Oh, Chelle! That is so wonderful. You must be over the moon.

I cannot get the chat to download. Super secret, super secure PC and network.

Here is what I cannot get over. The weight losses have been so low this season, comparatively. It certainly makes me feel better about mine. I have gotten to a point where two pounds a week is not realistic. To see them spend 4-6 hours daily in a gym and having everyone else watch everything that they eat 24/7 and THEN post numbers that a person on the street with a normal life could post is crazy.

It makes me wonder what I could do with three months of intense personal training and having my food monitored. I won't ever get that chance, but I wish I see what those results would be.

OMG!

I can't believe they voted their strongest player off!

Jerry did so well at home! 88 pounds at home is amazing!

What is up with next week's preview?

I was ticked they voted Jerry off! Kinda a kick in the *ss to the man who put the team together. He looked fantastic though at home! I think it made him look about 15 years younger! Hope Blue knew what the heck they were doing!

I agree! How could they have voted off JERRY!?!?!?!!??! It makes no sense to me....but he totally kicked it when he got home - and looks SOOOOO healthy!!!!! GO JERRY!!!!

I cried too with the phone calls. I can't imagine not getting to talk to your family!!!! (WOAH, something that disappoints me about the show!!!) That's just nuts. I would go crazy....and not in a good way either.

I missed the preview for next weeks show due to crying children.... anyone care to share what'll be happening?

The preview for next week was the TBL on Speed. I felt like I had ADHD just watching it.

That is one of the things that bugs me about Amy. Mine are 5 and 2, and it would kill me to leave them. And as much as I would be heartbroken, my kids would be devastated. When my daughter was born, she was in the NICU for a week, and I never left that floor. My son was almost three, and my being gone for a seven days was horrible for him. When I cried, it was because I wanted my family back together. I cannot imagine electing to leave two such small children when they need their mom so badly at that age.

I can't believe they voted Jerry off!! That was a stupid move. He did look great when they showed him at home and down 88 pounds. Hope the blue team knows what they just did to themselves.

GO BLACK TEAM!!!

I wonder what other factors were in play here for the blue team to have voted off Jerry? Age? Attitude? Interesting choice....but you know at the next elimination, Patty is the next one to go.....

Wow that made me sad when Jerry had to go, but sheesh he looks really good and a lot younger now.

I actually cried a little during the phone calls, I could never do that. I justcouldn't get out of bed and work out like that without my family by my side. My son is 3 and I wouldn't even dream of leaving him.

I thought it very strange that the "preliminary vote" was unanimously to vote Jerry off. That just seemed to come from left field, and Jerry's speech about loyalty and coming from another generation, where loyalty meant something.... I mean, he had to know politics and competition aspects of the show before joining. It just makes me wonder what happened behind the scenes. Is it possible that his knee injury was worse than it seemed?
