I wondery why

each season there is a black woman contestant she can never lose the weight or put up big numbers. It's usually common from the seasons I have seen I wonder why. Is it the workouts, their lack of determination or genetics.

It's definitely genetics. And has absolutely nothing with their "lack of determination."

That seems to happen a lot.

I've seen some contestants not giving it their all. Lack of trying a better word. I don't know what is causing it but you think a producer or someone would notice this trend and try to do something about it. But like another poster said it could be they are overeating somewhere.

Last season there were contestants losing at least 10 pounds every week. This season there are a lot that seem to have very small weight losses. I have no doubt that they are working out a lot. They have to be over eating at the house. I wish they would show what it is that these contestants are eating.

Every season there's a white man and white woman who don't lose weight either. I wonder if it's the workouts, their lack of determination or genetics?

Apparently everyone is taking it as a racist comment but as a black guy I'm curious why they don't last until the compared to others. I find that black women are usually the first to go after the first weigh in and they don't lose weight compared to others. The only time I remember a black person making the final 3 was the gay guy from miami during the 50 state season? I know it was the season with kai where she was the final 3 too. I guess my wording was misconstrued but just curious why black more so female don't lose as much weight as others each week. BTW has their been any other contestants like asian or indian on the show? It's usually black/white sometimes latino big people.
