**** 3/29/11 show discussion 888 Spoilers

If Rulon does not address his late night food binges, he will eventually gain all the weight back. I did find it rather interesting that one of the above posters thought it hypocritical of Rulon, who so harshly condemns any of the others for not fully committing to this program and yet we see video evidence that he cannot. That is gonna bite him in the ass big time and Jillian has a big bite as well as bark.

My guess is that they just weren't doing it. I sure would have loved to see them lose a lot, so we could get rid of the myth that the trainers have everything to do with their success.

Price for food was $ 300.00.
Gym membership was $ 300.00
With the left-over $ 400.00 they could have gotten two days of training from Brett. Or, if they wanted to get the BL food at $ 500.00, they could have had one day of Brett @ $ 200.00. Would it have made a difference? Maybe yes, maybe no. Clearly the massages, the phone calls and the dinner out weren't helpful, however.

It annoyed me end when Courtney spoke up at Vance's weigh-in and told him about how she had lost 112 pounds at home. It's like she wants to be constantly lauded. Don't get me wrong - she has done very well & should be proud of herself. But she doesn't need to be the center of attention at all times.

I sort-of expected Kaylee to speak up and offer her spot to one member of the white team. I'm sure there are rules against it, but I thought she may offer anyway...

If I were them -

I would have picked:
BL Food $500
Trainer for 2 days $100
2 massages $100

Just watching the tape now. Wow, Vance's mom lost a lot more than he did. Vance looks like he'd be really cute. I think Courtney thought so, too. :)

Moses, Austin and Irene have both lost 33%, and if you round up so had Jen and Olivia. Ken had lost 32%, Rulon, Hannah and Jay 31%, Courtney 28%, and Kaylee 27%.
The current crew really are close together.
Jenn has now lost 47%, but if I heard right she hopes to lose 30 more lbs....that would put her at 57.5% lost and 118 lbs., which, at 5'8" is really over doing it.

5'9"

On the old insurance charts 5'8" weights in at 140 and 5'9" weights in at 145. If Jen loses 30 more pounds she will be 143 which would put her at a normal weight for her height.

It said at the end that she had lost 130 so far and hoped to lose 30 more by the end...or at least that's what I thought they said. I've taped over it now so can't check. So that would make 160 lost altogether. She started at 278 I thought, so 278 minus 160 is 118.
Maybe I misheard.
And, tbamom, yeah, at 6'8" I think I'd make it onto the charts as well! :)

Jen had lost 91 lbs at the ranch. At home she said she had lost a total of 105lbs and hopes to lose 30 more.

So 278 - 105 = 173 - 30 = 143.
