BDW Biggest Loser: Season V ~ Official Thread ~ FINAL Results Posted

You're at the half-way mark, so there's time to kick your butts into gear. For those of you that are frustrated - DON'T GIVE UP! For those of you watching the "real" Biggest Loser on TV, do you know Janelle? She was the woman that Bob just flipped out on for doing more talking than anything else. Not only was she all talk ("I'm trying" or "I will" or "I am giving my all" etc.) but she had an excuse for everything. DO NOT be her!

I was so annoyed with her. Every time I think of an excuse to skip an exercise or to eat something crappy, I am going to think of her - and how much I don't want to be like her!

Good point Ann. She was a real pain in my opinion.

Marianna - I hope everything works out.

Hang in there ladies. Every little bit counts!

Where is everyone today?!

i'm here (just sent you my weigh-in, ann)!

i am pleased to report that i have *finally* crossed the 25 lbs lost mark!

(and it only took me 3 seasons of biggest loser, LOL!)

keep at it ladies! i don't want to win this thing by default because everyone else dropped out!

I just sent mine. YAY Lisa!!!! Good job!

I didn't gain or lose, again!!! Although I did weigh myself on Sunday and I was down 4.5 lbs, but we were out late last night doing a tasting for our signature drink, so I blame the no change on late night drinking!

thanks ladies! like i said though, i have been trying to lose since BDW biggest loser season 3, and we're halfway through season 5! slow and steady wins the race? i hope so! i just keep losing the same 5-10 pounds over and over again ... hopefully this time it just stays off, 'cause i have plenty more to lose just even to be healthy.

BL3 (july 16 - september 10): 10.3 lbs lost

BL4 (september 24 - november 19): 11.5 lbs lost

BL5 (january 7 - present): 11.4 lbs lost ... so far

see, if i had kept that weight off in-between seasons, i'd be down 33.2 lbs right now! i could kick myself! definitely doing the best this season ... maybe it's because now the wedding is rapidly approaching?

congrats kristie on hitting a milestone yourself! the milestones do somehow help re-motivate, don't they? heck, i'm even gonna go to the gym tonight!

Congrats Lisa and Kristy! That is awesome news. I agree with your statement Lisa....slow and steady. The weight wasn't gained overnight, that is for sure. Hope everyone had a good weigh-in.

Ugh, I'm up 4.4 lb since we started. I need to find some serious motivation. How many weeks do we have left? 5?

Oh boy! I almost forgot to weigh in for the second week in a row!

Hey Ann, would it be possible to post all of our weight loss %s to date? I think it would be good motivation to see where we are in the ranks.... definitely don't want to be coming in last!

Kelly-- this slush/ice/warm/snow roller coaster we've been having is enough to make me want to stay in bed. I've been pretty demotivated lately too. Is demotivated a word? I don't know. This month has ubersucked. So glad it's almost over.

Good luck, ladies.
