I don't understand the Orange team's motivation either. I suppose they must have thought that the gray team was going no matter what, so they might as well try to get in good with the yellow team. I'd have thought though that they could have used their vote to keep gray as an argument down the road about how they keep their word. Like "look, we voted for the yellow team, even when we knew it wasn't popular and that it was futile because the gray team was going, but we gave our word to the gray team just like we are giving our word to you."

NO ONE would have been upset, esp if as they said it wasn't going to make a difference in the outcome of the vote.
I think that it was more Heba's decission and I refuse to cheer for them in anyway. I know it is a game, but you have to have some morals and loyalty.
Now that my rant is over, did anyone see where to go to get the recipes that Rocco had them make? I want to try a couple of them.

I agree!! I was so disappointed with the orange teams decision. I like both the yellow and gray team so I'm sad to see them go. But did you see TJ on when they followed up on him 4 moths later??!! I think he's a hottie  !

I agree about the orange team.
I am beginning to really dislike the whole voting people off thing. Especially when Heba (I think it was her) said that Colleen needed to go because she is the biggest threat to win the biggest loser. I thought to myself, Heba girl, get to working your *** off like Colleen is and she won't be the biggest threat. For some reason, her comment just seemed whiney to me. I think they should all stay and have to work hard the whole time for the big prize.
I thought Jillian was much better last night. How do you think they had such huge losses that first week? That was a bit much IMHO.
The two Tom's looked great and so happy! That's what its about more than the big prize.

Some of those recipes look deeeelicious! I'm shocked that they're using NuSalt, though, considering that the NuSalt website says you should "consult with your physician before using Nu-Salt." Umm... sounds sketchy to me!

Me too! The grey and the yellow were my two favorite teams and for both of them to be below was just awful. When Coleen kept raising her hand and bidding I was yelling at the tv, "STOP, QUIT, NO". I really can't believe she did that and I looked at my DH and said, "Jill's gonna kill her".

It is probably compounded by editing, but I seriously dislike the Brown team. If they are truly acting the way that they are being portrayed, I predict that the other teams will vote them out as soon as they are below the line.

OMG YES. I had such a bad taste in my mouth when the wife admitted that the hubby was faking his injury so they wouldn't be perceived as a major threat. And then the hubby was really a  when talking about voting off the gray team. But as previously stated, I lost all respect for the orange team also. Both have to go---SOON. I am loving the purple and pink team now. They both have lots of heart and respect the other players.
But, I loved it when LT during his exit interview, said something like, "Wouldn't you be pissed if you went on a makeover show and turned out uglier than you started". LOL Give that boy props for having a great sense of humor.

I've never had luck finding the episodes online, only the 2 min recaps and the extra scenes at nbc.com

I have to throw my two cents in, I was a bit disappointed in Colleens decision to risk their stay for the prize of $10,000.
Her father DESPARATELY NEEDS TO BE THERE and to risk it for money is just rediculous. I understand that she really believed in themselves that they could lose the 14 pounds, but that was just being foolish and it almost cost them their time there. I felt like telling her that she just sold her fathers life for $10,000.00
just my two cents... I'm still rooting for the yellow team!! ALL THE WAY!!

I didn't see that, but did notice when Jillian was giving it to her that dad was standing in the background and not moving! Just like the way SHE stopped moving last week when Jillian turned her back on her and went to help the dad - then did the double take spin around and Colleen started her jumping jax again. WHen I noticed it this week tho, I was mostly watching his feet to see that they weren't moving, so I might have missed the mask. If so, YES, I def feel that is CRAZY.

Rocco
Here's a link to the recipes.
Oh and I'm not surprised gray got voted off...but kinda bummed. That LT had the fire in his eye.
DUH...there are two more pages of replies I haven't read yet.
