Season 13 - No Excuses - Spoilers and Speculations

[Allie]

I just hate this vanity sizing. Lets face it we are a fat nation. Own it, don't lie about it. If you don't like it do something about it but don't change the size labels that's just lying to your customer and the customers are lying to themselves.

I have noticed the more expensive the clothes the more "generous" the sizing.

[Shoepie]

The label I was looking at must have been an error, then. I know UK sizes are smaller than US.

The thing is, Kim probably can wear a size 6 dress. I'm the same height as her and I do weigh less, but I'm wearing size 4 pants right now, which is laughable considering when I was 25 lbs lighter 14 years ago, I regularly wore a 6. I have one pair of those old 6's left in my spare closet and they are too tight to be decent (unless I want to get my pic on The People of Wal-Mart).

HA! @ Wal-Mart comment. My sizes are all over the road map too. My jeans range from 6 to 12. The 12s are from Old Navy (Rockstar jeans). The cashier asked me how I liked them (I bought 4 of them) and I told her they were the most comfortable jeans ever. She won't buy them because you have to go up several sizes. She doesnt want to see the larger number in the tag. I said, of for god sakes cut the tag off, give them a try! I have t shirts that range from Medium to XL!

I generally don't buy clothes that are so high in price that I would be a 4 but I know they are out there. I really dont care other than it makes shopping online very difficult. Their sizing charts are way off on most sites, as well. I took my measurements and it told me I needed a large. I returned it for a small!

Back on topic, for a moment. I think they will gloss over the walk out/ stand off we heard about earlier. There has to be some explanation as to why Mark quit but it will appear to be logical or altruistic. Like giving his place to someone else because he was close to goal.

I think they will have to show the walk out, it has been on the internet way to much to gloss over. Personally I think they should end this season and start over.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh WOW! This sounds so boring!

I only saw the first burst of flurry from TMZ, I think. I will go google again. I don't know too much other than Mark walked off and others threatened to do so.

[Shoepie]

There isn't anything about the walkout except the scant info posted in Feb.

[captain]

Go to the Biggest Loser web site on NBC. If you read the forums it is discussed there.

[Bearcata]

When the heck is this walkout happening? It won't be next week though as it is still the White House episode and I can't see anyone ruining that. It won't happened until after that weight in and elimination, so the soonest will be two weeks from now.

[LrcLinda]

Was that all just a false rumor, about a couple of contestants who got mad and walked off the ranch? I've been waiting for this to happen on the show. I was looking forward to Conda being one of the ones who left!!!

Does anyone have any idea about whether this really happened or was it just a rumor?
