The Biggest Loser Australia 1 - Episode # 25 / Part 2

[HermioneYr7]

They've banned water gaining now I think...

If you gain weight and you have immunity, you lose it.

I'm glad they changed the rules, that's just unfair.

[HoldenRacingTeam12]

Wow I really didn't think Shane and Fiona would do that but there you go. Obviously now it looks quite bad but I guess next week you will see the gains...if any at all.

[archin11]

And Fiona is such a b!tch!

[REDWARTable]

Fiona looks like a Queen on a throne. She needs to be dethroned next week!!!

[julia98000]

That's just so incredibly stupid, I feel so pissed off at that b!tch!!! There are thousand of people that would like to be on this show to help them lose weight and that girl gains weigth on purpose?? So unfair to the others ... Harry, Cat, David ... :(

[sraphael]

I know there's now a rule where people cannot cheat via waterloading, but wasn't there another rule whereby if someone with immunity gains weight, they lose immunity? I thought I saw something to do with that in season two...

[Januarychic]

if this was the usa version she would of been out

[nejihyuga901]

Fiona is a fucking genius, man that's awesome!

[jessie61631]

devilish strategy!! i hate FIONA!! cheaTER!!!

[Skillsss123]

actually this is pretty legitimate from fiona. although I dont like her very much, its a good move.

[ninjasandunicorns103]

allaroundcoach Ikr!?

[DSAHOY]

Damn Fiona

[allaroundcoach]

how on earth can overweight people GAIN kilos when on a diet and training many hours a day???????

[FlypaperGirlSangue]

@allaroundcoach muscle gain

[kiquorice]

OMG blatant cheating should result in disqualification!

And drinking excessive water is only potentially fatal if you drink an incredible amount.

[Cielocchi]

Can't they just disqualify people? I mean, they're clearly cheating...wtf.

[KenyanPlayboyBunnie1]

@Cielocchi I hope biggest loser producers added it in in the contracts for other seasons that cheating that way cant be done or else your disqualified. In seasons after this people have gained weight, but they dont credit it to water...

[gatora555]

They should calculate Fiona and Shane's loss next week from their weight from the previous week- not this week. That would at least not reward them for the water loading. They have over 10 pounds advantage for next week.

It's part of the game and it happens every year, but they usually aren't so proud of it. It hurts to see them gloat over folks who are facing elimination.

[raaaaaarr]

Fiona is just getting too caught up in the game... if this was a game like Survivor or something, where it's all about staying in the game, it would be a great strategy.. But, she is sacrificing her own health, which defies the purpose.

[caosnyc]

wtf!!! is this the biggest winner :P

[ronin0990]

oh fiona she is such a sneak lol

[amoondria]

hummm I would take away their immunity for this strategy :/

[VTPPGLVR]

(Tracy): "A loss is a loss". Amen!

[XxRussianAngelxX]

no wonder that Fiona bitch wanted immunity , so her ass can gain weight . ughh . poor shane , at least he has immunity too .

[ICommentForU]

no worries..gain means that you might be gaining muscle..

remember muscle is heavier than fats

[GothBBW]

Seeing how hard they work and seeing them only losing such a little amount makes me feel better when I don't lose a lot in a week either.

[fuujennifer]

i havent seen strategic moves like this ever..us biggest losers go as far as not working out as harder..but never to the extent of purposely gaining weight..=[ kinda disappointed in them..they're there to play the game..but bottom line is to lose weight!

[thegreatwhitedog]

The whole point is that they do lose weight but camouflage it with extra water to get an extra big loss at their convenience. Not working out as hard would be stupid, this way they both play the game and lose weight. And it's used just as much in the US version, people just aren't as open about it (or the producers aren't showing it that way).

[lq91]

I dont get shane and fiona's strategy to gain weight?

[forcuera]

i feel bad for shane...please..stupid fiona

[yippeeioh]

i feel bad for adro. :'( poor guy

[Jacobrester]

Fiona is not interested in losing weight......i dont believe it is her main interest.....but she is playing the game intelligently

[YeKhim]

fiona is so cleaver, no wonder she can stay all the way, plus she is really a lucky girl. But I wonder is she guinuenlly here to lose weight or other purpose.

[Hilbilly655321]

i thought they had a rule that if you gained weight then you lost immunity because so many people water loaded when they got immunity? bah well whatever if i was on this show and it wasn't against the rules i would have done the same thing.

[thegreatwhitedog]

They implemented that rule later on, I suspect because of the way these contestants took advantage of their immunity. It was a good and much needed modification; people could still gamble with waterloading but at a much greater risk.

[myhighlanddream]

You watch how Fiona acts and it kinda makes you realize her bed-mates don't dump her because they dont' want to be seen with a cow in public...they just don't want to be seen with a bitch!

[YukinoBau]

[kleverrgirl]

why are the aussie contestants loosing so little compared to the US ones at this stage in the competition?

[MUFC50th]

she waterloaded. So she can loose next week more weight I think.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

[suhayla11]

how do you gain 5.7 pounds (when you're working out)? dammm. it doesn't seem possible..

[NickijoeCanuck]

serious man-boobies going on....

[misundrstd2000]

part of me is really mad fiona acted all proud of herself for gaining...like flaunting, but part of me was also happy she didnt act upset...that she was truthful in her strategy

[teddyboysmith2]

fair play fiona! your fit!

[madtowngal22]

man this season is like a fan club for Neal from the American version. he did this water thing as well.

[doxiedust]

the water weight trick was somewhat clever, but i just think it was kind of cheating shane and fiona out of actually having to work hard to lose the weight.

[sakurarules122]

why they gaining weight i thought they lose it

[angelamarie42]

If anyone has watched the US one they drop sooooo much more weight, they don't act like children at camp. I really don't understand this at all. I hope that if I watch the next series it's not such a disappointment. What in the world is this? Are they all going to go home and gain their weight back plus more? :( Disgusting!

[vbballcutie13]

ugh i really dislike fiona..i wish one would lose immunity if they gained..i think that should be a rule. i think it is in the later cycles

[jacquelineveronique]

very smart to drink water that is just zero calories you will piss it out in a second but the gain counts to next week. Very smart.

[scalpeldude]

Shane and fiona did a smart move the weight is just water now. Wal did that before he is the smartest guy like shane

[AlecsMandoMagic]

What Moreba said...

[zallight]

Fiona is a moron... that's so wrong how she and Shane did that.

Immunity should be ripped away if there is a gain, no doubt. That is not fair for the next week.

[totallyturtles]

Fiona is such a cheater!

[rabidsara]

Wal did the same thing last week, which is why his numbers were so big this week.

[Moreba]

They shouldn't get depressed about not losing that much as they did at first, they are now losing FAT, not water, and gaining MUSCLE which weights more than fat.

And the fat they are losing now is not coming back that easy :) cause the more muscle you have the more calories you burn.

[marsflamesniper]

LOL she totally admitted to water gaining. Thats why they took it off. LOL

[wwrpd77]

I wasn't expecting that out of Fiona - interesting.

[hardactinman]

why would shane do that?

[SolariaAngeli]

She does look a bit bloated. Water may retain for who knows how long. Very risky.

[rabidsara]

About water retention.... body maintains homeostasis. Kidneys can detect very minute changes in concentration and the person will just urinate it out, so it should leave fairly quickly. Also I think her injury caused her to retain more water as well(her swollen ankle), which is why it may have been more than she expected.

[Boggy133]

that is actually dangerous,

there is such a thing as "water poisioning" the body taking in that much water can cause the cells to swell and release salt and massively screw up homeostatsis, there is a documented case of a man from Japan who died from this....I'm sorry, but that's a huge gamble for just a few pounds.

[rabidsara]

That's why they don't just drink water but have salty food on the side to retain water naturally. Shane explained it in the reunion ep. They eat high sodium food like processed cheese and then drink water so it is retained. If they're doing it correctly they dont just drink water, but something tells me not all of them are. The following week they have a very low sodium diet and it flushes the water out.

[rabidsara]

That is what's truly considered "water loading."

[AshleyCantori]

Drinking excessive water though is a fatally dangerous risk. Hope it doesn't complicate things. Though, I'm definitely not a Fiona fan. Go, Wal & Christi. Ultimately, Wal should win. He really worked hard for it.

[mestrejeb]

I agree!!

[wwrpd77]

LOVE Wal and Kristi

[marsflamesniper]

You DO know this show is from 2006 right? Or are you just watching it all now?

[Nurikansly]

Fiona got very smart technic... I'm admired of her, she is smart
