On the show it looked like she hugged everyone but Rudy, totally dissed him. If you watched the stuff online, it showed that she gave him a big hug and told him to win the whole contest. Editing is very tricky. We have no way of knowing if the footage of Melissa smiling was even during the green team's weigh in. With that said, I wouldn't put it passed Melissa smiling away bitchily at the green team at all!

Yes after they threw a little hissy fit after their weigh in. Hell we dont know how they acted all week towards red. Maybe she did smirk during the weigh in and maybe it was justified

He seemed to genuinely defend her against Bob and Jill, and I can totally see him throwing himself under the bus for her if they fall below the yellow line. I am finding the Tongans less annoying each week. That will probably be the case until Pink, Green and Red bitch go home.

He was pretty much silent on the scale. He had nothing to say. He knows. This week he defended her only because they don't believe her. He thinks they should take her word for it.

Remove this ad If the show wanted to keep people from gaming the system with waterloading, they'd do the eliminations based on cumulative weight loss, not just week-to-week weight loss. Or lock them in a room for 6 hrs before weigh-in.

The weigh-ins are not necessarily one week apart simply because we view them one week apart. They might be much farther apart than that--2 or 3 weeks. So if someone loses 25 pounds, it does not necessarily mean "in one week." 2. The scale at the weigh-in is simply a prop. The contestants have all previously been weighed on a cattle scale, and those recorded weights are displayed on the fake scale at the weigh-in that is actually aired. This makes sense to me since the producers always seem to know exactly in what order to weigh peope/ teams in order to maximize suspense.

I did hear Jillian on her now defunct radio show that the weigh in is a serious big deal with lawyers et al, because it is a game show and the weights have to be v. accurate...

On another subject I think I know why Melissa was so upset at being called out by Jillian and Bob. Melissa is a criminal / family law lawyer in her home town. (Neither are big money makers in the legal profession) She passed the Texas bar in 2005 and is a sole practitioner which means she operates alone. It also means that basically she closed up shop while she is on BL. The conclusion to be reached from this information is that she doesn't have much (or any) cases pending or she wouldn't be able to get away for that much time. I think that she went on the show to gain some publicity HOWEVER being called out as a lyer is not what she intended. I mean, can you see going and hiring someone who was called out for lying on national TV. LOL I wouldn't hire her to clean my carpets. SO even if water loading is a viable strategy and even if lying about it to Bob and Jillian is OK in her book, the potential damage done to her reputation as a lawyer could be devastating. You would have thought she would have thought through that strategy a little better. (I need to give a shoutout to Carboys. (psst, I'm, sure you know that Jeff and Jordo are on the new TAR)

I don't give a shit if any of these people die of obesity, as long as they don't drop dead in front of me while driving I'm happy to see them suffer, to judge each other and call each other names! Well, actually, I like them coming in all roly poly and then getting to the finale and the transformation into something altogether different. The finale is the only show I actually watch and not fast forward through. Which is why I don't like starting with people this large--I'm too worried they WILL drop dead all the time and the entertainment of the big reveal is gone. Oh look, they went from really really round to just really round. I want Makeovers!

I think she's more worried about the other teams knowing cuz they'll turn on her for "playing the game." it's interesting that they have not shown the other teams discusssing it.

I don't understand how you think waterloading makes you lose any time at all, much less days or weeks. This is how I'd do it: work my ass off all week, do everything I can to lose weight, get stronger, learn how to eat better, figure out why I let myself get so fat, etc etc. Then if I had immunity (or my weight wouldn't count for elimination), I'd guzzle a bunch of water just before the weigh-in. Sure, you wouldn't know how you were doing in terms of your real numbers, but if you trust the process and the trainers you know you are losing weight and will see it on the scale when you next weigh in without the extra water. The point is to stay on the ranch as long as possible to be able to spend the time with the trainers. Bob and Jillian don't care if you waterload; they just don't like people lying about it because it makes them look like they are doing a bad job if someone doesn't lose any weight and claims not to be gaming the weigh-in.
