I really, really hate not knowing the ending! I kept watching the time and at first thought that they managed to get to the seventy-seven pounds and there would be no elimination but when we got to three minutes left I just knew it wasn't happening. Poop! Oh and that was way too much pressure to put on that boy! It wouldn't be his fault, it really wouldn't be on anyone since people lose differently. Even if someone is losing only 3-4 pounds a week that's 12 to 16 pounds a month. That's a great number for the average person. Plus that boy-David? has had very big losses over the past few weeks. His body is going to take a break and it will not be his fault. Darn, I hate that he is looking like it all comes down to him. Plus that was such a nice thing to do, give away his groceries to the mother. Nice kid. I hope he and his father last to the end. But he will be considered a threat by the rest of the group trying to win the money.

Next week and Julian is getting yelled at? hmmmmmm, I thought everyone loved Julian. This season has been hard on the trainers with the switch in teams and now the contestants are attacking their trainer? It going to be interesting to see that scene. I wonder if Julian will want to return next season. She left once already.

I too was annoyed. I recorded it and first thought my DVR didn't get the end. I too was oh crap. We don't get to see the previews so tell me what you saw.

I think Bob's old team will stick together. Brown should be safe for a while. WOW what a team. Both are just wonderful human beings. Dad should be so proud.

As for the 77 pounds a part of me hopes it is ok and anothe hopes they don't. I am not huge fans of the old green or yellow teams and hope 1 from each side goes home. If they make it I wonder if there will be a double elimination later on?

I've seen the preview several times of Soriano(spelling) and the rest of the team sitting at a table and him yelling at Julian that he waited all session for her to come work with him and she never did. She worked with everyone else and not him. you see her looking upset and brushing back her hair the way she does. this on top of how she treated Laura last week is interesting. I'm not a big fan of Julian's constant probing into the psychological aspects of over eating and I really felt strongly that bringing on her mother a few seasons ago to talk with her team was not right. Perhaps it was just the way they presented it but it was Hi, here's my mother, the psychologist and who wants to go first.

Anyway it looks like at least Soriano has feelings of neglect. The voice over says One Team turns on its trainer.

I was trying to figure out who Soriano was grin lmfao I thought it was a last name and did not want to look dumb. lmfao Then I reread what you wrote and realized you had the same kind of brain fart I usually do with names. lmfao You meant Sione. I too can never remember names that is why I usually say brown team or blue team lmfao

REmembering names makes my head hurt.

Michael (son of the father/son brown team) is such a sweetheart! The poor kid has had so much pressure already trying to keep him and his father in The Game and now they are trying to put this whole 77 pound deal on his shoulders. There is no way anyone has the right to blame him. There were a few people who didn't lose at least 7, and even at that there should be no blame. I just really hope that somehow if they both have to eliminate someone, Jillian's team does not send Michael home "for not loosing enough to make 77+ pounds."

When Michael was giving away his grocerys it brought up some tears. It was so heartfelt and real. You could tell how proud Ron was when he found out. smile

Both Michael and his dad have supported each other. Remember how in the beginning the dad begged the team not to send his son home because his son needed to be there. That was heart wrenching. Now the son supports keeping his father there by losing all the weight he can. That is such a fantastic father/son relationship to see. I do wonder how the mother fits in and where.
