Ohhhhhh Boy!!!! This wild and crazy season of biggest loser is officially over. I really enjoyed this season although the finale was anti-climatic for more. I was not quite moved as I have been in the past. I am not sure why that is exactly but it is what it is. There were many things that I loved about the finale though and many things that I very much didn’t like. I am sure that many of the things I did not like you also did not like. So here is my review of the outcome of 6 months of hard work by the contestants.
THE GOOD
There were multiple things that were good! How about Mike. HAHAHA He looked like a movie star basically. Very handsome, more humble, and as genuine as ever. He just looked great and he glowed with joy about his new life. It was great to see it. I was also extremely happy with the results that Jerry and Kristenhad achieved while at home. I did not care for Kristen’s hair cut much and I had a tiny suspicion that Jerry had been drinking before coming onto the finale, but boy did they do fantastic. Their transformed bodies proved that it can be done. Jerry not only changed dramatically on the outside but inside too. What new and vigorous confidence he had.
Tara is back in model form and she displayed much gratitude for her transformation. Demonstrating that she is a winner at heart, she blamed much of her success on those who helped her. That is truly a winner’s attitude. I was also so happy to see that Danielactually kept at it. He rate of loss was not what it could have been but it was phenomenal to say the least. He stuck with it and I think he we keep sticking with it.
THE BAD
I think we all know what the bad is. At least the major bad. HAHAHA The only mom on earth that would vote her own daughter off the show only to leave her in the dust and embarrassment of not doing that great at home. The mom who could not stop talking about herself and manipulated craftily throughout the season. The mom whose tears were only regarding her own success rather than her daughter’s or others. That’s right, Helenwon the grand prize of being the biggest loser. I did not like this outcome much. She did drastically cut the weight. She was a bit too skinny looking but I am sure she will even out as far as her weight. It is a given that the contestants dehydrate themselves the best they can prior to the finale weigh-in and Helen was a supreme case for this. She was very dehydrated but it got her $250,000 dollars. I could just see the sadness in her daugther’s face while she pleaded with us to believe that what they chose was the best thing for both of them. Hog fooey and donkey dung.
THE SAD
I got sad for a few of the contestants. I was sad for the two African American ladies who I cannot recall their names at the moment. I really thought that the one would do great at home. I was also sad for Daniels partner who seemed embarrassed by the fact that he really never cared about losing weight in the first place. Finally, as you already know, I was sad about Helen’s daughter not having a great loss.
CONCLUSION
Now don’t get me wrong, every contestant did great. Even those who appeared not to lose much weight lost enough weight to make most of us believe that we can lose the pounds at a healthy rate while living out our normal lives. Even the ones that made me sad lost weight like normal people. I just think that if I had to go on TV in front of every in six months that I could make sure I lost weight like a crazy man just to avoid the fear and embarrassment that would be there if I did not do that great.
All in all it was a great season and I was proud of each of them for starting out on the life long journey of health.
