What a bunch of losers!

I think that the current American Biggest Loser is my least favourite ever, in fact yes, yes it absolutely is.

This week just cemented it for me. What an absolutely awful bunch of people — Heba? Vicky? Come back, all is forgiven.

Ok not quite, but at least those guys were playing the roll of the bad guys, this current lot really are just…bad.

What a bunch of whiney, whingey, moaning, depressing, negative, uninspiring people they are. If ever a whole seasons worth of contestants is going to gain the weight back it’s this lot, it seems like they just don’t get it at all — none of them struggled with the temptation, it was just shovel it down as fast as possible and for what? The power to cast the soul vote? WhoopDeDoo. If they were playing for a golden ticket to the finale I would have got it, but the prize was actually shit and they trowelled that food down as fast as their little hands would let them.

Kristen was the only one not gorgeing, but was that because it was wrong? Against every thing they’d learned? A bad example? No, it was simply strategy, part of her game plan — speaking of, I was counting the use of the word ‘game’ this episode, and gave up after number 50!

They’ll all be fat again within two years. Fact.

sione-faAlso, Sione becoming a personal trainer — I am not OK with that. It’s nothing personal, I think it’s great he wants to motivate and help others in that way, I just don’t think that several months on the Biggest Loser ranch qualifies someone for that position. Seriously, he’s been overweight his whole life and healthy for a few months — he got healthy in a very extreme and unrealistic environment — he needs at least a few years with the weight off, some training for himself by other trainers and some serious eduction first.
