The Biggest Loser UK 2009 - Episode # 1 / Part 4

[MyCheeringCharlie]

Miriam isn't even that heavy compared to a lot of the others. Hell, I've outweighted her before.

[tremirame]

1 stone=6,35 kg

[lindamichelle1]

im so sad angie has died :'(

[KawaiiAznPanda7]

@lindamichelle1 :o what happened?

[lindamichelle1]

@KawaiiAznPanda7  she killed herself :(

[KawaiiAznPanda7]

@lindamichelle1 aww whattt! do you know why?

[lindamichelle1]

@KawaiiAznPanda7 i dont know what the exact reason was, but i imagine it was just a combination of everything, apparentely shes had alot of problems in the past, and her girlfriend just left her, and i think she left the show. probably just the combination got too much for her :( so sad. she was the only reason i watched this series as im not from the UK

[graizesk]

there are many big female on this show! I'm amazed, usually women at BL weights about 120 kg, to be more than 130 kgs, its way too much!

[XristarasGamieste]

mad respect to these guys

[rosario508]

Man. Jennifer is a BEAST!

[wewii7]

i would totally fuck katey (:

[TapeStopper]

ahhhh the married couple :'(

[1010gymgirl]

so michelle ways 227

[1010gymgirl]

@1010gymgirl weighs

[Ricknotist]

the prediction came true

[stockmaster1982]

I don't like the soundtrack they use in the UK version..

But the Uk version does seem more serious compared

to the American version.. While the american version

seems more like entertainment..

[xilovedougiex]

kate garraway is SHIT!

[lms662002]

These trainers arent very nice, its almost like they are disgusted and angry at the contestants. In America, Bob and Jillian get mad at the contestants but they treat them like human beings and with kindness as well as yelling at them.

[reyecat]

carol is a wonderful mom....

[myonlineweightloss]

I can't believe that i was 15 stone probably big enough to go on this show , i'm so proud of myself for doing something about it tho :) (sorry for being selfish)

[XrAiDeN]

It's a shame that UK reality shows now go for the overly dramatic music like the American ones do.

[marmsam]

kate garraway is awful, definately not the right choice a robot could do better.

[juvmonkeymagic]

@marmsam Davina would have been perfect

[bibiling]

@juvmonkeymagic she's doin it for this year's one...well might have been recorded last year :D

[juvmonkeymagic]

@bibiling OMG yes ! have just checked the Radio Times, is on tomorrow at 9pm - hurrah !!!!! Davina and Biggest Loser - what a combo...

[lolly1114]

hiya does anybody know what song is played at the begining of this video?

[hartuki]

yep, it's called "divenire" by Ludovico Einaudi, great pianist. That's also the name of his last cd.

[SnapeHermione]

I agree, Kate Garrawy isn't the right choice for the presenter.

[Wiser72]

Men:

Jamie 400 lbs.

Mark 363 lbs.

Kevin 330 lbs.

Dave 324 lbs.

Rick 299 lbs.

[EvelynGB]

OMG! Looking at it that way I didn't realise that amie is the heaviet but almost 40lbs over mark! This is so scary considering that he is the youngest out of the men!

How does that happen at such a young age. It is so distressing.

[kourinthellama]

It's called eating too much and not moving your arse.

[mousstard]

According to my calculations. 7 of the 11 women weigh more than 300 pounds (136 kg)

[Wiser72]

No, only four of them are over 300 lbs. Starting weights: Lisa 360 lbs. Eunice 330 lbs. Jennifer 327 lbs. Katey 311 lbs. Sadie 299 lbs. Michelle 227 lbs. Carol 221 lbs. Maria 221 lbs. Michaela 219 lbs. Miriam 212 lbs. Raz 211 lbs.

[jade486]

Thank you much for coverting to pounds, i was wondering if i would ever know what they weight.

[1010gymgirl]

@jade486 you could of used a calculator

[jade486]

@1010gymgirl You know how some people cannot spell, well I am like that with math, maybe it has to do with my mom smashing my head into a math book when I was a kid. Who knows!

[adyli84]

I'm going to post their weights in kg at the comments of the next part in case anyone needs it.

[Rosevandertol]

that would be great adyli! Thank you :) I was just thinking how confusing, 23st 8lbs doesn't equal 23.8st apparently so my converter doesn't work :p

[adyli84]

That doesn't work because 1 stone is not 10 lbs but 14 lbs. Don't worry I posted the kg at the last part of every weigh-in.

[Nocturnalux]

oh, thanks a bunch for that!

[jeffw1267]

It seems like they edit this so they zip through the weigh-in pretty fast. I like that. The US and Aussie weigh-ins drag out way too long.

[adyli84]

I thought I'd like that, cause the Aussie weigh-ins are really bore me somethings. But this fastening out plus the unsensitivety of the host is really makeing it hard to develop any relation to the contestants.

[clomurphy]

the host is dreadful...never seen anyone so inconsiderate

[rosiechatinenglish]

yes, i can't warm to her - the oz and american hosts are very nice... ah well, cold british fish

[supergoten]

i think both Alison and Ajay are better hosts for the show to be honest. but the contestants seem good so i'll keep watching.

[puffykitten]

lol, it's funny actually

[WileyCoyote69]

And this presenter? She's CRAP.

She's got NO ability to talk to these people convincingly. And when she was consoling that one woman, it came off as a very unpalatable combination of pity and unconscious condescension.

For all that people pick on Australia's Ajay, she's brilliant compared to this one. Ajay goes off script occasionally, ditches the robotic talk and sound convincing, since she's been overweight. This one? Not so much.

[EvelynGB]

I Think she is pretty good! :D I love Ajay too!

[1tallpoppy]

I agree! She's lovely (but Ajay is my total favorite!)!

[WileyCoyote69]

World's WORST music editor.

I understand they need to go cheap on the prizes. But hiring film school dropouts to film and edit this? Yikes.
