spoilers for tonights show (5/10)

[mommyof2poodles]

Why is there so much dislike for Olivia and Hannah? I don't watch enough of the show (liberal FF) to have seen what they did to turn so many off.

I was wondering the same thing and I don't FF at all. I like them! I like all 4 of the final folks, but Jay is my least favorite. I would like to see a woman win...it has been a long time.

Yes. Ger Jay out. Men have dominated this show. I dont care how much hate is spewing for the sisters, I am sick of men wining.

[alizarules]

Hannah and Olivia as well as Irene, "got by" because: a) they lost the weight & b) because of all the self sacrificing "grown-ups."

I'd be happy if any of them including Jay won. They all lost a lot of weight PERIOD.

Didnt Hannah claim to have gotten enough from the show and she wanted to be voted off? She was on the 3 person team - It was the week that the Dairy Queen Girl went home - oh and Alison went nuts saying no one is forcing anyone to be here... but she wanted to go by being voted off, not quit.

which brings me to the thought I still dont understand - why didnt Roloun leave the same way - they could've just eaten or drank lots of water, lose the weigh in and get voted off by telling the group "its their time to go"

its been a friendlier season in that respect.

and I remember a year that based on their total weight loss current weight + body size what loss you could see on the finale - and because of the time involved between going home and the finale, there was little realistic way a woman could win - the year a woman one was unique in there was just z 2 or 3 week lag time between leaving the ranch and the finale...

Kaylee wanted to go home, not Hannah.

As far as we know, Rulon was asked to leave. He broke some rule. They allowed him to quit rather than exposing what he did. We can assume is was serious.

His 10 pound loss that final week may have alterted them to something fishy. A blood test could have shown he used a diaturetic or appetite suppresant that he was able to get in New Zealand when they were not on lock down at the ranch. I am guessing. There is nothing out there that supports my theory. And there is nothing that refutes it either.

Internet detective work at it's finest! In all seriousness though, I think you are closer to the truth than the whole unauthorized cell-phone use speculation. He's on a show about weight loss where there is a cash prize involved. I think he did something that gave him an unfair advantage in the numbers game. No idea what it could have been, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was like you guessed.
