    i think she looks great. cant stand the people complaining that she is too small... some people like that look, having that super slender frame... i think she looks great, and i wish i could look like that!!!

    There is a difference between someone with a slender frame and someone with signs of starving themself. Seriously...I can't get over the derp factor in this thread.

    Gah, yes! This. *head desk*

    sorry, i disagree. i think she looks good.

    I don't care what YOU think. Your opinion doesn't change my opinion. Lol!

    Agree to disagree...and walk away?

    YOU dont have to care what i think, im posting on a message board where everyone posts thier opinion. you can agree to disagree with me all you like.

    This lady worked her butt off and lost 155 pounds and now she is getting nothing but negative feedback! Wow really!! Now tell me winning $250K and getting healthy wouldn't motivate you to do the same and WIN IT! Its a competition ppl and what do you join for if it not to win...come on ppl either your to fat or to skinny!! Good for her I support this girl she deserves praise but societys gotta crush her bubble! Well if more ppl would get their butt of the couch and put their time and energy into a great workout instead of knocking someone down after such a big accomplishment maybe obesity wouldn't be an issue in the world! Essshh!!!

    'Standing up and applauding' I agree 100%!! My hats off to the lady! She didn't get there sitting on the couch! Like you said it's a competition and I think people keep forgetting that...

    I'm pretty sure the purpose of this show was not to give out money. It was to teach, motivate, and inspire people to improve their health. She didn't do any of those things.

    i also dont believe the scale was correct. she doesnt look 105 to me! she looks a little bigger than 105.

    Camera adds ten lbs you know.

    For real though, if she were any lighter than she is now she'd have been crushed by that confetti falling on her.

    i think they should focus more on ruben now, because, he needs to lose some, his body has to be tired from all that weight.

    Jillian didn't even train her. Dovett did. While I think she does look a little too thin, she is shorter and 105lbs is probalby on the very low end but if she is definitely muscular. The controversy is crazy-people are so quick to jump all over everyone. SMH :grumble:

    Well, I do think the show is out to gain money and are not doing it for purely altruistic reasons, but I do watch, because I do learn from it, am motivated by it, and am inspired by it. I take what's useful and discard the rest. The producers are going outer limits, these days, though.

    I say let the lady have her reward and I am sure ABC is all smiles and giggles about all the controversy people are creating over it.

    I don't even watch this show and I know it's on NBC not ABC! :noway:

    Or, Reuben could focus on himself.

    It's amazing, if she can do that in 5 months, surely i can lose 62lbs. in that tike frame. She'd look extra amazing if she gained 25 lbs.

    .

    As for the loose skin questions - me thinks it's called PLASTIC SURGERY.

    Apparently they're under contract not to get any plastic surgery until after the Finale.

    She probably didn't have saggy arms because (in reading her story I discovered) she was a swimmer and quite athletic in high school and didn't gain weight until after she broke up with her college boyfriend....If she's only 24 now, and it does take some time to gain over 100 pounds from where you were, she hasn't been sitting at 260 for that long so it's much easier for her skin to shrink back quickly than someone carrying the extra weight for years and years or someone who is older and has less elasticity.
