I have to admit that if I were on that show...I'm pretty sure I'd be crying EVERY minute! I wear my emotions on my sleeve more than anyone else I know!

Maybe that's why we like each other so much Rhonda!

That how everyone looks when they eat and a camera is 1 inch from their face. Rather someone is eating lettuce and a carrot or as thin as a rail. It's funny how that always do that on the news to emphasize someone is a glutton every night on the news, but only after the headless butt shot.

I love the Biggest loser. I don't really know why. Half the time I believe they are torturing those people, then half the time I'm cracking up at the silly half baked stunts they have them do. Then when it's all over I'm excited for the winner. Drama.

Ah, yes....the wonderful headless butt shot, followed directly by a fat person shoving food into their mouth.

Those have always bothered me, and made me feel terrible!

Funny story, my partner's aunt was on the news. She was headless of course, butt swinging in the wind during an "Obesity in America is...." but family members outed her by her shape, her favorite outfit and monster bag she carried all the time.

She fessed up that she was outside the building in the background. They still tease her about it, good thing she's a good sport. She informed us she wouldn't last a 2 days on the biggest loser, but she loves to watch it.

That's funny you say that because I was watching some show the other day that had that headless butt shot and I thought boy how embarrassed would I be if one day I was watching tv and saw my butt on there. And I always wondered how people felt when they saw their butt shot. Guess it would be good if it served as a wake up call for that person to get healthy.

I think it's rude that they do that without people knowing what's up. I don't believe you can shame people into losing weight. Matter of fact she's just as big as always. What's cool about her is that she doesn't care what people think of her and she's pretty happy with herself. I like that in people, no matter what size they are.

She is an pretty old lady too. She's also very healthy, no diabetes, no cancer, no heart problems, no hypertension. She's also very active. That's the thing with that sort of thing, if you are clicking off health problems associated with weight loss you should make sure the fat people in the background actually have said health problems.

I agree with the close ups being NASTY!!! Maybe I should put a video camera on the fridge for next time I start shoveling it in. Bet that might put an end to things.
Any how I have a couple questions for anyone that may be interested in answering...?
1. How many calories are they consuming at this stage? (Question be cause Paul said he had 1000 cals left because he didn't drink his shake... BIG SHAKE I guess)
2. I missed out on when the host said what the top losers won. She had mention a prize but I missed it. Anyone know?
Have a great rest of the week... Keep on losing!

They never got to the prize as far as I saw either, jaxnthbx.

As for the crying...they are working out umpteen hours a day and are on restricted calories. I'd be pretty worked up as well. I've done Jillian's workouts - (from her book i have to imagine her yelling at me). They make me wanna cry sometimes. 'Til after

Plus what fun would it be with no drama?
