Warning....This is going to be a very volitile post.
I was so psyched to leave the gym last night after a 2 hour ass kicking, so I could watch BL. No wonder why they didnt want to broadcast this installment. Are these women kidding??? Several things stood out for me here.
Jillian said something about being able to eat up to 1,900 cals a day without gaining. Um I beg to differ. If I even look at a high cal food, I am wearing it.
What was up with the one woman on the red team saying that she didnt have time to count calories for the rest of her life? Well then she obviously doesnt have time to be THIN and HEALTHY. I about fell off the couch when I heard that comment. I have to admit that I was really worried about Amanda. But I shouldnt have been. She was so worried she would fail, so she worked even harder than the others and she came out on top. At the weigh in she looked a good 15 years younger. I bet she will never smoke again. The blue team deserved to win, and they had all around better personalities than the red team. (Amanda excepted). I was bawling my eyes out when the men came home. And laughing when they couldnt keep up with Bob. I am sure they are in tip top shape, but if they arent used to a specific routine and trainer, then even they can struggle. It was great to see the blue "angels" shine. In the end, I was really disappointed with the Red Team. They never seemed to "get it." Yes everyone looked good, but they could have done more. I think they gave up on themselves long before the weigh in. Makes me wonder if they will keep their current weights, lose more, or go back to the way they were? In the updates, Amanda looked even smaller than the weigh in. Makes you hyper aware of how important being accountable and consistant are in the world of weight loss.
Just my 2 cents...
