I loved this show from the beginning because I really liked Meghan's spunk and sense of humor. She felt so honest and real.......now she's just real in a bad way. When she first began her weight loss, she was all in. She tried to recruit all her friends and family to the weight loss, get healthy program. But, when she started to slide backwards, she became a completely different, very unlikeable, whining, childish, brat. It was everyone's fault but hers. Last year when she moved in with Tina, I was just apalled. She was such a leach. She never contributed and just got in the way at every turn. Then there was the burst water pipe disaster. What did Meghan do? She moved into the same hotel room as Tina, her husband and all her kids! Again, she did absoutely NOTHING to contribute, but whined when she wasn't being taken care of continuously. What kind of friend is that? It's obvious to everyone that she is putting a strain on her friend's marriage, but she could care less as long as she is getting what SHE wants. I was curious how the new season would pan out, and, wouldn't you know it, it starts off with Meghan and Ashley ganging up against Vanessa like a couple of mean girls. They say it is because of Vanessa's attitude, but it's just good, ole fashioned jealousy, and they are acting like spoiled brats instead of grown women. I won't be watching the show any longer if it is going to be centered around this obnoxious person. Vanessa is right by saying that they knew what kind of person she was since high school. She's a lot to take sometimes, but it's just who she is. It's THEIR attitudes that have taken a turn for the worst. Watching them roll their eyes and whisper in the corner behind her back when it's so obvious that she's hurting, makes me want to throw up in my mouth. This isn't kindergarten! Grow up!

OMG, will there EVER be an end to these shows!!! They start in in September, and then they continue ad nauseum until the end of October only to be replaced by THANKSGIVING WARS!!! Followed by......you guessed it!.....CHRISTMAS WARS! Are people REALLY interested in these programs?! The wastefulness is staggering! If you are going to force people to watch such nonsense, at least give them enough time to make something halfway decent....and then there are the judges....where do you find people that don't have a life to judge these thngs! Just STOP! PLEASE bring back the actual COOKING shows! Find ANYBODY that has some cooking skills to teach! PLEASE!

I THOUGHT I was going to like this show. It sounded like a great NEW idea, and it was. It's definitely not boring, but they just don't leave enough time for each segment for the chefs to really DO anything. I mean, even the best of the best can only do so much with nothing. It's hard enough working with the conditions that they are working with, but to then put unreasonable time limits on top of it just makes it chaotic and uninspiring. It just seems like they are making a bunch of messes. On top of the unreasonable time limits, you have the "hosts" interrupting them every few seconds asking stupid questions, as if they have a few extra seconds to spare to chat. Geez, just get out of their face! It seems like all the cooking competitions now do this. They have the "hosts" interrupt the competitors over and over again asking mundane, irrelevant questions, taking the focus away from the actual cooking and disrupting the competition. I wish they would just sit and be quiet until it's their turn.
