biggest loser - '09

I think Bob is one side of the scales and Jillian is the other. Together they even out. I like them both. I remember when Jillian left during Season 3 I think? Well, that show sucked. Big time. I missed her.

I like Jillian. I think I'd like Bob, too, since we really don't see it all. But, overall I'd prefer someone like Jillian working me.

But, that's what is so great - folks who hate that then they can route for Bob.

I did see on an interview that they're looking for another trainer...although they said they're not getting rid of Jillian or Bob. So, that should be interesting...maybe 3 teams?

{{me, too}} walking away for my water bottle.< /p>

so far this is a much better show than last week.

sort of felt sorry for Mike's (brown shirt kid) brother, Max.

If you look at it not as blue vs black, but rather as Bob's original team vs Jillian's original team, then perhaps it makes sense. Throw all the weigh-ins, get rid of all the ex-Jillian people, and go into the singles competition with enough Bob-bleheads to take out Tara and the other remaining Jillian folks.

Well, this apparently isn't the strategy either -- so I think they're simply incompetent game players. I appreciate emotional players, but they need to be thinking long term and not week-to-week.

This was definitely more of the tear jerker show.

I thought it was interesting the the blue-boys blew up at Jillian and won't work with her, but still hand her their shirts to hold.

I want to be Tara when I grow up. I'm 100% behind her.

Brown shirt dad did good this week. Wonder what happened to Tara? She has really worked her butt off.

To my surprise I don't have a favorite anymore. The blue shirt cousins are trying to redeem themselves. I saw that Jillian had Filipe's shirt.

Tonight's show didn't suck.

I felt bad for Brown Team's brother. Hopefully his brother will inspire him to lose. I was surprised that their Mom was fit and attractive. Usually, in a family of large people, the Mom is large too.

It was amazing at how far all of the contestants have come since their first day.

The girl on the blue team ate 2 Cookies but they didn't give her time to anyone....did anyone else notice this?

You are right. The only one that held her hand up was the pink shirt lady.

Bigbaby, where have you been? I don't see you posting on share what you ate.

If I was Tara I would have smacked the lady that ate the cookie. grrrrrr. She was so close to winning the 10K!!!! She inspires me, if a 200 lb chick can run 13 miles, why the heck can't I? lol.

I'm ready for them to break the teams up and go at it individually.

      I joined BariatricPal in 2008 & I FINALLY made the descision to have WLS!! I'm so excited & not sure what I need to do to get the ball rolling, but I made an appointment with my PCP for 7/19. It's a start I guess.

        I've been dreaming about it for 30 years or so. It's time to make it happen!

      I joined yesterday when I was struggling with this preop diet... 
      It typically comes and goes, the hard times and easier times. I'm on day 6 of 14  shakes, water, sf Popsicles and jello. And I might actually be losing my mind. But, oh dear lord has the fear set in. Not about the surgery itself, but life afterwards. If I feel this crappy on the preop diet, am I going to feel like this forever after? 
      I know most of the answers are no, not forever. It might be worse after for a while, then get better. I know it's a more of a mental challenge than physical after the first couple weeks of healing. I get all of that. But I'm starting to feel scared about losing myself afterwards. 
      It might be my hormones or desire to chew something salty talking.. It may go away soon or tomorrow.. I can hope, anyway. But right now.. The fear is real. 
       
      And this liquid diet can bite me.

        Fear is normal, but if it makes you feel any better, I'm 4.5 months post-op and the pre-op diet was by far the hardest part of the whole process. There will be challenges and a lot of new things to learn, but I can honestly say at this point I feel so much more "back to normal" and was even able to go on a week-long vacation with my kids without stressing over it. It's so worthwhile.

        @NickelChip This actually does make me feel better! Thank you so much! After the onslaught of Covid, we've all had to deal with a "new normal", so I know it's possible. It's just the fear and frustration in this moment that makes me question if I can find another "new normal" afterwards. The thought of just a few more months seems daunting some times, but I really do appreciate input and real experience. I'll use that to get me through for a few more hours! LOL. Thank you so much! And I'm glad everything is going so well for you! ❤️

      I started my 10 day pre op diet yesterday I need flavor!! I'm not big on the chocolate protein shakes so I just got to use up what I have was thinking about freezing it to make it like a ice cream so its something I can chew a little. Idk this is hard but I know I can do it just need to find new things to try

        You can try. I've read other people have had good results with protein-shake popsicles, etc. My personal experience with it? Sucked.

        I tried making 'fudgesicles' with a couple different flavors of a premade shake, as well as a protein powder I blended myself and all of them came out revolting? The powder ones, all the protein sunk to the middle; the premade shakes, the popsicle had a disgusting texture and the protein seemed to leave a weird fluffy film on the outside? I couldn't stomach it.

        Maybe look into flavoring additives? I was able to have sugar-free coffee /soda syrup flavorings, sugar-free drink flavorings and baking additives like almond, rum or pepperment extract. The extracts helped me the most as they added no extra sweetener.

        On the other hand, if you can get your hands on an unflavored/unsweetened protein powder, the syrup flavorings are perfect. I love to use Boost "Just Protein" (which is unflavored) with milk and a Chai-flavored sugarfree syrup.

        Good luck!
