Happy Biggest Loser Finale Day all! I actually haven’t been following along with every single episode this season like I have ever season in the past. The show just isn’t the same without Jillian, but, I still love how it motivates me and seeing all the changes in the finale.
It doesn’t hurt that it was total motivation to get up at 5 AM this morning to earn my “butt-time” tonight. I hopped on the treadmill for day 2 of Couch to 5K and checked that off my list first thing.
Before heading out this morning, I whipped up 5 minute Cheesy Sausage Breakfast Burritos for The Husband and I (6 points+).
Since I knew I’d be in training all day, I stopped and “fueled up” for class with a Venti Iced Coffee with 1 pump mocha, 1 pump vanilla and a splash of half & half (2 points+)
When I made up the Slow Cooker Chipotle Beer Baked Beans, I portioned out a few containers that included 1/2 cup Brown Rice with Sautéed Kale and 1/2 cup beans for a few quick grab and go meals for days like today. 7 points+
I forgot to show you all the flowers I bought these orange flowers at Trader Joe’s this weekend. I have to say there is something about seeing these bright orange flowers that makes me smile every day.
All afternoon I kept eyeing the candy pile on the table in our classroom. I decided it was worth it to indulge and had 2 fun sized M&M’s after my cheesestick LOL. I didn’t snap a picture but tracked them! (5 points+).
I LOVE nights when I do not have to cook because dinner is already made! 
3 crispy, crunchy, refreshing and delicious Thai Coconut Lime Lettuce Wraps for 9 points+
STATS (12 AM – 8 PM) ~ not too bad for a Training Day where I literally sat all day.
- Calories burned 2,545
- Steps taken 7, 786

Q’s
Did you watch Biggest Loser this season? If so, who are you rooting for?
Off to finish watching the finale!
Night all….
I really wanted Kim to win…she looked AMAZING!!
I was kinda disappointed with last nights finale…though I still watch the show faithfully, it’s just not the same w/o Jillian…I loved how she delved into the psyche and really got to the root…not much of that going on anymore, and I believe it’s the only way that many of these folks will continue to be successful.
I was rooting for Kim to win. She looked fantastic!
Hey Danica,
I was at TJ’s yesterday and I saw a new fat free bread. Its not multigrain, but its whole wheat. It might end up being the same amount of points as the discontinued bread. Check it out.
I couldn’t get into this season either. :\
I’ll be right over for some leftover lettuce wraps!! Kidding of course, but they look delicious. Have a great Wednesday.
I stopped watching mid-season for a while, but picked back up when I was at the gym kinda late and the show was on the TVs there, kinda towards the end of the season. Fortunately things had mellowed out by the time I started watching again. I am SO not a fan of the drama.
Out of the 3, I was rooting for Kim. She looks amazing too. A lot of people seem to have problems with some of her behavior and said she was a bully, but I guess that must have been going on in the eps I didn’t see.
Overall the season felt very meh.
No I didn’t watch it this season. The people were way to negative!!! It wasn’t inspirational all for me. I miss Jillian too!
I was disappointed with this season of BL. It wasn’t very inspiring, and got really negative – they turned on each other and started playing “the game” much earlier than in past seasons. My husband and I think it’s because they split up the teams, which both stripped away the contestants’ support system, and caused stress in having to compete against their loved ones. I hope BL learned their lesson and won’t do that again. As for the trainers, love Bob always, love Dolvett, HATED Jillian with the fire of a thousand suns, so I’m glad she’s gone. You didn’t miss much – let’s look forward to the next season.
I agree! Kim looked the best but Jeremy did lose a whole person there! Did not like either Conda nor did I like Jeremy. Without each other they would be long gone! Way too much drama this season, especially when the two went home. Like spoiled brats; they did not get there way! Hope next season is better. By the way, does anyone know how Kim lost 15 lbs. in one week?
Could not get into BL this season. I saw the winner on Live with Kelly and not crazy about his attitude/comments at all. Glad I did not get into it!
