Black Team Drama

I was hoping the black team would lose the weigh in just to bring some humility to Filipe and Sione. I think the rest of the black team members realized they went way overboard with the 24 hours of luxury and reverted back to some old habbits that they still need to conquer. But I think that Filipe and Sione were still trying to put the blame on Jillian for not doing well. Filipe should have confront Jillian for not helping him workout while it was happening but instead he held in his feelings and blew up at her. Then him and Sione just decide to go work out with Bob. I think that avoiding emotional problems is probably a reason why both of them gained weight in the first place. He should go back and talk with Jillian reasonably without yelling instead of just training with Bob. I do agree with the blue team that Filipe and Sione training with a Bob is a distraction for the blue team's success and it is an uncomfortable situation for the remaining members of the Black Team. I think both of them are crazy not to want to work with Jillian since her record is better than Bob's when it comes to training the person that actually becomes "The Biggest Loser."

I sure wasn't happy to see the team win that was drinking and having a wild night. It clearly showed how many of them will end up putting weight back on, if they don't make important life changes.

It was definitely a crazy week! I really feel like Filipe acted like a child, and he needed to open his mouth and calmly, but forcefully asked Jillian for help--I have no doubt she would have helped him. I mean, she has a lot of people to work with, and a lot of weight to get off them all, I'm sure she doesn't intend to ignore any one player. Filipe and Sione are being completely unreasonable and childish by working out with Bob, I mean, you don't see Mike whining about it, and he continues to lose a lot of weight each weak. It really is attitude. As for the 24 hours of luxury, it was bound to happen no matter what team won, the other team would have probably eaten too much too. Personally, I put myself into their shoes, and was like, I would probably have eaten more than I should have as well, but instead of going to the bar, I would have gone to the hotels gym for a few hours. It is understandable, these people are depriving themselves so much, it is only natural for their body to fight back when it gets the chance--but they did overdo it, and they could have made up for it a little by going to the gym after dinner, and not the bar. Although, obviously Mike wasn't in on the binge drinking, since he is only 18. So I don't think it was the whole team. Well, I actually do believe they deserved to win the weigh-in. Obviously the work they did, as a whole--made it so they had a higher weight loss average than the other team. If I was the other time I would feel ashamed that I couldn't even lose as much as a team who had 24 hours of luxury and binging. I really wasn't sure how it was gonna turn out, because I figured with what they did they would surely lose, but the scale just doesn't work that way. I know from personal experience that sometimes when I severely restrict and exercise, I end up maintaining or gaining weight, other times I drop a lot, and then sometimes when I'm not even paying attention to what I'm doing I end up losing weight. So it really isn't set in stone. If I am not mistaken, I believe someone on Bob's team did gain a pound or 2 that week, so obviously something has to account for that. Obviously they didn't work hard enough, if they couldn't beat the team who did really bad food-wise for 24 hours.

it is just sad that the black team still won even after their 24 hours of luxery. if the team did not eliminate daine, they probibally would have won the weigh in.

Yea, this week was really bizarre. Jillian was right to get PO'd, but usually she doesn't throw a rant like that, usually she takes them in the gym and tries to kill them while she rants at them. But she's right, if that's their behavior when they get 24 hours of liberty, what sre they going to do when they go home. I'm kind of annoyed with Felipe and Sione. Enough with the pouting about Bob. Get over it. I don't think Bob should have taken them back. I think it hurt his team. I don't know if Jillian will be able to fix this, especially if Bob is saying that they can just work out with his team. I don't know why or how jillian didn't work out with Felipe, but he should have acted like an adult and brought it up instead of resenting her for her oversight. I think it's going to be up to the other black team members(specifically Mike and Helen) to get them and talk some sense into them. I think the black team's behavior was really bad this week, and in that respect, no they didn't deserve to win. But the numbers don't lie and that's what it comes down to, and the blue team just did not have the numbers.
