'The Biggest Loser's' Tom on Trainer Jillian: "She's Like A Stinky Pig"'
Week two on "The Biggest Loser" is always the toughest for the contestants. After pulling large weight loss numbers their first week on the ranch, the second week numbers go down significantly. Grey team member L.T. Desrocher felt the wrath of this last night when at weigh in, he had gained three pounds, which ultimately got he and his dad Tom voted off. That setback hasn't stopped this father and son team from their weight loss goals though. L.T. has now dropped a total of 92 pounds while Tom has shed off 77 pounds so far. L.T. has been able to quit smoking. Tom has gotten off the nine pills he was required to take daily for his health problems caused by his excess weight. In a conference call with reporters, Tom let loose on what he thought of trainer Jillian Michaels' training methods.
"You can pretty much keep Jillian. I didn’t care too much for her. I understand she has a job to do but she really doesn't treat people like adults. She treated most of us like children, which I didn't take too kind to. You see a lot of it on the camera, it’s kind of like a stinky pig -- they pretty it all up nice for the audience but she.. her mouth is just, it's incredible. I have to thank her because she probably saved my life with what she did, but didn't care too much for the method in which she did it," he explained.
Tom and L.T. are not the only ones who have benefited from their new healthy lifestyle. Tom's wife (L.T.'s mom) has shed 27 pounds herself thanks to his new dietary regimen.
"Now I have learned what is good and what is not so good when it comes to simple things like you know white bread and pasta. I get whole wheat and stuff like that and more fruits and vegetables to snack on versus potato chips and ice cream and stuff," he added.
L.T. has taken to working out twice a day and has joined several different gyms to stave off boredom. In order to continue his weight loss goals, he is heeding the advice he offers to the young kids he coaches football.
