After a month's platueau I lost 3 pounds this week! *insert screaming or dancing smileys here*
Started BL at 150
This week 147 WHOO HOO! I am very excited!

Yes I was upset about the show's changes. I didn't think it was fair, but that show is notorious for not being fair. All the people I usually want to stay get sent home so I am kind of used to it. I lost respect for those trying to throw the weigh in, but again, that's just the show!
I'm off to work out now! Have a blessed day!

I'll just have to try harder this coming week. I am not giving up.

I am very sad that the pink team left. I think the purple team should have been sent home. But what do I know????

this is my first BL weigh in. I weighed 180 when I started MFP. I lost 3 lbs last week, had an emotional eating day and today back up to 180. BUT, there's always a but, I lost inches. Unsure of how many. I bought a pair of jeans I thought I could fit in June. I couldn't fit them and they have been sitting in my closet ever since well I put them on yesterday!! That works for me for now! By reading everyones blogs and knowing that inches count as much as numbers I'm ok (today):laugh: HAPPY WEIGH EVERYONE! BTW I DVR'd BL and the pink team went home?!!?? That's insane!

Just a comment about the show - don't you think the black team is going ot top out pretty soon? I mean, they've got to get close to a healthy weight. 50 pounds in 4 weeks - that's insane. Maybe they'll fall below the yellow line next week Here's hopin'!

Down 3 pounds!!
Yipee!!!

Cherylann402

This was my first official weigh in since joining MFP!!! I lost 2 pounds this week!!!!
Starting weight: 185
Weight today: 183

I was sorry to see the pinks go home. They were doing so well! Plus, pink is my favorite color! :happy:
I thought that since they never fell below the yellow line, it was really stinky that they were eliminated anyway!

If it had been me deciding, I would have sent purple home. Not because I don't like them, but because they are younger and it would be easier for them to lose weight on their own. You can tell the mom, Betty I think her name is, would have lost more weight if she had stayed on campus longer. I'm sure it was harder for her to stay motivated at home. She still lost weight, and looks great, but it would have been better for her to stay longer!

They continue to talk about "biggest threat", well, to be honest, I don't think that a woman really has a chance to win when competing against men! Men just lose weight easier, (usually), plus they build muscle mass faster, etc. I think they should have eliminated one of the teams that had a man on it.
I also think they should have a season of all females. I think it would be more fair. JMO

Boo that the pink team went home. They should have sent the grey team home, strategy wise, but I can understand why they did the pinks. Oh well. Hopefully the Balck team will have a bad week & one of them will go next week.

Hey there everyone.....I am pretty new to the site and have been excited to weigh in this week and join all of you.
Last week: 218
This week: 216.5
Only a pound and a half but I also started my period last week. Geez.......But hey I am still happy. Trying for my first goal of 20 lbs.....starting with small goals first....heard it works better in your mind and with determination to start small. Watched Biggest loser and yea that was a little weird, but I do understand why the yellow team did what they did for sure. I just hate how arrogant that Mark is....nodding away when Allison said they were safe. Too bad cause his bro seems nice. Next week should get interesting. Sad to see pink go though...loved the mom...soooo cute.

MMMom2008

Hay one more post here.....what are all you doing to lose weight?? Just curious what everyone else is doing?

bla115

:bigsmile: Finally I busted through the 2 week plateau!!!!!:laugh: :happy:
Starting weight last week: 144lbs
Today's weigh in: 140lbs!!!!!!!!
4 lb total for the week!!!!!! Yippeeee!!!!!!

As far as the show goes..... Why is the purple team still there?!!!! Geez...they've pulled the lowest overall numbers and yet the pink team goes home??!!! I l loved Betty-Sue. I thought she kicked butt. Sad to see her go.

Starting weight: 197

This week: 189 :explode: :explode:
However, I did my measurements and they are down yet again! That's nice! I can't complain too much!

Ok, so I have definitely lost some respect for the yellow team. They KNEW that the orange, blue, and purple teams threw the weigh in (esp the orange team) and they still sent the team home that really tried. UGH! I have no respect for alliances when they have to win by cheating. I would so much rather see the black team win at this point because they are doing it with integrity (so far anyway, it could always change). This is going to be an infuriating season! :grumble:

I also was upset that the pink team went home. Black team should of been the ones to go home.

charny164

Lost 3.4lbs this week.

JMO - Orange and black are the biggest threat. Yes, its great to make friends and meet nice people but you go there for one purpose only - Lose Weight! I thought pink should have stayed. Its too bad but its just a game right? Glad that the mom had her rant before they left LOL. As for purple, I don't know if they are really trying anyway. The heavier you are the faster you should lose. I know that purple threw the weigh in but seriously! The last few weeks it was a pound here and a pound there. They are working out up to 6 hrs a day! Geez, it should be falling off of them! They are really young too!!!

Oh well, whatever. The writers strike is on so shaking things up makes for something interesting to watch. Not too much else on tv right now anyway.

Good luck everyone! Happy that you are all losing! :happy:

Doesn't surprise me because the last couple of days have been kinda bad. Just been really tired and stuff. But hey, still lost a pound and total I've lost 12 pounds! Keep up the good work everyone!

I must say, I agree with all of the posts about the Black team both needing to go home, but at least they are playing with integrity. This allience thing is dumb. If I wanted to watch peopl do that I would watch Survivor. (I might be the only one here that thinks this but THAT is a DUMB show!)
It has NOTHING to do with what you need to do to survive. HECK LOST is more about survivial then Survivor. But people watch it, so I guess they have a following.
I digress. Next week they are voting of one person from a team. IF they where going to do that, THEY SHOULD have STARTED that way.
Why is the Purple team still there? I do not know... Maybe it is because they are nice people, Maybe it is because they seem to work hard. I will say SEEM here as from what we have seen they are working hard, but they are not pulling numbers like the others. IN FACT if they where on HERE they would lose about the same numbers. Hey I lose around 1 to 2 pounds a week and I do not have two professional trainers working my butt for 6 to 7 hours a day! So they HAVE to be sherking SOMEWHERE. RIGHT??????????????
Oh and Do not think for One minute that Bob and Jullian do not know what these people did to throw the weigh in. You wait and watch Trainers kick some lazy, allience thinking butt this week.
I think it would be better if they just did the show and did not vote people off and whoever was indeed the BIGGEST LOSER at the end of the 3 months, was the winner.
These are just my thoughts on this, What do you all think?

Start weight: 225lbs.

Total weight loss this week: 1 lb.:ohwell:

Total weight loss: 7 lbs.

I'll keep working at it!!! One comment from someone about me losing weight, so happy about that! It's going to be a long haul!!!

I have been feeling hungry a lot this past week. Should I eat more?? I'm following all my calories and water!

P.S. Also didn't want to see pink go home. Purple needs to step it up. They haven't had a big loss yet! Every one will keep them there because they are no threat. Maybe that's their strategy!

mechanicmom

I agree Diann, that I wish everyone could stay on and then see who is the Biggest Loser at the end. I think the purple team is still there becaue they aren't a big threat. They are only losing a few pounds so they aren't really threatening to take over yet. They might be flyng under the radar for awhile. In a couple weeks, if they are still there, they may suddenly lose 14 pounds! Just a thought!

loss of 2 lbs this week
loss of 15 lbs overall (past 3 weeks)

I only got to watch the last half of the show last night so I didn't understand why the yellow team was against the other 6 teams, but as the show progressed I figured it out. what I think I missed is why they didn't all choose the black team to be the team they would vote off next if all the teams seem to hate them so much???

I have nothing against the pink team, but I am personally glad the purple team is still there...there has to be some reason why they're not getting numbers like everyone else...either they don't have the exercise part down, or they're still not getting the eating part right, or something....I think they should get to stay there until they find what works for them....I think if they were to go home right now they would be really discouraged and give up....but I think the pink team understands enough of what they need to be doing that they will be just fine.

I do agree though that all the teams should get to stay the whole time and just see who is the biggest loser at the end, but I guess the fear of elimination is a pretty good motivator for them...

well congrats to everyone for their hard work this past week!!
