I miss Jillian

[Alexandra]

What happened? Why didn't Jillian come back this season? I love bob, but Jillian was the show.

This new girl is like a total non-entity other then her ENORMOUS fake boobs. Please tell me it's not over with Jillian. The show was so much more heart felt with her on it.

To be honest, I am sooooo glad Jillian is gone! She used to also be on the Today Show doing an exercise segment, and all she did the whole time was laugh and act silly. She was like a girl trying to get noticed by the football players. I thought she was insincere on the BL. She was also once on an episode of Kathy Griffin's D List; she acted like she was some big star and almost that she was too good to be there. Bob's the best; I'll give Kim a chance! Just my opinion.

I had my doubts about the new trainer, but I like her. In the last season I loved Jillian more than Bob and I think I like the new trainer because she is a lot like Jillian. She seems tough and to the point. My trainer, Dennis is the same way...military style...maybe that's why I like her.

She's ok but my vote is still for Jillian.
However, I bought one of her DVD's and she acted like a muscled cheerleader. Not appealing. I like the drill sargeant Jillian better. Not the flaky side.

I will give Kim a chance. But her outfits are a little streetwalkerlike....

i agree with Carrie. I don't like Jillian nearly as well on her DVD's as I did on the show.
While I love the trainers on the show, and did miss Jillian, I learned that it's not the trainers, or the host that make the show so great. It's the contestants. Love 'em or hate 'em-- I think we can all see a little bit of ourselves in them. I think it's takes so much courage to be on a show like this. I know many of you guys would love to be on it, and in some ways I would too. But I am just too private a person to want to go through something like this in such a public way. I commend them for their bravery, and commitment, and for their willingness to share that with the rest of us!

I was never a Jillian fan really so I don't have a problem giving Kim a chance. I've always been a Bob fan. I thought about buying her dvds but I don't know if I could deal with muscled cheerleader Jillian LOL

I'm just glad Bob didn't leave -I love him. I didn't care for Jillian's Military style too much on the show, but I know it worked for a lot of people. Regardless, I respected Jillian because she understood where these people were coming from. She had't been skinny all her life and she's living proof it can be done. This new girl though, she's worked hard but she has never been overweight. I just don't feel she has the understanding of these people. But I will give her a chance, maybe she'll show more depth.

I don't like the clips they included of her wearing bikinis, getting wet, and all that stupidness. This show is not about that -it's about the work not the trainers boobs and body. I hope it doesn't make the women on her team feel even worse having to see such a barbie every day. She did give her team the night off and they lost the weigh in. I think she could push them harder. Jillian wouldn't have given them a hug and a night off for sure. *sigh* Can't get too down on her because I love the show as a whole and now like it or not she's part of it. Gotta make the best of it.

Cheers, Jules

It's a little hard for me to get past that 'barbie' aspect too. I guess it's not her fault she looks that way, but I do feel like she's a lot more 'cheesecake' that Jillian was, or ever could be.
I guess we just have to give her time, and she how she interacts with everyone -- and see what kind of support she gives them when they're struggling.
I agree too -- no way would Jillian, or Bob, given them a night off!

I am watching last week's episode on Bravo currently. I read somewhere and I can't remember where that Bravo would rerun The Biggest Loser. It wasn't even in the tv guide I just happened to be channel flipping as usual. Anyways, I missed a little bit last week and I missed the part where Kim got mad. I didn't like that. I do not like trainers that punish you. I am so going for the Blue Team. Well I would be going for the Blue Team regardless but I don't like Kim.

[Missy]

I guess I just like that kind of trainer. Everyone is different, but I think Kim was right in being mad at her team last week. They weren't taking the workout seriously, were being lazy and not even trying. That would peeve me off too. I think she had every right to be mad. I guess I just liked when my trainer did those things to push me...but everyone prefers different things. I still think Bob is too easy..lol
