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!

To Bob and Jillian

I just wanted to say hello and tell you both that you both are incredible people and show so much compassion and caring in your training.

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.

Jillian or Bob HELP I drive truck. you show everyone in a gym, I can't get to a gym,any ideas thanks you guys are great Joy

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

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

Do you eat ANY sugar at all and how often do you "cheat"?

How tall are each of the remaining contestents?

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?

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"

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

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.

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?

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

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!!!

r bob and jillian blogging yet?

r bob and jillian blogging yet?

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!!!

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!!

Does Ali have more weight to loose?

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?

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!!!!

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?

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!

Hey trainers
You guys are awesome and you have inspired me to be a persoanl trainer when I am older. Do u have ant tips that you could give me about personal training.
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

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.
Thanks for your inspiration!
Love, Faith

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

So Jillian- I'm 18, VERY athletic, competitive, relentless, aggressive, etc. I'm going to school next year to become a PE/Health teacher as well as a personal trainer! I have to do something I enjoy-and this is perfect for me! Do you have any tips for starting off as a pt? I honestly look up to you in more ways than you will ever know, so any tips would be wicked awesome =) I adore you. Thanks for all that you are!!! BLACK TEAM!!!!!

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!!

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

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?

Hey, Jillian & Bob
Do you have any tips preventing weight gain? I'm 22 and 130 pds 5'6. I've never had a problem with my weight, but lately I've started gaining weight and I really want to nip it in the bud.

Thanks
Good Luck Ali and Kelly

you all are the best and thank you for all you do.

Vote for Mark, so that the girls will dominate at the finale!

I have been on my weight loss journey for a long time. I am a Lifetime member of WeightWatchers, but I am not satisfied at my current weight. I weight 143 and I am 5'3". I want to be between 130-135. Also, I want to get rid of the extra belly fat. What are your suggestions? I love the Biggest Loser and I know that you are blessing people beyond belief by inspiring them to become healthier and live their lives!

Jillian,

Do you have a boyfriend or are you married and if not why not? My brother and all my guy friends think your hot

Bob and Jillian,

jillian, i am physically disabled, i have cerebral palsy, do you have any advice for me to exercise?

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 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

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!!

help I am a 46 year old woman weight 220lbs workout 5 days a week for an hour a day cardio 5 days a week weight training 3 days a week, I can swim 72 laps in an hour. and yet in 3 months have only lost 6 lbs! lots of inches but the pounds stick like glue what am I doing wrong! 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!!!

I have been on my weight loss journey for a long time. I am a Lifetime member of WeightWatchers, but I am not satisfied at my current weight. I weight 143 and I am 5'3". I want to be between 130-135. Also, I want to get rid of the extra belly fat. What are your suggestions? I love the Biggest Loser and I know that you are blessing people beyond belief by inspiring them to become healthier and live their lives!

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 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.

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?

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!
YOU ROCK!

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?

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.

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.

can yall do this for fat kids im11 and weigh 190 lbs. think about it

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!!!

I was wondering if there was a specific formula for weight training and cardio i.e. should i do cardio before or after my weight training when trying to lose fat and gain muscle?

can yall do this for fat kids im11 and weigh 190 lbs. think about it

what is the amount of time dedicated to exericse per day on the ranch?

How tall are Ali, Kelli, Mark and Roger?

What are their ideal weights according to charts?

I am wondering if Ali can lose enough weight in order to get the percentage of weight loss numbers to win.

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?

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.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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?
What is her ideal weight?

Hi
I would want to see Roger to go home. I would like Mark to stay. I love watching the show. Bob and Jillian you are the best and i hope that you are on the next season. When is the next season going to start up? Thank you Love the show and i keep watching it Mary

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,

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

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?

Bob, will you marry me?

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?

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

Bob and Jillian your the best!
I am 54, female and 30 lbs over weight. I walk 25 miles a week and work out 4 days a week and still cannot loose any weight. Nothing I seem to be doing helps... any help would be GREAT!

Jillian, how did you train all of your team members at once? Do you have any suggestions for a teen who is health conscious? You are an inspiration the way you encourage and train.

girls rule, boys drool!!!
yahoo ali and kelly!!

girls rule, boys drool!!!
yahoo ali and kelly!!

I noticed you doing a diffent cardio work out this season. Running as fast as you can go for 30 seconds, waitng 90 seconds, and then full out again for 30, doing the combination for 30 minutes. Do you feel this is more effective cardio for losing weight.

OMG Jillian YOU ROCK, BOTH GIRLS Above the Yellow Line... YES, YES, YES....

How in the world did the contestants lose so much weight in the final week? That was amazing. Was it their diets or the exercise? Tell me what that diet is and the what type of exercise they did?

OMG Jillian YOU ROCK, BOTH GIRLS Above the Yellow Line... YES, YES, YES....

OMG Jillian YOU ROCK, BOTH GIRLS Above the Yellow Line... YES, YES, YES....

roger is so cocky....

Everyone is looking fantastic - but the numbers tonight just floored me. I find myself concerned about Ali. She has lost SO MUCH weight - is she doing it safely and healthy? Is anyone concerned about her or others, that the losing-weight mindset will stick even when they're at a healthy weight and they'll be lured into an overexercising or eating disorder? I know I would find it hard to go from that strict lifestyle (on the ranch) back to normal life and not overdo it and lose too much weight.

Hey Bob and Jillian,
Do you think you'll ever do a biggest loser for people that are looking to lose weight-but, not obese. Im 5'4 and 170,I know thats not heavy enough to be on the show, but I could really use the help. Do you think that will ever be possible?

I NEED HELP!
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 it!

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?

Desperate,

Donna

I would LOVE the biggest loser to go international...bring the show to Canada..I'll win it!

I'm 5'0, 270 lbs and ready!! Already have the eating down pat... next..learning to exercise the right way.

I love how your show inspires me, thank you so so much!
Jillian have your book..love it. Waiting for Bob's to arrive from Amazon. I'm very lucky to see you both in action weekly.

Thank you!

girls rule, boys drool!!!
yahoo ali and kelly!!

What type of exercise will trim fat off the belly the quikest?

yahoo ali and kelly!!

I want to lose 150 lbs, and don't really know what I should eat. Could you please give me some ideas. Also, what kind of exercise is most effective. Thanks a bunch

Remember the concept behind this show is the "Biggest Loser", I really don't see how and why Kelli deserves to be in the finale. As for Ali, she was voted off once before and shouldn't be eligible.

How did you guys really feel when you found out we would be voting on the third finalist?

You should do a Biggest Loser for kids. I mean liek "young adults" ni middle school. That would be so cool

How do you tighten up loose skin from your tummy and arms?

I usually have about 1 hour to workout in the evenings. What cardio would you recommend? What type, intensity, and for how long??

What do you recommend for someone who has heel spurs on both feet. I can't walk more than two days in a row and i certainly can't run on a treadmill. I feel trapped in this fat body.

I have been stuck at 180 for several weeks now. I do about five days of cardio and two days of strength training. I don't feel like I can eat less. I need help.

I've been working out for weeks, 3-5 miles 5 times a day and have not lost pounds. WHY - yes i did change my diet

I need the ultimate song to get me pumped up to work out. What are you two choices?

Female Biggest Loser. I can see it now.

How do I get my dad motivated to exercise? Everytime I ask him to go for a walk with me he says he can't because his legs hurt.

Also, I am not a cook and really don't like to. What food can I eat to help me lose weight?

Hope Aly will win this.

Hi!

I was trying to find the heart rate monitors they wear on The biggest looser. Can you tell me what type they are?

Jillian and Bob, I love watching the show! My question is this. I can't eat whole grains because of an allergy, so how do I modify a healthy diet to exclude those, but still get the carbs I need?

Any scoop on next season?

How many days between the last two weigh in's? The final four pulled too big of numbers to be 7 days??

I want to thank you Jillian and Bob I have watched the Biggest Loser faithfully I started my weightloss goals in 2005 and with hard work and decication off and on I have went from 193 which is where I never want to be again to a amazing 154.8 I can never thank you enough you are such an inspiration to me and I am living a heathier life thanks to you and all who had a part in my weight loss goals I am 14lbs away from my goal. God Bless you both.

How in the world did the contestants lose so much weight in the 15th week? That was amazing. What kind of diets did they use or was it the type of exercise they performed? Please tell me, what?

Just watch the awesome numbers the four made this week. What did they do different this week. It was just last week when the boys gained a pound. Love the show. So motivating.

This year has been phenominal! You go girls!!! What an inspiration.

What advise would you give someone who has hypothyroids? I struggle to lose weight. I workout at curves and I see the scale go down very very slowly. Can You Help??

Ali and Kelly are in the finals, DH cant believe how they pulled it off tonight, maybe he should go in the den and cry along with Mark LOL

We saw the contestants face their food temptations tonight. What would would be your ultimate food temptation that Rocco would have to make more healthier for you?

I weigh 320 lbs - I have lost 21 lbs so far but just changing my eating. HOW CAN A 320lb WOMEN RUN ON A TREADMILL???? Doesn't that kill your knees? How long do you run for? Is it a run then walk then run then walk kind of thing?????

HI bob and jillian. My bf and I watch the show every week and we love you guys! We both have undergrad degrees in exercise science. And I am a PT student and he is CSCS. I think what you guys do is amazing!!!! However, even with our background we have still been unable to reach our fitness goals. He is 5’9” and 165 and is trying to get to about 175 but he has not been able to put on the weight and is not sure what to eat to make that healthy weight gain. He does take supplements and protein,etc but nothing has seemed to help too much. Any advice would be awesome and very appreciated!!! And as for me I am 5’10” and 160ish. I am trying to lose about 5-10lbs to reduce stress on my knee. I have very bad knee problems and struggle with squats, lunges, knee extension. I also use to be an avid collegiate athlete until I had surgery. I use to run everyday but I am not unable to even try again. Its very emotional for me and I want to lose this weight to try to reduce the stress on them. I workout a lot I walk, stair step, elliptical and bike I do about 45 min of cardio/day and strength train 3-4times/week. I eat about 1600 cal/day. Im not sure what else to do to lose this last little bit and I would appreciate some of your expertise! Anything you guys can offer would be awesome! And again you guys ROCK!!!!!!

I know this is a competition, but do Jullian and Bob get along off the show and do they still support the weight loss of contestants on the other team. Bob has to be proud of the girls loosing as much weight as they have and Jullian has to see how well these guys have done.

Jilian, When it's "that time of the month", I become a human garbage disposal and can't seem to feel full. Help!

Yes, yes, yes, yes!!!!

I screamed out loud when Kelly's number came up tonight! So glad Ali and Kelly are in the finals!!!

I have been trying to lose weight for 2 years and finally after listening to Jillian's advice on calorie counting I lost 10 lbs but seem to be stuck at that for a month now. Can you give some advice please Jill. Love to hear from you on this or by email. I think your great. Thanks.

Hi Jillian & Bob

I wake up @ 5:00 am to work-out, finish up 6:00-6:15, leave for work @ 7:00. My question is should I be eating before I work out and if so what should I eat to help my work-out?? I don't have alot of time in the mornings so I normally eat when I get to work, but sometimes I feel slugglish in my morning workout, so do I need to eat something the night before to help me or that morning right before the workout. Thanks for your help, and I just love you both and the Biggest Loser show. You and the contestants are such an insperation!!!

Hi Bob & Jillian: I absolutely love the dedication and commitment you have to maintaining a healty lifestyle. Thank you for sharing your vast knowledge. I am looking to lose about 7 lbs and I am having difficulty getting rid of the belly fat. Any tips?? Have a happy work out!!

Both of you guys are great trainers. Where can I fine a gray band to track my metabolism as well?

jillian how do i do your new workout video? do i rotate each level like do level one for a week then go to level two or what?

Hey Bob & Jill!!!

Ok, so, I'm 28 and weigh 320lbs. I've struggled with my weight my entire life. I guess you could say "It runs in the family".

So, I've tried several times to kick-off my weight loss program but yet have failed time and time again. I have so support, no money, and no idea how to get started. Sometimes I think I've failed before I've even started. Help?!?! Ideas on what to do to kick-start?

Love you guys!!! (See you in Nashville BOB!!) ((hugs))

How many hours a day do the contestants workout each day?

I have fibromyalgia. I can work out one day and then flare and not be able to work out for several days. Any suggestions of easy exercises that would be less likely to cause flare? Or that could be substituted?

You know..its interesting to watch the show, but seriously, the challenges? It is totally unfair to pit the women against the men like that. Like when they had to roll the giant tire - 4 big men vs. 3 women and a small man? Men & women competing in a mini triathlon? This was so unfair!

I love the show!!! I watch religiously every season. When I first heard about the show, I refused to watch it because of the title, but once I watched an episode, I was hooked and have watched everytime it has been on. I am 30 years old and I now wieght a little over 300lbs. This is the heavest I have ever been. I started getting bigger when I was in middle school and have gone up since then. I dont see myself as a big person, but I have noticed that over the past 2 years I have gotten bigger and gone up a size in clothing. I know I need to start getting healther, but its just finding the time and have the right mind set. Im hoping that my new friends that are very active/sporty will help me get busy and start losing wieght.... Keep up the good work and look forward to more great shows to come.... Jen

Hello Bob and Jillian
Around 7 yrs ago I lost 130lbs since then I have gained it back plus 10-15lbs for the last 5 months I have diligently attempted to lose weight again but I am at a wall I lost the first 25 lbs easily but the weight loss has stopped. I am now currently 295 lbs 5’4 and 28yrs old. I increased my exercise. I have corrected my eating habits but no weight comes off I really need major help. Hope to hear from either or I admire both. I am currently a member at Jillianmicheals.com and I just got your audio book Bob Are you ready?
So as you can tell I really want this please give me some advice as to what I can do helpless in Miami a big fan Ari

First, I want to say that this show is a huge inspiration. I got off the couch on New Year's Day and vowed to change my life. I weighed 264 pounds at the end of December. I joined a local gym and entered a fat bowl. I lost 24 pounds during it and lost the most weight. In 3 months time, I'm currently 226.5 pounds. I would do anything to work out with Bob and Jilian. I use the cookbook religiously and I want to know how I can maintain my weight and not continue to lose 2-3 pounds a week. I'm affraid that I will gain weight somewhere down the road. I love the show and everything it stands for. I work in radio and promote the show as much as possible when I'm on air. I want to thank the trainers, contestants, and NBC.

I currently go to the gym 5 sometimes 6 days a week, mixing my cardio with lifting on opposite days. I can NOT seem to get rid of the cushing around my upper and lower abs. I know they are there but you just can see them. I am tone in my arms and legs, but I can't figure it out. I've heard 80% of weight loss is nutrition. What do you suggest, if that is the case?

This was your first time watching the weigh ins. How did that effect you? Did it make you get even more emotionally involved in the show?

Bob and Jillian, I love your dedication to helping over weight people. It is clear that you are really there to help us change our lives. The contestants lose so much weight in a week while being on the ranch. Sometimes, this is discouraging to me while I watch at home b/c I am not able to drop double digits in a week. What would you say is a realistic weekly weight loss while being on our own journey at home? PLEASE KEEP DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING!! Also, what is the trick to being chosen as a contestant? I can see myself in so many of these female constants……….each season, I pick out my favorite girl based on her starting weight (always close to what I weigh!)

This was your first time watching the weigh ins. How did that effect you? Did it make you get even more emotionally involved in the show?

Help! I've hit a plateau and am starting to get frustrated. I work full time and am attending graduate school. I try to fit in workouts, but it obviously isn't enough. I don't have the time or $ for a gym. What can I do?

I just wanted to say thank you for the best show ever put on T.V. I wish I could afford what I need to join the club but for now I am unable....My daughter and I want to try out for next year but we hope we won't need to if we lose the weight..... I am 224 lbs. my daughter is 324 lbs. I also want to wish all the best of luck I will be praying for all....wish two could share the biggest loser grand prize. maybe something for the show to think about? love this show.

I am 32 and I am over 600lbs and have to use a wheelchair. Do you have any advice on how I can exercise effectively to lose enough where I can get around better?

Thank you?

I have a pinched nerve in my left shoulder. What exercises can I do without aggravating it?

I noticed on the show you offer a lot of meal options, but they mostly involve meat. I'm a vegetarian who has lost abt. 30lbs in the past 2 yrs. but now im stuck at 150, what can I do, what can I eat (i dont eat eggs by themselves (ie omlettes) or tofu). Thanks for help!.

Jillian, I admire how strongly you can motivate your team members! I don't have too much weight to lose (before I would be considered anorexic!), but I want to stay in shape and find it really hard to get moving. I don't have the ability to get a personal trainer like you to yell over my shoulder, so what is your best advice to help me motivate myself?

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!

Hey guys. Love you both. What amazing things you have done. I really want to be on the show. I currently weigh 305 and am 5'4. I really need you Jillian!!! I sent in a tape and am waiting to hear, I am really stoked and hope I make the cut. Any advice for getting noticed???

I'm interested in becoming a personal trainer. I currently teach classes at the local gym. How should I get started in this field?

Jillian have you forgiven Bob for choosing the unfair teams in the beginning? And Bob, do you admit that's what you did?

Hi Jillian and Bob...
So Im that same old story ... Im the fat girl with all the pretty friends. Im 21 years old and Ive known what its like to be thin. Ive been ridiculed for being chubby since I was three. I was put on my first diet at 4. I had the kitchen locked on me and been denied birthday cake by the time I was 11. I could go on and on about my issues with food... but you get the idea and that is only the tip of the iceberg with my obsession with food. Some are way too personal to reveal over the blog. My question is to you guys on what kind of supports are available for people like me... what are some ideas for me to get those supports? You guys are such an inspiration and I so wish I could be on the biggest loser ... but Im Canadian and Im not allowed... I just need that support that you guys offer... and Im wondering if Ill ever win my battle with food.

Dear Bob,

I am 36, 5'7" and 230#, God that sounds awful, I have depression and very hectic life. Are there any tips that you could offer to help me motivate myself to do want I know I should and really turn my self into the person I want to be? You and Jillian do an amazing job, you are both blessings to lots of people.

Your cookbooks have some good sounding recipes, but so many of the ingredients are things I have never heard of and cannot find in any of our area stores. I wish was someplace to order the ingredients.

Hey Jillian & Bob, I love you guys. My question is, is it possible to lose 80-100 lbs and not have hanging fat? Is is possible to be totally tone?
Also, is it true or a myth that you cannot do toning to a particular part of the body, it has to be overall toning.

Bob, you have me interested in yoga. Any advice on how I get started? I am not as in shape as you.

Help! I recently lost 54# and felt great but my husband was burned and during this time I gained over 60#. What can I do to get started again. I'm exhausted and am back to my fat clothes and don't want to be seen in public. I don't feel like myself anymore and am ashamed.

I do I lose weight in bed? I have a surgery coming up.

Is kim Lyons coming back to be a trainer on Biggest Loser?

What are the contestants wearing on their arms and where do you buy them? I assume they are a pedometer and or heart rate montitor. THanks for a truly inspiring show! My Family loves it and is motivating us all!!!

Hi, I haven't had a chance to read all the post. So I'm sorry if I make a repeat. I was wondering what was the hardest thing the both of you have seen on all the shows? Also what would be the best work out for losing weight? I currently have trouble being motavted(sp?) which sucks and I really want to lose weight and be healthy. When I do workout I use weights 3lbs and 5lbs and a body tonning (sp?) bar and ball. Which doesn't seem like much. Any help would be nice.

I am a school teacher and mother, 36 years old, who needs to lose 65 pounds. How can I eat and exercise regularly when I work schedule is not flexible?

Can you tell me what would be a good food plan and exercise plan to follow since I breastfeed? Sometimes it is hard to find the right kind of exercises to do to get rid of the extra baby weight. I really need a simple plan to help me get started on the right track. Thanks

I have started treadmilling again this year. I started at 15 minutes and have worked up to 45 minutes at about 3.7mph. I'm bored with it; it is a chore not a desire. Do you think I can get as much as a workout walking the neighborhood with my family at a fast pace; an up and down neighbohood?

I have breast cancer, a survivor, I gained weight on the meds....have neuropathy of the feet and lymphedema of arm, what exercises can I do to loose weight, love your show. inspiring.....thanks

I love the show and have watched everyone of them. I was wondering if you ever plan on doing "The Biggest Loser Canada". Keep up the good work

why is there no inpatient treatment for obesity? everything is for anorexia. i feel like i have a drug addiction, but it is with food! i need inpatient treatment or i will never succeed. any suggestions. thanks.

Hey Bob and Jillian,

YOU GUYS ROCK!
Just curious, but what can i do to become as awesomely strong as you?
Thanks!

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

My question is for help on my mid area. My backside and thighs are the biggest part of my body. No matter how much I workout I can never lose or even trim those areas. Is there anything I can do???? Thank you guys and keep up the good work.

I agree Mark does cry tooooo much

I love you guys!! Now my question is how do I lose 200 lbs?? I know change my eating habits and exercise which I have started doing but any other suggestions you guys can give would be appreciated!!:)

Jillian,
You're an amazing person and I admire both your strength and sensitivity. Your huge heart says a lot about you. You rock!

Jillian,
i am almost 15 and i am overweight. Watching the show has been so inspirational. I am really voting for kelly on this one because i am just like her when she was growing up. Has there been consideration about having a biggest looser for teens? I think there should be. Jillian u are so supportive and i would love to have u as my trainer.

I am well over 100lbs overweight in a sedintary job that I end up working long hours at. I have lost weight in the past through diet and exercise, various diets, and even medically supervised diets - but always the weight comes back on because life and work get in the way - no matter how I try to juggle things. I am currently back up on my heavier side and cannot find the motivation to get the weight off anymore. Depression has set in, its difficult to walk, and to make matters worse, I cannot stop eating until I am physically hurting from the amount of food I have consumed. I am currently considering having a lap-band surgery just to get my food under control as I feel I have no other option anymore, and my worst fear is to give up entirely and eat myself to death. Do you recommend this as a viable solution so that I can get myself mentally and physically and emotionally back on track - or is this just another long road to nowhere?

I love the show. Jillian is an inspiration to many of us out there. We have never seen this many men in the show who cry day and out. C’mon Mark/Jay/Roger! This is too much. We applaud your achievements but STOP crying.

Jillian,
After a devastating miscarriage, I went into a deep depression, and gained 100 pounds. I bought all your books, and have been following your workout routines. I have now lost 80 pounds, and am 20 pounds from my goal weight. You have changed my life. I am eternally grateful. You are a true inspiration.

What type of excerise should I do to get my lower body in shape? I have a pear shape... lots of butt and hips that has that side fat. How can I make my lower half look amazing?

Bob and Jillian this is such an intense MOTIVATIONAL show!
Im concerned on the prepackaged foods you offer. I strongly believe that in order to make this a lifestyle change we need to learn to cook the foods ourselves. I use some prepackaged foods when I am in a pinch, but I couldn't bare to eat them day in and day out. And yes Exercise will play a huge roll in our success, I will agree to that. I can relate to the contestants and their challenges and this helps me. I used to blame it on my thyroid, but last year I lost 25+. Only we can make it happen for ourselves, but it helps with you all here. Focus on the journey to everyone out there! We will succeed!

Jillian,
I can not get the weight off after having a baby. I was losing about two pounds a week and then started doing your new video with the same diet. I gained a pound the first week and stayed the same the second. Help What am I doing wrong?

Hi Jillian and Bob...
So I am a 21 year old university sstudent and I so desperately want to lose weight. Ive always been the big girl with all the pretty friends. Im around 200 pounds give or take on the week. Im in the midst of reading your book Jilliane, but I may need more help than a book can offer. You see, my weight has been a constant concern since I was 4 years old. I remember going to see my Dad for the first time at that age and just looking forward to seeing his face.... but I got off the plane and within 48 hours I was on my first diet. Food and me have spun out of control ever since. My brother and sister being so athletic and then there was me... always the chubby one. My Dad would lock me out of the kitchen to keep me from eating, I wouldnt be allowed to open my birthday gifts until I lost weight and sometimes I was even locked outside for an extended period of time to ensure I would exercise... this is just the tip of the iceberg. I wish I could be on the biggest loser... I could care less about the money... all I want is that constant support around me to help... but Im Canadian and therefore I cant be on it. If you guys have any tips, ideas or suggestions that you can give to help me find that support... it would be great.
Your both an inspiration.

Hi Bob and Jillian – you are both so inspirational, and the Biggest Loser show is the best prescription for America’s obesity epidemic – keep up the amazing work that you do!
I’m a 34-year old woman. Overall, I’m happy with the shape my body is in because I eat pretty healthy and I work out regularly by doing yoga, running, and swimming, but my biggest problem area is my outer thighs (I know this is partly hereditary). What do you suggest as far as exercises that would help me lose weight in this problem area?

I am a 29 yr old female and am definitely what you would call a stress eater. In March of 2006, I weighed 155 lbs and wanted to lose approximately 20 lbs. At that time I took a new position at work which is a lot more stressful. Now I weigh 201 lbs. I have allergies and asthma (both were present before the weight gain). I have recently been diagnosed with high blood pressure which could be stress related but I know my weight could also be a contributing factor as well as family history. I need advice on a couple of topics.

1. What advice do you have for someone who craves chocolate/sweets when they are under a great deal of stress? I have started SlimFast a couple of weeks ago and I did find some snack bars which are chocolate mint. These help but not totally.
2. I have a very busy schedule. At times I do not get home until 8 PM or after even when I get to work at 9 AM in the morning. Is there a website or something I can go on that offers quick and healthy meals that are ~500 calories per meal. During these late nights, I find it very easy to stop at McDonalds or some other fast food place to get something quick and I know that’s not healthy.
3. I find it very difficult to squeeze exercise into my daily routine; however, I realize it is a must to losing weight. I have started wearing a pedometer and have the goal of 10,000 steps a day. I also have small 2 lbs hand weights I use for a while every other day for strength training, but I’m not sure of the types of exercises to do with these. What strategies do you recommend to squeezing in exercise? Also, is there a website or something I can go to that will give me some good tips to do with the hand weights?
Thanks and I won’t take any more of your time since I know you have a lot of questions. I love the Biggest Loser and look forward to many new seasons.

I am 5'1" and 204 pounds. I have two children and a husband that works to jobs so I have no time for the gym can you help me with ways that i can work out and loss weight at home.

How do you motivate some you love so much. My loved one is just as big as some of the men were on the show. I try and show my support, and encourage him to watch the show with me and try and share my feelings of how scared I am that he may not be around forever with all this weight he is carrying. HELP!

Hi!
I would like to thank you guys for this wonderful show. I work as a 3D Senior Artist at Fuel Industries Inc (Game Studio) and a lot of our staff are overweight (computer work). For this reason the management organized a "Biggest Loser" employees challenge. The challenge started on January 21st and ends on May 1st. The goal is the same as the show, to lose the biggest % of our weight possible. We basically have no trainers, or guidelines. I came up with my own routine and diet which consist of eating around 1200-1400 calories, mostly yogurt, cereals, salads, eggs, chicken and fish. I also burn from 500 to 1000 calories a day doing fast walk & sprints (treadmill & heartbeat at around 140-150 bpm) I am proud to say that the contest is almost over (3 more weeks), I have lost over 58 lbs so far with this program.I train around 5-6 days a week. I have been so committed. I lost 24% of my weight so far, and hope to finish at 30%+ lost and 75 lbs total in 3 months. I am 26 years old, and I started at 250 lbs. I was getting health problem, high cholesterol etc... I feel so much better now! and watching everyone on the show motivated me a lot! Life is so much better now. I am planning to train more to develop my muscles now since my fat is gone and gain some mass. I want to go back to more of a "normal" diet, but controlling my portion. I used to eat over 6000 calories a day easily. I was wondering if you could give me any advices regarding a post weight loss diet plan. What should I aim for, what should I avoid?

Here is the link to our company blog: http://www.fuelindustries.com/blogs/2008-02-12/fuel-downsizes/

I am an non official "biggest loser" too. Where can I find a shirt like you guys have on the show? I would be proud to wear it! This was not easy, but I am glad I did it. My wife is so happy too.

I will write a page describing the process of my weight loss which hopefully can help others that have the same problems.

If anyone have any questions you can reach me at elektromaniak@hotmail.com

Where is the info about the Biggest Loser food delivery? I was interested in ordering it but I don't see it anywhere on the site.

Jillian, you're tough but I am sure it is worth it all. You are a motivator in helping overweight ppl achieve their goals.

Bob,
I am on disability and can't afford to go to a gym to work out. What can I do outside of a gym to lose 20 lbs and get great muscle tone? I have to be careful because I broke my tail bone about eleven years ago and my lower back frequently gives out or spasms out. What advice can you offer me for both of these problems?

my question is how can i get motivated after ahving my ankle reconstructed and casted for 37 weeks
you guys are great with your hints on the program
why dont you do a show for those with disabilites

I could ask about 10 million questions to help me loose the 50 pounds I need to shed, but I know it is me and me alone that has to have the determination and motivation to do so...so with that said, I will keep it simple and ask...with all the news lately about drinking alot of water may not be that beneficial afterall, what do you both have to say about that??? thanks for being such great role models!!!

Bob and Jillian,

I Love the show and look forward each week!

I enjoy watching the show. I’m 240 pounds, but I believe according to my age and height that I should be 165 pounds. Diabetes runs on my mothers’ side of the family, so being overweight scares me. I’ve never been a 2XL before. How do I start getting my weight in the right direction? I work retail and eat at fast food places since it’s close by.

Jilian, When it's "that time of the month", I become a human garbage disposal and can't seem to feel full. Help!

Jillian you are an inspiration to me, I have been asked to be in a wedding in August, and I am due to have my 2nd baby in May, what can I do to get in shape fast for my cousin's wedding?

I have arthritis in both legs and one hip. I cannot run or jump and I am sure that I am not the only person like this. Why not have a Biggest Loser season for people like us? It would really help.

Have u guys ever heard of the rotation diet? A friend is interested in it and I think that it goes against ur teachings. What should I tell her?

Hi Bob and Jillian,
I am 45 years old and need to lose 75 lbs to be at my healthy BMI. I have lost 10 so far just by modifying my diet. I want to work out but I cannot do high impact things. I have rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia. My body hurts! I do not have a pool I can use for water exercise. Any suggestions on how I can get moving to help lose this weight? I walk some now, but my body really hurts most days.
Thanks!

I have done the 30 day shred for a week in the morning. I did not lose any in that week. I eat 100 calories for breakfast, about 400 for lunch and 600 for dinner. Should I be working out in the evening?

I was wondering if anyone had any advice for me. I am unable to do any activity that can cause impact to my lower back; my doctor won't even let me walk. I have 3 discs that are damaged and a chronically inflamed sacroiliac joint. I used to work out 4+ days a week but since my injury I’m not certain what I can do. Any advice would be appreciated.

please i have tried every thing im only 13 and i hope you have a biggest loser jr.
p.s. i love your show!

Hi Jillian & Bob,

My wife & I would like to know what is the best exercise you can do for mid & upper abs?

I actually watched the show by accident. I was flipping through the stations and got hooked when I started to actually watch the show. My question is for the trainers and either one can answer or both.

My question is this... you guys deal with overweight people all the time and see their success as you work with them. What drives you guys the most to help overweight people?

Hi my question is for Jillian---How good is bike riding for weight loss? I have been at a plateau for about 7 months and since the weather has finally gotten better, I have been out on my bike. Today I rode 10 miles for a 630 cal burn...it that good or too much? I am 5'1" 160 lbs and stocky like you thanks for your help---I am big fan of yours!!!

hey bob and jullian i just wanted to know how i would go about losing weight i started a diet and exercise but its hard when the gyms are so expensive can you give me some exercises i can do at home without equipment thanks I watch the biggest loser every season

Please do a thyroid BL Event, millions of people have thyroid problems!!!

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!

Hey Bob and Jillian! -

I'm a college student and I'm not obese, but I'm not in a healthy range for my height. I find it really hard to make good choices with the limited options that are available on campus. I try to work out 3x a week at least, but weekly schedules vary so much that I never know if that will happen or not. I was just wondering if you had any tips for college students who are trying to stay healthy in an environment that makes it difficult to do so.

JILLAIN IS MY HERO

Is anyone else sick of hearing and seeing Mark cry?

please i have tried every thing im only 13 and i hope you have a biggest loser jr.
p.s. i love your show!

What kind of sneakers do the contestants wear or several kinds, running, cross-training, etc?

i have had an ankle reconstructed and finding it very hard to get motivated, i have been casted for 37 weeks
where do i get started, bob and jillian you guys are great, i wished you would do a biggest loser for people with disabilities

Bob mentioned that low carbing was for those who do not exercise. I do both so how much carbs should I be doing? Gym work includes 1/2 hr core conditioning, 10 minutes of stretching, 1 hr of upper & lower weight training and 3 miles on treadmill for 3 x's a week. Thanks for the response. BTW, lost 70 lbs...

Bob and Jilian, I have asthma and hip dysplasia and arthritis in my hips. What types of exercises can I do to lose weight in the hip and stomach area? thanks

I am about 50 pounds overweight and would like to become a runner. I do not how to start and want to go about it without injuring myself! Any tips you want to share? Bob and Jillian, you both rock!

Would you rather work out in a gym, or outside, where you can play more games, and have more fun?

I want to say that I love this show. And I really love you both, What you do for other people is so amazing. You are both inspirational to me. I broke both my ankles a year ago, I have joined Curves a month ago, what else can I do to not damage my ankle, but boost my weight loss? And I would so love to meet you both. There are times now when I go to eat something I shouldn't that you pop into my head screaming NO (mostly Jillian).
Again, thank you both for the iinspiration you give to all of us!

Can you post the recipe make-overs you did on the 4/8 show? They looked wonderful and cut so many calories.

I only need to lose about 20 lbs. The only part of my body Im proud of is my butt. I have started doing the biggest loser cardio workout, the only thing I workout is my butt. Is this the right workout for me?

I love the show, but Mark has to stop crying!!!!

I need to drop 25lbs -find it hard to do strenous exercise - have Hep C, Thyroid Disease and Chronic Allergies. One strenous workout and I am down for four - five days. Any suggestions?

How do the contestants lose 100 lbs in 100 days? The most I can lose is 1 lb a week. How many hours do they work out?

How do you suggest I kick my best friend of 26 years in the butt to start eating right, exercise and lose weight so we can become old ladies together? I'm VERY worried about her health & weight.

two questions. first how do you adapt a plan for someone with diabetes? and second, how can someone contact the trainers to hire them for personal training?

I am in the 2nd week, stage 2 of the south beach diet. I am 38 and 184 pounds. I've been at this weight before and this is my plateau and I can go no further. I work 4-5 times a week. what else can I do?

I love you Jill!

You are such an inspiration! Right now Im having problems with a plateau since an avulsion fracture in my ankle. Any suggestions?

I've also struggled with eating disorders in the past and am trying to do it right this time, however its sooo hard not to let the calories and workouts consume me! It becomes a cyclical obsession and sometimes I just can't stop. I push as far as I can...to the point where I can't go anymore. Any suggestions?

Thanks again soo much! P.s. I love your radio show :)

I cannot figure out a way to get my dad to lose weight and my family and I have tried for a very long time to inspire him. Do you have any suggestions of a very inspiring way to get him to lose weight because we've tried everything and we want him to be healthier. Thank you a lot!!! I love the show!

help, i have been working out an average of 5 days a week for approx. 1.5 hrs a day for over a year, and have not lost weight. I see some toning but am still about 20 lbs overweight. I am so frustrated and dont know what else to do. I do 30-40 mins of caRDIO 20 WEIGHT LIFTING AND THEN ANOTHER 20 CARDIO. HELP!!!!!! I CAN ONLY DO SO MUCH, WITH OUT RESULTS. I AM A HEALTHY EATER, NOT PERFECT BUT OVERALL HEALTHY.

I love the show, but Mark has to stop crying!!!!

Any ideas on meal plans for someone on a very very tight budget? I have 90 pounds to lose and am having a hard time finding healthy foods that are affordable. I drink 80+ ounces of water daily, walk/jog 5K each morning, and have tried to incorporate the weight control oatmeal for breakfasts. What else can I do? I don't seem to be losing any weight at all.

BTW...You guys are awesome. My 10 year old son and I never miss a show.

I am a cancer survivor and gained weight after treatment. I also have neuropathy of the feet due to chemo and lymphedema due to mastectomy. What exercises will help me loose weight? I don't eat a lot. Please HELP!

My life is very busy and I don't have more than about 20-30 min. to work out each morning. About 4 years ago, I lost 45 lbs and kept it off until last Christmas and have put 15 lbs back on. I'm trying to get over being upset with myself, but it so hard when I'm not seeing any results. I have two of the biggest loser CDs and am either doing 20 min. of it or riding my stationary bike each morning. I've decreased my calories to about 1300-1400 calories because any less than that I feel like I'm starving. I can't say that I'm doing everything exactly right, but I'm trying. I'm just at a loss of what to get this weight back off because I feel like what I'm doing isn't working.
Thanks.

Hey Bob and Julian I am 12 years old and I have been watching biggest loser for a while. It has inspired me to work out more.

Hi Jillian and Bob - What are your thoughts on past traumatic issues that lead to emotional eating. I have been struggling with my weight for years due to personal things that happened many years ago. Do you recommend getting those issues helped first or go into a weight loss plan head on while dealing with it... If I could only get past this roadblock I feel I could lose this weight! Thoughts?

I'm a yo-yo exerciser, but just recently joined a local gym. Now when I'm on the treadmill, and want to quit, I HONESTLY hear Jillian in my ear screaming "Go! Go! Go! You are NOT a quitter. You can do it. You are NOT stopping!!" Thanks Jillian!

hi, i was 270 pounds and i managed to drop 30 pounds but i can not seem to drop any more, what can i do to help this along, ps i been running to lose the weight!!!

I'm work with a trainer twice a week and much more on my own. Won't get into details on line, but my slow progess makes me feel like I'm failing my trainer. I feel really bad about that. She won't give up, but I feel like it.

Last season, Bob said, "If it has a mother, then it's protein." Do you not think it's possible to lose as much weight on a vegetarian diet?

I am a 42 year old woman. I just suffered a heart attack. I am 120 pounds over weight. With all the medication I am finding it hard to concentrate on starting to exercise. Any ideas u could share with me. I watch your show and would absolutely love to participate.

If you were to go into a grocery store and had to buy a frozen heathly meal which whould you pick up? Healthy Choice..Lean Cuisin...Smart Ones?

I have heard that the body needs protein to makeup at least 40% of their daily diet. How do vegetarians get the required protein without consuming too many carbohydrates?

Jillian~I just finished your book "Making the Cut." I am a vegetarian so I am finding it difficult to follow your meal plan. Do you have any suggestions for me?? Thanks so much!! :)

I have been doing 45 mins 3 x week cardio, additional walks, 1200 cals, and have had no weight loss. Should i work out more to achieve a 20# weight loss. Am a 51F and am frustrated. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

What is your opinion about diet pop and suger free drinks found on the market today? Are they healthy to drink?

Jill, I had my tubes tied and can't shed the belly any suggestions on exercises specific for the belly area?

I am a 21 year old young woman and I've lost 82lbs in 16 weeks and hope to lose 50+ more. Lase week I ruptured my achilles tendon and will be in a walking cast for 6 months. Any ideas on how I can keep up my motivation and get in some great upper body work? Thanks!

Love the show!

Could you please advise me where to start with exercise since I weigh at least 450 lbs and can only walk 10 feet w/o losing my breath and ankles and knees failing. I want to start somewhere but I don't have any clue what I could do. Please advise.

i am 13 and desprate to lose weight i love your show and hope you consider my idea to have a biggest oser jr.

What would you recommend to transition from cokes and sugar drinks and still be flavorful and filling? Something for after exercise or just a casual drink?

What is a good healthy snack to eat?

My question is on nutrition. I want to eat healthier and drop the fast food, but if I have to stop at a place for a quick lunch on the go, what do you recommend? Also is there a good, healthy cookbook that either of you recommend? Thanks a lot.

Hey, I'm a 17 y/o guy and have recently lost 70 lbs. I've been at a plateau for about 5 months now losing/gaining the same 5 lbs. I run daily (3-5 miles) and work out for an hour lifting 3 times a week. I also participate in baseball and have practice every day for 2 hours after school. My BMI is around 25 right now and I can't seem to take the extra weight off..what can I do? And my caloric intake is about 500-700 calories a day.

I love your show! I do have a question though...I really want to get back into my pre-baby shape. But with working 8 hrs a day and coming home to 2 kids who are 2 and 1...I'm just now motivated...Any ideas on how to keep my motivation and energy up?

I am hypothyroid and having trouble with my weight. I have put on 25 lbs in the last year. How do I fight the weight gain. Help Help Help

I am 35, mother of 5. I weigh 135 and am 5'5" tall. I have about 15 pounds I want to lose. I workout 5 days a week for an hour a day. I keep my calories at 1700 a day, and I do weight training and cardio as well. I am not dropping a pound! I am VERY frustrated, and I don't know what to do! I take an hour long spinning class 4 times a week, and weight train 4 times a week. I drink 100 oz. of water a day! HELP ME! I wish they had a biggest loser for those of us who cannot bust those last 15-20 pounds! What do you suggest????

Please explain to me how 90% of the challenges are not biased towards the Males?
Like on tonights episode, they had a huge running race, with and without extra weight. How could the women of possibly won?

Thx in advance

Hi Bob and Jillian!

I love you guys! Jillian I just bought your work out video! My question is...is it REALLY possible to lose the amount of weight these contestants have lost in 15weeks? and is it healthy? Any tips on how to kick start a diet to really start dropping the pounds?

Thanks!

Since men's and women's bodies are so different in make up and how they lose weight, why do you think the Biggest Loser's producers have not yet decided to do two separate Biggest Losers based on gender? I think this is the one case where it would be appropriate to be sexist.

I joined a gym 15 weeks as well as the biggest loser contestants....I work out 4-6 times a week..cardio and muscle training and have not dropped even a pound...can not get the scale to budge...checked thryoid and is fine...eating less as well...help me

I would like to let Jillian know that she is my favorite person and is a great role model.

I have watched several episodes of BL Australia. Though I love both versions of the show, I like the less-bleeped, more open format of BL Aussie. Do you feel like you are less censored down under? Jillian, would you ever wear the "support your local stripper" t-shirt on NBC? If not, tell me where I can get one...and your Bully-wear as well.

Hello! Jillian your awesome I have your workouts and they kick my butt...my biggest problem is I only have about 20 lbs to lose and I do not eat that much..Is there somthing I can do to jump start my weight loss?
Thanks!

It is amazing to see this much weight loss in such a short time period. How much were the contestants exercising to achieve this loss. 2 hrs per day? 3?

I am a 44 year old breast cancer survivor who also had a complete hysterectomy. My weight shot up over 30 pounds and I am having trouble takind it off. I also have extreme difficulty with mindless eating. Any ideas? I love this show! Thank you for all you do Jillian and Bob and all of you!

I need advice on attacking my midsection. I do not like sit ups. I walk four mornings a week for one hour. I try to watch what I eat and I drink mostly water. I love your show. Best reality show on TV

My question is how do the female contestants deal with water weight and female issues.

Do you watch the show on TV, and has an episode ever revealed some new information that led you to change your opinion about a contestant?

What do you both like to do to have fun when you're not working out or helping others work out?

What advice could you give someone just starting out on a weight loss journey? I have been struggling with this for too long. I need and want to begin a new life. With someone who has financial problems it is difficult to eat the right things all the time. I have tried Weight watchers and Atkins and many weight loss pills. NOTHING WORKS. I am willing to give it 100% and then some. Please help me achieve the same goals that your players have. I don't want to be 305lb anymore.*sigh*

I have Multiple Sclerosis and find it hard to get motivated. In the past I've lost 140 pounds. I have been putting on weight after my last 2 steroids cycles. I need to get my head in the right place. Please help!!!!!

How can I get those meal plans are they available on the east coast?

Dear Bob and Jillian, you guys are awesome!!!! I need help loosing weight. I have IBS and can only eat certain foods.I work out all the time, I don't really see any results. Can you guys help me?? I need to loose over 50 pounds. Do you think there is any hope for me?

I have become seriously addicted to your show. Y'all are awesome!! In fact, I printed out a pic of you, Jillian, and hung it on the wall in front of my elliptical because you are such a driving force and keep me motivated. I have 2 questions. How the heck do ya lose 5+ pounds a week when you have to work 13 hours a day??? And I am a very picky eater. If it's healthy, I want no part of it. So I drink meal replacement shakes and eat a Weight Watcher frozen meal for dinner, nothing after dinner, and I drink 120-140 oz of water a day. But I am still stuck on a monster plateau for about 4 months now. Any ideas?? Thanks guys. You're the best!!

Hello,
I love the show, I am so proud of the progress this season. I was wondering what the theme song is and who sings it? It is a very inspiring song. I am in a wedding in June and I need to get my arms in shape...What would you suggest being the best thing to do?

I love the show, this season is my favorite so far because of the extra fitness, food and cooking tips. I have been working out to 30 day shred for a week but am having a lot of trouble with pain in my knees and calf muscles while doing jump rope and butt kicks - any advise? Also what is a good sustitute for bananas & kiwi in smoothies? I am allergic to both.

Hi Bob and Jillian, I need to loose about 50lbs, my problem is I can not tolerate the food that is good for me. Like Certain vegetables and fresh fruits. I have IBS and a lot of other stomach problems.Is there hope for me.... I work out alot and I walk a lot. I don't know what else to do, I can not take the weight off.You guys are so awesome, if anyone can help me you guys can... Thanks in advanced.

Robin K.

Hey Bob & Jillian!

I was wondering, Jillian, how do you get rock solid abs? I am DYING to know!!!!

P.S. I love, love, love the show!!! We watch it EVERY week and have watched it for 3 or 4 seasons straight. My whole family watches it and we cannot wait for it every week!!

We love you Jillian and Bob, but Jillian, you win our hearts!!!

Go final 4!!

Go Kelly Go! Go Ali Go!!!

Go Girls!!!!

Go Jillian!!!

Thanks!!

Hello to both bob and Jillian!
First of all I would like to say I love the show. My mother and I have been fans since the first season and just now have gotten my Little Mom into it. I am 21 years old, about 5' and a senior in collage. My issue is that I have been trying to lose weight for a while but have been getting frustrated. I am a very slow loser when it comes to losing weight. The show has been inspiring me because I now know I am not the only one. I have been told that I need to eat more but when I have tried to eat the six meals a day thing or three meals and three snack thing, I have always felt like I am forcing myself to eat. I feel sick because I feel full. I usually go with two meals or sometimes one depending on my work schedule. Then with my job I really am not able to do that. I know it is not healthy to do that. I do not eat that much sweets, fried food, or fast food. My family and I usually eat at home. I eat mostly chicken, veggies and fruit. What do you think I should do?

Is it going to start or what??

I have been working hard, and now I am planning on rewarding myself, with new clothes! I found a great site for great deals to celebrate with - ruelala.com I became a member, and you can too, for free! Just head to ruelala.com, and click "a member invited me." You can use this email address: domonicg7@yahoo.com as the member who invited you, and you're in! Exclusive deals on the best names in fashion. And it's for members only! I love it!

I can not lose weight no matter what I try. I train for 1/2 marathons and race and work out days a week. I lost 44 lbs about 3 years ago put 10 back and now scale sits no up no down help

Bob and Jillian, who would you, personally want to be the Biggest Loser?

Hi Bob & Jillian,
I just love the show!!!!If it were not for finances I would so love to be there on the show training with you. You give so much motivation to others. I need this so badly. :( I am 305lbs and 27yrs old. I gained all my weight after high school(180lbs). I think it was mainly due to stress of adulthood. I have recently purchased a treadmill, 8lb medicine ball and a weight bench.I cannot afford a gym membership nor do I have time to go.First, is this ok for me to workout at home? And second I want to get down to my high school weight by next year. What advice can you give me to achieve losing at least 120lbs?! Thanks keep up the good work.

Hey Bob and Jillian - both of you have inspired me to really push my body and have ignited a newfound passion to have a healthy and active lifestyle. I was wondering what adivce you would have for someone who wants to become a trainer/dietician to help people change their lives?

Thanks you both for being my inspirations!

Amy

Jillian and Bob, I’m a sophomore in high school and I’m doing a research paper for English class about the differences in your training techniques. I was wondering what do you think your differences are and what do you feel is the most important aspect of a successful training program?

Bob and Jillian,
I have been watching the show since the start. I was hoping that you help me get started losing weight. I am about 50lbs overweight and have tried just about everything. Not sure where to start this time. Thanks for any help you can give. You both are awesome.

Hi Bob and Jillian,
I love watching you both on The Biggest Loser. Can't wait to meet you Bob at the Mall of America on the 12th. My question is ... I have only time to work out after my job on the over night shift and will it benefit me to work out a the "Y" and then go to bed? thank you
P.S. I just joined your weight loss plan Jillian!

Jillian/Bob - First I want to say that as a first time viewer of the Biggest Loser, I have found the two of you to not only be knowledgeable about your professions, but also compassionate about the contestants - this really shows! I also have a question: I am trying to motivate myself to go to the gym consistently, and have not seen results so have not been able to stay motivated. What do you think is the best combination of cardio and strength training for someone who is mainly concerned with losing weight? Thanks!

Hi Jillian and Bob! Thank you both for the motivation you give me! Jillian, you are the BOMB and I love your radio show. I wish you could be my trainer. lol

Jillian, besides successful weigh-ins what else on Biggest Loser makes you proud?

The world wants to know if Jillian is married or has a boyfriend and if not why not? Also how much would it cost to meet Jillian in person?

I love both of you!!! Do y'all have nicknames for eachother or what???? Because Bob seems to be like the brother you never wanted, but got and truely love. :) And, what is the ideal weight loss percentage for a person in a year?

Jillian what can I do if I have a 20 min. lunch and no micowave??

Bob i think you are so hot and I like how you reach everyone on an emotional level. Jill, i think you are an awesome trainer and you would be my choice. Are you and Alison still cool? Do you both keep in touch with the former contestants?

Hey Jillian and Bob! I love you both and The Biggest Loser. I started Jillian's 30 Day Shred today, and hope to lose some weight. I was wondering if a teen biggest loser would be in the future. It is very tough for me to lose weight, and I want to become healthy. I need your help Bob and Jillian!

Thanks,
Rachel.

Bob you've had the opportunity of working with both Jillian and Kim so who do you think is tougher?

Hi Bob and Jillian!! I just want to say that you guys are just amzing!!I like to see what you are doing to help your team losing weight. I speak french and I'm living in quebec and here we are at the season4, but I also watch season5 in english. I can't wait to see the final tonight! Hope you'll be back next season!!!

Sorry about posting my question so many times my computer is weird but my question is are there going to be any times when the Australian contestants and the American contestants meet and compete because i think that would be a cool brawl. Also are there going to be more contestants next year and are there going to be new trainers in the mix (no offense to you guys because you guys rock it's just that NBC made the mistake of hiring Kim and let Jillian go for a bit so anything is possible).

Bob & Jillian, I think you’re both awesome trainers. Any chance either one of you will be writing a book about weekly workout routines someone can do once they’ve reached their goal and are in decent shape? I’ve worked out most of my adult life (with a 3yr gap of not lifting weights). I started working out again 5yrs ago and over the past few months I’ve noticed that I was mainly “going through the motions at the gym” and not really pushing myself. Guess you could say I fell into a “workout rut”. I bought Jillian’s book “Making the Cut” and lost 6lbs of the 10lbs that I’ve been hanging on to for a long time. I got up to day 19 and was feeling great and noticing changes in my body. Unfortunately I had to take 3wks off from the gym and my running due to family illnesses (I did keep the weight off though). I’ve since started back to Day 1 of the MTC workout routine. I find I push myself more having a routine to follow. I can’t help but think “what next” after day 30 of the book? I think a book of random weekly/daily workout routines might be kind of fun for those of us who fall into a “workout rut”.

Having a book from one of you would be great since I/we can put a voice and an attitude with the workout routines (kind of like I can hear you yelling at me to keep going).

Keep up the great work!

Bob&Jillian,
we don't hear about your personal life are you both single? we met Jillian's mom how about Bob's family?

Hey Bob and Jillian, my name is Marlowe, I'm 17 years old and around 260 lbs. I've been putting on weight like crazy ever since I was seven. My birthday is on thursday and I will be going off to college soon and I would like to know what are some things I could do to lose enough weight and tone up so when I graduate from college I won't be so fat. P.S I am a big fan of your work and the show since season 1 of both the American and Australian shows.

Is it better to do push ups fast (and not go all the way down) or do them slower but go all the way down? Also, what is one way to fire-up the obliques and target the muffin-top.
Thanks!

my question is for jillian,i am a 26 yrs old girl who used to be over 357 pounds and i am 5'2.. i lost weight till i reached 245 pounds then gained back some pounds reaching 265 pounds, my problem is that i cant find my real problem like u do with contestants on the show, i am way ashamed of my lifestyle when it comes to what am eating, i found love twice and was approaching marriage then i hesitated cause i looked back and found that am just accepting them cause i finally found someone who can accept the way i look.. so tell me now after i tried everything and worked out with ur dvd and tried ur online program and the biggest loser program and dvd too what is left to do, am hitting a dead end which is why do i have to tire myself as long as am gonna die anyway!
I adjusted my diet and work out and nothing is working not even a pound.. so do u have a clue what is my problem?

hey guys I'm 16 and recovering from bulemia. I was wondering if you all had any advice about getting back on the right path with health and exercise?
Thanks and I love u JIL!!!

hey guys do ya'll know anything about eating disorders? Im recovering from bulemia and I'm wondering how I should get back on the right path with diet and exercise? BTW im 16.
Thanks guys, I love you Jil!!!

I have applied to be on the biggest loser 3 times. What do your producers look at when they pick the contestants? Love the show and so does my family. You both are inspirations for the whole country. Love you!

Hey Jillian and Bob!

I'm an extremely active person, I did gymnastics for 15 years and ran track all through high school. I'm currently training for my first half marathon which definitely helps keep me going, but some days I just want to lay down on the couch all day. How would you suggest motivating myself to get out of the door on those days?

Bob, you are a big fan of yoga. Where is a good place to learn basic moves? I am handicapped but I could do some positions. Thanks for your help

Hi Bob & Jillian!
I love BL! I am trying to lose weight, but I had a total abdominal hysterectomy a few weeks ago & I am trying to figure out what I do while I am still recovering. Any ideas would be great!!
Keep up the great work!!

Hi Jillian:

You are such a great motivator!! You are really passionate about the results of the contestants and I find that very admirable!!

What triggered your motivation and passion to help people struggling with healthy habits and physical fitness?

I'm seriously looking to change my health habits for the better but don't know where to start, any advice??

Thanks!!

Christine

Why are the challenges skewed towards the men winning?

I only have a few minutes in the morning and a few minutes in the evening what would be a good exercise for me to at home?

Jillian or Bob;

I am interested in what either of you think of using supplements in conjunction with what I do currently - which is weights and cardio 4 times a week. If so, which ones would you suggest?

Jillian, I just joined your website and am so confused with the math portion; I am 170 lbs and 5 feet tall. I am recovering from surgery so I am unable to do all the exercises because my knee is still healing. It says 1200 calories because I am inactive, is that calculated with no exercise or with the exercising on your page? Is there anything I can do to still get the workout? I am going insane sitting around doing nothing. Please help me, I don’t know what to do, I am confused on how to get going on this, should I have waited to join until I am healed?

Jillian - You are the main reason I watch the show. You are so motivating! What should come first in a workout-- should you do aerobic first and then weights? or vice versa? Does it make a difference?

Hey Jillian!

Okay so I have been dieting and exercising for 2 months now and I only lost 8 pounds. I'm 5'4 and I weigh 138 and my biggest concern is that I can't seem to shrink my love handles...is there a magical workout that will help me with my obliques? Its driving me nuts, I hate that it sticks out when I wear tight clothes. Please help me! Thank you soo much!!! BTW your AMAZING!!

The both of you are wonderful trainers and I watch the show every week. You are an inspiration to all!! My question is: What can I do for my horrible snack habit? Late afternoon is the worst time. I am active but I know I would be in better shape if I would eat better.

My workout partner/roommate and I are huge fans of the show. It really gives us the motivation and inspiration we need to exercise.

My only concern is that while we workout every day, she doesn't have very good eating habits. She gets frustrated with not losing more weight after so much work, but then she eats meal high in carbs and is always making brownies.

I don't have perfect habits myself, but I hate to see her struggle. How can I talk to her about this, without seeming preachy or self-righteous?

I am currently 6 months preg (with my 5th child) what would you suggest I do to start losing weight when I have zero time to myself to do it?

I have watched the biggest loser since day one and love it! I need to lose about 20 lbs, but not sure what to do, as I have had 5 back surgeries two have been fusions (s1,L4,L5, C5-C7). I am not sure what excercises that I can do. You guys are AWESOME!!
We love you!

Jillian I think you are the best trainer anyone could ever have in their life!P.S. you have the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen!

Do you have any tips on building ab muscles? Thanks!

Jillian I think you are the best trainer anyone could ever have in their life!P.S. you have the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen!

You guys are both amazing and extremely inspirational. I have been working out for over a year now. Weight training three days a week and cardio three days a week. I am on a reduced calorie diet watching carefully everything I eat. I am having a really tough time losing weight. My question is what can I do to lose weight. It is frustrating to work so hard and not see any results. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for being the great trainers you are and inspiring others to get healthy!

You two are amazingly sexy and sweet to boot.
I'm 22, in a crazy stage in eating disorder recovery. Your show has helped me gain the motivation to strive for a healthier body both physically and mentally/emotionally...rather than rail thin. There's so much I'd like to say but I won't...as it would be repetitive. Just know you're great people, beautiful, and highly inspirational. Maybe we'll cross paths someday.

Hi Jillian & Bob. Quick question please... I get up every morning at 4:15am to get in my workout for the day. Should I be eat before I exercise (usually a kick -boxking or aerobic weight-training DVD 45-60 minutes long) or will I burn more fat if I workout on an empty stomach? Right now I only have a few sips coffee.
BTW...I love the show and tips from the both of you every week. Thanks!

Where can I buy the watch the contestants wore on the Australia episode that tells how many calories you burn?

I need some suggestions for a healthy lunch. I am in a rut with frozen Lean Cuisine or Healthy Choice, but they are SO high in sodium. Thank you.

I love the show. Any way we can see contestants from all Biggest Loser shows and how they're doing now?
Also, with a bad back how can I exercise and lose 75 lbs?

I have been trying to purchase foods without high fruitose Corn Syrup and low sodium but it seems like everything in the ingredients have it in them... How much High fruitoose corn syurup is ok to eat? I noticed it in Yougurt,bread,crackers,cottage cheese ect?

Bob and Jillian: What do your tattoos mean?

I need help. I go to a body bootcamp for 1.5 hours 5 days a week and eat around 2000 calories a day which most of it is fresh food that I prepare. I have been doing this for 10 weeks now and have only lost 1 pound. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong? I am hoping to get on the show so that you can show me.

This question is for either of you guys. Since Mark suffered the stress fractures in his shins, he has been wearing special compression socks. I was wondering what brand they were and where I can find a pair. I suffer from the same ailment and it would help me out so much in my workouts. Thanks guys.

I am wondering if it is true that the contestants have one day a week that is a "high calorie" day? If so, what are the limits for that day? Also, do they have one day a week where they don't work out?
Thanks! I love the show! Very inspiring.

COMMENT FOR BOB.
BOB I THINK YOUR BOOK IS GREAT I HAVE ALREADY FOLLOWED YOUR EATING PLAN AND I FEEL SATISIFED NOT TO FULL AND NOT HUNGRY AFTERWARDS. I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR BEING THE PERSON THAT YOU ARE. I GOT THE CHANCE TO MEET YOU IN PARAMUS NJ...YOU MAY REMEBER ME AS "WHITE RICE" BUT I WANT TO TELL YOU THAT YOU HAVE GIVEN ME THE MOTIVATION THAT I NEEDED. IF IT WASNT FOR PEOPLE LIKE YOU AND JILLIAN PEOPLE LIKE ME WOULD STILL BE STRUGGLING WITH THE MOTIVATION TO LOSE WEIGHT. THANK YOU GUYS...

CARLA

Hi Jillian and Bob, first off I love the show I have not missed one. I myself had a problem with my weight. I have reacently lost 52 lbs. My question is I have really bad knees so I can not do thing like lunges and squats. It just hurts too much. Are there any modifications that I can do and get the same results as the squats and lunges?

Jillian,
I am on day 16 of Making the Cut. Just want to thank you for such an aweseome book. I can totally tell a difference in my arms and legs. I didn't need to lose wieght, just wanted to tone up and this book is definetly doing the job. Thank you for all you do.

This question is for both Bob and Jillian. Two of my co-workers have been giving me a hard time about weight loss in opposite ways. One constantly yells at me (very rudely) whenever she thinks I’m not eating what she thinks I should be eating despite the fact that she knows nothing about what I eat on a regular basis. The other co-worker is literally shoving junk food in my face all the time. Both of them flat out refuse to stop even though I have asked them to not do what they are doing. They’re stressing me out. What is the best way to counter them?

Love the show! I am usually at the gym watching it from the ellyptical trainer and stationary bike. What is the goal for the contestants for number of hours of exercise per day and daily caloric intake? Do they take any days off during the show from exercise or do they exercise every single day? Thanks for your motivation!

hi guys, i am in dire need of someone to motivate me to exercise and lose weight. i lost my husband, who was my support, about a year ago and since then cannot motivate myself. i am very short and very overweight. any suggestions or help you can give me.

First...thanks guys for the inspiration! I have lost 30 pounds since January 1st and to this day, I close my eyes on the elliptical and pretend Jillian is my trainer and is yelling at me that I can do more. I do have a problem though. I am stuck at my current weight...166...5'6") I was curciut training 3 days and cardio twice a week and aiming at 1400 calories a day. I have changed my workout to 40 minutes of cardio and weight trainng 20 minutes after. I cannot lose a pound. Any advice? Thanks

Great job on the workouts you set up for the contestants. I am a CPTr and LMT and the show is great for business! How much of your routines are cardio and how much resistant training? do the contestant get any type of body work (massage) to aid recovery/repair during the series?

Hi, I'm 14 years old and I just want to say that you are absolute role model Jillian. You have had such a big impact on my life. Thanks. (:

I am a breast cancer survivor. some arm toning exercises are too stressful after surgery. any suggestions?

Hi Bob and Jill,

If someone were to set you a 'face your fears challenge' - what would yours be?

Bob & Jillian:
Do you think we viewers have seen a fair enough & equal showing of the two contestants' below the line -- of their personalities, weight loss efforts & game play to make a fair decision on who to vote off?

Hi im 19 years old am have been losing weight for the past few months but still have a lot of fat in my mid section. what are some good exersizes to tighten my abdoman?

I enjoy the couples dynamics - that people bring their enabler with them to the show. What was different /harder/easier about training couples as opposed to individual contestants?

Were the 2 of you friends before you were chosen for the show? How did you learn to work together?

6. What are you opinions on the differences between the ways men and women lose weight?

4. We have people on the message boards afraid to get started. What do you recommend?

5. Do you have any advice for people who are injured or disabled?

3. What motivates you to exercise? Better yet, what motivates you to do something you don't want to do, but know you should?

Thanks so much, I have a lot of questions:

1. Jillian, what does your mom think of your passionate training style?

2. Is there any way the 2 of you can convince the producers to show more of the workouts? Trainer tips? Food preparation?

I am so obsessed with the biggest loser. If it wasn't for the show I would have no motivation to exercise. I started my diet march 13th, and I have lost in a month a total of 16 lbs. I exercise everyday for a hour and a half, and cook and eat stuff out of the cook book. The hardest part is I work at McDonalds. But I'm keeping my motivation just from the show. Thank you both.

Good evening,
Jillian you are awesome person. A true inspiration to people. I have a question; what are the best excerises for strengthing your lower abs?

Hey Bob and Jillian! Is cardio 7 days a week and resistance 5 to 6 days a week too much? Also, I find I am not hungry and am forcing myself to eat to get the calories in, is this normal? I've felt this way since February, and many a day I only get in 900 to 1100 calories a day [and I thought I heard Jillian say you shouldn't go under 1200].

Jillian you inspire me so much..there are no words! You have moved me to tears and moved my butt off the couch! If I was a millionaire I would fly you to Canada to kick my ass into shape. Any chance you will do a BL Canada???

In your opinions, do you really think the a Bodybugg is worth the investment?? I have looked at them and wonder whether it's worth the cost. Thanks guys!! You're awesome!!!!!

Hi Jillian I am a huge fan. I have your book and your DVDs. My dream is to train with you even thought I am 13 I think I could do it. I have problems since I am 13 all my friends make fun of me because I count my calories and make sure I burn off what I can. My question is what should I do about all the kids at my school who make fun of me because I am obsessed with Biggest Loser and well making myself a heather and better person??
P.S you are 10 times better then bob ( no offense bob )

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

Hi Bob and Jullian.....I first wanted to say thank you for the inspiration that you have given to myself as well as many others to finally get up off the couch and get moving toward a healthier life style. I was wondering since both of you have been such an inspiration to others, who was an inspiration to you to move you both in the paths that you have taken to become trainers? I am thankful for all that you do and love you both dearly....keep up the hard work!

I want to thank-you Bob and Jillian for all the effort and strength you put into helping your teams lose the weight and keep it off.It is a blessing to have you guys here helping the contestants get fit physically and mentally.Keep up the great work guys.

Bob,
How did it feel to have to cry babies and a young arrogant kid on your team? it was funny though when Dan got kicked off because we did have to listen to him anymore, but wonder if he told himself: guess you should have tried harder!:

Jillian:
Do you have a boyfriend/married/kids and if not why not? My brother thinks your hot and so do my guy friends:) Also how does it feel to still have kicked Bob butt again and not just having all his team in the finial

Hey Bob and Jillian,

First and foremost, I must thank you both for your unflappable inspiration. I am SO HAPPY to have you back Jillian, you were sorely missed for that season. I wanted to tell you two that I had the same reaction as you when I saw the promo that AMERICA would be choosing the 3rd finalist. I do not believe that America has any place making this decision. The contestants have worked their butts off all season and have a measurable result to justify them being there. I will be curious to see the producers reasoning behind this.

Hey Sherry B!

We have a lot in common and I think we need to team up and go on the show. I live in Lancaster, CA and also have tried out for BL (twice). I am 48 1/2 (50 is scaring the ??##$$QQ out of me). My son's Dad also committed suicide when my son was 2. I am at about 240, been diagnosed with diabetes,and have been going thru menopause for the last two years which makes it almost impossible to lose weight and keep it off. Last year I lost 50 only to gain back 60. I am disgusted with myself and feel that I have no right to continue down this path of destruction leaving my son (9) an orphan. After my husband's death I decided to go to college. I received my Bachelor's in '06 and am now half way thru my Master's. I am a HUGE FAN of the show and absolutely adore Bob & Jillian and I welcome either one of them to KICK MY ARSE!! I am not sedentary and have recently joined 24 hr fitness. I am soooo ready to get healthy because I don't want my son to follow in my weight issue footsteps and I don't want him to grow up without me.

I don't really have a question but I just have to say that Bob and Jillian that you guys are amazing people and to thank-you for helping people change their lives.P.S. Jillian you are gorgeous

How about a Biggest Looser Senior addition. I interviewed in 2006 for the Biggest Looser. I am 59 years old now. At the time I was told that participant were in their 20's and 30's. I would love to be on the Biggest Looser and proove that Seniors can loose weight

I have a severe L4-L5 back injury with screws and bone graph. Would I ever be able to work out and be on the biggest looser?

I absolutely love the show. What is the contestant's routine work out schedule like? How often do they work out at the ranch? What exercise routine would you recommend to someone who is just starting off but needs to loose a large amount of weight?

First,I wanna say you guys are great! You inspire me.

Next I have a hugh question. Since last August(07) I have been on an 1800 cal 54 fat g diet. I have lost 55 lbs. but I recently dropped down to 1600 cal and also adjusted the fat intake, as I was on a plateau. I still have 45 lbs to go to meet my goal. I have been on the 1600 cal meal plan for 3 weeks, besides the fact that I am constantly starving, I am still not losing any weight. I have tried extra exercise and extra water to stop the hunger but I am still hungry. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks for your help

Hey Bob and Jill,

I am a HUGE FAN of the show and of you two!!! I love to exercise on a regular basis and I push myself to the limits every time!!! I enjoy aerobic classes, running, weight lifting, power walking, and working out on the stair climber. But I want to lose about 20 more pounds before summer. I was wondering if you think the special K diet will help me lose the weight??? My problem is that I work 2 jobs and go to grad school part-time, so I am not getting enough calories that I need to maintain my fitness level and metabolism. Do you think the special K diet will give my enough calories and the right nutrition I need to reach my weight goal???
Thank you both for your help,
~Monica S. from NY

I'm a BIG fan - both in person and of the show! I was wondering if BL will be opening up casting calls to Canadians, or if there are any plans to have a Canadian Biggest Loser show? If so, I'd gladly volunteer to represent the 40-something Canadian woman!!!

I am a HUGE fan of the show and especially of the two of you. I have a question about the contestants and their capabilities when they first arrived on the ranch. I am really struggling with running, mainly with the breathing. I have been overweight my whole life and have never been a runner. My trainer gets me on the treadmill during most of our sessions and I am completely out of breath after running for one minute. Although I work out several times a week (5-6) and "practice" running on my own, I still have a lot of problems with the breathing. I'm curious if any of the contestants on the show struggle with their breathing and how you got them to overcome that. I'm assuming that as I lose weight running, and breathing while running, will become easier. I would like to know if you have any tips for what I can do to get my breathing under control so I can run for more than a minute at a time. Thank you!

The contestants have been wearing red and white plastic bracelets. What do they mean?
Thanks!

Please include in a new book how to modify exercises for those with knee/back problems. Thanks so much

I have tried doing cardio, but my breathing doesn't seem to be able to handle it. I have been checked out by a Dr. and everything is fine. I'm 44 years old and don't sit in front of the tv, but also haven't done any exercise either. How long before my body gets used to me trying to do cardio before the breathing will get better? Right now, about 10 minutes of cardio is all that I can handle.

What advice can you give me? I have rheumatoid arthritis and lupus and really need to lose significant weight. The meds I am on all decrease metabolism. In addition, exercise is a challenge for me.

Jill: you have made a huge difference in my life. you have made me want to change my life around. my one wish in this whole world is that i could train with you and have you teach me how to eat right. my mom always had me make a life list and to lose weight has always been on it but since the show started my number 1 thing on my list is to meet you and have a chance to work with you. just do make a difference. i dont even know where to start in all the question i want to ask you. how do i make a meal plan for one skinny person (my hubby) and then one for me. what workouts should i be use?

Maybe you all should do a show with the whole family or mother's and child, mothers and child at 10 up to 18. I think that would be great since obesity is a problem in the schools.
Keep up the good work!

Is there anyway you all could set up a training/excerise schedule for me and my 3 son's. I dont want them to have to struggle with weight issues when they get older, like I have.

ps love the show you all are great!

Jillian -

In Australia, did Kelly really eat the oyster, or did it end up on your shoe?

You ladies gave me a good laugh!

I love the show and Bob you are the greatest. Is it possible for BLC members to visit the campus for some one on one time-mini boot camp? I have your new book and want to learn from it. Take care and keep a smile in your heart always.

Jillian~
why were you gone from the show for a season? Also what is the necklace of yours that you wear alot? it is very beautiful! also what are your tattoos of and what do they mean?

I love your show to death! Bob I thing you are the best trainer in the world! If i could have one lifelong wish granted it would be to have you as my personal trainer for one day or at least a phone call from you! 208-275-9119!

What was that calorie counter that Ali was wearing when they went dancing and is there somewhere that I can buy one?

Sorry Bob, but I am a Jillian fan, not that you're not great also, but I've had problems with male trainers/coaches. I do not have a problem with my weight; however am out of shape. How do I get to like exercise? Also, my mother is severly over weight with multiple physical ailments including fibromyalgia, depression, drop foot (as a result of botched back surgery), among other things. She is to the point of eating almost nothing and still gaining weight. Any help on this subject. Every time she tries something, something else goes wrong. Can you help us?

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SHOW and am at odds as to which trainer i love better so its a tie. My question is: I have been diagnosed with severe plantar faciatis and bone spurs. Sooo i need to know what kind of exercise(s) I can do to lose this last 15 lbs. Please if you could...HELP thank you so much and can't wait for more TBL
Donna

I am looking forward to the April 8th show of the Biggest Loser. I have been hooked on the show since Season 4. But after Season 5 is over I am going to stop watching it because it is getting too adicting and I will be working. I have a question for Jillian, if there was ever a person on the show that for religious reasons can't eat some foods like pork, and any kind of shellfish, would you respect that person's beliefs? I will not eat those kind of foods and I kind of would be very upset if you tried to force me to eat a oyster. I would not do it. Truthfully those foods are unclean no matter how much you try to put so many stuff to make it edible. So that kind of bothered me.

First of all, let me just say that I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this show; it has been such a HUGE inspiration for me. I've been overweight for most of my life, and even though I wanted desperately to make a change in that respect, I found it hard to actually "do it." Now, I'm actually taking that step to bettering myself healthwise, and physically. I've been watching what I eat for about 2 months now - cutting out a lot of foods that I know aren't exactly healthy or consusive to losing weight such as sweets, coffee, soda, white rice/white bread, etc. I hadn't weighed myself before I started making these changes in my eating habits, but on March 25th, 2008, I finally weighed myself and was immensely devastated by what I saw on that scale [315 lbs] - it was on that day that I joined a gym and have been working out consistently since then - as of yesterday [April 2, 2008], I'm down to 295 lbs; I was ecstatic! Now, my question is this - I'd like to continue to eat healthy [the working out is a non-issue for me, no excuses, it has to be done, period] but being that I'm on a very low budget, I have trouble determining what I should and shouldn't get. Do either of you have any suggestions as far as continuing to eat healthy on a budget of about $200/month?

Will there ever be a Biggest Loser for teens and their parents? My daughter is 14 and overweight as am I. We have been doing pretty good here at home but what a benefit it would be to have professional help.

Keep up the excellent work..both of you!! - Sandy

I just wanted to say what an inspiration that Ali is to me. I weigh 236 and I am 29 years old. She has given me the hope, commitment and dedication that I need to get on the right track to weight loss. I started with a weight of 250 in September 2007. I have lost almost 15 lbs and I have a goal of 150. Thanks Ali for that inspiration!!

I have worked 30 minutes of workout time into my daily routine over lunch breaks. My question is what is the best way to utilize this time?

The weekend right before the makeover episode aired I saw on this website a video clip about it & during the clip Allison said that Brittnay would Courtique her outfits. So I was wondering did she ever courtique your outfits? you know was there ever any times when you would walk in to the house and she would stop what she was doing wether it was eating or talking to the other people and look at you up & down to the point where you were like whats wrong with my outfit today Brittnay My next question is for Bob. I was wondering if since Dan has moved to LA to pursue is singing career have you guys continued to work together?

I have been trying to loose the weight and I'm having a hard time keeping my target heart rate up. What is the watch and arm band that the contestants use to help them? I am a nurse and on days that I work can easily get 10,000 steps in a 24 hr time. I run up the stairs during my breaks and would like to monitor my heart rate. I also would like the monitor my work outs. Thanx.

I love the show I am 40yrs old and I am disabled due to the fact that I have had 15 operations in the last 10years so I cannot do any abdominal exercises I did lose 50lbs last yr gained back 15 I take alot of meds. Question is do you have suggestions for me for exercises that I can do that won't hurt my hernia. Oh yeah I forgot to tell you that to LOL.
Thanks so much really love you both.
Best of luck to you both
Hugs,
Patti

my question is for jillian,i am a 26 yrs old girl who used to be over 357 pounds and i am 5'2.. i lost weight till i reached 245 pounds then gained back some pounds reaching 265 pounds, my problem is that i cant find my real problem like u do with contestants on the show, i am way ashamed of my lifestyle when it comes to what am eating, i found love twice and was approaching marriage then i hesitated cause i looked back and found that am just accepting them cause i finally found someone who can accept the way i look.. so tell me now after i tried everything and worked out with ur dvd and tried ur online program and the biggest loser program and dvd too what is left to do, am hitting a dead end which is why do i have to tire myself as long as am gonna die anyway!
I adjusted my diet and work out and nothing is working not even a pound.. so do u have a clue what is my problem?

This question is for Bob. Did you have any regrets after choosing the teams? Is there anyone you wished you would have picked for your team or did you feel guilty for picking them so unevenly?

This question is for either Jillian or Bob. This is the fifth season of the show. Do you think that we will get a celebrity Biggest Loser, because there are alot of them that need to lose weight also.

Hello Jillian and Bob,
Love you both and the show. On the show we always see you telling the contestants to stop holding on to the equpiment. So my question is.... Is it more effictive to go slower and not hold on, or to go faster with more incline and have to hold on?? Thank you in advance, anna marie

Jillian,
You seem to genuinely care about the people you train and that's so important for anyone trying to live a healthier lifestyle. There are countless poor trainers out there. You have heart! You push people beyond their comfort zone to get results all while telling the people you train that they are capable of that...that's what a good trainer does. I have never had a weight problem, but you have challenged me to eat better and live better. I hope that you also tell the people you train to keep it up because sometimes even those close to you including friends and family will try to sabotage your efforts perhaps out of jealousy. I was in shock during one episode when the cadidates went home and their friends and family were trying to feed them junk!!! Someone who cares would never do that! Anyways, I just wanted to tell you that what you are doing is changing the way people live.

Hi, I am 17 years old and I just want to start off by saying that both of you, bob and jillian, have made such an amazing impact on my life and have inspired me to want to become a personal trainer. I was wondering how you two got your start on becoming a personal trainer and how I might get my start. Any suggestions?

I have always had an issue with my weight. I am in college,and I am also on the golf team. It has been a struggle to find a time to eat lunch. What is a good easy lunch idea?

The Oyster part kind of bothered me a bit. It is against my religion to eat Pork and any other unclean foods from the sea. But I know Jillian would have respected my religious beliefs in that, I would hope. And another thing...I am tired of crying men. The brothers just overdid it a bit. They are great guys but I wished they didn't cry so much. I am suprised that Saturday Night Live haven't made fun of the show yet because they would be made fun of on that show big time. Look at that crying girl on American Idol last year. Well, I am looking forward to next weeks episode.

I was just wondering if the rift between Allison and Jillian has been repaired? It seems as though Allison was doing what she was hired to do as she took a bit of shrapnel from Jillian. I know it was the heat of the game, but the viewers didn't get to see a resolution. Allison addressed it in her own blog saying she loved Jillian. I was wondering what Jillian's take on this is

I love the Biggest Loser. This episode has been the best. Maybe because i can relate to them as indivudals. A great group of people. They are inspiring and I truly hope they continue with their journey and I hope the show continues, it is so good for soo many people!!

Hi Bob ;) & Jillian :)
how do you maintain a healthy lifestyle while at college with limited food options and an extremely modest budget?

Jillian and Bob: I walk/run three miles everyday and then lift on alternate days. Should I be walk/running everyday?

Can someone please tell me what are these armbands that the contestants wear around their biceps , what they are used for and where you can buy them.

Hey Bob & Jillian. I'm as skinny as hell but not in shape. I've begun running and would probably enjoy it if not for the constant lower ab pain after the first 5 minutes. Is it because of poor ab strength or not enough water? I dunno. Any suggestions? Jennifer

I work out at 5AM - before work- and go straight to work from the gym. What should I be eating before and after the workout? I typically don't eat at all before workout and have cereal/milk or something similar at work. I am not sure what I should eat before working out.

Thanks

Hey Jillian and Bob,

My question is this: Last season, you guys had the contestants get up early to go to "work" and you were both talking to them about the real world for when they got back home. I can't remember if the contestants ate or worked out before they left but something left me highly confused. On your DVD's Jillian, it says not to workout until 3 hours after you eat. If one can only get a workout in, in the morning, should one eat before or after?

Also, I've been doing your workouts Jill and I really am impressed AND happy with what I see. I'm 21 years old, 4'11" and only 97 lbs (DR.s tell me thats perfectly normal for my height). I was reading an excerpt from your book on how to tell what shape you are and I found out I'm pear shaped so I'm trying to work on my bottom half. I had major back surgery when I was 15 due to Scoliosis and now have 2 titanium rods screwed into each side of my spine so I've also been using your workouts to re-strengthen my back muscles. You truely are a Blessing and I love the workouts as hard as they may be.

Dearest Jill,

You seemed pretty tight with Britney throughout the season and I heard you guys hanging out on your radio show the other week. Do you think Britney could have won this seasons if she had got through just another week?

FYI. 'The Biggest Winner' is a godsend. You are a legend and I highly recommend the DVD set to everyone!

Peace, f4tty

Dear Jillian & Bob,
You NEED me on Biggest Loser as much as I need to be there. I am a young 51 year old newlywed that has jumped my hurdles in my life. Mother passed in Sept.2007, son's father committed suicide, sold house and business to move over 2000 miles to a town with 4 dogs leaving everyone I love to start a new life in Las Vegas(large town) so that no one would know my past. I even changed back to my maiden name and kept very closed mouth about my past. I have been a bill collector/ supervisor for 28 years and can handle any situation and pretty much read anyone I come into contact with. However, I can not muster up the strenghth to lose the 90 pounds I need to on my own. In the past I have been able to lose the weight if someone weighted me weekly on those 600 calorie diets, no exercise required only to gain twice as much back. I would make all women in there 50's proud. I came to a casting call trying so hard to be on the show and the 30-60 second interview just wasn't long enough. Can you help me and pick me for your right hand woman!!! I REALLY need to be there. Buffets and kisses from Las Vegas...Sherry (the de-terminator)

For both Bob & Jillian

I would love it if the producers would show more of the foods the contestants are eating and the workouts and not so much of the contestants and what their thoughts are like Dan was always doing this season. You are both awesome trainers and if I were on the show I would either want to be on Jillians team or if Kim comes back for sure on her team. I started watching the show 3 seasons ago (Season 3) and at first the show was good. But now the contestants just want to win the game and play it. The purpose for them being there is to get healthy and lose the weight, it shouldn't be about the money.

Jillian, I would love to be on the show with you for my trainer. If they would only allow 13 year olds to be on the show, my mom and I both would try out for the show.

Your friend,
Ashley

jillian
I would love to know if there would be a singles show comin up. You are great at what you do and would love for you to be part of my wieght loss.please let me know

Could you both elaborate on your choice of tatoos. I have also been trying to figure out what is on the medallion around jillians. neck. Lastly 30 day Shred for beginners/advanced skinny or obese? Thanks

Hey Jillian & Bob!
Ok, I'll get right to my question. I'm not exactly sure how many grams of carbs/protein to consume on a daily basis. Would you happen to know how much is necessary, please consider I'm 5'2 154lbs and exercise daily for atleast 2 hours, and do Strengths/Resistance training 3-4 times a week. Any advice on my intake in carbs and protein or anything else you might suggest?

Question for Bob or Jillian,
I have been running 3-7 miles a day for the past four weeks and have gained 10 pounds. I am average size at 5'4" 125 pounds, but don't understand why I am gaining so much weight. I don't overeat and try to eat the right foods. I just don't get it.

Hey Jillian and Bob! Love the show!! My question is about injuries. I had a stress fracture and calf tear about 5 months ago and while I am getting back to my workouts I feel like I have lost focus...any suggestions how to get the motivation back? Thanks for your help!
