If I lose 50-60 lbs I'm still considered obese but that's okay at least I will be healthier. I'm with you too!

Who's with me??? That's 50-60 lbs safely depending on where you are in your program.

THANKS for the link Roni!
I'm totally with you. I can at least not be obese by then.

You've got to watch teh outtakes on Britney's site. The funniest parts of the show clip on the left side (week 14), and then the Bernie clip talking about Jackie's secret weapon is good too.

man, bernie needs his own sitcom.

OMG....I'm STILL crying and it's the DAY AFTER!!! I am blown away by Ali...she SAID she was going to be the biggest loser, she believed it....then she made it happen. Amazing. How great is it to be so successful and in turn be such an inspiration to millions of people? Watching her transform from this "old before her time", sad, depressed and obese young woman, into a happy, youthful and confident athlete....was amazing. When she told the other teams, "I AM THE BIGGEST LOSER" when they voted her off, she believed it. She put those words out into the universe to make herself accountable, then she made it happen. That's why I am inspired by her. I honestly believe that if you write down your goals and say them out loud, you become accountable for them.

Ali has given me just the inspiration I needed to step it up and make my goals a reality. I don't care if I do end up with a turkey neck, floppy arms, lines on my face or extra skin. I just want to create the healthiest me that I can be.

GO ALI!!!

I feel exactly the same way Missing. OMG! What an inspiration she is. It's so cool that she said it, she believed it and she made it happen! This just reinforces to me that I CAN DO THIS! I WILL be 125 lbs and healthy again! I'm still sooooo excited!

I'm gonna miss this show. Thank goodness we have The Biggest Loser challenges to keep us going.
