gain back 50% of her weight, in all likelihood, she has made no serious changes. What a waste of money to have surgery like that and then do nothing to maintain it.I just read an article recently about a program in my area for gastric bypass patients. Basically, in order to do the surgery, they require you to take a 6-month course (twice weekly) that teaches nutrition, cooking after the surgery and exercise - all of which you must do even BEFORE you have the surgery. In other words, your eating habits are changed before they will even operate on you. One man did the class and then was waiting to get the surgery (had a health problem and needed it to clear up before they would operate). Long story short: He never had the surgery and, by doing the program, was able to lost over 100 pounds. That is what I think all of these people must do - they will never keep the weight off unless they make serious lifestyle CHANGES!!

After seeing Christie today and seeing how she tackles her assignments I think she is lazy and so instead of doing weight loss the normal way she chose the easy way out (in her mind) and had the surgery. She has no get up and go and doesn't want to do much of anything but sit around and complain about people. She glares at people and looks down her nose at them like they are all in the wrong and she is perfect. Her best efforts got her where she is which is nowhere.

Christie is one whiney, lazy woman. When I hear that whiney voice of hers, it just grates on my last nerve. And do you ever see her sitting up straight on the couches? She's always either reclined or draped and slunked back/down on them. She's also lazy about the assignments. Why in hell is she even there? She's disrespectful to her LC and anyone who doesn't agree with her. She tells her boyfriend, Justin to f*** off, then calls and harrasses him. When he tries to tell her she already dumped him, it's moot - she pretends like it's her idea to end the call and blows him off mid-sentence. She'd keep anyone drinking! As for her weighing 151 - my #####! She's more like 170-180. She probably hasn't been on the scale in as long as "I only need to lose 40 pounds" Jody.

31. "christy is lazy" |
I have nothing gainst the girl but I have to agree with you she is whiney and lazy. Everytime they show her shes lying around on the couch. She is the ulitimate "poor me" vicitim. Did she have a job before?? They live in a beautiful house with a pool and treadmills (did you all notice Rhonda passing them when she was with Kelly?) and they probably have a gym membership for the house, why doesnt she take advantage of what shes got and quit bitching about what she doesnt have?

My sister In law is going for GBS surgery Soon as the insurance ok it. I when with my Sister in law to talk to the shrink. He said " Obesity is a disease and should be regonized that way. Well seems as Christy has a lot of deman she is fighting. Iagree she needs to get out a exercise. Maybe Curvels would not be a bad idea. Sounds as if some of those who posting would make good LC lol My curious mind would like to know the costof the surgery. Anybody got a idea?

I think its gross that when she sits next to kim she looks fine until they show her knees and calfs and they are HUGE.Her leg is the size of Kim. She is not big from the waist up. I dont know how old you all are but Carol Burnett had a show and she used to wear a fat suit and her legs looked like christies!! Its just wierd! She needs to move, just walk, get some circulation in her legs!!

I think she had on a pair of Seven for All Mankind at least once. The biggest size they come in is a 32, which would be a size 12, but they run small, so basically a size 10.

Lane Bryant makes a line of jeans called "Sevens" which are a Seven for All Mankind knockoff with similar back pocket stitching. I've seen girls who have a bit of weight to lose still squeezing into authentic 7s, but they were smaller than Christie. Muffin bellys. LOL. Of course a size 10-12 can look big on tv. When I can't sleep and Home Shopping networks the sales women will say what size they wear those size 12 sales women look fairly big on the screen. The camera really does add bulk. In my opinion and having seen Christie's tendencies for all of a whole month or so, I think she's mentioning a weight from the place where she went for the pill addiction and prob gained weight since then. She's never been into exercise and Rhonda hit it squarely on the head for all of Christie's mess "you have to want it". If she wants to get over her -- anything -- she'll start doing something about it. She knows how to solve problems. She could think - you know, i'm sick of being fat, I want to take control, that's it, I'm going for a walk until I can jog - everday - twice a day if necessary, but I guess she's not there yet. I don't think of it as laziness, though. It has something to do with her anger and wanting people to look at her and acknowledge her. Maybe it's about blaming other people and not wanting to do the work because it's somebody else's fault that she got in the situation, so why should she have to do something to fix it.

I don't really think of Christie as overweight, especially when compared to Jodi and most of all, Jill. Her legs look fine after seeing some of Jill's "leg shots" when she is in the phone room.I will agree that none of the HG's seem particularly "active" this season.

The eye-opener for me would have been (well, was, actually, since I've had GBP) that the average regained weight is 50%. GASP! That got my butt up and outta the chair. Now, maybe its editing, but remember last year when all we used to see were women on the treadmill, on the elliptical, on the stairmaster? This year, I think there've been two, three shots tops. Christie, girl! Get moving! ~AR~

I couldn't believe the suit she had on for Jill's graduation.
It was way too small on her. Maybe she borrowed a suit from Kim. LOL
I think Christie possesses the same traits she must have had before the GBS. She is lazy to a fault. That is the reason she is taking her good sweet time on her assignment with Kim. Plain laziness.

62. "RE: Christie's Tunder Thighs!" |
IMHO Christie is a "dry alcoholic," in other words, she has all the dysfunctional characteristics of an alcoholic (or addict), but doesn't drink (or use)---YET! They need to get her into a 12-step program and pronto to deal with these issues.Addicts are very good at telling you what you want to hear, without it having any resemblance to their reality (or truth in general). They are manipulative. Rules don't apply to them. They are self-serving. They have entitlement issues. They are passive-aggressive and/or abusive. They basically have been reduced to the lowest common denominator by their addiction. (No, I'm not judging. It is their addiction that we see, not them. However, in order to stay clean, they have to stop these behaviors.) I was dumbfounded at Christie's behavior with Kim. She was saying, "Kim just thinks about herself" (which is true), but Christie is that way as well. SHE didn't want to know about HER mother, so she wasn't going to call Kim's mother. She was passive-aggressive to the hilt. If Kim hadn't forced Christie to talk to Kim's mother when she had, how on earth was Christie going to get it done before seven, as mandated by Rhonda? And that thing with her ex-boyfriend! Does she want to be broken up with him, or not? She still seems to want him to change. And she still talks about him in the present tense, like they are still involved. I don't think HE wants to continue being friends, and she certainly should not, since he would be a bad influence on her. She needs to LET GO. Her attitude towards exercise and dieting is typical of this mindset. "I want to be a model, but I'm not willing to work at it." Sorry I'm so long-winded, but it's been awhile since I've posted!

Am I trippin' or what? Isn't the show Starting Over, meaning they are regaining themselves from the inside out? While I do agree Christie is on the lazy side, her goal isn't to be rail thin is it? So are some of you saying that if she was skinny she wouldn't be having these same problems or they would be lessened? I think this "you are on TV; so be skinny and excerise" thing is way out of control. Look at the real purpose of the show.

You are 100% right. I couldn't agree more. And I agree that most women, such as ourselves, don't have out of left field goals. We also haven't been on drugs or are alcoholics. Maybe she realizes she has a wonderful chance and why not stretch her goals and try to model. (on another thread, her myspace.com site is listed and Christie said that she is doing some modeling now) I just wanted some of these ladies/gentlemen to realize that there maybe two women side by side; same height but a 75 lbs differance;yet the smaller of the two maybe the actual "sick one"

70. "RE: Christie's Tunder Thighs!" |
LAST EDITED ON 03-09-06 AT 01:46 PM (EST)I don't think I spoke at all about Christie's weight or physique, Real. I think her attitude toward dieting and exercise is a symptom of her other problems. SHE is the one that wants to be thin; I think she looks fine the way she is and is quite attractive. Since she has had a gastric bypass, she really needs to be responsible about her diet and probably exercise as well. Exercise is something we should all do for ourselves, even if it is just a 20 minute walk. Also, it is crucial for gastric bypass patients to eat very nutritious food because they can eat so little. Unfortunately, Christie could be on the road to gaining back most of the weight she lost, especially now that she is off the alcohol and drugs. I agree that thin people can be as screwed up as larger people. (I don't believe Christie is fat.) Look at Lisa1 and Kim, for instance. But sometimes excessive weight is due to an eating disorder (overeating, binge eating) just as excessive thinness can be. Edited to add: I believe what the ladies/gentlemen are saying in this thread is that exercise and a proper diet are two important things that we can do to take care of ourselves, that many women do not do. It is just as important as working on your "inner self" because the way you take care of yourself is indicative of how you feel about yourself. It is also an issue of self-discipline. As for their working on their inner selves; they sure do spend a lot of time on makeovers and putting on makeup,etc.

How much would she have to gain back to get to 50% of what she lost? Wasn't it something like 180 lbs.(total weight). I think she went down to 128, so, say she lost 100 lbs., 180 lbs. would be >50 lbs. gained. She should be worried!

She should most definitely be worried, especially since she has, by her own admission, turned her back on her nutritional and exercise regime. That's a ticket straight back to obesity. I am fighting the same battle as Christie, which is why I just spend $1K on an elliptical trainer. She's got one in the house, free for her use. Have ya ever seen her on it? Heck no.
She should be worried. And then she should get back to work, instead of griping because she stepped on the scale and weighed 152. Gastric bypass is a blessing and its really easy to take it for granted if you're not careful. ~AR~

Bugaloo,
Christie did have Gastric Bypass Surgery but you need to let her go through a process. I mean they do have Assignments that they need to do she just doesn't have free time to exercise and when she is at the house they are doing their homework that they Life Coaches give them. I feel sorry for her she has been through so much Trauma and I think she looks nice and maybe she wants to do it the non surgical way loose weight and workout the problem places.

LAST EDITED ON 03-17-06 AT 07:30 PM (EST)That's a very generous attitude, Collette (by the way, pretty name!), but I think some of us have noticed that Christie seems to have plenty of free time to "exercise" her jaws badmouthing the others as well as chewing and scarfing down food. I know I wonder why that pool just sits out there without anybody using it. And personally, the only "assignment" or "homework" I recall her being given lately by an LC was to write down what she eats, and I don't think she's found time to do that, either. Too busy being a b*tch to Kim and lounging around munching on chow. I know we all have our favorites, and that's cool, but I have to disagree with you on this one. Edited to add: Welcome! This is fun, isn't it?

105. "RE: Christie's Tunder Thighs!" |
I nuderstand about pools being a bit on the cool side in Winter even in S. Calif but geez she didn't even try to work out at all. She acted like breathing was a major chore and too exhausting for her. She could have walked, could have asked to go to Curves (since they were a sponsor I am sure they would have let her go), could have used the treadmill, utilized the tennis courts etc. The pool couldn't have been too bad since she and Jodi did jump in it and they had Jessica in the pool earlier in the season when she did the brick exercise etc. I am sure SO has a heated pool. Fact is Christie said she won't exercise didn't say she couldn't. That's why she is still fat everywhere but her face. She has the fat mentality and expects the pounds to just miraculously disappear with no effort or work like normal human beings have to do. She is one of the laziest people I have ever seen. Heck she can't even sit up straight for more than a millisecond

I think it is so funny someone else noticed the pool not getting used---I thought it was just me---one day last week Christie and Jodi jumped in (with clothes on, odd, I thought) when they were jealous of Kelley getting a step ahead of them---Step-envy, I guess

Ya, I agree. All she has to do is 30 min. a day on the treadmill, walking or whatever. She would feel better, and it would put some color on her face-I'm tired of watching her lazy a$$ on the couch, she needs to get rid of that hair too-It's her security and holds all her past, weighing her down.

Did you notice that she is dressing like a bum? Evertone else looked nice and put together at group today. Christie was wearing sloppy black sweats and messy hair. I don't think she can fit her other clothes anymore.

So she exercises once in over a month and has the NERVE to say that she's frustrated with her body? Ah...I think your body's frustrated with you Christie!!! Her mind is warped.

I agree Christie should exercise more, but no matter how much weight she looses or exercising she does she is always going to have big thighs and a big butt. Its just the way shes made. My ex sister inlaw was built the same way, if you,ll notice her stomach and upwards are rather small compaired to her bottom half.

well, i bet they could be smaller and more importantly toner if she exercised. i think it is interesting that she left her big bottom half out of her self portrait. hmm...denial?

...also when watching the flashbacks to Lisa's BOR, Christie looks thinner. I think she has gained weight since being in the house.

I was so happy to see the work that Christie did today on the show. I could really identify, because it's always so difficult to really know what I look like right now, after years of yo-yo dieting you tend to become confused with body image!Actually, I think I look thinnner than I am, and always think it's funny how shocked I am when I see how fat I've become. Well, Christie having a chalk outline of her body I thought was a great idea because she could hold it up and actually see how big or small she was (mirror reflections are SO deceiving, and so is the scale!). And then when she and Lisa went to the pole dancing class and just stretched and got in touch with their bodies and spoke with the instructor about how ALL scars are badges of honor (I think this means stretch marks and skin that just doesn't snap back after weight loss, too) it was really encouraging...to love and accept your body just as you are, today, before the next diet to come or the next glance in the mirror. I really do love some of the exercises they have the women in the house do. I could see on Christie's face how she felt 'good in her own skin' probably for the first time in years, if ever. I'm just assuming she was happy, but it sure looked like she was to me. It's the first step to accepting others...to accept oneself. Yes!

You know, I'm new to this forum and I think it's just great to be able to talk to others about this show.
That probably sounds corny, but I have watched it for three seasons now and I don't know of anyone else who watches it to talk to about it. I really do learn a lot from it, and think it's overall a really positive thing for daytime tv. Just wanted to say thanks for sharing ideas.

I have yet to see this woman write anything down on what she is eating...she is suppose to measure ( bwhahhh ha ha ha) each item out and then write it down and the mood she is in.also carb counting would not hurt..and watching salt intake ( retain water) they have about 1,000 worth of treadmill and equip outside..just sitting with all those stairs ..they could jog inside ( when its raining) up and down the stairs or do wall push ups.. or lift cans of food.if they do not have enough free weights to go around.. use a bunch of phone books as step up ..you do not need a lot to work out. .they have access to web they can even work out on those web sites for free and log in progress. .they should move the treadmill inside next to phone and remove chair..make them walk while they talk..=snicker= as big as that SO house is they should work out for at least 1/2 hour..jogging from room to room level to level i notice the frig is always stocked to the hilt.. when are they going to really kick some (_)(_) here and
get these ladies exercising..???? I would love to see the military drill instructor..come in screaming again yelling MOVE IT MOVE IT..get her doing SOMETHING...LAZY WOMAN..

i have never seen such a lazy group of women as in this season's house! the very same group of women who are constantly whining about being fat and not liking their bodies. christie is FATTER than she needs to be because she has excercised TWICE since being in the house and she EATS TOO MUCH. i don't think that the LCs and HGs should talk to her about body image anymore until she takes the most basic actions to control her weight. She is so LAZY that she actually takes to bed in the middle of the day. WTF?

121. "they dont get it" |
I think so many people just walk through life in a fog and that is Christie. She has everything available to her at that house and yet she doesnt take advantage of it. I bet if she wanted they would get her a membership to a health club, even curves to go with Jodie. I think part of it is that she doesnt see it. The sensuality excercise was nice, they could have brought the woman to the house though. I thought it looked fun. Shes not dumb shes just asleep. I think thats why she likes drugs and other addictive things, it blurs her and then she doesnt have to wake up and live..

you are so right! i can't think of a single thing not available to her that she needs to lose weight. unless of course she went to a spa/fat camp where food and exercise are completely controlled. but that really is rehab isn't it? she's supposed to be past that.

Well I guess if any of us think there's an easy solution to anything, we can see how it backfired - through Christie. I think it's really hard to be patient and get down into your life, and realize, in actuality what needs to be done - like exercise instead of surgery. The need for exercise didn't go away. I guess that's why Christie is in the house (I forget her specific goal). But once again, SO presents an issue as much simplier than it is. It should be called the START house, because I guess it's a start... but nobody really starts over here.

Now that we have seen Christie on national TV in her undies, it is clear that this girl is out of shapes and has not given exercise a chance. How dare she complain about her body when she does NOTHING to help it. Her goal should be to confront her laziness. Period.

Oh My Gawd, did you see those thighs when Christie was at that doctor's office??? Momma Mia!! I think she should be thinking about sort of evening out her top half with her bottom half. You're right, that lower half came from a different body! I'm not sure what!

After sitting on her a$$, scarfing down a plateful of food while Jodi was doing all her 5K work on the computer, she certainly didn't need those apple tarts.

Just watched tape of the episode where Antonia goes up the mountain and then Christie and her Curves partner, Toadie, come home and immediately stick to their strict diet regimen: Caramel Apple Tartlets. As a fan of Christie's extreme weight loss while in the SOH, I went to the Omaha Steaks web site to find out Christie's beauty secret.Caramel Apple Tartlet: 350 calories
170 calories from fat
19 grams of fat (10 saturated)
42 grams of carbohydrates (only 1 gram fiber)
3 grams protein INGREDIENTS: Apples, Enriched Bleached Pastry Flour (Wheat Flour, Thiamine Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Niacin, Iron, Folic Acid), Non-Hydrogenated Vegetable Shortening (Modified Palm and/or Palm Oil), White Cane Sugar, Enriched Bleached All Purpose Flour (Wheat Flour, Thiamine Mononitrate, Niacin, Riboflavin, Iron, Folic Acid, Amylase), Water, Corn Syrup, Whipping Cream, Lemon Juice from concentrate, Modified Corn Starch, Salted Butter, Liquid Whole Eggs, Glaze (Sugar, Agar, Refiners Molasses), Salt, White Vinegar, Yeast, Enzymes, Cinnamon, Modified Tapioca Starch, Molasses, Natural Flavors, Dextrose, Soy Lecithin, Vegetable Extract. Hmm...guess this is why Christie's thighs barely fit on my wide screen TV.

I hope she continues to learn to love herself and forgive her mother. The truth is she will never be able to change her mother and her mother may never change on her own. And she will never be able to change the past but she has complete control over today and the future.
