Day 35 - Bidgest Loser Week 5

It is about time that Joelle was voted off of the Biggest Loser.  I feel sorry for Carla that she had such a weak and pathetic partner.  I am glad that Carla is doing well at home and I hope that she is able to make her goals by the finale.  It is a real testimony to the differences between the two that Carla has lost nearly double what Joelle lost and all but 9lbs of it was at home where as Joelle has not even doubled her rather pathetic weight loss since leaving the ranch.

My favorite moment from the show, aside from seeing Joelle go home, was when Jillian got all upset at Allison for suggesting that the yellow team member who went home and only lost 2 lbs had gained muscle.  I liked it because I have seen how it is nearly impossible to gain muscle mass and loose weight.  My body fat % has changed very slowly and my lean body mass went down over the month not up (though it went down at a slower pace than the fat.)   Listen to Jillian..if you work out and you don't lose weight it is not because you are gaining muscle.

 I am also glad that the Sione one the at home weigh in.  I really like the blue team and would love to see them go all the way.
