    Biggest Loser: Second Chance

    I went back and forth about whether to put this here or not. But ultimately I thought this fit better here. Did any of you guys catch this last night? It seems like every year the contestants get bigger and bigger. Man the story about Abby Rike was tear jerking.

    I also like how it's not familial this year and that Bob and Jillian are training the group together.

    I wish you gave a heads up. I love watching that show, especially with your dad when he is eating a big bowl of ice cream.

      Enjoyed the show. Letting that kid from last year come back was a great move. I thought that they might bring on Ron's other son based on everything that went down last year.

      There are some great stories this season...should be really good.

      Jillian needs to dial down the Bobby Knight motivational tactics.

      Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

        I am a big fan of the show. It's the only show that my wife and I watch together. I will always make snide comments about them not being able to finish some challenges, but when they showed that lady collapse on the beach after one freaking mile, it made me understand those guys are very sick people. I think I'm going to be a big Coach Mo fan, he seems like a good man.

          My wife and I love that show and wattched it last night. I couldn't believe how big some of them were, they certainly are finding bigger and bigger contestants this year. I wasn't going to go work out yesterday, but after watching it I got my ass up and over to the gym.

            I thought Ron's son would be on the show as well. I thought they were setting that up all last season.

              SmartPop is the shiz!

                I commented while watching it last night that the show always wants to make me grab a bowl of ice cream while I'm watching it. My roommate looked at me like I'm nuts (though that may have been a cumulative effect rather than just due to this one specific comment), but I really do want to grab something every time. Hopefully, it's because I've usually just exercised before watching it.

                  Max still isn't old enough, he was only 16 during last seasons show. He's got a facebook fan page though and on August 18th, he posted that he had lost 98 lbs so far, so it sounds like he is doing it without the show.

                    Who had the bright idea to take a bunch of fat people who haven't run a step in years and make them race a mile on the first day? Maybe they thought that in lieu of voting they would just kill off a contestant each week.

                    Oh, and I do enjoy a bowl of ice cream with my Biggest Loser episode each week.

                      This is the one show I watch evey week. I wonder what they do all day when they are not working out.

                          This is one show that my wife and I will watch together. I don't get the urge to snack when I watch, but I always want to go get on the treadmill afterwards.

                            From what I've read they work out about 6 hours a day. My guess it that they are sleeping the rest of the time.

                              I would also guess they're with diet consultants a lot as well. From what I recall of shows past, we rarely see them eating.
