I wonder what week they are actually in right now?
their already done taping...

finale is in dec. so the 4 finalists are all out training on their own

not that it matters but how could anyone thing that the trainer dude guy wasn't gay - come on...
I had lost about 70lb before anyone even noticed id lost weight. going from fat to fat isnt that noticeable ... then from the last 20lb i lost suddenly everyone comes up and goes 'oh wow you've lost a lot of weight really really fast' and im like 'actually no, i lost it over a year'

Call me a geek if you will - but i didnt notice he was gay until 3rd series :/
Though i didnt notice my friend had an accent until about a year after i met her and she mentioned she was south african (and it was a pretty strong accent lol)

And as for what Steve said - i did always wonder why they are so heavy on the running in Biggest loser, Surely that much running at larger weights cant be that good for your legs/knees.

I got to watch tonight too. I about teared up when the "black" team thought they weren't going to get a chance.

Jillian is nicer than her persona. I get emails from looking into her program. Maybe she doesn't write the blurbs, who knows?

And Bob, I like him. I would want to be on his team if I was ever in that position.

The blond, I don't know her name because I didn't watch the show last year. She's just somewhere in the middle of the two for me.

Why did they change from the comedian to the soap star to host the show?

I remember watching the first season of this. I really haven't kept up on watching it. I watched a few episodes last season and I caught the tail end of last week's episode. If I can tonight I will watch it...just depends on what I am doing.

the blonde is named Kim and I havent liked her from day 1. she told all the people on her team that she had "body issues" lst season. i was SO mad.

they switched from Caroline to Alison i think because they had originnaly cast caroline after she was on celebrity fit club years ago... and i suspect they werent happy that she had put a lot of that weight back on. I dont know that for a fact, thats kind of my idea.
this alison sweeney chick is apparantly known for her weight loss on days of our lives. i dont watch soaps (only the prime time ones) so i didnt know her and when they showed her as "overweight" i was kind of annoyed but, whatever.

in any case, im really excited for this weeks show to see what kind of numbers the black team puts up.

I've seen her on soaps - only because when I was younger my step-mom watched them constantly. She's not the "best" actress IMO. She did have a weight problem, but I think she was a young kid then - but you know how they always make it a bigger problem than it is. I may be wrong but I think she did some celebrity endorsements for fat-loss supplements. I'll have to check and report back.

I just found it - Allison Sweeney at one time endorsed Xenadrine EFX. Also, she was never more than 15 lbs overweight at any given time. I don't know how much she "suffered" from weight issues.

Well shiat, you all make me want to check out the show now.

I must respectfully agree with Mal, to me it couldn't be more obvious that Bob is gay. That's fine and dandy but to me he's so feminine in some ways that I couldn't find him hot in a sexual sense, but he's definitely sweet and very attractive.

I really don't like the blond trainer from last year; I haven't seen this year's show yet but she got on my last nerve. Even Jillian's better.

I found Caroline a horrible host in many ways and I kinda liked the new blond on the Did they keep it off show; I love that fake blond hair. I haven't seen her on the show yet, but damn they are so full of it on that show so I could totally see them trying to take advantage of her supposed weight issue.

Its such a formula show in many ways, but I love me some reality TV.

The typical inspirational thing where they're supposedly changing their lives due to the show and are living happily ever after, but only after they go through the "struggles and hardships" of the show's "challenges" like having Jillian on your ass jogging up a hill in the hot sun while weighing 500 lbs .
