    Return of the Favourites

    This week is the return of 8 of the biggest losers from the past two seasons!

     I did get my wish WAL is one of them YAY!!!!!!

    ALso there is Pati, Adro, Tracy (yeah remember the FAT alliance), Munnalita, Damien, Kristie and Courtney!

    All have been through different trials since they left the show

    Wal had found himself creaping back up to 150kgs again! and then Jenny Craig came knocking!

    He said when the show finished and everyone saw him at the Finale due to his height and frame

    everyone thought he had been staving so decided he needed to be fattened up!

    Well hes back down and determined to reach his goal weight of 125kgs as hes going to be on the

    cover of the firefighters annual magazine! and says in his usual Wal manner "I've got to look good for that"

    When Munnalita started her journey she wanted to lose weight to have a baby a year later

    her and her husband are nicknamed "the infertile couple" but back in the house it was different

    she felt everytime she got up on the scales she felt all the questions AJ was throwing at her

    was them wanting to make her cry! Now she can laugh about it!

    She is focusing on the positives instead of feeling sad about not becoming pregnant and is

    enjoying a new social life!

    Pati is also back and has now a boyfriend she met him through friends in Cairns!

    She believes that the contestants will find love after the show wraps!

    They will feel so different afterwards and be more confident and have a lot more trust

    and be open to new situations including relationships!

    Damien went back to Darwin after the Finale and started back peforming in the band

    but after an alcohol free 6 months he found temptations of the real world hard to resist!

    He says he works in a profession where they encourage you to drink and the band

    gets a $200 bar tab every night!

    The alcohol back in his life took its toll and his weight crept up 18 kilos even though

    he was still training and watching what he ate! He got a shock!

    Now he only drinks once a week and is close to his finale weight of 141kgs

    and intends to keep going, he says its taken awhile to find a balance but the

    weight is now coming off consistantly! He sports a new look as well

    gone is his hair and his head is shaved!

    Adro is now as you all know the owner of The NEW ME weight loss retreat

    this fitness centre is for overweight and obese people with cooking courses

    therapy sessions and educational seminars as well as the diet and exercise!

    He hopes to one day build a nation wide franchise!

    Dont expect additions elsewhere with daughter Odessa and Eden Harper filling

    in his days, hes not ready to increase the brood just yet, although his wife

    would like another one Adro says "We'll see"

    Krisite has had another baby since season one and is now the proud owner of

    3 workout world stores and she is also a spokesperson for nutritional-supplement

    company Body Science and the newest sports reporter for Perth radio station

    96FM!

    Since having her 6th child she said she is doing Jillian proud!, she says Jillian was

    worried about her packing on the kgs she did but not anywhere near as her other

    pregnancy weights which in the past was about 20-30kilos. So jillian didnt need

    to worry and although she may come across as a tyrant Krisite says Jillian is very

    caring!

    Well we all remember the F A T alliance well Tracy is back im sure to stir the pot

    but we will see...Tracy also says she has made peace with former contestant and

    enemy Kristie...back when the show was airing she thought Kristie would sell her

    own grandmother for the money she now laughs but since returning to the show

    she says they have bonded!

    As for what else has changed Tracy had to reinvent herself as before she was a plus

    sized model now she has moved into the styling side of it all!

    While she has defied the odds and kept the kilos off she says it hasnt been easy

    she says its a struggle and is always going to be a struggle!

    Last but not least the man i met at my biggest loser audition Courtney Jackson

    He believes he knows why its so common for the losers to regain weight after

    the show..They are focusing on a competition, then after the Finale they think its all

    done, as Courtney reveals that this happened to him and how easy it was to put a few

    kilos back on!

    Courtney put on 7kilos and thought "Thats enough" and his stubborness was in helping

    him not to go backwards! He is now back to his Finale weight of 98kilos and urges

    others to remember the lessons they learnt back when they were on the show

    "You know how to do it so just go and do it"

     

    **Im sure its going to be interesting viewing when they all turn up in the Hummer!

    For this weeks show on Thursday and Friday who will be teamed up with who!

    Im looking forward to see some of my favourites!

    Re: Return of the Favourites

    I personally loved seeing Wal again as he is my all time favourite!

    Wal has only ever been for first weigh in to wear a pair of speedos

    not shorts and looking back at his 170plus kilo frame he was a standout

    man and still is i really think he looks better than what he did on the Finale

    Its great to see that winning personality hasnt gone anywhere!

    Just him and Tracy reminiscing about the day the rooms were changed

    It seems such a short time ago but two years have now passed since

    they were in the same position as the contestants!

    I also noticed Patti still has the pink tag on her watch that she had

    all through the last series of Biggest Loser and i was in admiration of

    Tracy now being 47 and looking stunning...that was my one of my audition

    reason for the show to be doing it and showing all the ladies over 45

    they can do it and Tracy for me has been the only one i can relate to in

    my age bracket so i do hope in future shows they start to look at women

    in their 40's because there is a lot of us out there that need some direction!

    I think they all looked fabulous and i love the addition of the trophie room

    Great place to relive those painful days in the house and on challenges!

    It would give a lot of hope to the contestants being shown not to fear

    the big bad world waiting for them outside!

    Well Done Past Contestants!

    Caution: Sarcastic and Cynical!!!

    Re: Return of the Favourites

    Did anybody notice the bus on the right of the screen always won?

     

    One would hope with the size of the prize money that the organisers of the show would do their best to make these competitions fair.

     

    If one buss had a slightly under inflated tire it would be significantly harder to pull.

    Re: Return of the Favourites

    Was good to see them all! I thought Adro looked fantastic! He's even slimmer than ever ( compared to the DVD he and Ray did )

    Was funny to hear him say that he always got picked last because he was the fat kid and now he's picked last (for the challenge) because he's the skinny kid! CLASSIC!

    I sort of half expected the others to be super slim (was that expecting too much?Embarrassed ) ...I guess they work hard to maintain their new weight as it is though.
