Day 49 - Biggest Loser Week 7

Here are my thoughts on last night's episode of biggest loser:

Bob went a bit overboard when he told his team to not ask for his help anymore when it comes to elimination. He wanted them to vote off Dane but they voted off Blaine. I feel this shows respect for Blaine's wishes and puts honor above game play. Though I can understand why Bob was frustrated it is a bit extreme to say you will not give advice in the future. Also it is probably not true since he likely will still give advice.

Laura showed this week that she can work hard. I think that Tara was really discouraging her partner by reinforcing the idea that she did not work as hard. It is perfectly understandable that Laura is not going to have the same endurance, strength and stamina as Tara since Tara has a whole month's advantage from being at the ranch while Laura went home. I think that Laura really does want to work hard but has a hard time keeping up with Tara.

I thought it was really fun when a bunch of the players wrestled around in the mud. I think it really shows that they are all really fun people who are not out to get one another.

It appeared the Jillian really seemed to flounder without the gym. While I would say that the weigh in proved otherwise, the workouts that Bob did outside the gym seemed far more interesting and sustainable, in a real world setting, than Jillian's workout which seem kinda boring and looked like she did not know what to do.

  1. I still can't get over the fact that Tara has a crush on Blaine, and blamed that as part of the reason why she needed a break. Hello Tara, he's married with kids!

  2. That's my biggest grip with the Biggest Loser, I kind of wish they switched up the trainers. Bob is not my favorite trainer. Jillian is fine, but that may be female attractiveness blinding my ability to properly evaluate her training skills.
