I didn't watch.... Idol had me won over last night! (PS for those watching... the aussie and the david guy = so cute!)

I'll have to watch TBL when I get home to my chicken noodle soup. I missed last week's episode too...

Someone refresh me.. who went home last week? Thanks!

I think I agree with everything everybody said. Especially the repeating after every stinking commercial.

Roger is getting VERY handsome. His eyes are amazing.

I thought when Dan was going up on the step with that huge weight that it was an injury just waiting to happen. It would have been safer if he had some spotters to catch that weight if he didn't make it up onto the step. Just like last week when they showed Bernie jumping up onto the bench. It was unstable and he fell. I thank God every week I watch this show that I'm not their liability insurance agent!!

I think they keep cutting to Brittany just because she's so pretty. Kelly has very pretty eyes and beautiful skin, IMO.

Did anybody pay attention to Kelly's body language during the temptation? Her shoulders were all hunched over and she was looking down when she walked off. She looked like a woman with very low self esteem. I felt sorry for her.

I really loved Bernie. I'm going to miss him.

Quick review of the stats, culled from BL website:

Weight loss by percentage:

Dan - 29%
Roger - 26%
Jay - 25%
Kelly - 22%
Maggie - 21%
Britany - 19%

If the guys are smart, they'll keep Brit and take out Maggie and Kelly. I doubt any of the remaining boys go home, but who knows, I never expected Bernie to go home last night.

I was happy (and surprised!) to see that Kelly stays for another week. Although I haven't seen the show from the beginning and some of the episodes I did watch I caught mid-way, I have always rooted for Kelly. I do like her, and somehow I think she and Paul did not have it easy, being ex-husband and wife. Even though they seemed to get on ok, I though it would be emotionally tougher for them than for anybody else.

I LOOOOOOOVED seeing Dr. Jeff from Season 2 again! Squeeeee!! He's put a few back on, but has kept off at least 80%.

Was not surprised that Blue all chose Bernie. Kelly lives to see another week, which I am glad for. I think she's matured a LOT since her ex left. I doubt she makes it another week, but.....

Brittney was not so b*tchy this week!

Dan is still a cocky little twerp!

Roger is looking REALLY handsome.....<blush>

Well that was a great episode, I am so lucky to have a piece of 4 calorie mint flavored.....
OMG are they serious?
I think they showed a whole 20 seconds of workouts on this episode. I love watching the workout parts!

Roger definitely is handsome. Love those eyes. There's a final four. I'm thinking the three guys are in. I'm hoping it will be Kelly or Maggie that is number 4. I'm really hoping Roger can pull this out and be the biggest loser.

I don't like the guys, they seem too cocky (Dan especially) for my liking. I LOVE Brittany, I hope she makes it to the end!

Hey All -

I'm a lurker here, but just saw a new commercial for Tuesday's episode and had to post. They show all of the team members who have been voted off back on campus. I believe it said 2 of them were going to get the chance to get back in the game. I guess it's the same sort of deal they did with the 50 state folks that season.

Yeah, on my mythweb (like tivo) description of the next episode is:

All fourteen of the eliminated contestants return to surprise the six remaining contestants; at the weigh-in, the man and woman who have lost the most weight on their own get to return to the game.

Cheers,
Ginger

Lost the most on their own...I'm going to say Mark won't be back, or Bernie. OMG I hope we don't end up with Neil back!

Taking a break from writing my paper. I am so happy that Ali is back. With her back a woman should be in the final four. I hate that Mark is back. I really would love it if Roger became the biggest loser. All the women on the black team are a crying mess. Brittany is truly a mess because she knows she will be in the bottom two.
