Biggest Loser Season 8, Episode 10: Rebecca Goes Home & Finds Love With Daniel!
Do you find it interesting that The Biggest Loser series seems to have nearly as much luck in love as they do in weight loss? Why is it that the Bachelor/Bachelorette franchise can only boast ONE marriage, while TBL has 3 marriages and at least 2 happy/ serious couples under their belt (ahem, no pun intended!). Last night Rebecca was sent home (she was up against Liz) & it was revealed on The Jay Leno show (although I already knew because Daniel has it on his facebook page) that she's in love with Daniel! I've got to be honest, I was a little surprised...she's 5 years older than Daniel for one thing. But as Rebecca put it, 'I fell in love with my best friend.' Who can argue with that folks?!
This week was make-over week & the contestants all looked amazing! We had the beard-trimmings & hair-dying & fancy clothing. I have to say, I really like Tim Gunn (the fashion dude)...he seems to be genuine & really relates to the contestants, he's able to talk to them about their fears & encourage them to try new things in a way that does not seem at all contrived. They all looked amazing. I have to say, this season I was reminded once again of my own journey. I feel like I made it to 'make-over week' and then that was it, like somehow my journey was over. I would LOVE to be able to run right through this plateau & experience the success the contestants do as they leave the show and prepare for the finale! I can imagine I'm not alone in these feelings!
The weigh in was surprisingly good, especially in light of last week when the contestants all lost so much weight. Amanda reminds me so much of Season 6 winner Michelle. Michelle for the first 8 or so weeks just seemed to coast along, never really had the HUGE weight losses of the other contestants, then one week pow, she hit 10 lbs & she never looked back! Our little Amanda may be the sleeper winner this season! Otherwise, it's looking pretty strong for the 3 men, Danny, Rudy & Allen have all been playing their cards right and setting themselves up to make it to the finale. My guess is that Liz will not be in the finale, but then again I didn't think Helen had a chance last season either (this is why I'm a blogger & not a Vegas odds-maker!).
Rebecca looked beautiful, confident, fit & happy at the end of the show & on the Jay Leno Show. On Jay, she revealed she's lost a total of 122 lbs & currently weighs 157 lbs. Her shoulders & arms were cut & she had on a mini-dress that showed a lot of leg & when she sat down her legs looked really strong & muscular! Her goal is to open a gym for overweight children! Check out her video below.

I have flair in writing and wish to grow ahead in the same field. Can you help me out in knowing how do you manage to be so good and perfect in your writing? I want to know if there is any coaching class or exams that I may have to join to polish my English language.
Inside closing analysis, the hard individuals who survive the hard instances do so given that they've selected to react positively to their predicament. Difficult instances hardly ever final, but tough individuals do. Tough men and women stick it out. History teaches us that each trouble has a lifespan.
I must admit I didn't think Toy Story 3 would be worth the wait but I think the movie delivered. Very good movie and a touching ending that even made me tear up.. just a tiny bit. :)
