Just caught on to this....watched it on catch up today. I am rooting for the pinks - did you see picture of maria in that bikini when she was younger???!

DeliciousBoo · 05-24-2009, 12:10 PM

I am rooting for the pinks too, because they are the lightest there they are under dogs...but I think they are quite resilient and fun to have around.

This programme is my daily dose of mega motivation, after I've watched it I'm always like *yes I can do this* so I'm so glad that Australia's Biggest Loser is also on lol!

As for favourites, I love Kevin! He seems like such a lovely guy and always puts in 100%, I'm so dissappointed that he's on Angie's black team now

I really didn't like Jamie on last weeks temptation task, Kevin so deserved to get the 10 minutes phonecall! Oh and just a tiny rant - WHY does Jamie ALWAYS give into tempation EVERY week??? It's not fair that he still loses over half a stone each weigh in, and there's poor Miriam n' Sadie working their butts off n' only losing like 1lb!?

Maria looked stunning in that bikini photo - WOW!

I was sorry to see Miriam leave as I liked her and it would have been nice for Eunice to have had the chance to come back in, but hey ho - that's the way these things go.

I think Mark's competitive streak is going to increasingly isolate him from the others which is a shame.

Can't believe Jamie has an injury AGAIN!!!

Has anyone else noticed that apart from Kevin's face, no one else seems to look any slimmer?

MoonGirl · 05-30-2009, 08:18 AM

I'm starting to think that Mark might be a bit of a git. Did you see him smirking when Carol only lost 1 lb? Not sure I fancy him any more.

I too was thinking that they haven't lost that much weight. Especially when you look at the before and afters of previous shows on You Tube. I suppose if we compared pictures of them when they came in to now we'd see a difference.

I do think they're all doing well though. I know weight loss may not be huge but they've probably gained muscle too.

MissVitality · 06-08-2009, 06:48 PM

Ooh, they were all just waiting on their chance to get shot of Mark, eh?

I'm starting to notice a difference in some of their weights now, especially around the face.

Not warming to Lisa at all - yet! Think Carol is fab. Katey and Jamie both annoy me - they come across as sniffling spoiled kids.

Loved that the winner of the 1st series came back to chat to them and how good to see he has maintained his weight loss and turned his life around to now be a personal trainer!

i am still hooked on this! I am rooting for Sadie now

For anyone who wants to find this online it's here.

This UK version is hecka low budget...but I kinda like it this way. I do think they need to show more what these people are eating tho.

I'm rooting for Sadie, too!

Abby1986 · 06-17-2009, 10:45 AM

I am still rooting for Kev! He's my favourite, although I have really been warming to both Maria and Sadie over the last few weeks

Still love Carol I think she's ace and did you see her when they did the makeover?? WHAT a difference!! Unfortunately, as much as I love Richard I think the Biggest Loser is on Angie's team. If any of the black team win it I'll be happy, agreeing with MissVitality here, Katie and Jamie annoy me too!!

MissVitality · 06-20-2009, 09:32 AM

OMG!!!!! Did you see the final? I just saw it on catch-up and I am completely blown away by the transformations!!! So inspiring! Had a wee cry.......

Starbuck · 06-20-2009, 09:53 AM

They all looked absolutely amazing !!!!!!!!!!!!

Couldn't believe how much weight Kevin had lost, he looked a totally different person. Glad he lost more than Mark as well, Mark deserved that for being so smug all the time.

MissVitality · 06-20-2009, 10:54 AM

I was stunned when I saw Kevin!!! Could not believe it was the same man.

Carol had also changed dramatically - it has taken years off her appearance. And what about Sadie's legs?? Miriam also looked fab.

chick_in_the_hat · 06-20-2009, 01:30 PM

Kevin blew me away.

Sadie? One HAWT chickie!! Loving the confidence they were all exuding.

I'm just starting on BL UK 2 which is being uploaded. Woo Hoo!

UKbarristerchick · 06-21-2009, 06:24 PM

It was AWESOME. The show was my daily motivation also! I sat on my sofa and cried - the transformations were pretty incredible - the top three were certainly Kevin (looked like a COMPLETELY different person), Sadie (awesome legs, exuded a lovely confidence) and Carol (the weight loss took years off her). I was a little surprised that Mark did not lose more than he did, although I think he was a fair bit heavier than Kevin to start. I can't wait to the next one!
