the biggest loser show



Recommended Posts

I think he NEEDED to go home...and the progress he made while home is amazing!

He definitely was retaining Fluid and I think that should have been talked about at the weigh in instead of making it look like he'd cheated somehow. I've seen patients gain up to 15 lbs in a DAY from retaining Fluid.< /p>

If the show ended today, I would be happy knowing how well he did Healthwise after going home. My dh was watching with me and he has many health problems and, I think, feels he can't exercise, etc... I think the show encouraged him but we'll see.

I loved the relationship he had with his daughter.

I would hate to think the show was rigged. I hated it when two years or so ago, one member drank so much Water that he gained 14 pounds in one week as a plan to get rid of someone. This show is such an inspiration for me, but I know I couldn't go on the show and do all they do. They have in the past had some one from a previous season come back and demonstrat something to the new group and I would love to have Ali come back so we can see how she has done since the show. I was surprised they let him on the show with all the medical problems that he had as they are liable for anything that happens to the contestants. I do believe he maintained a lot of Fluid and that was why the gain, besides the fact that they didn't do much while at the Grand Canyon as far as exercise. At any rate, I believe in the show and what it does for me if not the contestants on the show.

heres my take, personally I liked phil and his wife, the old "blue" team however had some major players, the blonde whose name I suddenly can't think of, the one who''s hubby went home last week and heba and her hubby they have all been playing for the money, the blonde more than anyone, this week they are gonna be so mean to Amy for protecting herself and voting to send the blondes hubby home, which if she hadn't the "blue" team would of sent her next. Phil being a guy was a treat, thats all I ever seen him do wrong, the 2 girls heba and the wicked witch and her now gone again hubby really wanted him gone. Wicked witch bragged that she would be the biggest loser and her hubby the at home winner at the beginning of the season. I think everyone realizes that now heba and her hubby have the advantage instead of the wicked witch, I dread watching how they will treat Amy but I can promise I'll be glued to it. Sometimes they show older shows of the season, you can go to nbc and link up or try the biggest loser, I know theres a lot there just not sure how much, it might help bring you up to date. Its been the most game playing season so far, which ya I'd want the money too, but I can't stomach the blue team - Amy. Amy was a bit whiney at the beginng when she was with Jillian but shes came around ans seen whats going on, hope this didn't confuse you more

I really like Heba, but then I tend to root for women who are the "largest" at the start. I feel more kinship with them, I guess.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
