    This is going to be another great season. Watch the Red team....I get a funny feeling from that wife. :ohwell:


    ME TOO! I think she's got potential to be this seasons "Vicky"....Or as I'll call her "V3" (Vicky, version 3")

    See, we were right!!! And I am so glad that Bob called her out when she weighed-in. GO BOB!!!!

    Yeah...we pegged her, didnt we! ACK...really get bad vibes from her. I'm glad he called her out too....about time someone did it to some of these contestants that are just game players!! Jillians my fav, but Bob gets a big 'atta-boy' from me for that one!!

    Y'all are good! You pegged the woman in red right off the bat! :smile:

    I agree with all the comments made about the Taco Bell and Jillian, but I was actually struck by another thought as well.
    I really thought her facial expression was one of a person truly becoming physically ill and I wondered, What must it be like to have such clean eating habits that something processed like that could actually make you ill? I'm in total agreement with kelynn that I have no interest in a diet/lifestyle which would never again allow me a piece of pizza, cheeseburger (insert favorite food) etc. Do you think it was ALL dramatized or are there people who have such clean diets that they cannot eat fast food, processed food and enjoy it??? I can't imagine what that must feel like!

    I noticed that too!

    So I was watching last night and I noticed when they weigh-in the lines tend to change colors depending on the team thats weighing in. So red teams lines are a reddish-pink color and black team was a greyish (I dunno if it alternates on all teams, or between those two.. but I did notice it)... may help in those next week 'teasers' in finding out who it may be ahead of time. :wink:

    Edit: I just rewatched the week 3 teaser clip and the lines were that same reddish-pink color. Its definately the wife on the red team.

    Hi Everyone. Hope you don't mind me chiming in on your discussion, but I love the Biggest Loser. Remind me again who "vicky" is that you're comparing contestants to? I've seen most of the seasons but one, so may have missed or forgotten her. I loved Danny last year. He was so sweet. I couldn't believe the before and after at the finale. He looked like a completely different person! I haven't decided who my favorite is yet for this season, but the show is very motivating. Thanks for the great topic!

    hey, i remember vicky, and i didnt like her. im not sure who i want to win yet, i just wanna see them all lose weight and be happy. im not sure bout how i feel bout red team yet....shes just more outspoken, but she had the advantage and did what she thought she had to do to have a better chance next wk. someone mentioned tracey from last season. nobody liked her because she did a temptation early on.....SO WHAT!!!!! she was annoying, yes, but look how good she did, even with every1 on the ranch hating her. she didnt have support from any1 except Moe and she didnt give up once. that 1 week she didnt have a trainer and she lost more working on her own than the others did with the trainer and not 1 person clapped for her an the weigh in. now i thought that was childish of all of the other players. they clap for everybody else, ya know. there was that 1 temptation that alot of the teams participated in and tracey won and they were all mad at her for getting lucky and picking the winning one.....that was also childish, its not like it was planned!!! she came back to the finale and was very tiny, so whatever she was doin was workin!! now, it can be annoying when ppl wanna play the game, but it is a game!! if u have the opportunity to do something to keep yourself there another week then you gotta do it, cuz u gta stay on the ranch.

    See, I was thinking she was too overdramatic, too. Until I thought what it would be like to eat some cold Taco Bell food at this point. I'm pretty sure I made the same faces while thinking about it Jillian was making while eating it. GROSS! Thinking about eating cold pump cheese seriously almost made me gag. When I told my boyfriend I thought Taco Bell really would be gross to me now he looked absolutely horrifed & then said "I don't even know you anymore!!" :laugh:

    Vicky was the one on the purple team last season with Coach Mo. She fainted on the beach the first day and was taken to the hospital.

    That was Tracey last season. Vickie was on the Couples verison a couple seasons ago with her husband. Her and Heba had an alliance.

    I always DVR and watch it the next morning. My husband has control of the remote, and I am getting kids to bed. He doesn't like my "fat people show" I think it just makes him feel guilty. :smile: I am excited to watch it tomorrow though.

    That's the best part. I usually start watching an hour into the show that way I can fast forward through commercials. :laugh:

    :noway: Ooooh I thought Red Husband was going to hit Bob last night! I LOVE the previews for next week.

    Red Husband: You called her a liar in front of AMERICA
    Jillian: That's because she LIED!

    :laugh: :laugh: Man I can't wait until weigh in to see what she ends up losing/gaining!!!

    I don't necessarily think that it is going to be the red team that is going to be full of drama this season. I think I like them better than a few of the others. Whew there was lots of drama and emotion this week!

    Argh! They are definitely picking a team for drama every season.:frown:
    I despise the game play aspect, but that isn't what bothered me most...I agree with Bob and Jillian that it is so disprespectful to all the people who didn't make it and everyone there who is working so hard to continuosly throw weigh ins. Isn't the goal of the show to *lose* weight!?!? No one has ever gone 3 weeks and lost less than10 pounds (or whatever her week 1 loss was). Alison's face was priceless. She usually doesn't seem to react but she definitely seemed as upset as Bob and Jillian at the blatant lies that woman was telling. I was screaming at the TV! :laugh: Can't wait for next week! There is no way she goes down to 186 (where they show the scale stopping) 28 pounds in 1 week!?! If she does,she must have been adding weights to her shoes!!!

    I agree with what everyone is saying about the red team. Did you all see when Lance snatched his shirt back out of Bobs hands??!! They just seem really ungrateful for the help that Bob & Jillian have been giving them. If I was Lance I would be very embarassed at the way my wife was acting & carrying on.

    What about Jillian breaking down Migdalia on the green team and getting through that tough attitude. Jillian may have went over the line saying Migdalia's 9yo daughter is going to end up fat just like her and her mother.

    being there is about losing weight of course, but if you dont do what ya gotta do then u end up going home and then u dont have the biggest loser anymore. her # didnt matter this week or last so now she has the opportunity to lose a big # next week and keep them there longer. thats what its about.....staying on the ranch as long as possible. after all, it is just a game. she better just hope that her plotting and scheming doesnt come back to bite her in the *kitten* this week. lol, what if they get immunity again this week!!! its only week 3, personalities are just starting to come out so who knows what people are gonna be like. the person to be pist at is the white guy, not the red team. the white guy needs it more than anyone because hes soooo big and unhealthy and hes not really even doing anything.

    the red team is definitely "in it to win it" - she's throwing weigh ins, and if she thinks she's fooling Bob, Jillian, the show, the viewers, they are sadly mistaken. If Bob and Jillian said NOTHING we would all still know she was doing it. They just drink a TON of water before the weigh in to counter-act their real weight loss results.. I'm sure we'll see some "shocking" results next week when she loses a ton of weight. I was proud of the gray team for keeping the integrity (sp) of the weight loss - keep doing your best through the whole show. I think that's why one of my favorite contestants was Tara, since she ALWAYS worked at it. She didn't throw weigh ins, and that's something to be proud of. I liked the point Ali made, had gray team switched the red team would have been screwed- and she would have gone home. Too bad they didn't do that.

    A big "I agree!" with Mina. The gray team definitely won my respect this week for their work ethic. They had immunity and could have slacked off to save the big numbers for next week, but they are in it to change their lives. I also agreed with their assessment of Michael on the white team. I was thinking the same thing watching him in the workout room. He doesn't really have his heart in it yet, and making the excuses for aches and pains, and everyone else being so flexible was just nonsense, Especially when the twin (sorry I forget his name...John, Jim?) weighs almost as much as Michael and is icing his knees down daily so that he can keep working away at it. It's funny, because when the show first started I really thought I would end up rooting for the white team because he was the biggest contestant. But now he's coming across as kind of spoiled. I hope the gray team's message wakes him up and really motivates him to get in the game and start fighting like he means it. And I thought Jillian was brave to tackle the green team. Personally, I think they're kind of scary (attitude)! LOL! My DVR cut off before the next week's previews so I missed that part. Darn!

    Question...I just started watching this show with last year's season (the one with Shay, Danny, etc.) and
    have become addicted to it.

    I can find some episodes on youtube, but why hasn't NBC come out with a dvd set from the previous
    seasons?

    I'd probably use all of my vacation time, lock myself in my house and watch all of the seasons non-stop
    until I've seen them all.
