I have a biggest loser style pic but I had a regular bra instead of a sports bra on at the time. Don't want to get kicked off the boards for indecent exposure and showing people more than they want to see.

Wow, Joleen, I had no idea I had that effect on you!

It's called transference. Sometimes I just kill me!

It would be miraculous if I stayed up that late. Some channel played all the reruns last time. Hope I can catch it again.

The NEW show doesn't start until next week. This week was a "where are they now" episode. It was quite good. Everyone who was on looked pretty good, though most of them had gained at least some of the weight back.

They all seem to have been able to keep up the new life style. It was inspiring.

Very INSPIRING and I'm pumped for next weeks show... I was not at all surprised to see that Matt & Suzy had a little one I knew that was coming but I sure hope she gets the weight off she gained quite a bit during the pregnancy... I have decided that after weeks of attempting to restart my weight loss journey that I'm going to start Sept 10th and every Tuesday will be my weigh in day (just like the biggest loser's) this will be such motivation to keep me going and I'm going to do it and be gone! I was on plan for the past few weeks just not totally compliant, I have lots of stressful events that have occured and yes that's my excuse but alot of you know like I know that sometimes you just have to take a small break and relieve the stress factors in life and then get back on the train and with school starting and my oldest niece flying back home to her dad's house things are easing up!

I just need to disagree a little here. Many of us know that eating has never cured stress and never will and the sooner we come to that conclusion, the sooner we can start to get healthier. If I had used food for even the big stresses in my life while I was losing weight, I would not have made it. At some point we need to break the stress/food/comfort ties.

Waiver: This is just MHO, no slamming, please.

I agree, Jo. The thing is, stress is a part of life and it's always going to be around. Eating may make you feel better for a couple of minutes, but in the long run it just INCREASES your stress. IMHO, it's better to find other, healthier ways to handle it.

As for the show, I was a little disappointed in how many had regained some of the weight (fairly significant numbers, too). Not surprised, really, but disappointed. And it was interesting how they were so excited about Marty and ... Amy? ... getting engaged, but wasn't he married with kids? I haven't watched the whole show yet, but in the part I saw, they didn't even MENTION his family.

[Serendipity]

but wasn't he married with kids?

I did not know that!

[blondeangel7782]

I think maybe I was a little misunderstood or maybe explained things the wrong way... I didn't take a stress sorting break to use food for comfort I simply wasn't eating all the meals I should have been and when I was eating I was making healthier than usual choices it's just that stress tends to wear me down to a point where all I want to do is lay around and lounge... I'm getting back on track starting Monday and I'm not looking back it's been too long and I have located a picture of me that really has just put a whole new bulb in this brain of mine! So forgive me for not elablorating well enough...

He may NOT have been married before. I can't find a reference to his wife, but I thought they showed her during the season. Either way, he looks great even with the weight he gained back.
