I am glad Bob backed Anna last night. He wouldn't put up with Bonnie's attitude one minute. I'm almost 65 years old, obese, and--hopefully--not a whiner. I'm wondering if Bonnie was a good choice for the Ranch. I'm thinking not and am hoping to be proved wrong. I'd love to see Bonnie being successful and taking responsibility for herself and not blaming others or whining.

I'm really proud of Sonny. We live not too distant to Frisco, TX and endured the 110+* weather this summer. I was extremely impressed with Bob and her for working out outdoors. I confess I hibernated under air-conditioning not venturing outside after 10 am. Even 9 pm was around 100* for weeks.

Hmmmmm.....maybe I need an attitude adjustment myself and need to stop whining about the weather, etc.... and get outside and exercise.

Yeah, the only person Vinny is beating percentage wise is Bonnie, and that's not really something to brag about. She's getting on my nerves too now.

There was definitely a lot of drama last night. The whole thing with Jennifer seemed to come out of no where. They only show us what they want to and it's kind of weird to just pop out with that stuff in week 5.

Sunny did fabulous, was really happy for her. I think at this point my favorites are Sunny and Becky. I did like Courtney and was sorry to see her go.

Jessica always looks like she's in a horrible mood and it really turned me off how she said Courtney was her best friend there and then in the next sentence she voted her off. Not the smartest move on her part either because the next time they lose a weighin if she doesn't have the highest percent she's definitely the next to go.

Still can't stand John. =)

Last night was an odd one for drama. Jennifer feeling like an outsider and Antone's reaction was out of the blue, and the tension between Bonnie and Anna was weird. Last week she loved Anna, and this week they don't get along? I didn't see Bob backing Anna. When the "confrontation" started before the weigh in, I tuned out for a little while. What did he say?

I can't believe the Red Team isn't doing as well as I thought. I was sure they would win a weigh in by now. Dolvette is doing as much as he can. I mean, my goodness! He is scary in that gym!

I'm late in joining this thread, but also wanted to chime in here that Bonnie is driving me nuts, too. When she fell in that challenge, you would have thought she had broken her back with the way she was moaning and carrying on. The whole episode I wanted to smack her upside the head. Oh, how I'd wish they'd bring back Jillian just for a day to train Bonnie. I'd bet within the first ten minutes she'd be begging to have Anna back and never complain again.

Aside from that and the Jennifer drama, doesn't next weeks' Halloween episode look great? I don't think they've ever done an episode like that, have they? I laughed when they showed it, because minutes before I was just telling my sister that I wish they'd do a Halloween themed episode but didn't think they would since this was filmed months ago. Surprise! Oh, and how about the budding romance? Should be a great show.

Bob said something about agreeing with Anna and that trainers didn't have much time to work with contestants so they had to focus on training and not on making friendships.

I'm also anxious for next week's "spooky" show.

Bonnie needs to go and should have NEVER been let on the Ranch in the first place. I get why they picked her...but there was NO WAY. I'm over her and not rooting for her anymore, she needs to go home. I'm all about Becky right now i think...she's becoming an ANIMAL!!

Ohhhhh, that sounds awesome. I watch the episodes online the morning after they air so I don't see the previews for the next week. I'll be looking forward to next weeks episode. And someone has to fill me in... budding romance? =)

Oh, gosh...I am so bad with names, but I believe it's with the guy on the under 30s team with the long, dark hair and beard and the blond girl on the same team. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

I think you're right. Ramon and the blond. Is her name Jessica?

Becky's looking awesome. I am very happy for her.

Yeah Jessica. I figured that's who you had to be talking about since I'm pretty sure everyone else is married but Vinny. Interesting.... =)

Bonnie is getting on my last nerve too. Man, she's a real whiner. I don't see her lasting much longer.

I wonder if any of the contestants read these threads. I'd love to hear what they have to say. (If they are allowed to say anything.)

No clue! But I know that there's someone on here who's friends with Jessica (I think) in real life. It was mentioned on another thread.

That's interesting. I'd like to hear from Jessica or anyone else who's on the show or knows someone on the show.
