Default BL - tonight!

Hey everyone...I just saw Matt & Suzy on the Today show...they are so cute. They really didn't say too much about their relationship...talked about their journey to weight loss & self-loving.
Don't forget about tonight's show...Family vs. Family (they both own resturants).

Thanks for reminding us! The previews of this week's show looked really good. I will be out at dog training class tonight,but I will be sure to set up the VCR to tape it (not quite in the days of TiVo yet!)

It was very good too!! I was really glad when the young girl 16 , can't remember her name yet, lost 21#... I was as proud of her as her own mom !

Just watched the first half tonight. I really wish they would show the whole thang in one night though. :P One thing that I was curious about is the 50's Diner Family....they deep fry everything, and I was wondering if this would perhaps motivate them to change their 50's restaurant into a healthier restaurant with lean turkey instead of ground beef...the usual stuff. It would be interesting to see how much more their business improved if they did that. Same deal with the Italian family.

It was a great show tonight and I can't wait until next week's episode. I too wish they would show the whole story in one week, but that's TV for you, I guess! Both of the families seemed like such great people and so motivated...I wonder what will happen when they return to their restaurants.

I agree, those girls were great, and I loved how they were supporting each other and empathizing with each other's struggles, rather than getting catty and competitive. I just LOVE this restaurant family special so far.

I'm enjoying this one too, more so than the couples one. I felt so bad for those girls and their moms, but I was so excited to see how well the girls did. I was rolling when Jillian handcuffed that guy to the treadmill! I felt really bad when that one girl from the Italian family reset the treadmill during the challenge.

Can't wait to see the 2nd part of this one.

TribeFan - I felt SO nervous when they were doing the treadmill thing and so bad for the lady that reset theirs at the end. That SO seems like something I would have done because I can be such a clod at times. I would have needed my family yelling at me the whole time, "Only hit the stop button ONCE - not TWICE!" so I wouldn't freak out and forget.

And at the Italian dad being handcuffed to the treadmill. It seemed kind of kinky, but funny at the same time.
