And make no mistake, it is a business. I'm actually going to back you up here! I mean, we can all sit there and say how mad we are at ABC, and "how dare they" - but guess what, it IS a business, and their job is to get us to talk about and watch the show. Well, they did their job! They don't care that we're mad, hell, they're probably thrilled! It just means we will be glued to our TVs tomorrow. Sure, there are real feelings and real emotions involved in this show. And a lot of the characters (for lack of a better word) probably go ito this with good intentions. But in the end, it's a TV show, a "drama" and a business like Susan said - it doesn't exist to help people find true love it's around to entertain us! And that it does! Oh, and I wouldn't be surprised if Melissa was the next bachelorette - if she'll do it. Most people have forgotten about poor Jillian by now!

I will look into this right now.

we had 4 flower girls and no ring bearers (our families don't produce boys, i guess!) - so the 2 oldest girls had the rings.

I will bring this to Tammy's attention, it's not a bad idea!

congratulations on winning - how awesome!

I was looking at photos from back when she was still in the hospital, and it doesn't seem like that long ago. And she looks soooo tiny!

you're very welcome! i might actually participate in the next one. not to win the pot, but just for the motivation and to track progress. i've put on a few pounds this winter since i have been less active. i had lost all of my pregnancy weight, but then put a few back on after i stopped going for walks as often. it's hard to get out and about when it's 0 degrees out there!

nice job, kelly!

I just hope this doesn't cause anyone to give up ... I like your attitude, Kelly ... make someone else take that last spot!

I think in 5 seasons of the Biggest Loser, this is my first calculation mistake! lol But When we added the extra weeks to the season, I hadn't changed my formula that calculates the TOTAL pounds lost and the % to include those extra weeks. So, I have updated the original post in this thread above to have the correct results. SO SORRY! And thanks to Shannon for pointing out my mistake!

Ok, how about this ... I could add a poll to this thread to find out if I should post the overall % loss for everyone. I will give it until tomorrow afternoon or something - unless we want to give it through early next week to give everyone a chance to vote. I could also post it in a new thread, and if you don't want to know you just don't open that thread! Or I could PM to everyone that DOES want to know. Hmmm, would that be best?

There are 5 more weigh-ins after this week! Quote: Originally Posted by Sapphire723 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! I've been asked this before, and I totally can if the whole group agrees. Last time it came up most people thought it would actually be worse for them to know where they stand. Like if they weren't towards the top, they might give up. Ya know? But honestly, it's 100% up to you guys - so I'd say just discuss amongst yourselves, and just let me know!

Oooohhhh just 2 more days!

Where is everyone today?!
