Rhonda - I'm with you, I think I'd rather be with the guys. Although I probably need a trainer like Jillian. I'll have to remember this if/when I get to the point where I can afford one.

Not sure who originally said that Ali needs to lose weight, but I think she looks FANTASTIC! I'd take her body any day of the week. And she's really struggled with her weight and body image, I wouldn't change a thing. Maybe this is where body issues stem from. Everyone so overly critical. Where on earth would 50 lbs come from her?

Ali is at 160 right now.

I am so mad. I have the VCR programed to tape weekly. I completely forgot about the time change affecting it and I didn't notice until 8:25 that the VCR wasn't recording. I missed how all the girls did. Anyone wanna recap for me?

As for the girls crying, yes---that is annoying. Kelly needs to step her game up, Brit is the Jullian's favorite and she totally babys her. But seriously, has Mark not cried more than all the chicks it the last few episodes?

You guys just wait, all you Dan-hair haters!! He is going to be the new Matt (season 2 reference of when Suzie cuts Matt's hair for all you newcomers) after the haircut. The best thing about next week will be hearing the comments that come out of Tim Gunn's mouth. I wonder if he is going to put his hand to his chin, look at those girls sideways, and say "Really? Do you ladies ever STOP crying???" lol

In real life, do you think they are all back at home now and ranch time is over? I think they probably are. When does the final air?

And when does the new season start airing? They are casting couples again, but who knows if its for the next season 6, or if they are currently filming 6 as we speak and casting 7. Since the writer's strike they are all on warp speed with production.

She's 5'5" and I think 162(?). I'm not saying she should, only that it would be possible. I'm 5'-4" and have weighed as little as 106 as an adult (years and years ago). My personal opinion is that she looks great now, I'd just work on adding muscle to finish firming up and let the weight loss fall where it may. But money is a big motivator, so she'll probably keep focused on the pounds lost. Plus we all know that they dehyrdrate themselves and live in a sauna for days before the finale, so she could possibly lose as much as 50 pounds more by the finale. KWIM?

Nope. I don't think she should, but I think she could, and probably will lose at least 30 more. I was just saying it was physically possible.

There's potential there. That's what were basically saying. Dude, your hair sucks. If you cut it you'll be so much better looking. Maybe he let it grow to make the makeover more dramatic?

You can cut Dan's hair, but you can't change his superior attitude! He is SOOOOO cocky!

You mean none of you ladies will miss watching Dan oh so carefully pull his "locks" away from his face when he goes for weigh in???
Looking forward to next week - the makeovers should be great - I hope they put highlights in Mark's hair -- wouldn't that just "frost" him!!!!

I think age and level of maturity has a lot to do with Dan, Maggie, and Brittany. I will never forget Adrian from the season Eric won. Her immaturity was intolerable for me.

I'm rooting for Roger too win it all. He reminds me of Eric. Just a really nice guy. Kelly does get on my nerves but I wish she would stop crying and do what she needs to do. I would love it if she looks fantastic at the finale.

Mark--wouldn't you hate to work with him? The relationship with Mark and Jay seems a bit dysfunctional. SMH!
