    Good for her, BUT, sad for us :(
    I love Jillian, she's a huge part of the show. The one season she was away, I didn't like her replacement. Here's to hoping they don't have her on full-time

    I know I will take some flack for saying this, but they need some fresh trainers in there. What used to be spontaneous, is now becoming contrived. Maybe even scripted.

    I agree with RoadDog. I quit watching the show 2 seasons ago because it all became the same thing all the time, especially with Jillian. She has to wring the emotions out of everyone and be the big b***** with a heart of gold. I just hope they don't bring back that idiot blonde trainer. She is on the Cardio Blast dvd and I can't stand her.

    I'm glad she is leaving

    I am tired of her talks with the players.

    Its that.....tell me whats bothering you even though nothing is bothering you I am just going to make you feel awful about yourself until you tell me something dramatic that happened in the past but know dramatic things just happen to every one I just want ratings to go up and make myself feel good crap.

    I am not surprised she is leaving. She hated the game aspect of it, and that contestants would get to the ranch and ask for and agent!:grumble: I AM surprised to hear she want to have kids. I remember her famous rant about "I'd never do that to my body" :laugh: Maybe she'll have more compassion for us moms :tongue: I'm happy for her, she has obviously reached a new point in her life.

    I enjoy her also...but...she has to live her life too. And I agree they brought that other trainer Kim I think her name was...and it's not that I didn't like her...but her trying to be mean was rather funny to me. She will never be Jillian. I do c her in my BL work out vids but I must confess I don't do her part of the exercise....no offense trainer lady. LOL

    I used to work with a personal trainer that was a lot like her. The in-your-face approach did not work well with me. She harassed me to the extreme if I shared with her any indulgence or imperfection in my diet. It had the opposite effect on me and I ended up feeling overwhelmed for not being perfect with my diet (this was years ago before I saw the light). Some people can take that kind of treatment and it will help them change, but I just felt beat down by my trainer and got depressed (I've had a problem with chronic depression most of my life). I have mixed feelings about Jillian.

    I think someone said earlier that she is adopting.

    I wonder who the replacement will be. Will they find a past contestant to help, or some well known trainer?

    If it's a past person from the show, my money is on Tara Costa. But I'm just dreaming.

    @ Dizzieferg : She isn't doing it to herself. She's most likely adopting a child.

    Good for her....I just hope they don't bring back Kim Lyons that had replaced her a few years ago...she was bad.

    I guess you didn't see the "where are they know" episode a few weeks ago. Tara is in no "shape" to be a trainer. I guess she has 6 months to get lose some of the weight she regained to be a creditable trainer.

    HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! You totally nailed it, dude.

    I think Jillian means well, but she has not taken to celebrity very well. Its gotten to the point that you can pinpoint almost exactly when she's going to lose her temper with someone or give a "motivational speech". It's felt very contrived the past few seasons...I say bring on the new blood.

    I think the show will suffer without her, but personally I prefer Bob to Jillian!

    Last I saw on the show a few weeks ago, she did a triathalon with other contestants from TBL among other people and won in the women's division. So...no, I didn't see the show showing her out of shape. I saw the other one. Maybe what I saw was an older one?

    Edit: I guess so. I missed that she fractured her tibia. Yeah, that'll do it.

    As for a credible trainer? What has she done that has made her a not good trainer? You can message me if you'd like, so this thread doesn't get dragged down.
