BIGGEST LOSER, who should win?

Sleepless in Las Vegas... That's me tonight  an old problem of too many thoughts in my head....

Anyhow...Since I can't sleep and I've gotta do something, thought I would start a thread about Biggest Loser..

Anyone else watching that show? Does anyone LIKE Mark or does he get on your nerves as much as mine? And who thought that Kelly would make it to the end? Not me!

SO who do YOU want to win??

My vote is for Alley!!

my husband and i love this show - his vote is hopefully for roger if he stays in and u know we never thought kelly would make it but now that she has i actually support her in her weightloss- she has lost alot and was such a big woman that its awesome! I vote for kelly!

i just get mad how they can lose 15 pounds in a week and all uf us only lose 2- i know i dont workout for 4-5 hrs every day but they seem to set unrealistic goals for alot of peep! although i still love the show!!

I love this show....i am there every Tuesday night shouting, hollering and applauding all of there accomplishments!

I agree Mark can be a little annoying at times, but he has accomplished a lot. As they all have. But i love my gals Ali & Kelly.....woohoo....they are kicking butt and i am loving it. I think the girls have a better chance if unfortunately Roger goes. Sorry, but he could be the Biggest Loser and we want a girl to win this one.

I am also amazed that Kelly is still there.....i am so proud of her....what a lady, what a class act! She has more courage and inner strength then i thought she did. But ultimately Ali is the Biggest Loser, she has come a long way baby. I relate to her more on a personal level. And she looks awesome.

Go ladies go.....Ali is my choice for the winner!

Have a great sunshine day and keep kicking butt my fellow Calorie Count buddies!

i have watched every weeksince the beginning season this has been one of the best . i put my vote in for kelly also. last nights show was crazy !just imagine losing those amounts of weight after all they have lost so far awesome!

LOVE THE SHOW! I'm hoping Roger stays..... I would not have pegged Kelly as a finalist- it is awesome though, she really deserves it!!! Ali looks great, but almost getting on the too skinny side :)

Anyways, they all deserve mega props!

(I agree with Shauna that it isn't fair that they can lose 15 in a week- I'm struggling to lose one at this point )

This is the 1st season of this show that I have watched and at first I really liked it.  I told myself that they lost 15-10 pounds in a week because they had a lot to lose. Now I find the show almost too depressing to watch.  The girl Ali is taller than me (5'5) and only weights 135! She is getting to my goal faster than me and she had about 100 pounds more than me to lose! WTF? I try so hard and maybe lose 1 pound per week if I am lucky... the last few weeks I have not been so lucky :(  This week she loses 11 pounds when she was already at 146 or something like that... Huh?? Did she have 11 to lose??  Should you lose 11 pounds in a week if you are already at a healthy weight for your height?  Why do I only lose .5 to one pounds... ugggg.  If she can lose 11 pounds then I should be able to lose much more than I am.  Ali start weight = 234 and current weight = 135!!!  My start weight was 143 and I am only at 139ish... *Crying* What the hell. I have decided I hate this show because it sets up unrealistic expectations for people in the real world!! Ps. I would still like Kelly to win because she struggles with losing weight like the rest of us and is succeeding...she was the fat kid too :P

Don't be discouraged.  I am sure if all we had to do all day is work with a personal trainer and get advice and help with meals, we could lose that much in a week too.  Plus, no one is going to give me 250 g's at the end of it all too - that is a huge motivator.  1-2 pounds a week of weight loss is great - and statistics say that if you lose weight that way, you are more likely to keep it off.

As far as who wins, I think they all have already won.  But I do think Alli is my favorite

At this point I completely support Kelly. No one thought she woulda made it this far at the beginning, I am super proud of her. Ali is neurotic. I don't know what to make of the whole Ali-Mark "bonding", who knows? Mark is a crybaby.

My vote is for the pink team.. I think that is Ali is the best motivation ever.. To get voted off with her mother, and go on with out the show and get back on the ranch is alot of hard work.. She did it.. ALL the teams did it.. That Husband, and wife team, the white team.. I really didn't see it in him.. He has the weight to lose, but he just didn't want to lose the weight.. KELLY. OMG... I really love her drive.. She came their with her ex husband, and he really did it for the hidden love for her.. BUT! He gave up somewhere down the road when he went home for a week. I've been watching the show, and I really do think a woman should bring that cash home.. Not only that.. I just feel that she's doing it for herself.. That's how I feel.. I feel Ail should when, because she didn't have the ranch or all those help aids in front of her.. She had to take what little she had and run for the money.. My vote is for Ali.. Mark.. I think he should lose, and I have my reasons.... I feel he should lose because... I'm just sick of the men winning. PERIOD...

I think Mark is pretty annoying but he does deserve to win... I'm rooting for Ally though. She looks amazing.

I don't understand how this final will work though. Mark and Ally are pretty much at an ideal weight right now and the finale isn't for a while so they get sent home to see if they can continue losing weight on their own, right? I hope neither of them loses too much more!

Also, why don't these people have excess skin?! They've lost 100 lbs in 4 months! And how in the world did they manage to lose 11-15 each last night? Something is up with that...

I don't understand it either.. After my mother lost 100+ pounds from the gastic by pass in 2003 she had to get a tummy tuck... Due to rashes from the over hanging skin.. My mother also went to have her legs done, but she doesn't have enough loose skin there to even have it done. Shes always working out her legs, and has done that since she got the okay from her doctor to train. So I really think working the muscles and doing a lot of cardio really helps with that a lot.. And a good trainer. But you can really see the skin on that other guy... The football trainer.. I forgot his name.. And Ali is young.. She can snap back.. I think Ali should get it because, she was voted off. I'm sure she can still do it on her own when she goes home.. Kelly has put up one hell of a fight.. I don't think she's going to give up either.

I love Kelly! I don't think she'll actually win... I think Ali will unless Roger gets voted in, but Kelly would get my vote!

I think they all deserve to win, but I, too, would love to see a girl win. I don't care which one (but I seem to be leaning more toward Kelly!)

honestly i think they do have excess skin but i think that they have less than say you or i would when losing 100ish lbs because theyre working out so damn much and yes, theyre dieting but i have a feeling theyre eating so freaking healthy that they found this balance (Which please I would love to find!!).

I think they all had the perfect week- ate perfectly- aka no sugar, no salt etc, worked out like fiends and worked out differently- they didnt have their trainers remember?

I am happy with any of them winning. Mark and Ali are at their ideal/almost ideal weights but think about it theyve basically lost 40% of their body weight In fact Mark went from 285-->169 last night which is 40.35%. Ali started at about 235 and lost 99 which is 134 for her weight now or 42% lost. I think Kelly started at about 270 because I remember her asking if she was the largest... Shes lost 93 lbs or about 34% but in theory Kelly should weigh say 145. If she loses that weight she will lose 46.65%. Rogers weight Im not familiar with but he's lost 144 lbs which is 40% of his weight to date which means he started at 360. If this is true and we say he can lose and weigh 190 at the finale he will lose over 47%. Anyways just my math-- I could be wrong.

This show is great - but most of us to not have the luxury (time or incentive) to be excercising 5-8 hours a day. Which is what is needed to pull down those numbers.

Mark and Alli will be successful  no matter what. They are highly driven individuals. They are already in great shape - both with just a few target areas to work on.  Mark has the food/support from winning the challenge that will help him. I would not vote for him just because of this.

Kelly is my hope to win. She has had to push through so many challenges. She has been a silent underdog in my opinion. I would love to see her go home and come back a star!

Hi, Since day one i have been voting for the underdog..Kelly..i like all of the others but my heart bleeds for Kelly, she NEEDS THIS VICTORY....she has stuggled through this whole adventure...emotionally, mentally, and certainly physically....so my prayers are with Kelly she has such a kind heart....and that's one thing i look at in a person.....a kind heart!!...GO KELLY GO....one more week and well al know....Nancy

I love the biggest loser!! I have watched every season. I'm hoping Ali wins because she dug in and did most of hers at home. If she doesn't win I hope it's Kelly. I'm with yall that Mark gets on my nerves too. They've all worked hard though and deserve it.

Hi everyone wanted to say, please..please don't get discouraged you have to remember that they:

1- Have a trainer

2- they work out several hours everyday

3-they have people there advising them everyday on what to eat and not to eat.

4-they have FULL TIME SUPPORT

5-they are surrounded with insentive!

6-$250,000.00 is a pretty good reason too!!

Also you have to also remember that a good % of those people put the weight right back on, because unlike us they took it off to fast....we are doing it sensibly...right....slow and easy then it won't come back....also we are learning all about nutrition as well from here.

I bought those biggest loser books and am online at that site, and outside of a few healthy choices and advice, there is no clear cut way to drop the weight...Except diet, watch the sodium(water rentention), fat, sugars etc....i went in to different nets and wrote out just how exactly manys carbs, fat, protein, sodium, sugar, fiber, and cholesterol i SHOULD be getting everyday.

This is what i do now I am voting for as i said Kelly....because she has really really struggled not that they all didn't work hard..but she worked hard and didn't see the same results....therefore my heart bleeds for her and i hope she wins.

Mark my he is such a cry baby, if this is what he is like in the outside world no wonder he gained al that weight, lets hope his older brother keeps him going, but hey girls gotta love the muscles he's getting. 

I myself am also lifting dumbbells and have noticed more tone and less hanging from the triceps now....so persiverence does pay off and riding my stationary, soon to be outside bike weather permitting!!.

As for Ali she looks great but i just don't want her to win...enough said next week we'll know....any bets...hahaha.....lol....if it comes down to a challenge of strength it'll be the football player Roger...if it's endurance could be Ali....what do you all think???????????....bye for now gang...Nancy

I want Ali to win.  :o)

I for some reason feel "bonded" to her. Weird but I can really relate with her situation.

That is funny sassy-pants cuz when this started i felt bondy to Brittany...but now shes gone so now it's Kelly.....i just think it's great in any case...

i wonder how long before the next biggest loser wil air on tv....does anyone know???????????
