NO DIVING

November 28, 09:24 AM

The Extra-Long Lasting Challenge had a tiny over-bite. Nicole took on-going teasing about chipping her two front teeth by diving into the shallow end of the pool with a great sense of humor. In fact her jokes were just as good if not better than everyone else on the crews. Have I mentioned that Nicole does a hilarious impression of me? Well, I should clarify that she does an impression of everyone on set, the crew and other competitors. So I am just one of many… and she’s really good, and very funny. So, even though she’s totally making fun of you, you’re totally laughing right along with everyone else.


I found a fellow Harry Potter fan in Hollie. We shot that challenge right when book 7 was released, so I snuck a copy in to Hollie. After that it was impossible for the production team to get us to be quiet because we were whispering back and forth for days about the characters and the story. And what you may not know, is being on a reality show is exhausting – All the players are up and working out with their trainers early, all day every day. So, it took Hollie forever to get through HP, and I was seriously dying for her to have time to read so we could talk about it. As you all know who’ve read it – there is just SO MUCH to discuss… but that is for a different blog. Lol.


Anyway, I was sad to say goodbye to B this week. And the red team. It was a really hard time for Kim as well as B. He has done an amazing job on campus and it was so sweet to hear him talk about how being a part of BL has changed his life.

What a difference in B, he did an amazing job and good luck on his music career...But please tell me why the hosts must wear low cut tops and are in need of a trainer too. Youre a pretty girl but its not about you its about the losers you looked so much better in just a long sleeve T with a round neck, and sorry but you do look like you need a little weight loss too.

jv (04:46 PM)

You look GREAT. And, as an avid Day's fan...I have watched you for years. To see you branching out in your career, well, you are just a STAR! You go girl!!! I want to hear your music...where can I find it? Take care and be strong.

jv, you've got to be kidding. Yes, the constant cleavage is a little rediculous but Ali does not need to lose weight. please.

bl fan (05:36 PM)

your awesome and im a fan of dool and biggest loser and a harry potter fan keep up the good work your so great

lesley (06:14 PM)

Ok...I complain about the Day's stuff on this website all the time...but I dont think you're overweight either Allison. I do think this is the week to bring up Kim. I think that Kim is an amazing trainer, but I don't think that she's right for this show. I mean all of her contestants got kicked off...and B was in the bottom a couple of times. I think they should replace Kim with another trainer and try that for awhile. Jillian has already hinted that she's on next season's Biggest Loser...I am super excited. I think that Kim is a great person, but obviously isn't getting results. Wouldn't she get fired for that in any other job?

Ali,
I would like to see the show give some tips to people with physical limits. The people so far have been fairly healthy except for their weight. Due to leg injuries it is hard to run, jump and even swim. It would be great if the show could address these problems also. Thanks

Dreamer (03:09 PM)

Ali, great to hear B got to say goodbye to kim and eveyone sorry some people on here are being mean to you Ali I think you look great, have an nice day.

I agree with Neil in the way contestants are being voted off this season.The Biggest Loser is always the biggest threat and one team should not team up like a click to get another team voted off. I believe that what goes around comes around and that when only the black team is left...then what...what will be then the members will then turn against each other and then vote each other off. Neil and the only other guy left are playing the game fairly and correctly...the other girls are not and should be voted off ASAP! I view the Biggest loser no longer as a losing the most weight anymore but who can back stab the most each week show...losing the whole meaning of why the contestants are there...to lose weight and learn to have a healthier lifestyle.

Kimberly Chan (08:52 AM)

My husband and I love watching BL. I love it so much I'm missing House and that is my favorite show. Right now I'm having to tape it LOL.

I was really sad when B left but he looks great, actually everyone does.

As for Nicole what was she thinking diving into that pool without checking the signs. Honestly, I was scared that something worse happened to her. The mother came out in me and I was like OMG she could have broken her neck!! Thought I was laughing really hard when Bob made his comment, I was so glad she was okay.

Ali,
I have been a fan of Days since like grade school! I think that you are a much better host than the previous one, and I also enjoyed your Fear Factor episode. I think that anyone who says you need to lose weight is an absolute idiot. I would give my left leg to look like you (well, maybe only a toe). Anyway, I enjoy watching the Biggest Loser, even though it is sad to see people get voted off. I wish I had the motivation to do what they are doing! Ya know, B really reminds me of Cuba Gooding Jr. I thought that the first time I seen him on the show. He looks really great and I wish him and his family all the best.

Brenda (06:48 PM)

To all of you that think that Ali is showing too much cleavage, you must be in envy of her. She looks absolutly great in everything that she wears and I'm a firmn beleiver in if you got it, flaunt it. Ali does not need to lose weight, I think she looks fab and I'm sure there are plenty of people out there who would agree with me. Everybody needs to qiut hatin' on other people, especially if you don't know anything about their personal lives. Where is everybodies Christmas spirit? Love ya Ali, Jessica Ridenour Pioneer, TN

Ali, you are a FABULOUS person - don't pay ANY heed to any negative talk by anyone ... you are great as you are, always have been since day one on Days 14, almost 15 years ago. We love Ali as she is!

And you look fabulous in EVERY outfit that BL provides you. :)

Keep up the great work.

I am a huge fan of yours Ali, I have been watching Days for sooo many years it has been great to see you grow into this wonderful women and person, and I wanted to say to everyone who has been negitive on the blog, that I think you look great and I know how you struggled to get off the weight that you had to lose after having Ben so you know what it feels like to lose the weight. So these people have nothing to say if they have never been in that situation. I am glad you are hosting this season of BL since you were in the spot light of Days and had to lose weight for the show, you are a great person who would understand how important it is to lose the weight not only for the show but for yourself. I think you are a positive person and are a great person. I am glad to hear that you are able to do things with the peeps on the show and be able to make them laugh since you have a great personality. I was sad to see B leave the show, but I think he is doing great all the peeps that have left the show are doing great Keep up the good work. I hope you are able to come back and host again on another show if you are able to find the time between the two characters you play on Days. By the way loved that the Days cast was able to have time to talk to the peeps on BL I thought was a great gesture. And Hope was wonderful also for giving all the women the necklace with an inspiration on them. Keep wearing the babydoll shirts it looks good on you and don't let anyone tell you different.

Tell everyone on Days HOLA from INDY. Exspecially SEAN and MAX.......

I will really miss B and the red team, but I saw B on the Today Show he looks awesome. The before and after pictures were striking & you can see the difference. B God Bless you! Ali Have a Merry Christmas! You are doing a super duper job on "DAYS" I love the way your daughter of the twins is named Alice & you guys put it short for "ALI"
Best Wishes

Ali, I have to admit I have been watching the show since the start and loved our beloved host Ms. Rae. She made the show taking the weight loss with a tongue and cheek kinda style. I was very against the thought of you hosting the show. I have to admit I was a former Days fan so I watched you as a teen turn from cute little girl to angry little sister stealing day time character. With that said it was hard to take you for honest dealing host of a truly incredible show. I am a former overweight guy who had a hard time getting motivated at the gym, since biggest loser I have worked out with the show and raced home from the gym to see the show. I have compared weight loss and motivation tactics via television with the trainers. But I have to say I have come to LOVE you Ali for your heart felt conversations and statements, they have proven to me what an asset you are to the biggest loser. Each contestant states how touched you are when they leave and how you remember each contestant that means alot. I thank you for taking the challenge to host this show when you knew you would be exposing yourself to people who had no clue who you are, but you still put yourself out there. This show is so important to people struggling with weight that it can be done and with dedication and determination you can lose weight and live a healthy life. Ali I wish you luck on your show on daytime but I think your biggest award with be knowing how you helped change lives and touched lives hosting the biggest loser.

Hi Ali

Are you in on the fat loss scam the show is portraying to the public? The participants are being dehydrated to show massive weight loss in short periods of time. There is no way the 168lb girl lost 8 lbs of fat in a week. That is 28,000 calories of fat loss. If the average person burns 100 calories walking or running a mile you will see how impossible a task it is. since our body mass is mostly composed of water then it makes sense to show the most weight loss to rid the body of its fluids. Shame shame. If you don't know what is going on then you do now.

Wow JV that was rude. Ali you look amazing! Thanks for hosting this show. I feel like you connect with the people on campus and I can tell by reading your blogs. I have a weight problem, but this show inspires me and I hope I can lose the weight that needs to come off. I love this show and can't wait to see Season 5!!!!

Kristine (12:44 AM)

I am really disappointed with the outcome of this years biggest loser. I believe that there are 2 people on the black team that don't deserve to be in the finals... they were bailed out more than once by their own teammates, while the people that were really working their butts off got sent home. I think that if i am going to watch this show next year NBC will need to make the voting part of the show more fair. maybe you can have America Make the votes. America would vote for the person that they think are working the hardest not people that are wearing a different color.

David Hays (04:43 PM)

K Ali I think we should have a biggest loser Canadian. I would be there for that!! That would be awesome. Also I just want to say I love Sami and you do a great job keep up the good work.

Dawn (12:03 PM)
