Yes! I think she might look a lot better with a shorter haircut (the curls are cut but they make her look bigger. Plus, she's pretty curvy and she picked a jacket that stops right at her hips so it made them look a lot wider. I was hoping she would make it to the make-over week because I figured she was one who could really use it.

I don't really mind that the smaller women are still there. They've worked their butts off to stay there (and are never the ones with the lower weight loss for who goes below the yellow line). Plus, if people don't want to be at the ranch than that's their problem, let the ones who want to be there stay!
Rulon is just ... weird. Not sure what to make of that. I don't think it was fair to let Tara compete. I kind of got the impression that did that because otherwise it would be too obvious that Rulon would win? I wonder if they actually expected her to win?
I do think, though, that i might be very good for Rulon continue at home. It needs to learn that this is a long term thing and not just for a competition. I don't think he gets that still. He keeps saying that his goal weight is his competition weight, which is 15lbs away but there's no way that's all he has to loose. He's much older and no longer a wrestler so I'd guess he probably doesn'T have the same muscle mass as before....
ETA: wow, and poor Ken. That's horrible. I'm glad he was able to deal with that, I just can't imagine.
