I am not voting because I can't decide who I want to stay. My vindictive side says keep Ron because he wants his son there, but I want to kick his butt off.

Either way - I get a fill tomorrow! This should put me back where I was before my gallbladder surgery and on the road to happy band life again!

I didn't know Jillian had a book. That is worth looking for.

Watched the show with interest last night...I'm amazed that they all finished a marathon! I don't know if I'd be ready to do that...that was awesome!

Jillian is hot - no matter what her orientation. :wub: I'd love to have her arms. :wub::wub: Even my DH who usually says women her size "need a sandwich" doesn't have ANYTHING bad to say about Jillian...

Love Tara - I hope she wins it all.:thumbup:

Helen whines too much for me - grow a set, already!:thumbup:

Mike finishing the marathon with a semi-injured hip was cool to watch - very inspirational.:D

Ron finishing the marathon was amazing - pure grit. He just refused to give up and it was very cool to see all the past participants come and walk with him. Yep, I still dislike him overall, but last night was a redeeming moment for him.

Feeling sorry for Max - he's got three people in his house that have lost the weight and he's still big. To his credit, he really seems to be working on it - I hope he makes it.

Can't wait for the live finale!:thumbup:

While I'm very proud of Ron for FINALLY finishing something in his life, it also aggravates me that much more about his whiny ass and all those times he quit almost immediately after starting.

In the half-marathon, he went (somebody said) about 3 miles. Well, he PROVED last night that he COULD do it, twice over. Same with every other challenge he's quit. Last night proved that he COULD do it, he just consistently chose not to. Like he chose not to let the gastric bypass work for him.

Plain, I didn't know that Ellen was from Atlanta, Tx. I live in Omaha, just a stone throw away from you.

Oh, I live closer to you than that. I reside in the metropolis of Douglassville.

You know you like it....

Even my DH who usually says women her size "need a sandwich" doesn't have ANYTHING bad to say about Jillian...

She's a little too "muscle-y" for me (I know, y'all really care, right....lol). I find it fascinating.....the difference between what men find physically attractive and what women THINK men would find physically attractive.

Yeah, no. Not really.

Nah, I think it's about what women find fascinating and realizing the hard work that's involved.

Don't you know yet that women don't do stuff for men? They do things (makeup, clothes, exercise/good bodies) for other women. Duh! :thumbup:

I saw Daniel tonight at the gym. He's lost 148lbs!!! He looks great! He said that all the contestants are weighing in on Sunday morning. I can't quite figure out the reasoning behind that, other than they don't want all the contestants looking dehydrated and pale at the Finale on Tuesday. Just wanted to update everyone on his progress!!

Wow! Sounds like he's right on track to keep it off. I wish him well.

I just bought some Jillian Michaels stuff -- the book mentioned here plus two dvd's, another book, and a box full of 50 different exercise routines. Guess I'm gonna get Jillianized. :)

There's also a Wii game. My sis bought it and one of those Wii boogie boards.

(I figure I'll get it from her cheap here in about 6 months) :)

Hehehehe!!!

I keep saying nwo is about the time to check CraigsList and places that buy used workout equipment. All that stuff people got for Christmas with the best of intentions is probably collecting dust about now.

that's awesome...

I just heard he got a job at a Gold's Gym.

I am traveling down to N.C. in a month to visit. I have been wanting to chat with him. We belong to the same Car Club, different chapters though.

That's awesome to hear about Daniel - he's going to be really close to hitting the 50% mark at that rate, and may be a contender for the at-home contestants' prize.

I'm really glad he's doing so well - it broke my heart to watch him struggling. He's showed a lot of courage and commitment by sticking with it at home - he should be very proud of himself.

I can't wait to see what Joelle and Carla did while they were away, plus the other woman who was eliminated, but came back and was eliminated again the first week back...can't remember her name right now. She was on with her then-fiance...;)

      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.
