I think I’m the only Bt’er watching Biggest Loser this season. But I’m going to say – Go Sonya!!!!!! Fell in love with her week 2 and I hope she goes all the way. Also like Toma but still, Sonya rocks. For at-home winner, rooting for Woody. Maybe Scott. Anybody else watching?

Hi sweet Pam!   I thought I was the only one watching this season.     You and I are alike in rooting for Sonya.  She's been killing it in all weigh-ins and I really admire her positive attitude and determination.   Toma would be my second choice too and Rob a distant 3rd.  Toma's personality didn't come out in the show much.  He was kind of like milk-toast but he's worked really hard and done well.  With Rob I'm more concerned that he can get his life straightened out more than dropping more pounds.  Sure seems to have so much baggage and not much positivity in his life to hold on to.   I kind of like Jordan for the home win.   He looked so fantastic on the "where are they now".  I've liked Scott and Damien from the beginning as they seemed like a genuinely great guys who people look up to.   

I really like the new trainer Jen this season.  It seems she really connected with her team on a deep level.  Jessie's team sure got eliminated fast and it seems the blame would be on him for that but he also seems like a nice guy who cares about the contestants.  Of course they're required to look that way in the show but it came across as pretty real to me.  Dolvett is just so gorgeous to look at that I have no complaints about him.   

This is the first season that my daughter watched with me so that made it enjoyable too.   Looking forward to next weeks finale!

I missed the 15th but watched that episode and last night's episode last night. I like Woody, but I like Scott a little more. Sonja has been VERY consistent and never had a melt down. Rob is all about emotional eating....issues. I just continue to be amazed EVERY SEASON at the "before" and "after" pictures. I also like Lori.

I'm a big fan of the QB Scott. He was the most positive guy ever on this show.

I hope he wins the at home prize and goes on to inspire people.

I'll admit it is one of the few reality shows I watch consistently. I too like Sonya and Toma. I have no earthly idea how Rob has made it this far, he is still full of excuses and really hasn't lost that high of a percentage of his weight, although it does appear that he is starting to "get it." Of all of the final 10 contestants I hate to say it but I think he is most likely to put all the weight back on. I love Scott, what a good soul. Hope he wins the at home prize.

Yep, I'm watching, too.  Sonya, Lori and Scott are my favorites this year, not digging Rob, wasn't digging Blake.  That said, as someone else posted, Rob seems to have the most baggage that didn't seem to get resolved.  He's the one I worry about the most once the show is finished.

I had forgotten about Blake. No, she does not "get it". She will, maybe already has, put everything back on. Issues....

I watch every year and have the same thoughts as most, I really like Sonya and Toma, think Rob is going to self destruct within one year after the weigh in, he's just a big cry baby, and I think the real world is going to kick his butt unless Biggest Loser gives him a job and keeps after him.

Now, no one has said it, but I have noticed that Toma and Sonya have gotten closer and closer throughout, and almost every shot last week had both in frame. They will be hooking up!!

By the way, off topic somewhat, but please tell me that I'm not the only guy that thinks Jen is just smoking hot beyond all belief.

Ok, I'm a totally hetereo, married woman but I agree that Jen is really smoking hot. She is beautiful on the outside but she comes across as being even more beautiful on the inside. I agree with Brenda and think she is a great trainer. Hope BL keeps her next year and doesn't bring Jillian back.

Whoa, I hope you are right about Toma and Sonya!!!!!! I've always thought it's funny that BL has more marriages than some of those other shows (like The Bachelor).

Very happy the way it turned out. Toma was the quiet one but did his work at the ranch and really got it done at home. Everybody that stayed at the ranch for any length of time looked great.

I always feel bad for those that go home early and come back without that WOW transformation when some many of the other do. Hopefully they reach their goals even if it take a little longer.

Jordan did a great job at home as well, I almost didn't recognize him

I really like Jen as a trainer. Not only is she smokin' hot but she is actually working out with the contestants. Something Jillian never did and it's no drama with her like Jillian yelling then pretending to be their friend.

Hopefully Jillian stays gone and they keep Jen.

Agree with you on everything. While I did want Mike to win at-home, Jordan really nailed it. Admire that he did that amount of work with a small baby at home. Most of the contestants look totally amazing and I hope the lifestyle change really sticks for them.

And yes, next season if they don't bring Jen back, I will stop watching. She is everything they should have for a trainer. Before the show last night, was reading one of my Women's Running mag. Surprised to find an article with Jen, some of her recipes, and her tips. I thought everything she said was very nutritionally sound.

I'm sorry but those that really don't transform that much 18-25%, just aggravate me no matter when they leave. I just can't help but think that they took a spot from a person that would have used the opportunity better. I mean when you look at Zena, I think about her having money, and trainers and every opportunity to succeed and that's what she puts out, Come on.

I like Sonja.  It's a shame to lose by a single pound!  But I think she changed mentally too and will be really great moving forward with her life.

The spanx could not hide that she needs skin removal surgery though...I hope she gets it!

She was still pulling big numbers even after she was little...that makes me wonder how some people lose weight vs. others.  For most people it gets harder as you get smaller.  I wonder sometimes why others seem to be able to keep dropping big numbers fast....
