There's quite a few complaints on the official BL board about this series. Many don't like the wives -- calling them whiners. And there are some who think it's stupid to have people on who used to be in great shape.
I don't understand that arguement at all. Look at Matt, from BL 2. They never let us forget he was such a great athelete, who had let himself go. I was never a fan of his, but I think he was pretty popular, and I know he was on the other message board. So what's the difference? It's ok, for a guy to get fat, or because we heard all about his emotional issues, and heard all his excuses, they are more supportive of him? I'm sure these women have had their own personal issues to deal with, but we don't get to know them as well, in the 'special editions'.
I thought the one lady who had had a gastric byp**** and lost weight, but then gained it all back, was great to feature. I don't really have a problem with this operation, but so many are having it done, and it really is a serious operation. It is not an automatic cure either, and I'm glad they showed that. You still have to do the diet and exercise.
I hope some people who were considering this, are now re-considering, and realizing that there are no short-cuts, or easy fixes. I hate to see people risk so much for this surgery, when they might end up not getting the results they want.
I didn't much care for the little marine wife. I don't know-- she was just so super-competitive. I know it's a competition, but for something like this, I think most people would be genuinely happy for anyone losing weight, whether they are on your team or not.
It's probably just editing, but she didnt' seem to be that way.
I don't know who I'm rooting for. I'm just hoping to see some major changes.
Enjoy the show tonight!
