Thanks Karen! I will be looking for Trista on Thursday’s Ellen Show )

Veronica—I too, looked for her on the Ellen show today and noticed she wasn’t on. I went to Ellen’s website for the show, and it says that Trista is supposed to be on this Thursday’s show (January 31st).

I love Trista and have followed her since the very first Bachelor. She was supposed to be on the Ellen show today but did not appear, does anybody know what happened and if she will appear at a later date. I was anxious to hear how she is enjoying being a new mommy!

“but I do wish she would focus her attention on the positive aspects of her life and have more confidence in herself.”

It’s very interesting to me that there are so many people in the comments section for this thread stating that Trista should focus on the positive in her life and the she should focus more on her child. It’s just a shame that the people who are saying that aren’t taking their own advice.

It’s great when people want to exercise and maintain a healthy lifestyle, but it really shouldn’t be the focus of so much media attention.

To me, it seems like she must’ve had some self esteem issues to begin with and that only escalated once she became pregnant and gained the weight. I’m by no means saying she doesn’t love her son or isn’t a good mother, but I do wish she would focus her attention on the positive aspects of her life and have more confidence in herself.

That said, with the way she talks about weight, I’m surprised she would want to get pregnant again so soon. I understand factors such as age and her previous hardships with trying to get pregnant, but she doesn’t seem like she wants to mess with her current figure so that just had me thinking.

The questions where about HER not HER BABY! it was about her weightloss to the people who commented that she focused on her weight and not her child!….

I think Brannon said nothing that was rude. She was just stating her opinion like everyone else has on this post. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and should not be attacked for it.

Brannon you’re still not getting it but at least some others do.I still think you were being rude and nothing will change my mind about that. My point was that you can have an opinion but be careful how you express it. If you wouldn’t say it to the person’s face, don’t post it on the Internet.

I think its great when anyone loses weight but as much publicity as she has been getting just for losing 15lbs in 5 months doesn’t really do anything for me. I am currently 36wks pregnant and well lets just say I went from someone who was very physically fit and active and only had 17% body fat to gaining over 80+lbs! Im not going to sit here and critisize her for working out after the baby is born, you better believe ill be back in the gym shedding the 80+ POUNDS I put on.

Gaining 30lbs is in the normal recommended weight range anyways. The kind of article I would like to read about is in fact the woman who gained more than the normal 30lbs and than shed it all. Im not to worried about being able to lose the weight after he is born. I lost 60lbs in 4months when I was a teenager by eating healthy and exercising. Im not that old [23] so I know I can do it again but it sure would be nice to read about the women who gain a lot and work it all off.

Now if Tristan gained lets say 50lbs and than lost it all… Than I’d be interested in reading the article.

I enjoyed this interview for one reason and that is because she was asked questions about her energy levels and leading a healthy lifestyle. It seems there are some Trista bashers out there who just focus on her weight, when Trista isn’t even focusing on her weight in this interview. In fact, she doesn’t mention one word about losing more weight. She talks about feeling healthy and sexy and energetic about herself, Ryan and Max. And hopefully a new baby.
Go Trista.
Mothers should feel sexy, energetic and most especially – healthy.
