Did Dane fake his marathon?

Did Dane face his marathon?

That is a really smart idea.

Okay so is there REALLY a way to get your body back after having a baby? I cannot believe how my body has changed and it is sooo frustrating! The skin on my stomach is so loose now and has the most horrible stretch marks...plus, having a nursing 6 month old makes it really difficult to get any workout in and seriously focus on loosing weight. Any suggestions?

I have the best idea for a show. It would be for those wanting to get ripped and as the finale they compete in a beginners body builiding competition and no one knows they are part of it. The winner of the body building competition wins!

Jillian, you really need to see your twin that live in Houston! She's a hard core exercise-aholic! She's even called Jillian Jr. at work! She thinks she can take you on any day! lol

Jillian,

How involved are you in your website?? How much interaction is there with you? Like, say, if we had specific questions for you - do you answer them or does someone else?

I would like to see a show for those who have 10-30 pounds left to lose and are having trouble. Those that REALLY want to cut and tone up their bodies.

Also, I recently purchased a bowflex and am lost. Any suggesions?

On one of the shows, there was a recipe using pink lentals. Is there anyway I can get that recipe? It had said to go to nbc.com to get the recipe but wasn't there. Can anyone help? I also wanted to say that I think Jillian and Bob are great trainers.

Did Jillian ever apologize to Allison for cursing and disrespecting her during this years episode? I sure hope so.

Hi
I live in Canada and maybe one day you will do something here, I am striggling with stopping smoking, and when I go to the gym I cant smoke after, I would love to see you train people who want to give up the smoking and work out and get really heathy, believe me I would be the first in line, it all go together in my opinion, so how about it, what a show it would be.

Thanks for letting me have my say
Rita

jillian, i would like to meet you, cause you are a cool trainer and if i could have a trainer i would pick you, because you are a cool trainer and i would be proud to wear the black shirt to represent you.

To Jillian,
I have been using "all your cds" Still struggling, but thanks for making them. I just wish there wasnt so much jumping involved. I have weak ankles and knees.

How does one stay focused ?? I had lost nearly 100 lbs then life hit me right between the eyes. I am facing the relosing over over 60 lbs ... and I just find it more difficult this time. HELP !! How can I get my focus back ?? I am sick of these UNwanted pounds !!

YOU both are an inspiration to me as well as my family!! We have not missed the show on this season!! Since the show started my husband and I joined the club, then we went further, and the gym for the whole family. We all lost a total of 45lbs! We eat healthier and exercise more. My trainer loves the show as well and tapes it when she cant watch it. She makes me do most of the things she sees on the show. So I feel right there with Bob on my shoulder and Jillian in my ear, to keep going! My favorite thought is to achieve in anything you must step out of your comfort zone. I have and I have seen results! Thank you for you inspiration to be healthier!!

My question is, What else can you eat and take vitamins to equal eating fish? Are family dont eat fish. It swims we dont eat it.
thank you.

i think mark is going to win this game

It would be great if Jillian and Bob found more time later to post responses to more of these comments. They are SO important to us who are struggling and not able to be on the Biggest Loser show.

Ali is so little now that it is VERY SHOCKING to see her lose HUGE numbers every week. 11 lbs in 1 week? Is that a healthy wieght loss per week for a 140 lbs woman?

Hey Bob,
You have the coolest shirts. Where did you get your shirt with the hummingbird on it?
Thanks.

Hey Bob,

you guys inspire me everyday thanks soooo much for all you do!i have lost 10 pds. so far i feel so much better. thanks again!!!

God Bless You hope to see you soon.

We want Roger to stay for the final 3!!!!

How do you stay so motivated in your workouts? I find myself losing focus and not pushing myself to a full workout. Any suggestions?
Love you guys...you both ROCK!! also, love the different T-shirts you guys wear!

What do you guy's think? Roger may have more weight to lose but Mark is still pulling bigger percentages? Who will give the girls the best chance?

How tall are the final four?
Does Ali have enough weight to lose in order to win?

Jillian: You mention therapy. I've been in therapy for about 5 years now for a mental illness, which has gotten much better. How do you suggest I bring to my therapist the issue with weight. I never know where to start, and how to explain it to her. Any tips?

I've been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and was on meds that caused me to gain weight.My doctor didn't want to help me change that and some other things so I'm changing doctors.Do you have any advice on what I can do to try and get my weight down? Love ya'll and the show!

Jullian how many reps should you do for any sets for your arms and legs and what are the best type of exercise to get rid of flabby parts? love your work please help me out Jullian your the best.

What is the best way to get started? I am having trouble.

How much time is really committed to working out each day?

Is'nt all the muscle mass that is gained weighing more than the fat that is burned off?

How tall is Ali? How tall is Kelly?
What are their ideal weights? do either of them have enough weight to lose in order to pull the percentage of wieght loss?

I wanted to thank you both for being an inspiration in changing my habits for the better. For the first time in my life I have control of my eating habits and I no longer look at the scale as an enemy. I do measure my success by my body fat composition. Do you ever think that there will be a Biggest Loser that will be measured by percent of body fat loss as opposed to just a percentage of their body weight?

Thanks for everyting...

My stupid computer booted me off before I finished my comment. PLEASE let us know if we vote for the person we want to be in the finale or the person we want voted off! This is not clear.

Question about drinking alcohol. Why does every diet say not to drink? I know there are alot of calories and all, but is it bad to have a few here and there? Do you two drink at all? Have a few to many on a few occasions? Thanks

Bob and Jillian, it has to be said both of you are great, i have watch you transform people body, mind, and spirit. what ever they pay you for doing this is not enough, you can tell by watching you that you really care about people. Keep up the great work. Go Rodger Go

How much more weight can Ali realistically lose?

Jillian,
Love the show! I've been a personal trainer for a couple years. What is the most accurate method to measure body fat? I know hydrostatic weighing is probably the best. Which is better: skinfold method or BIA?

thank you jillian you help me change my life

I had my second child 9 months ago and have lost 20 pounds. I am hoping to lose ten more. My problem is with my hips, what exercises can I do to rid my self of them?

Why did the networks not disclose Ali & Mark were taking diet pills?

I have a suggestion for a different kind of show: How about taking 12 weeks to make "average people" "ripped"? Wouldn't it be interesting to see people 10, 15, 25 lbs. overweight overcome that last goal and achieve their dream body. That's me.

Do you two stay on campus the whole time with the contestants?

Gastric Bypass- What are your thoughts on gastric bypass?

I have a bad shoulder and can not lift more then 10 lbs with my right arm, what workouts are the best for me?

i just had a baby and i feel really down about how i look. i haven't excerised in forever. what should i start out doing?

i am a a recent amputee and live life in a wheelchair due to my weight..presently 250....do you think they would ever consider doing a Biggest Losers Handicapable??? I would so love to learn how to eat right and lose weight from a wheelchair perspective and then be able to learn to use a prosthesis once the weight is off....... i just need help.

I love this show - Mark really ruined it this season - he is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO annoying. So arrogant and such a wimp always blubbering. He has a total mancrush on Bob - when they hugged and cried - "Get a room guys"

you guys are awesome YOU ROCK!!! what do you guys do for fun when your not working and also what do you guys do to maintain focus and straight headed
thanks

Jillian,

One year and 3 months ago I weighed around 220 to 225 pounds. A friend of families that I have known since I was about 7 years old put me into physical therapy for my ankle.

Over the past year and 4 months I have lost over 50 pounds. I now weigh 152 pounds.

Here is my question. I am so afraid of gaining the weight back that I lost. How do I keep from doing that?? I do go and work out 3 days a week. Two of the days I do water aerobics, and one day I do the weight machines. I also watch what I eat, and I try not to eat in between meals. I also watch how much I eat. I still eat the junk food, and because of the boys and sports are meals are not that healthy at times.

I am so very scared???? I just don't want the weight back on. I am somewhat limited with what I am able to do due to a second surgery that I had done on my ankle. I have only been off of my crutches completly for only one month. What do I do???? I don't know how I did it, but I did lose weight while I was on my crutches over the past 7 months!!!!! What advice are you able to give me.

Thanks,

Mary S.

I have had 3 major surgeries that have caused some sort of nerve damage in different areas of my body. My problem with losing weight is finding a workout that works both for me and with my problems. I really don't have enough to lose to be able to be on the show (I am 5'4" and 153lbs.) Too bad there couldn't be a show for people with limited disabilities that you could work with.

This is sortof off subject, but where is the blond traner from last season?
Also I was wondering how can I motivate myself to work out? I only weigh 118 lbs but I still want to stay healthy.

Hi I love you guys,
I have watch the show since day one.
I broke my back and the doctors tell me that that is as healed and I'm still in a
lot of pain I need to know what I can do as far as working out and not just walking on the treadmill.
I lost 75 lbs in a year and now that I can't work I don't want to put it back on.
Thanks you guys love you.

Hi Jillian,

I have a question on how to get 6 pack abs. Need help?

Bob & Jill,
Ihave been doing my "poor mans" weightloss program for the last 8 months. i started at 405lbs. am now at 315lbs, and am now at a plateau, any thoughts?

I need help! I’m 20 years old and weigh 290 lbs. I’ve always struggled with my weight and I’m sick and tired of it! I hate going shopping with my friends because they can all shop in the junior/young adult section so I just have to sit there and watch them try everything on. I want to ENJOY shopping, not dread it. I want to be healthy and also a healthy “skinny.” I want to be able to look good and feel good about myself. I’ve never had a date and I know part of it is because I’m overweight. I need to change and I need to change now! Can you help?

HI Bob and Jillian. I am 55 and have been on permanant disablity for over 3 years now with copd. I have gained over 50 lbs and really need to get it off. I only eat one meal a day, but cannot do exercise.. Help.. Thanks. I love your show..

What are your thoughts on the new meal plans.

How do I start running on a treadmill at 320 lbs????? I can't understand how they are physically capable!!! Do I walk a little then run a little and just keep repeating????

I have never been overweight but I am still INSANELY inspired by the show and the contestants. Did you guys ever think you and this show would have this kind of effect on people?

where should you keep your heart rate to burn the most fat the fastest

Hello
Jillian,
I love your workouts. You are awesome. What is the best workout for outside? What are the weight limits for contestants on the Biggest Loser?

I have a very stressful job that takes away 10 hours or more of my mind, body, and energy every day. It's hard to find the energy to workout when I have already been drained emotionally and physically. How can I feel the motivation to work out when I get home from such a long day?

HI Bob and Jillian. I am 55 and have been on permanant disablity for over 3 years now with copd. I have gained over 50 lbs and really need to get it off. I only eat one meal a day, but cannot do exercise.. Help.. Thanks. I love your show..

Jillian and Bob, if it is families for the next season, do you think they will have singles again such as with bernie and brittany. I am the only fat one of the family and need to be on the show

TEEN BIGGEST LOSER! pleez guys, what r ur thoughts? im 16 and although i only have about 10 pounds to lose, i know how much of an inspiration this would be and how many people would tune in. wut do ya'll think?

Hi Jillian,

I have a question on how to get 6 pack abs. Need help?

What would you suggest for a contestant that had shin splints and could not run on the treadmill? and could a type two diabetic ever appear on biggest loser?

After Mark or Roger are voted off by us. How will the winner be awarded?

Bob and Jillian,
I love you both and wondered if you could help.I need to gain weight do to severe crohns. I use to weigh 188 and lost 50 on my own and then the disease stole the rest. I need to get back up to 115 -120. Can you recommend a way to safely get the weight back on with a compromised absorption problem ?

I love the show and I am only 18!

I love Celine Dion Taking
Chances. I think that you should ask her to perform on the show. People have said that i look like her, and that i am too skinny.

I think that both ali and kelly should win.

What am I doing wrong?? I cannot lose any weight...yet I run 2-3 miles 5 days a week and recumbant bike 20-30 miles 5 days a week and on one day I go 50 miles. I think I heat pretty healthy...given up chocolate...but can't seem to lose weight. Any suggestions?

are workouts and challenges really hard for a morbidly obese women. i need to loose 200 lbs

Help, weight 245 / 5"9 broght treadmill, stepper and weight, need / want exercise program diet/ Please help me help myself.

How do you go about finding the ingredients you need for your meals so that they are low calorie and low fat. This seems to be the hardest thing to do. Just like you had showed the contestants on todays show.

Jillian-

I have a very heartfelt and grateful letter I have written you. I wanted to send it to you through myspace, but it shows that you haven't logged on in a long time. It is something that I have wanted to write to you for a long time- telling about my tragedy over two years ago and how you've helped me find inspiration in my life again to try and get my life as a mid 20 year old back and to live a life worth living. Is there anyway I can get my letter to you? If so, please email me at my email above and let me know. It would mean the world to me to share my story with you. Thank you Jillian.

Sincerely and forever grateful.
Amy M-H

hi, Im 5'3/4 inches tall what should my average weight be?

I need help in motivation. I only need to lose 20 lbs. but it might as well be 100. I eat low fat, fiber, white meat, but how do I break this non motivated trend? You guys are awesome. How much training and how do I go about it on a low budget?

please help! I love bob's approach and learn so much just by hearing him counsel/ coach they team, even though kelly is my fav contestant. I really need the experience, and need a new lease onm life. I am dying to eat and eating to die ( I guess you could say). I cant do this alone and I feel so alone at home with a major addiction to food. I ate a half gallon of ice cream by myself last night . Thank you guys for so much... I am so inspired by this show and not just with weight but alot of others aspects of life.

Hey guys, im 16 and i really need some advice. im recovering from bulimia and wondered if you guys had any helpful hints to get me through? you are both such an inspiration!!
Thanks so much!

Hi, I wanted to find out what I can do to safely loose weight while nursing. I would love to get back in shape and do not want to wait until my baby is a year old. I also feel like I need to be accountable to someone, or I will not stay on track. What would you recomend and are there good nutritional programs for nursing moms? Thank you. You guys are great.

Hiya Bob and Jillian

Thanks to the both of you for the lives you have changed. I have opened my eyes to the wrong things I do. I am 5'2 over 200lbs. The tips and encouragement you give on the show have touched me, they have touch me to know I can feel like a woman again instead of a fat piece of sh*t existing in this world. I am going to make a difference and a REAL life for me and my family...Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou for leading me in the right direction. Wish me Luck !!!!

Sherry in PA.

I have lost 50 lbs since watching this show. Now I want to start working out, what should i pay close attention to while doing this. I am not a physical fit person. thanks for your guidance

Bob or Jillian I watch Biggest Loser every week, you guys are awesome. I've been working out for 7 weeks and am noticing a difference. My question is how do you lose the extra skin when you lose weight it all seems to be going to my midsection. I drink water all day long from the time I wake up until I go to bed. What can I do so I can look good in a bikini?

What would you sugest for a contestant with shin splints and could not run on a treadmill? And can a type two diabetic appear on Biggest Loser?

Jullian and Bob,
I love the show so much and would love some great advice for my so to be 14 yr old daughter. She is about 195 lbs and she wants to lose weight but we really can't afford a 24/7 gym for her to go to. She eats the stuff at school and we know its not nutitional for her. And at home we really dont know how to perpare foods for ourselves in a more health way. Can you give me and my daughter some tips for her to lose weight and being more healthy. Even her doctor said she needs to lose the weight. HELP!!!!!!!!

Just want to say thanks for the inspiration. Even though I am at the opposite side of the weight spectrum I have had to always fight to change the first impression of being week and uncapable. The people on this show have given me so much more inspiration and to take my getting fit seriously and to quit my 30 year smoking habit. Go Ali! You are smoking hot!!

Jillian,
Will u be on the show next season? Im very concerned that you will not be due to what happened with Allison. I would much rather see you there than that Kim trainer that was there before.

I want to lose 15 lbs I've been running 10-12 miles a week and weight training 2 times a week but I'm not losing anything. Do I need to do more cardio or weight traing?? I am watching what I eat so what do I need to change?

Help, weight 245 / 5"9 broght treadmill, stepper and weight, need / want exercise program diet/ Please help me help myself.

I need to gain weight do to severe crohns. I use to weigh 188 and lost 50 on my own and then the disease stole the rest. I need to get back up to 115 -129. Can you recommend a way to safely get the weight back on with a compromised absorption problem ?

I think this season has been the best. I had a question, I recently had ankle surgery and diet alone is not producting any weight loss. I was wondering what some good exercises to do that will not put pressure or strain on my ankle. (besides swimming no one wants to see shamu unless they're at SeaWorld) Thank You and keep up the great work getting America thin!

are there any work out tapes made by either you guys?

I am so tired of looking at myself and seeing how bad I am

I am at about 185-190lbs and it just sickens me

Being a mother of 3 children makes it hard to work out plus I work from home to so I dont get out much

im 5'4 and will be 29 on the 10th and what ideal calorie intake do you think I should do for my body style

i am thinking of walking 3 times a week for 30 minutes but not even sure if that would help

thanks if you can answer me

Hey Bob & Jillian

Do you have any ideas on how a 10 year old can lose weight quickly and safely? I am a 10 year old boy and would like to lose about 15 or 20 pounds. My doctor says I am healthy but am a little over weight. I am too young to join a gym and the recreation center won't let me use their treadmill until I am 13.

Thanks

PS You guys ROCK. I watch your show with my mom Drea

What would you sugest for a contestant with shin splints and could not run on a treadmill? And can a type two diabetic appear on Biggest Loser?

Would you guys ever consider a "Biggest Loser - College?" Lots of folks gain a bunch of weight during their college years. Gotta love all that alcohol and pizza....

This question is for both Bob and Jillian.

I have watched this show from day one and always imagine myslef losing weight but can not seem to keep my self motivated. I take online classes and work on school work all day until I pick up my kids from school. I have a tredmill, small dumbbells and a balance ball to use, I also have the Biggest loser workout video. What can I do to help myslef stay motivated? I really need to lose quite a bit of weight.

Thanks,
Mandi

Just curious- When was tonight's episode taped? How much time do the contestants have at home before the finale?

Hi! Love you guys and the show!! I have a question for you both regarding my personal workouts/diet. I'm 36 yrs old & had my 5th child 8 months ago. I had complications during the delivery and needed an emergency c-section. It was the 1st one I ever had and I think my abs really paid for it!!! I have been working out for about 4 months now, (I had complications after the delivery too so I couldn't do anything for the 1st few months), and I am still having issues w/my belly/buns. I'm ALWAYS hungry and it is very hard for me to eat only 1200 calories a day, after all I'm running after 5 kids, 12 yrs-8 months old. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Lots of love to you both!!!

just wanted to say that jillian is my inspiration to keep going. you def. understand that there are reasons why people are over weight and you get invested in to people to help change their life and you make me feel like i can go all the way and reach my goals and i dont even know you! thank you so much for everything!

I think you guys and the show are awsome. I have been encouraged from the show to lose 30 pounds. Thank you so much for your inspiration and advice. I can't tell you how much it means to me. I don't know what I'm going to watch on Tues. nights now.This show has definitely got me motivated in the right direction. Thanks so much. GO BLACK TEAM!!!

I just love watching your show and I usually work out while watching. I have been feeling very tired lately and belive that I am suffering from overtraining I use a calorie calculator and I have been burning between 2000 and 3000 calories a week through exercise probably for the last month. I have decided to take a 5 day rest period. Do you have any suggestions... how do you keep the contestants from getting overtrained?

Ya'll never talk about yourself. I'd like to know your daily routine, as well as family living.

But, my question is this...Is it OK to starve myself? I'm down to eating 1 thing a day. I have lost almost 20lbs. I need to loose.

Go Kellie and Ali!!!

Jillian-

I have a very heartfelt and grateful letter I have written you. I wanted to send it to you through myspace, but it shows that you haven't logged on in a long time. It is something that I have wanted to write to you for a long time- telling about my tragedy over two years ago and how you've helped me find inspiration in my life again to try and get my life as a mid 20 year old back and to live a life worth living. Is there anyway I can get my letter to you? If so, please email me at my email above and let me know. It would mean the world to me to share my story with you. Thank you Jillian.

Sincerely and forever grateful.

Hi Jillian,

I have a question on how to get 6 pack abs. Need help?

Hey Guys-
Me again. This time with a question. I finally quit smoking this past June when my grandfather was diagnosed with lung cancer. I am proud of myself but I have gained back 28 of the 60 lbs I lost. I feel like my metabolism has stopped dead!! Any suggestions?

Can you tell me how many calories a 30 year old weighing in at 235 pounds should take in?

Does Ali have more weight to loose?

I need help!!

This is a question for either of the trainers...As a dietetic student we've learned that losing 1 to 2 lbs. a week is an healthy amount of weight to lose. I understand that the first week or two the contestants are losing primarily water weight, but how is it healthy to continue losing so many pounds in such a short amount of time? I'm a big fan of the show and what you guys do is amazing, I'm just interested and concerned about how healthy it is to be losing such large amounts of weight per week. Thanks!

Jillian and Bob. I am truly inspired with your efforts and dedication in helping people take off weight. I don't find you are actors in The Biggest Loser program, but real people helping others. I 100% relate on all levels, and for the first time, my shell of my life is moving forward (because of you) because of the fantastic guys and girls you have guided to their goals. I cry sincere tears, taste happiness, and see there is indeed a road for me. With my heart I send my love, and I wish you all the best in all your endeavors. Cheers to you...keep it going!
A shy girl...and a new friend.

Jillian,
You have been a huge inspiration to me. I have now lost a total of 200 pounds. I got motivated into losing weight by seing the biggest loser show a couple of years ago. I can relate with the changes these people are experiencing with the weight loss as I have experienced many changes since my drastic weight loss. People still can't believe that I have lost all the weight that I have lost without surgery. I wish I would have someone like you at my side through my weight loss journey. You really inspire me.

I was so excited tonight when
I saw ALi and Kelly in the top two. I hope that one of them wins they both deserve it.

Rivki

I just have a workout question. I have been working out four seven months at least 3-4 times a week and I am seeing results. Any other hints your have would be great. I try to use the hints you give on the show.

Hi Jillian, Bob

Hi guys,

When are you going to do a north of the border Biggest Loser?? We need you in Canada! No need to travel half way around the world.

Love you guys and your motivation (or is that torment?)

for a morbidly obese person, are challanges and workouts really hard to keep up with?

for a morbidly obese person, are challanges and workouts really hard to keep up with?

Bob, my wife and I have been workin on losing weight since the first of December. So far, I have lost about 44 pounds. I have started to incorporate exercise into my routine. Can you recommend a couple books that would help me choose resistance training that would help reshape my body and build muscle as I continue to lose? Can you also reccomend a cardio regimen that will help maximize weight loss while increasing metabolism?

You are a great motivator and I wish there more trainers like you out there were more readily accessible to the general public. Thanks to you and Jillian and Kim to being such great motivators and inspirations to us all.

Tony

So much of my life seems to revolve around food and I'm surrounded by ENABLERS! All I hear is, "You look fine." "You don't need to lose weight" and so on and so on. What is a GIRL TO DO?! PLEASE help!

Where do we vote for Roger or Mark?

hey jillian tell me how did that really make you feel when they gave america the vote tonight?

I had gastric bypass 2 yrs ago and have lost 125lbs. I would like to lose another 20lbs but have reached a plateau. What can I do to jumpstart the weight loss again? I wish I had both of you to help me in my workouts. I love the show!

I have trouble losing my belly fat. I had a c-section and I can't seem to find anything that will shrink the lower part of my stomach. Please help!!! Thanks and I love the show

I have been watching the biggest loser loyally, and this year decided to do what I could at home. I don't have the money for trainers, so I sent to the biggest loser site and found my bmi, and began my life change. I have lost 30 pounds and will keep going until I get to where I am comfortable with me. Thank you for your guidance

Hey! You are both amazing!

What happens to their skin after losing all that weight so quickly?

Also, I'm trying to grow a butt, any tips?!

jillian!!! what can i say.. you are 1 heck of a woman... love the show...thanks for all you do...

Hey guys! :)

I've been a smoker for over 25 years, and I love fried foods. Now that I'm 40 my metabolism has changed, I used to be really thin.. what can I do??

i been trying to lose weight on my lone and i end up gain a few pounds or stay the same weight. do you have any ideas for me to lose about 40 pounds i stop drinking soda

I have the opposite problem of the fokls on the show that I need to gain weight . I use to be 188 and then lost 50 on my own and then illness and disease took the rest. Can either of you recommend a way to put some weight back on despite being on a feeding tube ?

I have large arches that the doctors say there isnt anything I can do, no shoes or padding is made for my large arches. Working out becomes painful after a few days and sometimes so painful that I am limp around for weeks. Is there anything that I can do?

Bob & Jillian
Hi - Just a comment. This has been my favorite season yet of Biggest Loser. You two are so great at what you do. You have helped to turn many lives around for the better - even helped to add years to these lives to spend with friends & family. Great Job!!

I have large arches that the doctors say there isnt anything I can do, no shoes or padding is made for my large arches. Working out becomes painful after a few days and sometimes so painful that I am limp around for weeks. Is there anything that I can do?

Also, is it realistic to loose as much weight as the contestants in that time period. I have so much to loose and will do anything to try and loose it quickly, safely and the healthy way?

Did either of you ever have serious issues with weight loss?

I'm 66 years old - weigh 225 at 5'3" - no way could I do the workouts like are on the show. Is there any hope for seniors?

Also, is it realistic to loose as much weight as the contestants in that time period. I have so much to loose and will do anything to try and loose it quickly, safely and the healthy way?

Just curious- When was tonight's episode taped? How much time do the contestants have at home before the finale?

The song you listen to that gives you that lil PUSH through a workout? Bob? Jillian?

When voting don't forget the name of the show! Who has lost the most Roger or Mark? Roger of course!

Jillian and Bob,

The two of you are amazing! To see such transformation of this season's participants gives me more desire to change and accomplish what I need to do. I am 50 yrs YOUNG but unfortunately only in my mind. This weight I've gained has really aged my body. My knees are a mess! I've already had one arthroscopic procedure on an injured knee (for which the surgeon says my obesity plays no role in...hogwash!) and really don't want to endure any more of them. Jillian, I used to think (before this season) that there was no way in hell that I'd ever agree to have you as one of my trainers on the show when I win an audition! Well, after this one, I've changed my mind! Keep up the great work J & B! I hope to see you face to face in an upcoming season!

Jillian...Do you train people outside of the show or does the show take up most of your time??? Also...did I mention that YOU ARE MY HERO!!!!

Jillian and Bob, is it possible to get on the show, even after having gastric bypass surgery, and also what are your thoughts and on the surgery....I've already had it and have lost 180 pounds, but have gained about 50 back

What are tips to stay movitvated to loose weight?? I've lost 80 lbs so far but struggle with keeping it going as well as others i am sure.

I have notticed that I am a rut and I can't get out of it. I have used food in the past as a wall to not let any one know what I am feeling. I am only 23 years old and over 280 lbs but I can't get myself in letting the wall down at home do you have any advice.

How do you think a younger person like around 11 years old should lose weight? I think that kind if workout might be too much intensity . What do you think?

First let me say that I love the Biggest Loser and it's trainers. Bob, Jillian and Kim are absolutely AMAZING TRAINERS!!! I am an overweight female that searched and found a fitness boot camp to attend, but my biggest obstacle is that I have severe SHIN SPLINTS when power walking or running and they hinder me greatly. Any suggestions on how to get over this severe SHIN pain? I love you guys and I'm am so happy for the girls. Go Alley and Kelly.

Jillian you absolutely ROCK - you recognize the emotional element of the weight problems of your team and you address them in such as sincere way. Bob- I think you are kinda CUTE! (Figured you should know that!;0)

How do u vote I missed it because my tape ran out of taping?

Hey Bob and Jillian! I think the two of you are awesome and inspiring. I was wanting to try to get on the show but missed the deadline. Losing weight for me would be a dream come true. I love who I am on the inside but hate who I am on the outside and how it has made me view myself and life. I have a husband and two children that need me and need me to be around. I have taken the first steps and cut back on unhealthy foods and began a memebership at 24 hour fitness. I still don't know if I can do this. It is so hard to look at the scale and at how much weight I have gained throughout the years and how much weight I need to loose. I am 5'3" and weigh almost 270 pounds. Everyone in my family is overweight and I dont want to live like that and I dont want my children to have to deal with a weight issue. I now that I will need discipline and I am in need of some kind of inspiration to help me push through this life changing experience. I cannot live like this anymore. I have no energy for my children like I want and I feel depressed much of the time. I think you guys rock and this show is awesome. Very emotional for me. And I wanted to say "You go girls! Congratulations on the weigh in tonight!"

I have lost 68lbs since feb14th,I find myself cheating lately,bt my body seems to want it.(M&M's)
is this normal? I still am losing but don't understand the cravings

I'm 53 years old and 40 lbs. overweight. Because of a car accident 35 years ago, and surgery, I am unable to do literally any exercising. What can you suggest?

I had a gastric bypass on April 13, 2000 and I lost 134 pounds in a year including the other 2 surgeries. I have to tell you that I feel bad after seeing Ali and watching how she has changed. I have not really watched the show until I would see her on TV and then I had too. She has done an amazing job! I wish I could learn how to tone and build muscle now. I want to use the ball and some weights for my arms I would like to wear sleeveless shirts also.

I need help!!

so we vote for the person we want to return not the person we want gone?

Jillian and Bob, let me just first off say you two are beautiful 8-D

For both of you, which season of TBL would you say you were most touched by?

A workout DVD from the show with Jillian and Bob is a GREAT idea! it would really be very helpful; I would purchase for sure!

Desperate to get on the show! Really need help and motivation to save my physical and emotional health.

i weigh 363 and need help on where to start. Any suggesions on where to start

i'm 30 yrs.old andtrying to start exersice again after a slight stroke, but dont konw where or how to start again. any advice. love what you guys do. keep it up!!!

Is it safe to workout at home for four to six hours a day? I need to lose about 119 lbs. I have lowered calorie intake to 1500 but still not losing like I want too. Thanks! You both are great trainers! :)

Jillian and Bob,
First of all thank you both for all the great assistance that you have given those you have worked with for growth and change. I hope that they continue on their journey healthily.
As for me, I have a labral tear in my hip. I have gained 25 lbs from the experience. I have lost 10 lbs of that 25lbs just watching my nutrition. Since January 1st. I struggle to exercise as the injury affects so many muscle groups. I have been trying to walk between 1-2 miles a week to minimize the stress on my muscles. I am trying to find weight routines for my upper body to assist me. Can you suggest anything to assist me? I’m used to being very active and I was a runner before the injury. I’m not much of a swimmer so that is not an option. I look forward to hearing from you.
Kim

Bob & Jillian,
Do you live on the ranch with the contestants?
Linda

Hi..I admire you both for how you keep the contestants motivated...my question for you is...I quit smoking almost 2 yr. ago and have gained 52 lbs. I'm in a weight loss program but it's going really slow. My body, especially my stomach looks horrible...how can i get some muscle tone back as i'm trying to lose weight? i know nothing about weights and we don't have a gym where I live.

I need help! I’m 20 years old and weigh 290 lbs. I’ve always struggled with my weight and I’m sick and tired of it! I hate going shopping with my friends because they can all shop in the junior/young adult section so I just have to sit there and watch them try everything on. I want to ENJOY shopping, not dread it. I want to be healthy and also a healthy “skinny.” I want to be able to look good and feel good about myself. I’ve never had a date and I know part of it is because I’m overweight. I need to change and I need to change now! Can you help?

Jillian,
I'm a fast oxidizer who is allergic to nuts and hates to cook. Any ideas on protein snacks? Congrats on the girls!

How tall are each of the contestents?

i had thyroid cancer last june they removed my thyroid now i have trouble lossing weight and my energy level is low my doc. say my levels are fine do you have any suggestion for me.

Bob and Jillian, HELP! I am 23 years old and have gained 80 pounds in the last 3 years; twenty pounds of which I have gained in the last 2 months. I am losing control quickly! I want so desparately to lose weight. I graduate from college in June and instead of being excited, I only dread the embarassment of being fat at graduation ceremonies and events. I am phobic of fruits and vegetables. Do you have any help for someone like me? I would love to enjoy the rest of my 20's! Can you help me with tips to get started?

What would you say is the hardest part about your job as you see people through this process? Also, how do you recover from getting so emotionally involved with contestants, that is, how do you take care of yourselves on the side??

Hello Bob & Jillian
Thanks so much for the motivation you give to everyone. I would love to someday meet both of you.
Do you ever make appearances around the US?

It seems as if someone behind the show is trying to manipulate the outcome. The girls finally get a chance to vote, and you take that away from them. It wasn't bad enough you had the big guys against the rest?

Am I on the right thing for the Live Blog? or is it just getting a late start?

I just want to say congratulations to both trianers(Bob & Jillian)as usual you both did a great job this season.... however GIRLS RULE!!!! I have been a fan supporting Kelly from day one!! I can't believe she has gotten so far. I look forward to the finale next week.. Best of luck to everyone....
GO KELLY & ALI (JILLIAN TOO)
I just lost 15lbs with weight watchers and understand how good it feels when you can accomplish something!!!KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK EVEYONE!!!!

Hello to both of you. In Sept I was at 379 but thanks to the show, your DVD's, and books I have lost to 251. I just wanted to say thank you so much.

I really enjoyed this season and I am so proud of all the contestants, however since I cannot afford to buy the meals and get equipment and I also have to cook for my family who does not like to eat light, what can I do for myself, I have high blood pressure too, I really need to lose weight. Thanks

TRAINER QUESTION!

Ok guys- do you have any advice for all the trainers out there who are working with people who are similiar to the contestants on the Biggest Loser? What is the most important thing to keep in mind while trying to motivate people who may not lose weight as fast as they see on the show?

Hello to both of you. In Sept I was at 379 but thanks to the show, your DVD's, and books I have lost to 251. I just wanted to say thank you so much.

Do we vote for who stays or who goes home? It looks a little confusing.

I am 15 years old and I am praying and hoping that NBC will strat a Biggest loser teens. I feel that Teens should be able to lose weight, simply because being a teen is harder then what it used to be. Some teens simply feel ugly and a I think Biggest loser can help change lives and make a better generation of healthier and more confident people.

Hey guys! I need advice. My husband is in the military and is deployed a lot! I am a 33 year old stay at home mom of 3. I'm about 170 lbs. and am 5'5. I eat decent and can't afford to go to a gym. I really want to lose about 25-30 lbs., but not sure how to go about it without all the proper equipment. HELP!!!

Jillian,

Who do you think is going to win?

i weigh t least 363 and need to lose at least 209 pounds any suggestions on how to start the process

I have tried everything and cannot lose weight! How much cardio and strength training per day should I be doing? Also how do I lose weight without getting saggy skin (cuz that scares me) and some of the bigger contestants have lost alot and dont look like they have saggy skin! So what is the secret?

Thanks you guys are the best!

First off love you both!! Bob i've lost 50 pounds because of you!!! I was wondering, what is both of yours favorite pass time BESIDES working out??? If there is time!

HELP! This keeps loosing my comment so bob please emaiol so that I can ask for help

hi guys!! congrats on both your teams they did sooo good. question for ya!! i start and can stay on board with a program for 2 weeks then blow it!! what am i doing wrong??? how do you stay motavated????

Hi Jillian, I need to know how to push myself to work out by myself?

I have been working out hard for about 14 weeks and haven't seen the scales drop. I curcuit train 4 days a week and cardio 6 days a week. How do I get my self away from the food!!?!?!?!

There is almost always a psychological component to weight issues. Have either of you dealt with significant weight issues of your own in the past, which may help you understand what these contestants might be going through? If not, what has prepared you for dealing with that mental block to weight loss (or especially to maintaining weight loss)?

Hey, I love all you guys. I am so..................proud of all of you!!!! High five to ya all! The Best Season EVER!

thank you for always giving me faith that no matter what, if you decide to change it can happen.i love watching year after year and i am very happy to see that a woman is finally going to win...I love you Bob but Jillian you did it.Thanks for all the women in the world.Love you all.

I LOVE watching the show! I am a stay at home mom of 3 boys... since I do stay at home I find it is difficult to find the time to get out of the house to workout. Not to mention that part of staying at home means a tight budget. What are some things I can do at home w/out much equipment to lose weight and tone my muscles? I'm 26. I'm 5' 7" and weigh 220 lbs.

I lost 50 pounds, hit a plateau and cannot get back on track. What suggestions do you have to help continue the weight loss effort? I need to another 20 pounds and am finding myself backsliding. Help!!!

This is to both Bob and Jillian,

When are you two ever going to hook up?

Could Mark possibly cry any more???!?!?!

America, please. I urge you to not vote Mr Crybaby into the final 3.

congratulations ali and kelly! i've watched almost every season and i've been waiting for a woman to win, i know this will be it! i screamed for 10 minutes strait when i first found out! so proud!!

Sleep - Please let us know how much sleep was encouraged and the benefit of it for the Biggest Losers. Thank you.

Jillian,
I have been reading your book. I have been working out for 3 months and I have lost 18 lbs. Should I have lost more than that by now?

On the vote between Mark and Roger, am I voting for who I want to eliminate or who I want to be in the finale?

I love watching your show and am amazed at the weight lost each week by each person. How many calories do you eat each day? I'm on WW and the most I have lost in a week is 4.5 lbs. I exercise but I'm certain it is not as much as your participants do. Help me.

so what are the chances of being chosen to be on the show? sent out my app. on march 12,2007

I have large arches on my feet and it becomes painful after a few days of working out usually so painful that I am limping around for weeks. Is there something that will help, my doctor just says my arches are big and most shoes and padding arent made for my feet.

Two things - GO ROGER! You have been awesome! Second, where can we get the monitor they were wearing?

I am 25 years old and on Feb 15th I had my second c section. I want to get back into shape starting now. what are the safest exercises I can do now? And how long should I wait to kick my own butt?

Jillian & Bob, you inspire me! You are awesome trainers and life coaches. Thank you for all you do!

Question: do you stay in touch with the contestants from previous seasons?

I'm training for a marathon, do you have any tips to increase speed and endurance? I am trying to lose about 7 pounds and find myself hungry all of of the time and am trying to maintain 1700 calories. Any suggestions? This is my 3rd marathon...each time is better speed wise but I want this to be my best...thanks!

Thank you both for all the tips and a great season. Jillian are you single ??? (hoping you say yes)

Love you both so much! trying to lose weight... 25 pounds since july. just joined the gym and sat down with a trainer. what is the one piece of advice you would give me? already keep a food journal and count my steps. your advice is treasured! love you both.

Hi, Bob! I'm coming to see you in Dallas next week!

How do you both feel about this vote? I feel all four earned the right to be in the final. It bothers me.

Hi Bob & Jillian,

Any plans for the Biggest Loser for Canada? We could definetly use some of you butt kicking motivation up here! Otherwise do you think they would accept Canadian contestants down there?

Love what you guys do!

What would you say is the hardest part about your job as you see people through this process? Also, how do you recover from getting so emotionally involved with contestants, that is, how do you take care of yourselves on the side??

Any ideas on ww vs low carb such as south beach diet?

Hello! I am a mother of 3 with my newest only being 5 months old. I can't complain much I am only a size 10 weighing 150 pounds. My concern is that I have a very unattractive lower waist line. I honestly look like a muffin top. Can you tell me the best exercise that will help to flatten my lower abdominal area? I appreciate the help!!!!

Jillian thanks so much for being such a role model. I wonder what you say to folks that are starting out with huge amounts of weight to drop. I am looking at 100 plus lbs to drop and have started and stopped many many times....

Weight watchers Smart ones..Healthy Choice or lean Cuisine? If you were to pick one up for a quick lunch or dinner which would you coose and why?

I love this show. I have watched it faithfully since week one, and have been completely motivated by it. I have lost 18 pounds so far! Bob...I just want to say that you are extremely handsome and I would totally love to marry you if you're available!! :)

Mark is such a cry-baby - talk about drama queen. I am so happy he fell below the yellow line - I would have voted for anyone just to vote against him.

GO KELLY - I really hope she wins - she came so far!

Most diets say that a healthy weight loss is 1-2 pounds a week. Most contestants are lossing more than that. Is it ok to combine diet and exercise and lose more than 2 pounds a week safely?

kelly if my favorite...no one helped push her this far but herself and jillian. everyone looks amazing, but more power to the girls!!

First congratulations to Ali, and Kelly!!!
I have a weight problem. I am in a catch 22...I have sore joint and muscles because I am heavy. If I work out they hurt even more which makes me not want to work out. I am 5'8 and 240. Any suggestions? Thank you, Lisa

I'm a 42 year old mom. I want to lose about 35-40 lbs. I just can't seem to get in the excersing mood or the correct eating mood. Is there anything that you could suggest to me that I could do. I just had a baby on 3/7/07 and just can't seem to lose the weight from my 4th son and my 3rd son that I had on 6/20/97. I use to go to the gym but then just stopped and then I've tried Weight Watchers and can't stick to that either. Please HELP from Greenwich CT

I believe that it's truly amazing what the trainer's do for the contestants on TBL. I also believe that it's a wonderful thing that NBC uses it's time, money, and everything else to change the lives of these everyday heroes. I looove TBL, Jillian, Bob, & all those people that have changed their lives for themselves and their loved ones!!! Rock on, guys!

Hi Jillan and Bob,
Do you have any suggestions for me? I am a 13 year old who feels like he needs to lose weight.

I just wanted to say thank you to Bob and Jillian you guys keep me going on my weight loss journey I started at 310lbs at 24 yrs old this was not healthy now I am at 204lbs and still going!!! Thanks for the inspiration.. It makes me think I will win this battle..

Great job Jillian.
I have back and neck problems how can I get the belly fat off without causing more harm to my condition?

Jillian don't worry that you cried = tough guys do it. We always told our kids the coach yelled a them cause they cared. Thats what you do! Anyway the hardest thing for me is going it alone. How do I gain the willpower? Been getting up early to walk but I fight myself over it. How does a person stay motivated to move??????

What is the best way to tone my flabby arms? I have lost my butt(or so my 5 year old says it has "disappeared") but working with hand weights and can't seem to get my arms to tone. Mother/grandmother both had huge arms.I am 43. Thanks for getting me to finally lose these last 20 lbs since my last pregnancy. It is amazing how you are changing so many lives, you certainly have changed mine.

I have had two c-sections and my stomach is so wierd now. Please help me I can't seem to lose much weight in my stomach area. Thanks!!!!

What did the ladies do to lose so much weight at the last weigh-in, especially Kelly?

i love the girls they went to so much to lose all that they did

I am on this very low carb, low fat diet. Basically I eat less than 800 calories a day and i'm supposed to take potassium pills and vitamins to make up the difference, and I also get B6/B12 shots three times a week. It is supposed to guarantee 5 pounds a week weight loss. I have lost some weight, but I'm so tired I can barely function. And I am so tired of eating chicken breast and steamed vegetables. They also tell you that you are not allowed to exercise while on the program. There must be a better way to lose 40 pounds by the summer???

Great job this season Bob and Jillian! Any tips for getting motivated and staying motivated????? Help!!

I know you guys don't have much time. I just want to tell you guys YOU ARE AMAZING!!!
One questions - I've been working out 5-6 days for 1 hr and have a miniscus tear - what types of workouts do you recommend??? I have lost 20 lbs. since November and need to loose another 50, PLEASE HELP I am so motivated - I am working out and don't want to stop.

PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE HELLLLLPPPP

My question is about caloric intake. If my daily caloric goal is 1,200 to lose 2 pounds per week and I workout 5 days a week for 30 minutes and burn 400 calories, does this mean I should or could be consuming 1,600 calories per day?

Jillian,

Thank you for taking the girls all the way to the final! You are the best!

When was tonight's show taped? How long are the contestants going to be at home and on their own before the finale?

I was in a car accident 13 1/2 years ago and broke both legs including my left ankle and left knee. Since then, i have gained about 100 pounds. A lot of your exercises on the show are very difficult if not impossible for me to do, including squats, lunges and running. Do you have any suggestions?

Husband allergic to all poultry any suggestions?? He is also a self sabotager any help there?

jillian,
you're a great trainer. what ever happened to you co-owning sky sport and spa with jackie warner? thanks for reading

Hey you guys, love ya both. I have struggled with weight for awhile. I just can't seem to lose. It keeps going up. I joined snap fitness at the beginning of the year and was really excited and loved to go and felt great about it, until I wasn't seeing the results on the scale. I have come to the realization that I can not do this on my own, I definately need the show to focus on my self. Help me desperate mother of 3 who wants to be a biggest loser contestant!!!!!

Hi Bob & Jillian - Love you both. I was injured in a bad fall 2 years ago and have lost more than 50% use of my left leg. What kind of excerises can I do to strengthen muscles, etc. I have been loosing weight following the eat when your hungry and don't over eat rule but I am not active due to my limitations.
Thank you for a great season!

jillian,

Thanks

I have 60 lbs to lose, not a lot for some but for someone less than 5 feet it is a lot. I would love to maintain the motivation the other contestants have. How do they do this? Is it possible to have Bob or Jillian come to NJ for a few weeks to work out w/those that cannot make the show?

Thanks!! Love the BL workouts!!

I wanted to auditon but my concern is how do the bills get paid while I am on campus for 4 months? I am a single mom and the only income for my children but I am so tired of feeling this struggle and trying only to wind up at square one.

What do you guys prefer:the 16 or 32 oz. water bottle that were used by the contestants?

Bob and Jillian,
When did taping end for the show and how long are the contestents at home on there own? thanks it is great to see what you do!

Jillian- you are awesome and did a great job with those girls!! CONGRATS!! and dont listen to any of the bad comments people give you!!!GO TEAM!

YES!!!!!! I knew the girls would do it! Congrats Jillian, you did a heck of a job with them. I want you as my trainer. :)

Congrats Ali and Kelly
Good Luck Mark!!!

what did the contestants do differently this week to break through the plateau? All four of them lost an amzing amount of weight in one week! Is it healthy?

Jillian you ROCK!!! The girls look awsome. Vote for Mark so our girls have a better chance at the finale!!!

This is kind of hokey, but has NBC ever tossed around the idea of a celebrity Biggest Loser?

Bob, I am 285lbs 5'10 male. I have had back surgery. Recently I bought a treadmill, for faster weight loss is it better to go for 1 hour at a medium pace or at the fastest pace I can go for 1/2 hour?

I love you Bob and Jillian. I too am trying to lose weight. I joined a gym last October and have yet to go. I'm paying for something I'm not even using.

Some of the ingredients I see on the receipes posted are things I have never heard of. Are these available in regular grocery stores or only in Health Food Stores? Also, it always seems like it costs more to eat healthy. Any suggestions?? Thanks and love you guys!!

I started the BLC at the end of Dec. and lost 13lbs. only to give up by mid-Feb. Now I've gained all of it back plus some. I weight two more pounds than Kelli's starting wgt. What advice can you give me for NOT giving up?

What kind of diet would you suggest for losing weight?? How many calories a day?? Go Ali and Kelly we need a women to Win.

A workout DVD is a GREAT idea! it would really be very helpful; I would purchase for sure!

Why is it so HARD to get started???

What do u think someone who is around 11 years old should do? For example, go on a diet, follow what's on tv, ??????

Jillian,
You are amazing! I too am a personal trainer and you inspire me!!! Thank you!

I've enjoyed watching the Biggest Loser over the last five years and it has motivated me to begin the process of losing weight; however, one of the major things that stand in my way is Type I Diabetes. What advice would you be able to give me in acheiving my weight loss goals of 100 pounds. I look forward to any advice that you have to give me.

-- Thanks in advance.

OMg congrats Kelly and Ali. I love Jillian she is so funny. Jillian do you keep in tough with past and present contestants?

How r the contestants not too sore to workout so hard everyday???

Jillian you're awesome and Bob YOU ARE SO HOT!!

I run marathons and Mark now weighs less than I do! What is a really good cross training activity to go with my marathon training?

I like another lady am agorphic....I have lost some weight but I cant keep the fear...how I wish I could lose the weight and the fear and be strong like Julianne without bad language...that would be Awesome!! LOVE ALL YOU GUYS...YOU ARE SOO STRONG AND DEDICATED!!

How is the biggest loser actually chosen? Is the finale just a weigh in like the other weeks? It seems as though some people like Ali and Mark cant really lose much more weight.

Hello Bob and Jillian...we never get to see either of you work out on the show. What sort of workout regimen do you follow? What's a typical day for you? I'm also curious on how much Jillian weighs...you look great!

I run marathons and Mark now weighs less than I do! What is a really good cross training activity to go with my marathon training?

I've been big for 26 years and I want to change that. My goal is to lose 50 pounds (30 at the very least) by November 2008. I have joined Curves, I have given up soda all together (3 months soda free now!) & my husband and I are eating high protein/veggies & very low to no carbs. I have really bad back (pinched sciatic nerve) & knee problems. I feel like every time I start to get somewhere, my back freaks out on me and then I can't do anything for at least two weeks! Every time I feel like "its starting to work" and I'm staring to lose something, I have to stop working which makes me stop losing. I get so frustrated & angry with myself and so discouraged it makes me want to just give up. I've thought about trying out for the Biggest Loser but I really don't think I could physically handle it (due to my back/knee issues).

How do I stay motivated to keep going? What can I do differently? Is there anything I can do on my own when I can make it to Curves when my back is out (I'm lucky if I can even walk when this happens)?

Jillian, You're a BEAST!
Were did the contestants get their new cloths? Were they able to go shopping? Or did they get them all from the makeover?

I run marathons and Mark now weighs less than I do! What is a really good cross training activity to go with my marathon training?

Really happy for Kelly and Ali.

Bob, it was great meeting you last week in NJ! I was just wondering how often you two recommend a person on a weight loss plan weigh themselve? I've heard varying opinions; a professor told me once a day, other programs say once a week, I generally do it 3-4 tims a day haha. What is right?

Hello Bob and Jillian...we never get to see either of you work out on the show. What sort of workout regimen do you follow? What's a typical day for you? I'm also curious on how much Jillian weighs...you look great!

What are your thoughts on gastric bypass. My husband had the surgery on 12/18 and has lost 108 lbs. He does work out on our gazelle for about 45 minutes daily, but he's looking for something with more cardio. Any suggestions?

I'm a Teacher and Mom, 36 years old, who needs to lose 65 pounds. How do I fit an exercise routine into my day when I don't have a flexible schedule?

BTW, How many hours do the contestants exercise per day?

Jillian You Go Girl!!! Black is definately winning this one!

Jillian You Go Girl!!! Black is definately winning this one!

Bob,

You have saved my life. I have lost 65 pounds over the past two years after watching the Biggest Loser for the first time and seeing you motivate the contestants. I believe in myself and I owe the motivation to make the change to you.

Thank you for helping me get my life back. You help so many more people than you'll ever even know. God bless you.

Kirk

HOW DO YOU VOTE?????????

Jillian, you are awesome! I am a member of your website and I so enjoy the new recipes, the exercise program and just everything about it. My question is I want to lose more weight a week than 2 lbs, I know its normally taboo to do that but its my goal. Is it safe to exercise four hours a day?

Hey Bob & Jillian!!
Love the show – I blame my mother for getting me addicted. I’ve been struggling for the past year or so to lose my “college weight” which is about 35+ pounds. I’ve tried other “diet” programs, hiring a personal trainer, etc. but nothing seems to work for me. I really been struggling with stress in my life as well although it has somewhat diminished recently. I was hoping you could give me some pointers/work-out plans/nutrition plan to follow. Thanks!!

VOTE FOR MARK TO GIVE THE GIRLS A CHANCE?!?!?! Has anyone done the calculations? If Roger has more to lose than Mark, shouldn't we vote for Mark to be in the finale to give the girls a better chance of winning???

Is it always seven days between weigh ins or is it sometimes more? That was a TON of weight they lost this weigh in. You guys are amazing, such inspirations!

Thanks so much for this show. THANK YOU for Jillian coming back SHE ROCKS

Ok- so are we voting for a person to be elimated or for a person to be part of the final 3???? Important clarification!!

GO ALI!!!! You can do it :) You have inspired me and and opened my eyes to so many things!

VOTE FOR MARK SO THE GIRLS HAVE A BETTER CHANCE AT THE FINALE!!! THE GIRLS ROCKED IT OUT TONIGHT!!!

I am 5' 10" and weigh 435 lbs I was wondering what work out routines you suggest i start with?

Do you think the challenges favored the guys rather than the women? Namely - running challenges?

Bob I absolutely love you! If i could have one life long wish it would be to have you as my personal trainer for a day but since I cant have that would you please call me and give me some encouragement on losing weight cause i really need it right now! 208-275-9119

Ok- so are we voting for a person to be elimated or for a person to be part of the final 3???? Important clarification!!

WTG Ladies!!! Aly mentioned tonight something that got to me...its a mental game and you cant hide behind the fat and bad habits. How do you mentally change when nothing around you is changing? How do you force yourself to exercise? How do you change the negative mental attitude about your body?

I think ali should win she is the reason kelly got so far!! WE LOVE YOU GIRLS AND ALL BIGGEST LOSER CONTESTANTS

Jillian,
I looove you. I'm 17 and you've motivated me to get into shape for good.

It is impossible for them to lose that kind of weight the last week without some kind of drug/supplement....what did they take

Have either of you got any advice for me? I am 19 and the mother of an 8 month old. During my pregnancy, I gained 70 pounds. I've lost all but 20 and I have reached a plateau. Can you give me some advice on how to lose my last 20? I really need help!

I Know I need to lose weight at least 80 pounds but I have asthma. I know it's not an excuse and I'm tired of using it as one. What do you recommend for someone with severe asthma who's doctors want me to lose weight to better my health.

I am 11 weeks pregnant and would like to work out safely so I can be healthy for my baby and I. Do you have any tips for working out while pregnant?

This one is for either Bob or Jillian:

Are you two going to make a Biggest Loser workout dvd with the contestants from this season? That would be sweet!!

Jillian and Bob,
First of all thank you both for all the great assistance that you have given those you have worked with for growth and change. I hope that they continue on their journey healthily.
As for me, I have a labral tear in my hip. I have gained 25 lbs from the experience. I have lost 10 lbs of that 25lbs just watching my nutrition. Since January 1st. I struggle to exercise as the injury affects so many muscle groups. I have been trying to walk between 1-2 miles a week to minimize the stress on my muscles. I am trying to find weight routines for my upper body to assist me. Can you suggest anything to assist me? I’m used to being very active and I was a runner before the injury. I’m not much of a swimmer so that is not an option. I look forward to hearing from you.
Kim

What do you guys think about having the girls beat out the guys in the final weigh-in before the finale? Do you think that we are going to finally have a female Biggest Loser this season?

Hello! I am a mother of 3 with my newest only being 5 months old. I can't complain much I am only a size 10 weighing 150 pounds. My concern is that I have a very unattractive lower waist line. I honestly look like a muffin top. Can you tell me the best exercise that will help to flatten my lower abdominal area? I appreciate the help!!!!

Hey guys! I luv the show and i absolutely luv you JILLIAN! i have 2 questions. The first is DO YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS ABOUT RECOVERING FROM BULIMIA? i am 16 and am just starting the recovery process. my second question is HAVE YOU EVER CONSIDERED DOING A TEEN VERSION OF BIGGEST LOSER?
Thanks guys for all that you do!

Hi - I lost 80 pounds two years ago and have been able to keep the weight off, thank goodness. My question is, how do you get over seeing yourself as the old person and not the new more fit person. I look in the mirror and still see the overweight person. When do I get to enjoy the new me?

I believe Jullian needs to watch her langage It made me sick how she talked on the show and I believe the produces need to put a stop to this . My teenage daughter was watching and she (jullian) really downgrades the show and I have been a fan from day one

Do you think Ali has a chance to win, she is thin now. How much more weight can she lose?
What about Kelly?

how do you get on the show? i would love to see a season of kids with their parents on the show so they can learn together. i would love to sign up for that.

I am a 23 year old female. I am 5'3" and weigh 150 lbs. I used to weigh 138 lbs but have gained the weight in the past year. I have been exercising 3x a week since August and watching my calories but I can't make the weight go away. I've been stuck at 150 for months now and I'm getting so unmotivated. Do you have any suggestions? Please help!

I have a very hard time losing weight. I'm stressed and tired all the time. I am upset most of the time. What do I do?

Oh, and Kelly and Ali, you both ROCK!!!

You two are just fabulous! How I would love to be able to work with you. I am 47, weight 251 lbs. I have type 2 diabetes and blockage in one cardiac artery. I am on large doses of insulin because I am so insulin resistant. This causes weight gain and difficulty to loose it. It is like a "Catch 22" Do you have any ideas for me, because I am getting very frustrated. Thanks

i had thyroid cancer last june they removed my thyroid now i have trouble lossing weight and a lot less energy do you have any suggestion

I have a very hard time losing weight. I'm stressed and tired all the time. I am upset most of the time. What do I do?

Oh, and Kelly and Ali, you both ROCK!!!

Good Job Ali and Kelly! I want a girl to win. Jillian how do you suggest to sticking with a healthy lifestyle. I go 2 weeks then give up. What do you suggest?

I am 24 y/o 6'0" and I'm at my heaviest I've been my whole life. I started out at 187 but now at 179. I seem to have hit a plateau. Is there anything you can suggest that I should do?

I'm a 48 yr old college student and I've had bad knees all my life. At 37 I had a child, who at 10 is over 100 lbs. Dad is also 300 lbs. WE NEED HELP! Recipes from this season look great- where can I find them and any suggestions on the best exercise for a 10 yr. old- PE @ school is useless once a week usually just playing. And with 4 to 5 hrs of homework each day its hard to find time for exercise. Love You!

I love your show. I makes we want to get up and lose the 300 pounds or more. I have several health issues that prevent me from being able to go a lot of exercises. I am 48 years old and have to have both my knees replace due to a genetic disease. I currently work full time and attend school full time. I go into the doctors every 3 months to have injections in my knees. Two years ago the doctor told me I need to lose weight which I have lost 30 pounds. Just last month he told me I could have my knees replaced anytime know instead of waiting till I get older. I graduate next year and then will consider the surgeries. My question is what kind of exercise can I do that does not put any pressure on the knees since my knees do not bend far enough to even ride a bike and I am unable stand longer than 10 minutes at a time since I am bone on bone in the knees. I would like to do some exercises but have no ideas of what I can do.

YES!!!! Jill your girls did it!! Way to go!!!

Jillian, I just want to say that although you are a tough cookie, you are an amazing motivator. A general question. What sort of diet and exercise regimen might you suggest for you average healthly Jane Doe? There are so many of us who are in shape who just need advice about healthy foods or good cardio workouts.

=]
You are amazing.

I have been watching Biggest Loser since the beginning and love the show. My husband and I have talked about me going but I have told him I could not leave him and the boys because I feel they need me to much to leave. I have an 8 yr old and a 2 yr old. I really don’t trust to many people with my boys and we don’t live near family that could help out. So instead I finally joined a gym 3 weeks ago because I know that I need to lose weight and become healthier for my boys. My question is I know that I need to eat 1800 calories to lose weight but how can I figure out how many calories I am burning with my workouts and my everyday activities?

Thanks
Good Luck Ali and Kelly

I just wanted to say thank you to both trainers for what they have done. The show has made me be the best person I can be and help me lose the weight.

i want ali to win!!! i think that she is the reason kelly got so far......way to go girls!!!!!

How tall are the final four and what are their ideal weights?

JILLIAN!!!! YOU ARE AMAZING and I can't even begin to tell you how highly I think of you. I admire everything you are! LOVE YOU BABY!!!! =)

This question is for Jillian,

I would like to GAIN at least 20 lbs. I have a rare genetic condition known as Nail Patella Syndrome (NPS), which makes weight gain very difficult. Over the years, I have tried to slow my metabolism down by practicing many of the bad habits that you see among biggest loser contestants. This has not worked for me, and all the junk food I have been eating over the years is slowly starting to take its toll (e.g. frequent IBS attacks, fatigue etc). I am turning 40 this year and want to adopt a healthier lifestyle but at the same time, I do NOT want to lose weight. Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated! I wish your website offered a weight gain as well as a weight loss program, however I know that I am in the minority.

P.S. Exercise has always been somewhat difficult for me as my muscles; tendons and ligaments seem to be misaligned due to the NPS. I do not want to have to pay for an MRI to determine the configuration of my joints just to undertake an exercise program, so perhaps you could recommend some exercises. I have been told that kenetic close chain connect exercises are best but I have no idea what these are. The last time I undertook an exercise regime to bulk up (18 years ago) my legs became even thinner, perhaps being a side affect of also having less muscle on my arms and legs than people without NPS. Therefore, I have consigned myself away to living a very sedentary lifestyle. Thanks in advance for you help.

MARK STOP CRYING AND BE A MAN! You have won all the challenges let someone else win the finale! Go KELLY!!!

i've become more active but am having trouble with my eating...i don't know how to start the eating smaller meals...what is a smaller meal...thank you for all you do

Why do the brothers cry so much?

I've been working out and wonder if I should wear support to help with the "flapping" skin?? Does the support help or hinder since I'm not using my own muscles?? Please help!

How do you handle people with back and knee problems? The workouts seem so extreme.

Because of the Biggest Loser, I have been able to stop smoking and I am now working out everyday. I promised my son that I would quit and get healthy for him before he lost his battle with leukemia and this show has pushed me to go for it because I watched every week this season and seeing the contestants succeed has shown me that it can be done and I can keep the promise that I made to Aaron. Thank you to Ali for her wonderful attitude...you are my angel!!!

Jillian you are amazing. I hear your voice in my head when I work out. Ali is an inspiration and I am going to bust my ass to finally get to my goal weight. You go girl!!

My frustration level is unbelievable.

Dearest Jilian:

You are amazing!!! You have been a great inspiration for me in the last 2 seasons of the BL. The energy and enthusiam you give every Tuesday is mind blowing. Thank You!!!

Hi Jillian and Bob-
Let me first say You guys are awesome- But I need your help -I love what you are doing for overweight people around the world, myself being one of them- I am a 29 year old stay at home mom of 2 ages 2 and 5 and let me say I am to young to feel this crappy- I weight 220 and am 5’8. I feel like I am stuck in a terrible rut- I have lost myself and put myself aside and I do not know how to put me on the list again I sit there and watch you guys with your “teams” and cry I only wish I had someone to push and teach me like you have for your teams- I know I need to lose weight not only for myself but for my kids too- I see how my 5 year old is struggling with her weight and that is all my doing – I know you always say there is something underlying to why over weight people are the way they are. I only wish I could figure mine out. I do not know who this person is anymore when I look in the mirror. I love my family and know I am loved but they just cannot give the push that I need - I have thought several times about trying out and know that the money is not the reason for doing it, the reason is to get healthy so my kids have a happy healthy mom and they are healthy too.
I know that you cannot help every person that writes you for help but:
If there was one thing you could tell me what would be? Any and all help would be great- or if you want a blob of molding clay to mold into something let me know- thanks for taking the time to even read this -

Hello Jillian and Bob,

I wish I couldtake the time to beon the BL. I am working on my own just watching calories so far. Due to a work injury exercise is not possible at this time. Although physical therapy is work. My question is I am 5 ft nothing and weigh 248 lbs (I have lost 12 lbs in 4 weeks) how many calories do I need minimum to lose at a steady rate? I am currently trying less than 1000.

Best Loser Finale EVER!!!!
You go Girls!!!! Let's remember people only positive things about the contestants please!!! They have shared probably the most difficult journey in their lives with us!!! Vote for who you want, but don't bad mouth any of them!!!!!!!
Thanks Jillian Thanks Bob- you guys have changed my life through the past 5 years!!!!!

wow, I wish I had the courage to do what these contestants do. How do they get the motivation?
great season

Wow what a great twist to let America vote - Roger or Mark - hmmmmm.....

Bob - I got to meet you here in Tampa on Fri and you were so awesome with everyone!

Hey there Bob and Jillian. I've read on here about others with back problems wanting to lose weight, and I wish to be one of those. The only problem is I have a big disability to overcome and even though I do diet I can't really exercise very well. Do you have any suggestions for someone who wants to lose close to 100 pounds but can't exercise the way I see you guys do it on the show. I have knee issues that I'm getting worked out by with a doctor and back problems but I don't want to be overweight any more. And no my problems didn't come from the weight, the weight came from the injurgies that I've suffered; but the weight doesn't help at all.
Thank you so much for doing what you do for America and all the world.
Sammie

WOW! GO ALI and KELLY! This has been the best season ever!

Jillian, your new dvd "shred", how are you supposed to tier it? Noone can figure it out? 10 days on level 1, 10 on level 2 and final 10 days on #3? Is one 20 minute workout a day sufficient if you need to lose 10lbs? we are all out here dying to know!!!! and we love the dvd, by the way!!!!keep them coming! thanks!

I've been sitting here in the floor tonight just watching the show. It's incredible. I have cried and just want to say how much i've enjoyed this season. I think Ali will win. My question I'm 55 years and lost 35 lbs in about 4 months. It's been 9 months and I'm at a stand sill. How do I lose the last 10?
I lost the first 35 in 4 months and have been at a stand still now for 5 months.
Thanks for your time and for all the tips and health lessons that your show has taught. Looking forward to the finale. Thanks. Judy

You guys are THE BEST! I'm addicted to this show and shed the tears right along w/ everyone! Tomorrow, 4/9, will be 5 years since I had Gastric Bypass surgery and I have lost and kept off 135 pounds. I have been at the same weight for 2 years and need a way to kick start the weight loss again. I can't find anything to kick in for me. I'm 31, 5'7 and 195. I appreciate any and all advice. I cannot tell you how much you guys are appreciated!

Thanks,
Renea Jax, FL

Hi i am 18 years old. I weigh 230lbs! This scares me!! Your show inspires me i wont miss one episode! I dont make enough money to just go out and buy all the healty food healty food seems more expensive then the bad food. I try to exercise and get soo exhausted soo quickly

i've become more active, but still haven't got my diet where it needs to be...is there any advise you can give me...i eat large meals instead of small ones...thank you for all you do...

Ali is leading in the percentage of weight loss right now. Give Roger a chance! He deserves it!

Hey guys!!!

I wanna know your favorite song/cd to work out to...

Bob and Jillian,
Just wanted you to know that my husband, daughters 5 & 9, haven't missed a show all season- you're awesome trainers, can't wait for next season.

I have no weight issues but this show has helped me to realize the true change of life this show has on the contestants.

I just want to say that I love you Jillian. You are the best at what you do and I hope that you continue to encourage others as you have encouraged me. God bless you. You rock!!!

Go, GIRLS!!! I'm so very proud of Kelly, Ali, & Jillian!!

On the show you said the water is essential to rid the body of latic acid, toxins, etc... How much water do the contestants drink to survive daily 4-6hr workouts??? I am sore for days after working out normally.

Hi I weigh a big 265 I eat lots of fruits and veggies and work out at the gym and have not lost a pound please help me.

Biggest Loser is the only thing I watch on TV apart from sports. It's a great Show a real show.

I just want to say that I love you Jillian. You are the best at what you do and I hope that you continue to encourage others as you have encouraged me. God bless you. You rock!!!

I just want to say that I love you Jillian. You are the best at what you do and I hope that you continue to encourage others as you have encouraged me. God bless you. You rock!!!

First of all, Jillian, I love you and your attitude!

My question is this. I have lost 88 lbs and am now 131 @ 5'5" which is a good weight, I did it with a healthy diet and exercise, but I still have loose skin and fat around my mid-section, thighs, and upper arms. I have been working with weights and resistance training for about 6 months now at home, and those areas are better, but how do I correct those problems?
Everyone says I look awesome, but it is hard to let myself enjoy it because of this.

God Bless you and thank you for all you do!

I have no weight issues but this show has helped me to realize the true change of life this show has on the contestants.

Hi I weigh a big 265 I eat lots of fruits and veggies and work out at the gym and have not lost a pound please help me.

i think roger should get to stay. mark has fell below the line lots of times. this is the first time roger has fell below. mark was already booted out of the house once, but was brought back in by luck. roger has been fighting at the biggest loser camp since day 1. whoo hoo go roger!!!

Hi Bob and Jillian!

You guys rock! I'm wondering who you think deserves to win the online vote and make it to the finals, Mark or Roger.

One thing to anyone who is reading this. Please stop making fun of Mark for crying. This is a crazy, stressful time in his life and all of his emotions are building up. I'd like to see all of you that are making fun of him go through these 15 insane weeks and not shed a tear. I dare you. :D

I agree that Mark cries to much and ruins the show. Send him home!!!

Go girls!!!!!!!!! After Bob weighted the teams like he did was was great to see the two girls finish in safety zone. How incredible the weight loss is for all of them and I wish them al the best in their lives and thank you for the inspiration. Girls year this year sorry Roger

Love the show and never miss a week. Have struggled all my life on and off with my weight and right now the fight is on. I hear the recommendation for the Quaker Weight Control Oatmeal weekly and when I shop I notice the caloric intake is more that that than Quaker Oatmeal Lower Sugar. What is the difference or the best one~~I stay so confused!

One of my thighs is noticibly larger than the other. In fact, there is an extra pocket of fat on the larger thigh that can be seen if I am wearing pants that are tight (like work out pants). Is there anything I can do to target that one area?

Come on... Rog has lost 144 pounds. He and Ali are neck and neck. If Ali wins, I want it to be because she truly is the BIGGEST loser. Vote for Roger. He and Ali are already the biggest losers on campus!

I want to see a girl with this season. so I guess I have to vote for mark, even though I think Roger should be there since he lost more.

Come on... Rog has lost 144 pounds. He and Ali are neck and neck. If Ali wins, I want it to be because she truly is the BIGGEST loser. Vote for Roger. He and Ali are already the biggest losers on campus!

Female Biggest Loser!

I quit smoking 10 weeks ago. I gained weight in my bottom and my breast. How do I lose the weight around my stomach and not the other area I'm happy with?

I've been sitting here in the floor tonight just watching the show. It's incredible. I have cried and just want to say how much i've enjoyed this season. I think Ali will win. My question I'm 55 years and lost 35 lbs in about 4 months. It's been 9 months and I'm at a stand sill. How do I lose the last 10?
I lost the first 35 in 4 months and have been at a stand still now for 5 months.
Thanks for your time and for all the tips and health lessons that your show has taught. Looking forward to the finale. Thanks. Judy

This question is for Jillian,

I would like to GAIN at least 20 lbs. I have a rare genetic condition known as Nail Patella Syndrome (NPS), which makes weight gain very difficult. Over the years, I have tried to slow my metabolism down by practicing many of the bad habits that you see among biggest loser contestants. This has not worked for me, and all the junk food I have been eating over the years is slowly starting to take its toll (e.g. frequent IBS attacks, fatigue etc). I am turning 40 this year and want to adopt a healthier lifestyle but at the same time, I do NOT want to lose weight. Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated! I wish your website offered a weight gain as well as a weight loss program, however I know that I am in the minority.

P.S. Exercise has always been somewhat difficult for me as my muscles; tendons and ligaments seem to be misaligned due to the NPS. I do not want to have to pay for an MRI to determine the configuration of my joints just to undertake an exercise program, so perhaps you could recommend some exercises. I have been told that kenetic close chain connect exercises are best but I have no idea what these are. The last time I undertook an exercise regime to bulk up (18 years ago) my legs became even thinner, perhaps being a side affect of also having less muscle on my arms and legs than people without NPS. Therefore, I have consigned myself away to living a very sedentary lifestyle. Thanks in advance for you help.

Bob,

Your book is awesome. Thank you. I loved your buzzcut that you used to have... any chance you'll cut it again for the finale?

We need a Biggest Loser for single parents, with childcare provided so that those of us with the problem of time and money can have the opportunity too!!

Bob and Jillian,

I am 290lbs. It is no longer a matter of losing weight to stay healthy, it is a matter of losing weight to live. I am on meds for high b/p, thyroid, and Type II diabetes. I also take meds for a rapid resting heart rate, which brings me to my question. How do I know what exercises to do with a resting heart rate of 120 when a target heart rate is so important? I have my doctors orders to get the weight off or die, but where do I start? By the way, what you guys do is amazing.

Thank you

I agree that Mark cries to much and ruins the show. Send him home!!!

how hard do you have to work to loose 11 lbs in one week? is it safe? can you help me with a safe workout. i work out at least 4 times a week.

Hello! I am a mother of 3 with my newest only being 5 months old. I can't complain much I am only a size 10 weighing 150 pounds. My concern is that I have a very unattractive lower waist line. I honestly look like a muffin top. Can you tell me the best exercise that will help to flatten my lower abdominal area? I appreciate the help!!!!

I am losing my life. I can see you can help me save it. Do you have a book or tapes. I am a depressed functioning agoraphobic who believes what you have shown is possible as I only need to lose less than 100 lbs. to live. Thank you for the hope.

hello, how do u get started with the diet and exercises??

Bob and Jillian,
I really desire to lose weight but it seems to be so hard for me. I have noone who really believe in me and i don't even believe in me. I watch the show faithfully and all i can think is i wish that was me. if you have some advice for me. I have tried to eat a little healthier but the cost to eat healthy is so much than i can even afford. so i gave up on that as well. so if you guys have some suggestions for me.

thanks

You both Rock! What is the worst of 2 situations? Saving my back because of disk degeneration or working hard to get the weight off? I think I know the answer. What kind of excersise is best for disk degeneration issues. Thanks for the encouragement thru the show!

Love the show! have two qustions. first I'm 5'3/4" what should I weigh? Second my daughter is 10 and weighs 79 pounds should she be worried cause she is?

I walk 2 miles every morning and 2 miles every afternoon, will I burn MORE calories if I run 1 mile instead of walking 2? Is it okay to do strength training everyday?

i am awesome...i hope roger wins, he is the greatest person to walk this earth...hopefully mark doesnt cry if he reads this....go markie pooo

Jill,
You have given me the courage to change my life in a very big way. I feel like an important part of this cathartic journey is to share my story with you. Is there any way I can do that without all of America hearing it? Thanks.

YOU ROCK!
Julie

I think what Biggest Loser is doing is awesome. I've been praying for these contestants, and I think these folks are amazing. They are brave and inspiring to say the very least. Thank you to the trainers who push them so hard. Bless all of you. All glory to God.

Jillian we love you and you are by far our favorite from season one. We need and want to work out with you and get our lives back. How can we do that? Help us out. One question when will they allow children under 18? we wanted to do the couples bt couldn't because of the age.

i eat pretty healthy try to fit exercise in even if it is just 15 minutes. but how to i get into a regular routine with a very active life with work/2 chidren/and alot of volunteer work and no me time except late at night. i watch the biggest loser every week while i walk on the treadmill. i want to lose 100lbs. i thin this show is so moving. jillian and bob arer great. i need someone like you with me every day. thanks for what you do

I would love to see you all do something with seniors--55 plus. I felt for Ali's mom--we do have trouble with the workouts being so fast. But some of us are really at risk!!

This is pretty hokey, but has NBC ever tossed around the idea of a celebrity Biggest Loser?

way to go ali and kelly! a girl needs to win! voting for roger to go!

Dearest Jilian:

You are amazing!!! You have been a great inspiration for me in the last 2 seasons of the BL. The energy and enthusiam you give every Tuesday is mind blowing. Thank You!!!

What are Kelly and Ali's ideal weight?
How tall are they?

Hi Jillian & Bob,

I'm a 37Y woman, and I have gained 35+ pounds since November when I began chemotherapy and prednisone treatments. I'm relatively active, and watch what I eat, but regardless of what I do, I can't seem to stop the weight gain or bring it down. Any suggestions on losing weight when there are pharmaceutical interventions involved?

Thanks!

keep mark send roger home

GO ALI AND KELLY YOU ROCK!!!!

Hi Guys! I want 2 tell yous that i love you both...your heart & spirit! I wish there was a Canadian BL.
My question....I have an underactive thyroid, I'm on meds & my #'s are in the norm, however i still find it REALLY hard 2 lose the pounds...PLZ can u give me some pointers.
I love working out! So give it 2 me LOL!!!
Thx a bunch lots of Love Penny!!! xoxox

i learned that weight loss surgery was not the answer and would love to be on the show. i have 100 to go and have been stuck on same numbers for 3 mons.

I love the show and would really like to see a girl win. GO ALI!!!

The challenges are not created equal. Why dosent someone fix that on the show?

vote mark because if roger gets in he will win. lets see a girl win this season..come on girls out there....

Jillian and Bob,
The show is amazing what you are able to do for people is great. Any chance the two of you will do a spin off show for people like me who are average size but cant find a way to get ripped but have the potential? I would totally be a participant.
Thanks,
Kandace

How soon after eating a meal should you work out?

Jill,
I want you to know that you've given me the courage to take control and change my life in a really big way. I feel like an important part of this cathartic journey is to share my story with you. Is there any way I can do that within all of American hearing it? Thanks!

Hello Bob and Jillian,

I have missed the last two times to enter for the biggest loser and have been so sick because of it. Every time I try to enter, I would just go so blank when it would come to the video. I just could not bring myself to tape myself. I am watching tonight with tears wishing it were me and how I want to feel so proud of myself how I want so bad to lose this fat!

I know I need direction and to be in a atmosphere where I can focus on me. You see, I have gained 120lbs over the last 6 years and I am a 5'4" female who weighs 278lbs. I have not always been heavy but have been up and down, just not this big. If I may tell you how I came to be so heavy.

In short; I had a home built; first stress trigger, lost job started another; second stress trigger, moved less than a year later to take a relationship to the next level, to a place with no family; third stress trigger, another job. You see he was a youth pastor and I couldn't ask him to move. Finally, he asked me to marry. I did my own wedding planning and did all the invitations and programs and only had two weeks to plan and get married before we moved again. He was to attend Andrews University, fourth stress trigger. Shortly after the move I was informed my sister had cancer, stage four colon that had spread to her liver; fifth stress trigger. I was diagnosed with adrenal burn-out and suffered from bouts of depression therefore developed emotional eating.

I just turned 45 years old on April 2nd and have come a long way to see the sun again, but what is holding me down now, my weight. I do not know how to work out or even to begin. I have missed the last two chances to enter and am praying somehow I will be able to enter. I think you have closed the openings already though. I guess what I am asking is what or how do I get started? Help me please; I want to be me again! I want to be here for my 12 year old daughter, I am so scared because I have a lot of belly fat. Can you please help me?

Bob & Jillian,
I would love to get back into working out so that I can lose weight again. I am recovering from an OATS procedure on my left knee in September, and getting ready to go under the knife again for my right knee. I am not sure what they will do until the dr. gets in there.
What can I do to get started again?
Tina Matthews-Price

We're supposed to be able to vote tonight for who goes home, but I can't find a place TO vote.

I love this show everytime I watch it I want to jump up and work out, i am only a few pounds over weight but you guys keep me on the right track, god bless you all

What happens to the contestants excess skin after losing a lot of weight? Does is "snap back" or do they have to have it surgically removed?

Dearest Jilian:

You are amazing!!! You have been a great inspiration for me in the last 2 seasons of the BL. The energy and enthusiam you give every Tuesday is mind blowing. Thank You!!!

Jillian...love the work you do ...you are awesome!!! I battle with my weight as well, I have a slow metabolism and could use any suggestions you have..And I hope A woman finally gets the Biggest Loser!!!

Bob & Jillian, I also have an underactive thyroid. Any suggestions for nutrition and working out. I also have trouble losing weight.

Hello mynmae is Ruby Hawks I watch the show every year, and i do enjoy it alot. But i would really like to get on the show, i really need to lose what weight i have so if you can please let me know how i can get on the show. Thank You Ruby Hawks

Roger....ROLL TIDE ROLL!im voting for you!Bama loves you!

Dearest Jilian:

You are amazing!!! You have been a great inspiration for me in the last 2 seasons of the BL. The energy and enthusiam you give every Tuesday is mind blowing. Thank You!!!

I have watched BL since the beginning. I have to tell you this season has without a doubt inspired me the most. I myself have applied to be on the next season. Whether I am chosen or not, I WILL change my life. Thank you all for putting yourselves out there for all of America to see. And Bob and Jillian thank you for everything! Ali, you have by far touched me the most!! Good luck next week! I'm behind you all the way!!

I have never had a problem with my weight until I turned 34. It is nothing more than about 15 extra pounds now...but I know that if I don't start exercising and eating right...it will get out of hand.

I have a full time job and family which equals very limited time. What is the best way to start so that exercise is productive, manageable and consistent?

Jillian...YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!
Bob...you're not so bad yourself...but...you've got to get those boys to stop crying;)!

One pound, that is what the season has been about and the last few months for me.
I had my son 16 months ago and have steadily been losing weight. However, I am stuck on one pound, I can't get seem to lose it and get on with losing more weight. Any suggestions?

Go Roger! I would like to know why you do not have mini camps for those of us who need to lose only fifty to a hundred pounds and need the controlled environment such as the house. Some of us can't take three or four months off work but could benefit from the discipline of "The House"

WOW!!! Go Kelly & Ali - how terrific was that. I can't wait to vote. It must have been amazing to know you have both helped changed so many lives. Love the show!! Tell us your favorite moments!

Keep up the food work girls. I am so excited to see the first woman biggest loser! I hope Mark joins the ladies in the finals. Bob and Jillian you are AWESOME! I wish I could hire you as my trainers.

I want to lose 100 lbs but become overwhelmed with it. Any suggestions???? I love the show.

Go Girls! And Roger- Pride on 3!
Will you guys host a boot camp or training sessions around the country? I need to lose at least 20 lbs, and have done so before, but put it right back on. I would love to take advantage of your skills and knowledge to get the weight off and keep it off. Please let me know!!!

Jillian and Bob,

What is the best way to lose weight around your midsection, without doing exercises that cause your body to plateau?

I am eternally grateful to you both. I have lost 80 pounds, and am 20 pounds from my goal weight.

Thank you!

I know that this season Bob felt a connection to Trent right away and Jillian was close to Brittany,I was wondering from all the season from both America and Austraila, is there one contestant that you feel has either changed you or that you feel you are closest with?

Love the show and never miss a week. Have struggled all my life on and off with my weight and right now the fight is on. I hear the recommendation for the Quaker Weight Control Oatmeal weekly and when I shop I notice the caloric intake is more than Quaker Oatmeal Lower Sugar. What is the difference or the best one~~I stay so confused!

I will turn the big 5-0 at the end of the year and would LOVE to be 40-50 lbs. lighter!!!

I recently started a robotics exercise class and was wondering what your opinion is about robotics? I want to lose at least 118 pounds. I have recently picked up eating canned fruit and love it. I drain all the syrup out and eat just the fruit so I'm not getting all the extra sugar.

Roger deserves to be at the finale. Ali is leading at this point! Give Roger a chance to finish.

Why can't there be a teenager's biggest loser? I'm 15 and overweight and I can't can't lose anything despite being in Track & Field. I could use some help, as I'm sure other teens could

Bob or Jillian,

Would you tell us when the week 15 weigh in was? It will be exciting to see what the final results are.

I have a 6 month old baby and need help losing the 30+ pounds I now have. But dont have alot of time to myself.....What can I do with the little time I have and see results?

Jullian I have type 2 diabetes and renal failure. Which dvd of yours do you suggest for begginers? I love your work and it shows you care. I would love your help. please help.

How unfair that finally women are at the top of the chain and they don't get to kick out the man that could beat them both.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

whos all votin for roger?

How unfair that finally women are at the top of the chain and they don't get to kick out the man that could beat them both.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MARK IS A CRY BABY HE RUINS THE SHOW

BOO HOO

How unfair that finally women are at the top of the chain and they don't get to kick out the man that could beat them both.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am a 70 year old male recovering from osteomylitis of the spine. I swim for an hour 3 days a week and ride a bicycle for 30 minutes 3 days a week. I have lost 42 pounds so far but would like to know what else I can do to help me loose my weight,

I want to "Thank You" both for what you have done for America. I am motivated to get up, exercise everyday, and eat healthy. You are the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bob and Jillian: Would you ever consider doing a teen biggest loser? I am not overweight, but it would be great to see people my age doing the same thing that adults have done on the show. The teens could change and learn earlier in their lives.

So I eat relatively healthy, but I can only take so much chicken and turkey! I don't like seafood so that's not really an option for me. Is there a cookbook that you guys absolutely love or that you recommend because I need new healthy recipes and there are so many out there that I don't trust! Help me and the thousands of others who are sick of the same food, prepared the same way!

Thanks,
Stace

PS. Way to go with the contestants this season! I get remotivated every week by you guys being hard@$$e$! Thanks!

How tall is Ali?

Jillian,
Love the show and love your training. I live in the midwest and the treadmill gets boring in the winter. What can you suggest to get the workout and alleviate the treadmill tedium?

For my job I stand on my feet ALL day, sometimes at least 6 hours straight, and I ache all over when the day is done. Is there anything (stretches? Vitamins?) you could recommend that will help with my sore muscles at the end of a long day? Thanks so much.

hi! I have a few question im 24 have 4 kids and need to lose about 20-25 lbs. I've really been struggling! Ive went from weight watchers to Atkins... etc. Dont really have alot of money! Any suggestions on what I could do far as excersice and eating? Mainly something I could do from home!! I really am deppressed about the way I look. Its took its toll on me. emailing me would be better. bland.ashley@yahoo.com

When are they going to figure out ways to level the playing field for the challenges. Kelly vs. Mark in a weight carrying and running challenge - yeah that's fair.

Jillian,
Love the show and love your training. I live in the midwest and the treadmill gets boring in the winter. What can you suggest to get the workout and alleviate the treadmill tedium?

I have lost 64 pounds since I had surgery on my cervical spine last April and now I am down to the last 43 pounds. I live in pain with my neck and facing another surgery. I am still working out even in the pain but live on morphine 30mg and extra strengh vicodin and my weight is not moving so does these drugs hinder my weight at because I have stop others that did and wondered if this is the reason or not working because of pain and really afraid right now that when I lift weights that I will send that disc into my spine more and paralyze myself. I was a member of your site the last 3 months but did not rejoin because you exercises require so much jumping and i can not do that and really seem lost right now and not wanting to regain all that I have already lost and acheived..shellie

Hey jillian,I have been watching the show since it has started and i wish i could be like the people on the show and lose the weight. i am 19 and I'm 5'2 and i weigh 160, i don't consider myself obese but i need to lose about 20 pounds to feel good about myself, and I also worry about diabetes because it runs in my family. If you could please give me some tips on how to get started to lose my weight i would be so happy
Thanks Sarah

I really like the show & it is great Alli & Kelly are in the final. I have one question i do not like or eat vegetables-what can i use in its place? thank you.

MARK IS A CRY BABY HE RUINS THE SHOW

Jillian- I have been trying to loose weight for soooo long!! I'm only 22 and obese- I try to loose weight but when I get frustrated I eat and say I don't care but I really do and want to loose it- I don't know how to reverse this habit!?

Thank you so much for you dedication and inspiration. I am a 23 yr old overweight wife, I have the same problem with pregnancy as Kelly so I know what she is going thru. I love the motivation I get from the show and use it throughout the week to help me keep going

Hi, I am a 4'11" person who should weigh about 115-120. since nov. i have lost from just under 200 - 137. the problem i am finding with the last 20ish lbs is i have severe fibromyalgia and can not excersice as you all reccomend. i am doing the following: ab machine 15-20 reps 1-2x a wk, body ball 10-15 min 1-2x a wk, min trampoline 10-15min 1-2x a wk. i have a bike but found it really hurts after useage. the bulk of the weight left is in my stomach, hips and rear. what can i do to finally get past this wall of 135ish and reach my goal? this will be the third time i've gotten this close but never all the way.. and just gain it back from the meds i'm on.. ty for any suggestions

I am 52, 121 lbs overweight, hypothyroidism, high BP and a road warrior. I don't have the luxury of a fridge or stove. Help! How do I loose weight?

I just wanted to start off by saying that I watch the show each and every week. I think that Roger, Mark, Kelly, and Ali are the four most strongest people that I have ever seen in my 30 years on this earth. I'm very proud of all of them.....KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK......I do have a question for you the trainers, I have a very very bad back because I'm very top heavy and I every time I go the the gym to workout I can not got out of my bed for 3 or 4 days. Is there anything I can do to stop my back from hurting so that i can lose all the wight that I have? I don't care if it takes you 3 months to get back to me but please try to get back to me and let me know.
Thank You So Much.....

Bob and Jillian – I never miss a show – I've been overweight my entire life – I've got a great personality and I love to laugh – sheesh..this sounds like a personal ad – what I'm wondering is – how can someone who has been big their entire life – get started losing like Kelley or Ali?? I look at them when they first started and that would be me – I have the gym membership, the will power to do it – but what is a normal diet??? I try to eat little meals during the day (i.e., fruit, low call snack bars) ... anything either of you could suggest would be so awesome – You both are fantastic and to have the opportunity like everyone on the show to work out with you – well, that would be a dream come true – god bless you both...

Jillian, How much do you work out a week, both cardio and strength training, to stay in the shape you are in?

Bob & Jillian,
With Diet being a key component to weight loss, how did you help the contestants with appetite suppression early on?

I've had lower back surgery for a herniated disc and would like suggestions for safe exercises. Love you guys. Your great!!!

Hi Bob and Jillian,
I am 47, had a hysterectomy a few years ago. I am on a small dose of hormone replacement. I also travel 3 out of 4 weeks a month. I am having trouble dropping the weight, any suggestions. You guys are amazing in the work you do.

Do you imagine ever doing a show for people that are older and have health problems because of their weight? I would love that. I could never do the exercises that you do on the show but I have all the same problems with food and self image. I want to live.

What eating pattern do you recommend for someone who works a unusual shift from 1200-2030. Thank you.

Go Girls! I'm so ready for female Biggest Loser.
GOOD LUCK!

By doing fitness videos,eating well and drinking water, can i lose weight?

What did you do differently with the girls this week?

i don't uunderstand how to vote...but we are voting for roger

Jillian,

Almost a year ago I had back surgery to replace my two lowest discs and fuse my spine there. I am walking, but this isn't getting rid of my belly fat. What can I do?

Lisa

I was told that I should lift more weight in smaller sets rather then lift lighter weight In larger sets. Is this correct? My daughter and I watch the show every week I love watching the changes the contestants go threw Thanks for what you do!!! YOU ARE AWESOME BOB AND JILLIAN WE LOVE YA!

If you have a herniated disk or pinched nerve, can you still exercise?

Ali and Kelly..you go girls..

Hey Jillian-As a member of your online plan, I think you are amazing and are an incredible encouragement. I'm down 51 pounds with PCOS and not moving the scale...any suggestions on getting the scale moving again? I work out to your DVD's 4 days a week and cardio day 1 day a week...29, 219, 5'6". Thanks!

Melissa

What kind of sneakers do the contestants wear that allow them to go from running outside to hiking to running on the treadmill? Do they change sneakers or do they have one pair that lets them do everything?

I want to thank you Jillian & Bob for getting me to get in gear with working out.
My issue is that I have trouble staying motivated and keeping my workout and gym routine going. Any advice? Please help.

I just think you are both AWESOME! You're not only changing bodies-you are saving lives! How many people can say they do that? I work out, I eat healthy...but am in a slump. I had surgery for an appendectomy and then I had to have surgery to remove scar tissue from that appendectomy-I just can't seem to get that extra push to lose the extra pounds. Any ideas? Thanks so much in advance!!

Hi,

I need to get on the biggest loser! I don't have anyone to enter with. Please tell me that I can still enter. I am over 300 pounds, I lost 95 pounds a year and a half ago, but I am back on the road to gaining it all back. I need your expertise and motivation; I need a big ass change in my life. Please help me!

How many calories do the contestants eat when they work out for hours and hours a day? Especially the women. How do they do it each week? I really want to know what Ali has done. What an amazing transformation!!!!! Please! I need to know!!!

does walking everyday, drinking plenty of water, and eating the right foods help to lose weight???
thanks...

I am 70 years old male and have gone through 7 back surgeries, prostate cancer surgery and radiation and gal bladder surgery in the last 7 years. I am currently recovering from osteomylitis of the spine. My question is what can I do to help burn off the fat. I swim for an hour 3 days a week and ride a recumbant bicycle three days a week for 30 minutes.

How did all the contestants lose soooo much weight this week without the trainers?

My cousin and I tried out in Columbus ohio a couple months ago But dont believe we made the cut. We both love Jillian. Bob is nice too. I have struggled with my weight for many years and want to know how to keep going sometimes I don't want to give up but seems like it is never going to go anywhere.

I first want to say I love the show. I love the way you both get involved with everyone especailly emotionally. Do you still keep in touch with any of the contestants?

My VOTE is for Mark. Maybe he will stop crying at home.

UNFAIR!!!! Why can't the girls vote off whom they want. We need a girl to WIN GO ALI.....

Way to go Ali, Kelly and Gillian!!!! Women can! Thanks for being inspiration to so many

I'm a big fan of the Biggest Loser. I'm not over weight but the show has inspired me to go out and get more excercise. I'm currently working on just toning my body, and cutting back on sweet and fatty foods so that my weight never becomes an issue. Good Luck to all of the contestants especially THE GIRLS.

is it better to go to the gym or buy home equipment and set up a routine?

Great job Jillian you Rock.

How could all 4 have lost so much weight the final week when people haven't lost that type of weight since the beginning? Plus, muscles weigh more than fat....how is this possible? Was it really 2 weeks worth of weight loss?

Why is it so hard to lose weight? Why is it even more harder for girls?

I'm a shredder!

How much real time is there between taping of week 15 and the finale - how many weeks will the contestants have to train at home?

Jillian you are my hero!!! Thanks for helping me lose weight. You are pretty much the only motivation Ive had these past weeks! I hope I can look as good as you one day

-Jennifer

I love this show BUT I wish the contestants were choosing the last person..they deserve that!

As for my question....I travel almost weekly for work. How can I eat well when I eat out more than I do at home!??

Thanks! You guys really are awesome!

Bob, will you marry me?

How did they lose so much weight in the final week? Was it their diets or the exercise? Please tell me what that diet was and the exercise.

Congrats to Ali and Kelly...You go girls.
I support you both!!!!

Hey Jillian and Bob! Man, what a surprise - in regards to the weight loss. Wow! Any way, whose idea was it to go "green" on BL this season and what all did this entail? What can we do at home to take it "green?"

I'm soooo envious of the experience you all had....done a great job!

I too want to know how to lose 15 pds safely in 1 week!

I'm a 30 yr old female, weighing in at 205 :(

Hey guys I love this show a lot. My wishes to all the contestants. All have lost a lot of weight and every single one of them should be proud of themselves. Good Luck Guys!!!

i need help i have a lap band. i have lost only 40 lbs in 2 yrs. trouble getting protein down. 100 more to go...

Jillian: Which contestant was the hardest to say goodbye to? and why?

What type of exercise will benefit the weight loss off of the belly?

Bob and Julian,

I love your show and watch it every week to see how good everyone is doing. I am from Kansas and we love our steak and potatoes or biscuits and gravy. My problem is that I hurt myself at work and now I am in chronic pain all the time. I have has two surgeries so far one to fuss my neck and one on my right shoulder. I was going to PT but then when my left arm started acting funny the doctor decided to stop PT until we can find out if I need surgery on it also. I love to run but now because of my neck not letting me look behind me I can not leave my house with out taking medicine so I will not have a panic attack. After my son was born I weighted 90 pounds, I do exercise and I do not over eat I just can not work as hard as I need too because I can not hold my body up with my arms. I have a BIG ball and a hula hoop but to use them I have to be on a good day. I am also thinking of getting a tummy tuck because all my weight is in the abdomen (I tell people I look like my butt just moved from the back to the front. The rest of me does not look bad my face, arms, upper body, and legs are very small just the abdomen is big. And I really love you show. Julian keep crying when you care for your people because it makes you not so military boot camp instructor.

Is there any chance either one of you, or both of you have a fitness or get in shape camp of weekend. Also I just wanted to say that I think both of you are great!!!

Bob will you marry me?

Bob, how the book signing going??

Jill, when are u coming to Nashville??? (Don't let Bob be the only one that gets a chance to meet me) lol
