I did the Ideal Protein Diet that is supervised by my doctor. I had to undergo chemotherapy 2 years ago when I was 45. I had absolutely no signs of menopause when I started and my hormone levels checked a few months prior where that of a 25 year old. Unfortunately when you are in your 40's, chemotherapy drugs age your ovaries 10 years and it put me in early menopause. I quickly gained 25 pounds. I've never looked so awful. In April I was at an all time high of 176 pounds. I started that diet and by mid July I was at 145 pounds. It really gets rid of the perimenopausal abdominal obesity/fat that is so common. It's a ketogenic diet except it's low fat and not high fat. 

Thank you!  I shot up 25 pounds in a blink of an eye, like I skipped over a pant size all together. It freaked me out and then not being able to get it off is frustrating me.  I’m checking out the Ideal Protein Diet now!

I hope Tara comes back stronger, and better next year.

If VK comes back, I'm out.     I will not watch another season of blatant favoritism, and ignoring the fact that VK gained a lot of weight, and disrespected any help she was given.

Look. I don't think CMT has focused on her enough to know whether or not she's making mistakes---which I'm sure she does from time to time. But on look alone, I would have taken Tara over her. 

I only asked because her group leader said that week.

I agree. If she makes training camp next year, I’m done.

As much as I dislike her, I teared up when she said  she wanted her mom but didn't want to tell her. 

Color me a cynic and skeptical, but I believe that TK received a telephone call -- before the cut.

Ok, tug at my heart strings when VK said she didnt know how to tell her mom. I dont hate VK. Serioisly...no 18 year old is adult. 99% of 18 year olds are still completely taken care of by their parents. I honestly think VK just needs real adult life experience. She needs to get out from under her parents and experience what it means to make all of the decisions for ones health and well being. I am interested in if she really does use this year to expand her boundaries and gain some important real world experience

I'm sure VK went home, was told that Kelli and Judy were wrong, and still believes that deep down.    I hope she doesn't start a lifelong weight battle to try to make DCC, and ruin her health.    If she didn't think that being called into the office for the fifth time, and the fourth was over disrespecting Jinelle, and blowing off all of the help she was given was leading to this, then she's not accepting reality.

I don’t think Victoria is ever going to manage her weight. If she had made the team, I think she would never have gotten to her audition weight.

None of the girls want to tell their moms. Who wants to have to do that?

It’s only because Victoria’s mom is Kelli’s best friend that she gets that bit in.

I’m not hard hearted at all, but I don’t feel sorry for Victoria. She had so many chances, good advice and support handed to her. If she’s too immature to think she needs it, that’s on her. Eighteen isn’t so young that she shouldn’t know to take advice from more experienced people around her. 

She should have been gone a long time ago and it’s just a relief to finally say “hasta la vista” to her.

This. She really will have to learn to change her lifestyle. I wouldn't have been able to do that at 18. But I also wasn't trying to be a professional dancer.

Anyone else feel like this season is dragging! tonight I was annoyed we have to wait another week to see the final team. Longest drawn out season of all time! And this coming from a big fan. These cuts are being drawn out wayyyyyy tooooo long.

Eh, I'm going to be the hard hearted bitch tonight. VK's been called in multiple times. She botched the turns in auditions, refused help from a staff member, ate her way to a 15 pound weight gain, and seemed as mature as a toddler most of the time. One mascara streaked exit that looked heavily edited isn't making me sad she's gone. I'm annoyed she wasn't cut sooner, she sucked up a ton of camera time this season that would have been better spent on the rookies that actually made the team.

I couldn’t agree more. I feel it’s not even being cold, it’s just the reality that’s been facing Kelli since the week she was upset she didn’t make show group and the choreographer said Victoria wasn’t ready.

No, I agree. Saving it all for the end is brutal because we are missing a lot of the other cool things they could be showing us.

I thought Shelly said they moved others around to make the groups even - they should all have 9.

By game day, yes, but at the point in training camp when they did the sticker thing she still had the most girls.

Right so that's actually not a fair process. Each GL gets 9 stickers. Lacey was forced to cut two from her group. But that shouldn't mean that they are the weakest two of the whole team. Dumb system. They should have given them each 36 stickers.

Honestly during VKs cut, I couldn’t think of anything but her mascara lol. Like, sweetie, if you were going to wear that at all football games, we were gonna have a Blank space T Swift situation. 

Also when it was all gone, she DID finally look 18.

If VK comes back next year, maybe she’ll get the ghost edit of Erin, Brennan and Madeline this season. Normally the comeback girls are shoved down our throats...but nope! Not this year. Miracles could happen ?

It’s been pretty obvious that Kelli wanted a bigger squad. Kelli confirmed it when she made that comment to Judy when the girls were on the field.

Was that in a previous episode and I don't remember it (which is entirely possible) or tonight's episode which I am SO excited to watch but have to wait until iTunes pops it up.

She always does, I think. She has said in past seasons that she'd love to a squad as big as forty.

In many years, she's struggled to find enough girls who are pretty and can dance so, while she would LIKE a squad of 40, she wouldn't have been able to legitimately been able to find that many.  This year would have been an exception if Victoria had been cut MUCH earlier in the season and not dragged to the end in the hopes that enough other girls screwed up so she could get a spot without having to cut her or expand the squad JUST so she could have a spot.

She's still a kid - straight out of high school.  She'll mature enough to make it next year.  I can't believe all the hateful comments and cheering for her departure.  

There have been MANY girls on the squad who have been 18 when they made the squad (Lacey, Jenna, Brooke Sorenson, and Dara McFarlane to name a few) and have been mature for their age.  I think it's Victoria's general behavior overall as well as Kelli's overtly blatant favoritism towards her (which Victoria couldn't help to a degree, but certainly took advantage of) that turned people off.  I don't know about anyone else, but if I was shown such favoritism (either in a job search or actually AT my work), I'd at least make sure I'd get at least a second and third opinion from other people who I know are aware of the situation and WON"T sugar coat their answers to make sure that what I'm experiencing is what's actually going on.  If it is, I'd ask that it please stop because it's hurting me rather than helping me and not allowing me to grow, change and expand my role in the company.  It's not in my nature just as making sure I really AM tougher on those I have a personal or lifelong connection to in order to make sure that they've earned the spot instead of my input being the reason they GOT the spot.

Ok so I'm watching late but no way Tara should have been cut. She had JT and Shelly and NF and MRS stickers. Cut rookie Madeline who has bad faces. Christina even or Savannah, Malena, VK.
