Biggest Loser Finale *SPOILER ALERT*

[Anonymous]

Jillian Michaels and everyone else associated with this show should quit if NBC doesn't try to rectify this. Why didn't they have a BMI requirement to win? I can't believe that not one professional associated with the show said we should require that winners be in the normal BMI range.

Shame on you NBC!! Shame on everyone who let this happen!

Somehow, though, this show has been around for more than a decade without anyone looking THIS bad and unhealthy. If anything, I usually weigh less than most of the female contestants at their final weight, and I'm not a stick.

This is the message NBC just gave to young women everywhere"

Fatty fat is not OK. If you are going to have an eating disorder-be anorexic. We shame the fatties, but we reward the skeletons!

155 is not an acceptable weight if you are 5'4".

I'm 5'9" and 155 is not acceptable for me either.

However if one is coming from 200lbs 155 and 5'4" is a vast improvement.

LOL I'm 175 and 5'6" and it's unacceptable how? I still have sex and guys still flirt with me.

Its fat!!! However, men will sleep with anything, doesnt mean you are hot.

I'm 5'3", and when I was 150, I was a size 8. I'm active and strong, and it's just the body type I was dealt with. While health is more important, I find that men are most drawn to me as a size 6-10. Being very skinny is less appealing, and being larger is less appealing. Strong with some softness is pretty sexy

But hey, speak for yourself. I'd rather be happy and healthy and strong - and still have men attracted to me at 145-150. It's not like I walk around with that number tattooed on my forehead - but it happens to be the weight I am, with the size/shape they find appealing.

How fat are you now?

Not sure, but I like being fit and strong instead of bitchy. Maybe you should try it? Maybe you should get those endorphins out by going for a run, instead of trying to anonymously poke and bully people on the internet?

It was just a question. You said you were a size 8 at 150. Did you see the light and get down to a healthy weight after that or have you let yourself go even further?

I am underweight and not cleared for running. Thanks, though.

Translation - you're skeletal and not strong enough to run. You should work on that. Maybe eat a burger?

And be fatter than The Biggest Loser? I think I'll pass.

I feel very bad for you that you can't see a healthy, happy middle ground. I really hope you're just trolling for reactions, because it'd be really sad if you're serious.

+100. Get some help, scary underweight woman, who is too unhealthy to run and thinks one burger = before pictures of the Biggest Loser.

Unacceptable for me. I don't like seeing a bunch rolls, back fat, and saddle bags. I look forward to getting into a bathing suit and love shopping for cute clothes. When I hit 155, I start looking like I have a middle aged body...you know, a menopausal mid-section. I can't imagine 175. Hope to never find out.

Apparently this is the first contestant to develop anorexia..

The way you pick on others pp, it sounds like you have terrible self esteem. Like you enjoy picking on others, because it's a distraction from your own self. I hope you can one day work on whatever you're dissatisfied with about yourself (you know, beyond weight and the scale), and be a happy, productive person to yourself and others.

I'm sure the way you spend your time and money is not acceptable to me, so we're even.

Not trolling. I am betting the jobs of eating disorder treatment professionals across the country just got a bit harder.

that is a 4 year old article about a contestant who was on the show 6 years ago. My understanding is the show does things quite differently now.

However I am not particularly surprised that while some contestants maintain a healthy weight others lose too much and others gain the weight back. The contestants all had very unhealthy relationships with food before the show and many probably never fully dealt psychologically with that relationship so once the cameras are off and the pressure is gone, the unhealthy thoughts and relationships resurface.

[Anonymous]

anyone with any sort of "relationship with food" is unhealthy IMHO.


It's food. I eat it.
