Wow.  What an episode.  I was so moved by Migdalia’s struggle to deal with her emotions.  I have a similar struggle but not to that extent.  I couldn’t believe how angry she got and how she just wouldn’t talk.  She could have said anything but she couldn’t handle how it made her feel so she completely shut down.  When she was thinking of quitting because of this my heart just broke for her.

I was so proud of her mom though for telling her she needs to open up and work with Jillian.  That must have been a hard thing to do but she did it.  She was so encouraging when they were sitting at the table.  What a great mom.

I was mad at Bob though because he told Jillian to be mean and tough and then went in and totally ignored everything Jillian was fighting for and just told her to come back.  Don’t get me wrong, I’m really glad she’s staying but I felt like he could have at least encouraged her in a gentle way to express her feeling and not bottle them up.

And what about Michael.  He was totally messing around.  I’m so mad at him for having so little motivation to change his life.  He thought he had a pass this week but that came back to bite him in the butt.  Ridiculous.

What happened at the end?  Holy crap.  Melissa only loses one pound.  And then both Bob and Jillian jump all over her.  I thought it was awesome but how is next week going to be in the gym?  I thought she got caught in a lie two weeks in a row but she was too proud to admit it.  It’s been done in the past.  We’ve seen it before.  Everyone knows what’s going on.  Just fess up.

What do you think?  Did Melissa throw the weigh in?
