Biggest Loser - did you vote?

FavoriteOne · May 2010

Did anyone vote last night? Who did you vote for and why?

FutureMsAlexander · May 2010

I'm only halfway through last week's episode! Bah!

FavoriteOne · May 2010

I voted for Daris for two reasons.

1. I can't stand Koli anymore. He turned into a cocky jerk the week that Stephanie left. I can't stand his arrogance.

2. Daris is such a sweetie. How often have we found ourselves in his exact position? His heart's in the right place, but he just fell off the wagon a bit. I really hope he wins the whole show.

raynes · May 2010

Can someone give me a synposis of last nights show? I totally forgot to set it to tape... bad raynes.

sparklingdiamond · May 2010

I had a hard time deciding who to vote for. But I chose Daris. Koli has been very cocky and it does piss me off a little. I was so glad that Michael and Ashley made it though! I didn't want either of them to go home!

sparklingdiamond · May 2010

Raynes-

They ran the Biggest Loser marathon and Daris beat the record (which was 4 hours 55 minutes....he did it in 4 hours 2 minutes). He came back and had gained two pounds. Michael and Ashley lost the most so they are definitely in the final three. Daris and Koli were at the bottom.

cac847 · May 2010

I voted for Daris because he kicked ass in the marathon.

raynes · May 2010

Ah, right, the BL Marathon. Thanks sparklingdiamond.

csuperstar02 · May 2010

Raynes -

annnnnd Daris @ first said that he had run so much/trained so hard that he must have gained. Of course, Jillian & Bob hit him w/ the BS stick. He was basically teetering on the edge of the wagon b/c of eating like cereal and dealing w/ like emotional issues, started beating himself up which made him fall off and do some binge eating.

Nebb · May 2010

UUugh im sorry but you guys suck. Daris sucks. He is such a little whiney baby, he TRAINED too much so he gained weight?! Come on!! He totally pulled out the crocodile tears to win votes.

Koli is hardcore, he has busted ass the ENTIRE show to reach his goals without any whining or complaining. He is a winner. He deserves to win.

FutureMsAlexander · May 2010

Ok. I'm kinda catching up now. I would have voted for Koli because I'm still pissed Sam is gone

Also I think Koli is the most determined and deserves to win. I think Daris is really impressive, but I don't think he is THE biggest loser. I'm rooting for Michael, but not to win and I can't believe Ashley is still on the show. She really surprised me.

I'm so glad somebody said it. GO KOLI BEAR.

Nebb · May 2010

Im almost POSITIVE that koli only lost 13lbs because of the training he was doing in vegas - he was probably bulking on muscle as well as losing fat, but all they determine the standing is by lbs. If NBC didnt hate canada, I would have voted for koli as many times as physically possible.

Totally agree - he is rrrrripped. Daris is a cry baby weight gainer face stuffer loser.

raynes · May 2010

I'm with Nebb and andy, I would have voted for Koli. Sam was an all-star. I think Koli's "attitude" is deserved. Dude's busted ass to get where he is.

Nblueeyes · May 2010

I also voted for Daris. I think Koli is too cocky and that has always been a huge turn off.

In the end though I want Michael to win. I just think the work he's done is amazing and he has a great smile/personality.

shellydiane820 · May 2010

I can't believe people voted for Daris.

He clearly doesn't have what it takes to be the biggest loser. This week proved it. He caved as soon as he got home, he hasn't learned anything. Yes, he finished the marathon first, but if he wins the show, he'll go back home and gain the weight.

Yesterday's episode disappointed me, seeing all the previous people who have put the weight back on. I don't want to see another winner gain the weight.

I'd rather see someone like Koli win, who I believe can keep the weight off. Who cares if he's cocky at this point in the show, now its about winning, and I think he clearly has what it takes over Daris.

FutureMsAlexander · May 2010

Daris just lost mostly hair weight anyway.

Nebb · May 2010

Now he just looks like lyle lovette.

FutureMsAlexander · May 2010

YES HE DOES! I mock him on the TV and ask him about being married to Julia Roberts.

Seriously, he made amazing progress. But he is not the biggest loser.

hz80408 · May 2010

Darius,

I don't follow the show on a regular basis...but last night I was at the Cubs game and sitting next to his college room-mate! The guy asked us to call and vote for him. Small world!

Cercamom2011 · May 2010

My vote was for Koli. I like Darus, but IMHO would be one of those that goes and gains all the weight back if he wins. I think Koli is arrogant, but believes that's the mindset he needs to win. Hopefully he tones it down!

btrflykate1230 · May 2010

I voted for Koli. GO KOLI!

jenb1205 · May 2010

hz... we were at the Cubs game last night too, although we did a rooftop instead.

I stopped liking Koli and Sam awhile ago and I think it has something to do with their friendship with Sunny and O'Neal, who bothered me on some weird level from the beginning. But yes, I realize I am probably the only person who watches the show that feels that way (my FI loves O'Neal). But I felt really strongly that Sam should have just sacrificed himself being that he was at his goal weight. And I love Ashley and Michael for an inexplicable reason.

Anyway... I would not have voted for Daris because he will be the person who gains it all back from this season. I was shocked and totally freaked out by him. To be running that much and be as well trained as he was/is and to put on weight like that shows that he was eating an insane number of calories.

But I also think there are some underlying issues with Koli too. Like Bob said, what happens when he does actually go and stay home? The other Tongan guy that ran with him had put a lot of weight back on IIRC. But with a cousin like RIPPED Sam, I would think he's got a better shot.

Oh no, Im right there with you. Sunshine & Oneals relationship was WAAAAY creepy, and way too touchy feely and gross. Yuck-y. All of the crying, and the hugging, and constant blubbering all over eachother.

Pirata13 · May 2010

I voted for Koli.

Daris is a whiny baby. I think Koli's cockiness is more him actually getting confidence he never had. Daris fell off the wagon, admitted he was dealing with his issues the same way he always did, and that's why he gained weight. Then tries to say it was because he trained.

And Michael is another crybaby woos. That fit he threw last week was so AW-ish. He bothers me far more than anyone else's attitude has this season. Aside from Melissa. I hate that woman.

kavc016 · May 2010

I also voted for Koli. He is determined to win and get fit. Daris is just going to gain all the weight back. Plus i now think he is a baby.

smorreau · May 2010

This was a tough one for me... but being Canadian... I don't get to vote.

Part of me feels bad for Darus. We've all been there at one point. He's so young and I remember using food as comfort at that age. However, does he *deserve* the vote? Probably not. Hopefully this is a lesson for him.

Koli is cocky but I don't find it that annoying. He's no Melissa, that's fo sho'! He's just proud and feel good about himself for the first time in his life. I congratulate him for this.

At any rate, I would love it if Mike or Ashley won. I'm dying to see their transformations. I wonder how much time has passed between the last weigh in and the finale.

jenb1205 · May 2010

Nebb... good to know I am not alone.

I think they said last time about 2 months had passed between the marathon episode and the live finale. I think they started filming this season in October or November of last year so it's been a total of 8ish months, I'm guessing. I can't wait to see the finale and my money is on Ashley's mom to win the at-home.

Melissa = second coming of evil Tracy

ajopus · May 2010

You can vote 10 times, so I voted 7 times for Koli and 3 times for Daris. They've both worked hard, and I was really impressed with Dari's marathon run and his progress the entire season. I just think Koli has a better shot at winning, and he has really blown my mind over the course of the season. Yes, he's a little arrogant and too into the game, but I still love him!

RobbyC81 · May 2010

I didn't vote for etiher! I want Ashley to win!

I think it is really sad that Koli had to move to Vegas and couln't handle being at home. THat is NOT a good sign. You cannot run away from your past. And you cannot try and be Sam. YOu need to find who Koli is!

Daris is a really nice guy and has worked hard, but I think there is more going on than we know about. He is very mentally unstable in my opinion. Why is he trying to find love so badly. It is not something you can plan or force and being overweight isn't the reson girls are not into you. It's too bad, because he seems really sweet and kind. I think he has a BIG crush on Ashley!

Go Ashley!
