"May 12 Episode" |
Ok... I couldn't wait for JBUG to start the post! Hope I doing this right! This was a good espisode, but a lot of flashbacks and talking that could have been cut out. I am glad that they had the red line tonight. At this point of the journey it doesn't need to be about the alliances or game play, but what the individual is doing to make a permanet change in their life. So there was no yellow line, no voting, only one person falling under the red line and being sent home immediately. I thought that would have caused more drama than it did..but everyone seemed very focused on doing what needed to be done. They had two vistors from past seasons come talk to the players. Helen from two seasons ago and Eric from season 3. Helen still looks great. She looks so much younger. I can't believe Eric gained all his weight back! BUT he has started the program again and has lost 70 lbs. He really stressed to the ones he talked to about not giving yourself a "pass" when they got home, to keep the mindset going. He is supposed to be back at the finale to show how much weight he has lost. He and Michael are really close in weight right now, so it will be interesting to see how they compare on the last night. The challenge was a flashback from Tara's season. They had to carry bags that had their lost weight over the sand dunes. Darius won it!! I was so proud of him! He has really grown up the last couple of weeks. He beat Tara's time by 10 minutes! He won $10,000, but could buy a 1 lb. advantage. He took the 1 lb. Poor Michael!!! I felt so bad for him tonight. He really has to get a new mindset about his weight and how far he come instead of thinking about how "fat" he really is. After throwing a hissy fit in the gym, Bob talked to him and seemed to get through. I think the challenge though was what really hit home for him. They had flashback films of the contestants which we could have skipped...I mean if I see Ashley fly off the treadmill one more time!! The cool thing they added this time was a message from the "fat" self to the new self. I thought that was motivating. On the scales Michael lost 12 lbs. which set a new BL record. He is the first person to lose 200 lbs at the ranch! Daruis lost 10 lbs. and with the 1 lb. advantage gave him 1st place for the night. (Prize was a cooking lesson with THE CHEF!) Koli lost 13. I was suprised at his big number after last weeks loss..he isn't my favorite player. But he is doing very well. That left Ashley and Sunshine. Ashley lost 7 and thought she was going home, but then Sunshine only lost 2. So there is no more Sunshine on the ranch. Ok... long winded, but it was a good episode. My favorite to win is Darius! If not him then Michael or Ashley. OHH....also in the preview for next week....everyone goes home, then comes back for the final weigh in to determine the final two and the two that fall below the yellow line and SOMEONE GAINS 2 LBS!!! This should be interesting! ~Running in my dreams, Thanks Agman! ~

Thanks for the update. I haven't watched the show yet. I wish we had an East Cost Update thread for the Biggest Loser.

Well, you certainly had more to say than I did! LOL I hate it when work gets in my way....I couldn't decided if I was rooting for SS or Koli to not make it to the F4. Koli is beginning to grate on me - too cocky - even if he does admit that he is. So, even if they had used the "2 under the yellow line - vote one gone" way, Sunshine would still have been the one to go - that is, if Michael & Daris stuck to their alliance - which I think they would have. I can see Michael's issue - & hope that Bob got thru to him - I think watching the video helped him a lot - as well as meeting with Dr. H. Seeing Eric makes everyone realize that the ranch is not a magic potion; they will have to continue what they are doing. Helen looked wayyyyyyy different! Much better than the make-over did for her in her season. In a way, I'd like to see Ashley win. She too still has a lot of weight to lose & needs a lot of firming up. Agman 2009Is this your first? thread start, that is? so, no longer a RTVW thread start virgin LOL

Yeah, he's starting to annoy me, too. Especially when they showed Koli and Sunshine talking about how Sam was sent home, and they were so indignant about it. They kept going on about how they should have kept Sam in so they'd be safe. I just kept thinking, "Ok, so it's fine when your two teams team up together, but when other teams do it against you it's suddenly a terrible idea? Got it."

Two-hour shows (The Apprentice, The Bachelor, Biggest Loser) kill me. I have so much to get to on my Tivo right now and no time to get to it. Of all of them left, I am glad Sunshine left. I really liked her in the beginning, but she started to wear on me. I thought she looked great at home. I thought she was much prettier there than at her makeover. Everything she did for that appearance really worked for her. There had been an NBC teaser somewhere along the way about the first contestant to lost 200 pounds on the ranch, so I knew Michael was safe up until this point. Of the four left, I am fine with any of them winning. Even Koli. I would prefer Aris or Michael, but I'm fine with any of these four. Even though I haven't always agreed with Michael's actions this season, I am so happy for him and so proud of how far he has come this year. He has been so different than Shay from last year. He really worked hard for those 200 pounds. I hope he continues to and is not the one who gains 2 at the next weighin. Samboobree, brought to life by Arkie

As this show winds down, I felt compelled to just add a comment. This show was quite nerve wracking knowing that there was a red line. The yellow team and the grey team seemed so locked, that I never thought Daris, Michael, or Ashley had a prayer. So, I was so happy last week when Michael got to stay. I was happy they showed all of Michael's emotions. I think falling below the yellow line was a real wake up call for him. While Bob spoke to him, I was hoping that Jillian would get he 2 cents in as well. She seems to connect with folks when they have their emotional break downs, and somehow I just didn't think Bob's talk was as good. I would LOVE to see Michael win this whole thing. And, let's face it, as one of the ones with the most weight left to go, he certainly has an EXCELLENT chance. I was thrilled that Daris won the challenge. He has really transformed himself, and he is a new person. He has been shown the way, and I have no doubt that he will keep it up off the ranch. I don't think he could win, because, like Sam, he's gotten pretty small. I think this was his big pinnacle show. Daris rocked! As for Koli, for some reason I really loved he and Sam. I still do. I look at his cockiness as his drive and commitment, and he will let no one or no thing get in his way at this point. I admire that determination, and he could indeed win this game! Koli rockes. I also got such a kick out of what he did to save Sam in that one episode, when he didn't even need to. He overate, but then he worked out to beat the band, to make sure he was still in the game. As for Sunshine. I don't know how all of you feel, but I was so happy she went home. O'Neill and Sunshine were so committed to each other, it was heart warming. But, I felt that it was really all about Sunshine, and not enough about O'Neill. I felt like everything was handed to her on a silver platter. She had two people competing for her, not just herself. And, I thought that was unfair. I didn't think she deserved to win that way. I had nothing against her personally, and she's becoming such a beautiful girl. But, there are many worthy players in this game that aren't given everything by another sacrificing so much. Just how I felt. I was glad that she was the boot. Ashley is such an underdog, I think. I would be THRILLED if she won it, as well. She is so cute, and she does have a ways to go. But, because of this, she could be a winner. She is wearing the lucky pink color as well! GO ASHLEY! I think that Daris, Michael and Ashley have played a very good game! If I had to bet who will gain 2 pounds next week, it would be Daris. And just because he's so much smaller, he probably pushes the work outs so much and gains 2 pounds in muscle....and we all know that muscle weighs more than fat! Just a guess. I just love this show! So inspirational, and you really feel like you are along in their journey with them. I get so much happiness from watching these people along the way, transforming their lives and being rewarded with health and a much better self esteem and image.
