Biggest Loser (Spoilers)
What do you ladies think of last night?
First off I will say that I am shocked at how much the black team splurged! That was an insane amount of food plus the drinking and smoking! I think they were totally out of line and Jillian had every right to be pissed. I understand Felipe being upset about the workout the day before and all but I don't think Bob should have let them workout with him right away. I think he should have talked to Jillian first because if he was the trainer for them he'd be equally as pissed. I am starting to worry that Jillian will not be back next season after this whole fiasco. I am now wondering if that casting for a new trainer is to replace her. She seems pretty fed up this year.

Re: Biggest Loser (Spoilers)
They're casting for a new trainer? I hadn't heard that!
I think she had every right to be mad. I think if I were Felipe I would be pissed but at the same time, perhaps she realized that HE could do it without her being on him the entire time whereas the other's can't.
I laughed pretty hard at her comment about cigarettes won't cause lung cancer if you smoke them on the Biggest Loser campus!
French, I saw the casting announcement on the BL website about a month ago.
I loved her comments too! I didn't even realize that Helen smoked. I thought for sure it would be Laura when they showed the previews because I believe she smoked when she was at home for 30 days.
I just could not believe that mandy gained 2lbs. She worked her butt off, I wonder if her diet was the reason because they never really show what they are eating all the time.
After seeing how cocky the black team was being I was really rooting for the blue team to win the weigh in. I wonder if all the stress from the week is what got to Mandi. But her gain was definitely a shocker!
MH and I were just in awe at how much the black team ate while on their 24 hours of relaxation. I knew as soon as liquor got involved it would just get worse from there! Since Mike was underage and wasn't drinking I hope he was watching and realizing how stupid they were acting and how they were ruining everything they were working for that week all in one night!
But I have to say those Kobe beef sliders sounded really good that they had for appetizer
(Sorry I'm late - we watched this last night.)
I thought Mike had had the Kobe beef sliders for an app as well and was SHOCKED to see Tara not lose anything (she had the shrimp cocktail and the entree that was only like 4XX calories versus everyone else's 900-1500 calorie entrees.)
I was really rooting for the blue team to win last night's weigh in. Poor Mandy - but she looked great. (Just goes to show that sometimes just pushing yourself harder to burn MORE calories but not accounting for that extra work in your diet and stress can really take a toll!)
I have NO SYMPATHY for Felipe. (And he needs a freaking haircut already.) THIS IS HIS HEALTH & FITNESS... if Jillian didn't approach him for a 1-on-1 workout, it is HIS responsibility to approach her, IMO, to say "Hey Jillian, are we doing 1-on-1? We haven't had any all week." Yes, he's on campus, but FCOL, if he's not going to take responsibility and ownership of his own workouts to an extent, WTF is he going to do when he goes home? Live for seeing a trainer he hires? And his "Bob would understand..." line about how Jillian reacted to their HUGE splurge? Uh... no. Bob would've totally flipped out, quite possibly WORSE than Jillian.
When is the blue team going to realize they keep screwing themselves? I'm all for loyalty but Ron needs to go. He's so selfish "It's Mandy's turn to go home." Who the fvck says?! He's just about useless, hello?! Mandy REALLY helps them - in challenges AND in weigh ins. (Anyone else notice that after the first week that they switched trainers, Mandy's numbers since training with Bob aren't fantastic?)
I wouldn't blame Jillian for taking a season or two off. Did you catch where she said she lays awake at night trying to think of what she can say to get these people to the place they need to be? And her friends/family keep telling her "There's nothing you can say!" And yet, it still eats at her. That takes a HUGE toll on her mental, emotional, and even physical health.
I agree with you Paula about Ron needing to go. I really liked the guy in the beginning, but he is pulling the team down. Surely he knows that and should stand up and say something. I think that Ron will not be able to keep the weight off whether he stays on campus or off. Look at all the failed attempts he's had in the past and his body is so out of shape he just cannot workout like he needs to.
I also think Bob would have flipped possibly even more than Jillian if he were in her shoes. I felt bad for Jillian. She obviously doesn't feel like she is doing the best she can which she is, it's the players. One of her players have won the competition almost every season she's been on.
