Did anyone else watch Oprah today. She had Ali and Mark on from the biggest loser. They also showed some of them who had gained back the weight.
They were also saying how the women are on 1200 calorie and the men are on 1600. They burn over 4000 calories aday working out..wow I would die of a heart attack. That must be so hard for them when they have to come back to real life and try to keep there weight off. Got to give all of them alot of credit.
The show was great.

    Unfortunately even though I posted about it here so I'd remember to watch today... I got home from the gym too late to catch the show:sad:

    So I did see maybe the last 5 minutes or so of it..... what's the deal with SUSIE? Something about her getting 5 more seconds...is what Bob said....and she said no 5 more weeks? She looked like she gained (is that what they were giving her a hard time about???) but she was on video and I was only able to see part of the show...so that's all I know.

    Bummer on the gaining the weight back on those that did. All that hard work and being in the public eye would make it more stressful gaining it back I imagine.

    What else did they talk about? Like which folks were on today etc??

    Sadly... I missed 3/4 of it because my boyfriend who was going to record it for me while I was at work... fell asleep! :explode:

    Who gained beside the first winner? I think I missed the best and most informative part (the beginning) all I saw was ALOT of commercials.

    Susie just had another baby, she had 2 within 15 months. She married (I cant remember his name) The football player that won the season she was on. He gained back 35 lbs but he lost over 150.

    ah gotcha...makes sense now...wow 2 in 15 monthes...yikes that'd be scary after losing all that weight to feel ok about gaining a bit back with baby....

    Thanks for the fill in:flowerforyou:

    2 in 15 months isn't a trip I recommend to anyone...that's the reason I ended up here! LOL DS #1 07/2005, DS #2 11/2006, & DD 4/2008...that's 16 months between 1 & 2 & 17 months between 2 & 3...they weren't exactly "small" babies either. :grumble:

    I wish I would have known about this episode! I'm having a hard time getting into this season b/c I'm not attached to any of them like I was to people like Ali, Mark & Susie. Oh, well. I'm sure it'll be on re-runs at some point.

    I know it...I posted it here the other day or something and meant to hunt it down again this morning on here to bump it for anyone as well as myself to remember to watch....but...... :grumble: sigh .....oh well....over and done now.....haven't taken a look at the website, I think there might be something there... many of her shows often share a bit online.... I might check that...

    But I do understand what you mean about this season... I think there seems to be so much drama and just doesn't seem like previous seasons.

    I love that they are working hard and getting healthier but ARghhh I do hate the cattiness.. think that why the black team is more to my liking....seems like a more positive bunch.

    I've liked Coleen since the beginning so other than her.... I dunno... be interesting since isn't it next episode or the one following that all the former players come back??? I saw the preview about it but am not sure if that's the same week they go solo as well?

    OOOhhh! I don't know! I seriously can't stand all the blah blah blah that I've hardly been watching it. Maybe I will when everyone comes back! Always makes it more interesting!

    The thing is, that BL is NOT the real world! You know, the world we al share, where we have to go to work, be with our families, pay bills, all that stuff. When you get on BL, they remove you from ytour environment, pay your bills,and have both a personal trainer, and a personal physician at you beck and call. It's no wonder they regain the weight after that! How's about BL trying to counsel ppl in the real world? Or about following up with ppl to show them that they can keep it off, and here's how! Until BL does that kinda stuff, I'm decidedly NOT a fan. :huh: :frown:

    I can't remember her name, but the last girl that was on, I really liked what she said about especially women being worth doing something for yourselves! It just really hit home because between the house and kids I feel I just don't have time or energy for me or my husband. It's just a reminder that however busy life gets to always take time for me!!
