    I have to agree with you on this one. I cannot believe how amazing she looks.. Also, there is not 1 piece of sagging skin anywhere on her body!!! How did she do this?? Both of the guys had a ton of loose skin on their arms!! Hers.... Tight as Fort Knox!!

    Y'all DO realize that there is controversy surrounding her weight loss, right? They're saying that she lost so much that she's underweight, according to her BMI. People are not in agreement with the show rewarding her for something that is potentially dangerous to her health and well-being.

    Just thought I'd share that...

    Young women who were previously athletic tend to do well on this show. In my opinion she looked a bit gaunt, but if I were 28 and had a chance at $250K, I would have pushed it too. She can always add some back, and probably will. It really made me rethink my goals, though. Thin is great, but skinny looks icky on women past a certain age.

    Agreed. I hope she gains a few pounds to fill out her face a little better.

    Dear Jillian Micheals,
    Me next! Do me next! Rachel and Jillian standing next to each other looked really similar. I love Jillian's shape and would kill to have it as well.
    :love:

    It's a GAME show for goodness sakes she was in it to win it, she had the most weight loss, so she deserves to win. She worked her butt off "literally"!

    Hee hee...alternate reality. That's a good one.

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

    When she left the ranch she was 19% BF and had 121lbs of lean mass and 28.5lbs of fat. Now she is 105lbs. So she lost AT LEAST 30lbs of lean mass IN A MONTH. That is a HUGE amount of lean tissue that she's catabolized in a very short amount of time between the second last episode filming and the finale. Shes not somebody you should look up to, JMO. Losing 45lbs in a month is extreme for anyone, but its ridiculous for someone who was already in a normal weight range. She had to have had a 5000+ deficit a day.

    I'm sorry. She looked awful. She was quoted as saying she did cardio all day. All. Day. She lost 45 pounds in three months. She lost a ton of muscle.

    That's not good.
