They acted like they were taking a big stand against something horrible.

Meaning the food bank chanllenge that Mark one would no longer go to his community. To me knowing that and still leaving just shows how selfish these people are. I lost the weight and thats all I cared about so screw you and thanks for nothing... To me it is just another example of how sadly self involved this country is getting. It's not fair so I quit. LIFE ISN'T FAIR!!! get over it!!!! Just worry about working hard and putting in the work and at the end of the day you will come out on top.

I am a yeller and I was SCREAMING at the tv. They already had 2 people come back and they managed to make their lives miserable and get rid of them. What REALLY gets me, what REALLY gets my goat is that 1). they should all know reality tv and the BL by now 2). they signed an f-ing contract- did they not read it? and 3). if THEY were the voted off contestants they would be laying on their pillow every night hoping and praying that they were given a chance to come back!!! And Mark?!? What an ass! He wanted to leave in place of his son Chism (who the f names their kid something that rhymes with jism???!!!) and now he doesn't want to afford him the chance to come back! DICK!<br /><br />And then there's Conda (I have a new name for her and it rhymes with Hunta). She's crying that Jeremy deserves to be in the finale NOT Kim!!! UGH!!!! He kept throwing challenges for her, giving her his prizes... WTF? THAT'S why he's not in the finale! He was more focused on her and NOT himself! <br /><br />Should I have written my own post on this topic?<br />Oh, and i hope to God we don't see those two asses at the finale! They don't deserve to try for the at-home prize! "THAT'S NOT FAIR!" They lose all their weight at home and then stroll in to win $100k...Frickin' Fabulous at 40https://www.blogger.com/profile/14853674225662132643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5311378112082969638.post-16870327904447244202012-04-19T15:08:27.100-04:002012-04-19T15:08:27.100-04:00Running Mom - I agree.

This week made me so mad though, I agree with what everyone else has said. This happens EVERY SINGLE SEASON. How ungrateful - their reasoning was that the at-home person doesn't deserve it because they haven't been at the ranch. UGH!

How dare you think you have the right to dictate the show and tell other people who were probably soooo elated to get one more shot that they aren't good enough. Not as good as you. And yeah. This crop of players were annoying from the get-go. <br /><br />Josher - you are so right. And I agree - I would wish on no one bad health and regained weight but if you can't even roll with the punches and deal on a reality show that is saving your life - then I'm worried about how you'll handle the every day "unfair" things.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06682010895114305173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5311378112082969638.post-88818137984329609562012-04-19T13:02:25.048-04:002012-04-19T13:02:25.048-04:00It's just another example of you might have th...It's just another example of you might have the weight off, but that doesn't mean the baggage that got you there isn't fixed.<br /><br />I'm not saying that the two contestants who left will gain the weight back, I sure hope they don't! But, I agree with you, worry about yourself! You can't focus on the fairness of a game. You can't control that or worry about it. Just worry about yourself.<br /><br />I really would have loved to have seen Buddy and Mark talk to the lawyer. Too bad they didn't, that could have been entertaining. <br /><br />Josher<br />mejosher.comJoshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15418037670796626312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5311378112082969638.post-60611881876049995242012-04-19T12:37:19.556-04:002012-04-19T12:37:19.556-04:00This is the first season of the Biggest Loser I ha...This is the first season of the Biggest Loser I have watched consistently. While I love the fact they are losing weight and getting healthier, I hate how so many of them are whining all the time and creating cliques.<br /><br />Regardless of if people are coming back or not, they just need to focus on THEM. Just because someone else may get a chance to win doesn't mean that they lose anything. They are gaining back their HEALTH and CONFIDENCE which is so much more important than money!!!<br /><br />Conda has always annoyed me. I am disappointed in Buddy and Mark acting like this. I liked Chism was more than Jeremy, always. Kim grew on me but she bothered me sometimes. But here's the thing... as the "TOP FIVE" they all seemed to gain a sense of self-entitlement. Wanting to compete with people who "deserve" it? Some people were unfairly voted off because of ridiculous alliances, or misunderstandings.<br /><br />As someone who hasn't watched past season, I *expected* a ridiculous turn of events and I am disappointed that these people who have EVERYTHING given to them--personal TRAINERS, a kitchen stocked with food, professional gyms, time off from work and home to focus just on themselves--they are going to throw it all away because they are hurt over something that was disclosed to them in the very beginning and they simply failed to read the contract properly.Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15599599254948606099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5311378112082969638.post-42748078768967051882012-04-19T11:59:54.006-04:002012-04-19T11:59:54.006-04:00You summed this all up so well!!

...I echo the contract thing... read your contract!<br /><br />And aside from that, why ruin your chances to win the money because you don't want someone to come back. They are coming back anyway, and you have walked away from the possibily of winning a lot of money (not just 1st place gets paid). <br /><br />Just plain silly and self-sabotaging.<br /><br />And NO, once you quit, you are out of any chance at prizes at the end.
