  • You may not get the same verbal compliments as fw does, but your weight loss is definitely being noticed! (Maybe not by your wife who sees you everyday... : / but other people are certainly noticing!) I personally like my men on the caveman side. If I heard a man talking about how fat he looked and how he was trying to…

  • This was my thought as well. I guess I'm just a casual user of MFP, because I don't religiously log every calorie I eat or burn. I certainly don't scrutinize the food diaries of people on my friends list unless they are asking why they aren't losing weight. I guess my advice would be: if they ask your opinion, give it.…

  • My husband has a small, simple image of a dove (symbol of the holy spirit) on his left shoulder, and a big, beautiful warrior-like angel (Michael) holding a flaming sword on his right shoulder. It sounds like you are wanting an image that reminds you of his love for you. Maybe a crown of thorns circling a heart? Or, if you…

  • wow, these last two episodes have been really great! After last week, I can see why some of you like Rulon and the yellow team. They are some upright men and good leaders. I liked how they didn't want to send Q's wife home since she worked hard and he was slacking. And how bout that Arthur? Boy oh boy, what a mess. He…

  • Ready for TBL tonight? I guess this will be the weigh-in from Week 4, and the Unknowns joining team B&J.

  • Grrrr SOTU took an hour off my TBL. I guess we have to wait til next week to see the weigh-in. I wonder if Don really wants to be there now or what. I was glad he "got all the beeps out," but I'm not convinced there was a break through. NO ONE was surprised Aurther ate. His "I'm not letting anyone control my future" excuse…

  • I feel bad for the Black team b/c they are likeable guys, but seem to have a loser mind-set that keeps them from succeeding. I was so excited for them the first week (or second week?) when they both lost a big number after doing poorly in every challenge. Sabotaging their own success is totally in line with their…

  • So glad to be out of my 20's! What an ignorant and selfish time that was, especially the first half.

  • I haven't seen last night's episode yet, but lloydrt, I agree with you that I really like the twin brothers who are cops. I was SO HAPPY for them when they did end up doing well on the scale, because, like one of them said, they kept coming in last on EVERYTHING, I was worried they would come in last on the scale as well.…

  • I can't believe this show has started back up again so quickly! I thought there was a longer break between seasons.... So is anyone watching this season? It looks like that 4 weeks of immunity is not going to be all that important if team B&J can get their butts in gear. I was expecting an entire team to get voted off last…

  • This is the perfect time to get started!! If you can "just say no" to all the Christmas sugar, it will be all downhill from there come January!
    in 130 Lbs to go! Comment by shinybonnie December 2010
  • Glad to see that Patrick won! Was hoping it would be Aaron for the at-home portion, but I have to say that Mark looked AMAZING!! Looking forward to what's coming up next season, though, really, they need to stop going for "the Biggest Contestants Yet" thing they do each season... come on, 500 lbs is big enough!

  • Ditto. I'm rooting for Ada and Jessica, but they will be gone next week, so why watch anymore. I don't want to see anyone on the other 3 teams win.

  • Sorry, Adam, I don't have any predictions, but I did just want to throw in my 2 cents. Regarding Elizabeth, I do believe she is giving it her all - over 110%! How many times has she worked until she PASSED OUT! That said, she is slowing the Black team down much more than Anna did. They would have been better off to vote…

  • Totally agree with everything you said here, except my prediction is either Jessica OR Jesse.

    in Biggest Loser 10 Talk Comment by shinybonnie October 2010
  • Man, I wish I hadn't missed it! I like the blue team for their lack of "game-playing," but I'm wondering if their lack of game play is actually lack of brains. I have no idea why they chose Elizabeth to represent the black team. Allowing Jessica to rep the blue team was not a stupid move - all of them worked really hard…

  • SPOILER ALERT!!! Can anyone tell me what happened on TBL tonight? I saw all the way up to where Jessica only lost 4 pounds, so I know which team lost the weigh-in, but I don't know who they voted off. Thanks!

  • So does anyone else think the black team really over-thought their choice to send Rick home? He was definitely NOT the weakest link on the team and really could have helped the team in future challenges and weigh-ins (compared to Elizabeth? come on!). They said they did it because they knew they were getting Patrick and…

  • I don't think Brendon was playing it straight! 2 pounds? No way. Him and Frado have been very outspoken about "playing the game," from episode 2! I wish Anna had known to separate those boys. I think they made a mistake with who they chose to vote off... **********************SPOILER…

  • HAhahaha! And I don't know how many times I've heard one of the contestants say, "nobody knows how hard it is until you get here. No one who hasn't been to the ranch can understand how TRULY hard it is." Pfffft! Come on. You've known the person, what, 10 weeks tops?
    in Biggest Loser 10 Talk Comment by shinybonnie October 2010
  • Yeah, I do feel bad for Ada. That story is pretty crazy. But I noticed almost all the contestants had some sympathetic back story this season.

  • Ready for some BL tonight! I was glad to see the "3rd wheels" who'd been left behind the first episode show up in the preview for this week. I hope the guy from Alaska gets to come on, but then again, we don't need ANOTHER guy on there losing double digits. This yellow line in the middle really sucks for the girls and I…

  • Emily - do you just take the meal out of the freezer in the morning, put it in the crockpot and cook it all day?

  • sorry, didn't mean to post that twice... I remembered another thing I love: buy those 10lb bags of frozen chicken breasts. Put one or two in the crockpot with about a cup of italian dressing. Turn it on low before you leave for work and you'll have some yummy chicken when you get home. You can use barbeque sauce instead of…
