Jesse, you're funny and great and I think most sane people realize that reality shows are always edited a way to get a coherent storyline. I guess after Mimi left, they just had to find a different villain, but I think they didn't really do a good job at making it you ;-). The rendition of the water throwing incident you did with Peeler was PRICELESS. :)

Hi Jesse!!
Of course we all agree with you about Rebecca!!! She is totally acting gay or on the fence or whatever she wants to call it by screwing around with Jackie!! Come on!!! I guess her butt crack wasn't getting her enough camera time so she had to hit on the boss which by the way I am a straight married Mother and yes Jackie is hot but you just don't decide to play like your gay because someone is hot!! Good grief I would be jumpin the fence all the time if that were the case!! HA! But then I don't have cameras following me around like Rebecca either.........

I LOVE JESSE FOR BRINGING THIS OUT INTO THE OPEN!!! Thank you so much. I know quite a few people who felt the same way about Rebecca the whole time we watched this season. We have no respect for her or her actions. She used Jackie and, in my opinion, the entire cast for her quest to be on camra more.Thanks for being honest Jesse...this is a qaulity that is lacking in most people today.

Jesse you are fighting too hard for everyone to forget how jealous you are about Rebecca and Jackie's adventures. It isnt over, but you are in my book. You are just what Rebecca called you.." Jackie's little bitch boy", Why dont you try to remember the important things in life that Doug taught you and forget all this bull***.

Jesse, although there were times that you may have come off in the wrong light due to editing, my gut reaction has ALWAYS been that Rebecca was CONSTANTLY seeking attention like a little puppy. She did want more screen time. I am sure that she cares for Jackie but her playing to the camera was quite heavy handed. It was so blatant and such a bugger that I had to fast forward through tivo whenever she was on. You ROCK, you RULE and you were RIGHT!!!!

You were not so nice with Doug at first either. He went out of his way to make it right. When you should have been the one to do that. It takes a bigger person to step up and he was that. Maybe you like being the Drama Queen.
By the way you look great!

Aloha Jessie,
I have to say I love your attitude. I know that at one point you had a disagreement with Doug regarding his comment that you pretty much reminded him of Jack from Wil & Grace. First off I am glad that you 2 put that aside & that you were able to mend the relationship before his passing. Second of all I agreed with Doug 100% because you do remind me alot of how Jack's character is; funny, spontanious, good looking, kinda quarky (in a VERY good way)& fun to watch. Just remember your personality being compared to Jack's is one of the best comments to have on your side. As for the weight, I am glad you got yourself on track, but to me I still thought you looked good so please don't think that everybody is always on your back about that issue because to me it's stupid to put a person down about their weight, and no I am not fat by the way. I originally weigh 105, but because of my medical condition I have right now I am now up to 112. Don't worry, after my surgery I will be able to hit the gym again & get my butt back into shape with my gym partner (my lovable husband). Well, take care & I wish you the best of luck with the things that are going on in your life.

Aloha ahui ho,

Hi Jesse. Watched you last night on the reunion show! I agree with your feelings towards Rebeccas motivations. Jackie is a smart girl, and is probably just having fun with her for the time being. I'm sure rebecca's intentions will come to light soon enough. Nothing is hidden under the sun. And you know what... "F" what people say about your weight. Seriously, you are one handsome guy!

Looking forward to season 3!

Hi, Jesse... I certainly don't think you're insane. You're just brutally honest. But you do owe it to yourself (and to Jackie [or any friend in a similar situation]) to just move on. On a related note: We could all learn from Doug's principles (which I thought were so inspirational). A couple other comments: 1.) Loved your candor about being the biggest gossiper on the show 2.) Ignore the hyper-critical nature of the gay male world regarding your weight and follow your friend Jackie's philosophy ("healthy body, healthy mind"). You're a cute and funny guy...I enjoyed watching the show again this year...let's hope there's a season three, so you can grow into Doug's shoes and continue to provide a much needed positive gay male role model. Cheers!

Before the 'gang' jumps into a 3rd Season (that is, IF it happens). Might one suggest group therapy with a little angry management on the side? I see your point with Rebecca, we all do. But if the shoe were on the other foot, you'd probably not like your co-workers telling you who to DO. Its a thin line. Let's just hope that Jackie comes to her senses and realizes who her REAL friends are, and who are not. Just because she has money, fame, etc.. etc... dont mean squat when it comes to the heart.
I'll miss seeing you every Tuesday night. Best Wishes in all you do!

Jesse, I'm not following your logic on the boyfriend issue. Who cares? After all, Jackie was dating around as well so why should it matter if Rebecca was too (unless it is your contention that Rebecca was lying to him about her relationship with Jackie as opposed to letting him know all about it as she stated on the Reunion show). That said, I've never been entirely comfortable with that relationship because of the working relationship they had prior to it. While Jackie can state all she wants that the gym is a much more relaxed environment, when a "boss" dates an "employee", it's the potential power issue you need worry about and has zero to do with how relaxed the environment is. That's a fact. Always has been which is why sexual harrassment laws were put on the books to begin with.

Finally, about the weight thing. People want their Trainers to be buff. We expect you to "do your job" so to speak. But, hey, who of us are absolutely perfect at our own, eh? Truth of the matter is, weight is something lots of us struggle with as is the pursuit of perfection in our own little worlds. Take care and congrats on the weight loss.

I liked you just fine, even when you were "fat". Your smile is so contagious. I love your sense of humor too. I agree with some of the other commentors...the re-enactment of the water toss was histerical. I watched the Reunion and I was laughing the whole time. I really hate that Doug lost his battle, and i can see how much his absence has really affected the trainers and clients. You know he's in a better place.

Jackie said that she charges 400/hour. What do you charge? And do you get to pick your clients or does Jackie hand them to you?

I look forward to watching next season and all the drama and sweat that unfolds! Rock on you hot stud muffin you! Fat or no fat, you're cute no matter how you look.

Poor, poor Jess-ica. Obviously, you are the girl, and Rebecca, the woman. Duh..who didn't think Rebecca and Jackie were both dating others, and the two parties involved, were honest about it. Shame on you for being so small-minded and judgemental. Jesse, you said at one time, that Rebecca obviously brought some measure of happiness to Jackie, and she deserved it! What happened to that? Rebecca was a class-act, especially compared to you. The camera loves Rebecca, and Rebecca, the camera..who wouldn't?! By the way, girl..you sure did need to lose some weight and tone up! You're looking better, keep it up. Maybe next season, the camera will love you then, because we know you love the camera! LOL You are always good for a laugh, if nothing else. Jackie even had to verbally bitch slap you on the reunion show. Again, Rebecca was a class-act through all the microscopic scrutiny, I admire the risk-taker in her. She was not the editor of the show, remember that and live and let live, Jessica.

Although be careful with so much honesty I lost my best friend over the same thing she chose to find out the hard way about her drug using woman using sorry excuse of a man boyfriend.

Not only did he not mean it in a bad way, you wound up acting the way that you thought Doug meant it and turned it into a HUGE drama for no reason. I think you should be ahppy and proud of wo you are no matter how much of a gay stereotype you are. Just be comfortable with it. You are cute. So just be happy with the way that you are.

I can say I've experienced many of the same feelings and resentments, always being the "obvious" guy in the crowd, group of friends, whatever. I know how you felt and I thank you for voicing your feelings so strongly and rightfully. Honestly, I don't think our community gets anywhere or anything without being cohesive, and you really articulated my feelings and passion on the subject very well. Thank you for being strong, proud of who you "obviously" are, for being such a positive and REAL role model, I just love you!

However as far as everyone else (other bloggers)they are proably big fat cows and thats all they have to do! You couldn't be a chef and not over indulge some (we are only human)! As far as the Jackie and Rebecca... You went a little over board yeah! I woulda threw water in your face too. I think it was hard to avoid for them! I know as a straight woman... I think Jackie is so HOTT! That is the only woman I have ever seen that would make me turn lesbian! There's just something just honestly beautiful about her! I think coming out of a relationship and Rebecca being as sexual as she is, it was a simple lust type thing that they both went after! I don't think it was meant to be malicious act!

I don't know if Jackie thought through all the possible repercussions if something goes wrong down the line. Does anyone else smell a Sexual Harrassment suit in the the future? Don't let any of this get you down. Looking forward to seeing you next season. Have a great summer!

Jesse,
First I have to say your are a freakin cutie! Heres the thing though, YOUR jealousy over the Rebecca and Jackie relationship brings out the ugly in you! If you are a true friend to Jackie as you have claimed to be.......then you would step aside,respect Jackie and your friendship with her, and let the two of them decide how and what they want from one another. Do you have to like the situation NO, do you have to agree wit the situation NO, do you have to be best friends to Rebecca NO, but atleast respect Jackie as her friend and be supportive to her NO matter what the situation may be. After Jackies nitemare of a relationship with Mimi, she deserves a little fun, flirtation with whomever she choses. I was proud of YOU during the reunion show when you DID FINALLY ADMIT, your were totally jealous of their frienship/relationship. IT appears to me that the reason you were Jealous is because you were the one whom was NOT getting as much air time since you were no longer the lite in Jackies eye. HMMMMM talk about calling the kettle black here, when reffering to whom wants more air time, me thinks Jessie was upset as his camera time was largely cut and Becks camera time went up. Please if you ever take anything away from Dougs passing, remember the MAN he was and how he lived his life,and what he stood for you could learn a few things from him.
I wish you all the best in your catering service, as well as in life in general. Hugs and kisses. ;)

The main reason I even mention her is this.. after the last show the reunion show she had said to me if we could afford it and if we could go to where skylab is I wouldnt want anybody but Jesse to train with me and help me. To me Jesse, that is saying more about you as a person and a professional then any edits in a show could! We love you!

Hi Jesse-

I'm totally on your side on the Rebecca thing-it was so contrived, not to mention unprofessional. Of all of the trainers, she's the only one who I honestly think that I would not like in person.

Secondly, anyone who's on your back about weight, screw 'em! I finally had to learn that after a childhood filled with unrealistic expections and a resulting eating disorder. You look fabulous, fit, and healthy, that's all that matters!

I hope Jasmine is still doing well. I'm looking forward to studying your routines for ideas in season three! I tell my trainer all the time to watch so he can see your creativity.

Love, Brooke

I totally understand the Rebecca thing. It's hard to watch someone you care about (Jackie) make a mistake that you know will hurt her. I only think your approach was a bit invasive. All you can ever do in a situation like that is express your concern to Jackie and show support. Otherwise you can get in trouble. If Jackie dosen't want to hear it, she won't, and it will hurt your friendship with her. Anyway, enough with Dr. Phil here, have a great year!

Jesse--you are adorable and I for one always liked you even at your not-so-good moments! You are honest and there is nothing phoney about you.
As for the weight--I think you looked fabulouso so phooey on everyone else!
My condolences to all of you on Doug's passing--I feel like I knew him and couldn't believe when he passed. I know he is looking down on all of you and is smiling that beautiful smile of his.
Thank you Brava for sharing Doug with the world :)

Jesse, first I just wanted to say, that I just recently got hooked on the show...and I love it! Second I just wanted tell you that you are a real inspiration to me. I have recently been trying to figure out what I am passionate about. After thinking about it for some time, I came across the show. I have always had some interesting in helping people in some why, helping them change their lives. The whole Skylab idea really excited me and it is something that I think I would like to do in some why shape or form. After watching a few episodes, I got online and looked through the trainers profiles. When I came across yours, I was really kind of excited. I have always loved cooking; however I’m no too sure about making a career of it. I just wanted to thank you for being an inspiration to people, and if you have any suggestions or anything, please let me know. Thanks again, Brian

Jesse-
When, on the reunion special, it came out that Rebecca had been on the Amazing Race, it changed my mind about her hitting on Jackie being a ploy. I always figured Jackie is hot, and that Rebecca was living out the straight girl fantasy right there in my living room week after week. But obviously she likes being on reality TV. Probably a combination of both. I hope there is a season 3 and I hope you get a lot of airtime because you are awesome! And not fat. Maybe we'll see you on Top Chef!

Jesse,
I have friends, male, female, gay and straight and I am so sorry to disagree with you. Jackie and Rebecca are both grown women. Let them make their own decisions about what they want and what is best for them. As Jackie's "good friend" if you think she is making a bad decsion, regardless what it is, all you can do is be supportive, be there for her when/if she falls. I never see/hear Jackie asking you for your opionion or help regarding her love life. Where was your over zealous protective friendship when she was geting in that emotional abusive in season 1 and 2? We never heard a peep out of you. Now all of a sudden your worried about JACKIE with REBECCA???? You have to be asking yourself at some point, why are you so obsessed with them having a good time with eachother. Use all that energy to workout more and make your own good time.
ps.That posting about Rebecca "had or has" a boyfriendI seriously hope YOU get a boyfriend soon. That would be interesting and great t.v.

Jessie,
I was on your side when Jackie let you know at the same time as all the other trainers know that she was in a relationship with Amanda (i forgot her name but you know who am talking about) but calling her a SLLUT again was totally wrong on your part (you called her that the first season and told Peeler you were just kidding [were you kidding]). Jessie keep it real and be true to your self. I want to see more of the Jessie that I saw in the Coffee shop with the Model/Military person (you know who I am talking about that was real [not playing a 16 year old and calling somebody a slut]) Some other things that I see you do on the show are totally fake and it just makes me think Peeler is a better man then you. Can you change that because you are now the MALE GAY representative for the show. Are up for it. I think Doug would say "YES". Good luck next season I look foward to watching.

But you sure do make the show funny in your own way, kinda makes me want to keep watching. Instead of watching a bunch of serious people go on with their day.

Jesse,
Please know that my friends and I also agree with you about Rebecca. All of us girls have dated "Newbees" and guess what? THEY ARE NOT GAY! You can date them for years, but in the end, they always go back to men because they have ulterior motives behind the so-called, transition. Furthermore, we fight hard to prove that being gay is NOT a choice. So doesn't Rebecca's reasoning behind her involvement with Jackie sound ignorant and negate the whole "we are born this way" campaign that we are trying to get in the minds of many?? ULTERIOR MOTIVES. I'm just disappointed that Jackie will learn the hard way. You're a good friend Jesse. My friends and I look forward to tasting your cooking one day. Keep everyone posted about where you will be.

Jesse,
I thought I was the only one who remembered that Rebecca had a boyfriend! How did people forget the photos of his penis that she was showing to everyone at the gym who would look? I would also be unnerved by my boss and a coworker dating, and I didn't think it was fair that the show was edited to make it seem like you were crazy for being upset. If more people were as direct as you are, I think we'd have a lot less problems in this world! I'd also like to express my sympathy to all of you on the loss of your friend, Doug. He seemed like a really great guy, and I was saddened by his passing. To end on a positive note, I think you're adorable and you're a great trainer!

You were 100% correct in your assesment of Rebecca (the fake poser). It was soo obvious that she trys soo hard to get attention and her whole convenient switch to lesbian to date the big boss was soo obviously riddled with alterior motive. All those who disagree with that are clueless I hate to say, but I'm soo glad that you spoke up and told it like it is. Go ahead brotha!

Your immaturity was tiresome by the end of the season. It amazes me that Gays are always complaining about being given labels and being put in a box and yet you want to get involved with outing Rebecca as being bi? Not gay enough for you? Even if she still has a boyfriend its none of your business! Rebecca is a sex kitten that really spiced up the show! At least your not boring which is why you'll be back. Many of your fellow trainers are ZZZZZzzzzzzz.

Let her live her life and make her own mistakes. You might have thought that you were "saving" her, but you were just embarrassing your "friend" and yourself. So yeah, I agree let the woman live her own "personal" life and you live yours and move on. I never tell my friends how they should conduct their personal lives and I never give unwanted advice.

Hey, Jesse. First, let me say you are hot and I think people should not say you are fat when you are not. That just goes against everything the gym stands for. You are not to tear people down you are to lift them up and encourage them. Anyway, enough on that. I don't know if you were correct about Rebecca or not, but I think you were a true friend to Jackie to voice your opinion. A true friend would not just sit back and not say anything. I do agree with you it is time to let it go and let them do whatever. By the way, the show encouraged me to start exercising and now i have lost nearly 30 lbs. Thank you so much. I hope there is a third season so i keep my encouragement up to continue losing weight. Thanks! Just want to say how much I miss seeing Doug on the show. I cried so much during those eppy's.

If Rebecca is using Jackie, then Jackie is equally using Rebecca. It appears that Jackie has a history of going after straight women. In season #1 Jackie told one of her clients (the lady who flew her out to her home for private sessions) that since she was straight she needed to be afraid around her (Jackie). She even bragged in her blog that she had been the first for many straight women. Jackie is a user. She was hurting from the breakup with Mimi and needed a rebound girl or should I say girls. She was with Tiffany during one of her breakups with Mimi and as soon as Mimi resurfaced she dumped Tiffany. You said in one of your blogs that you have known Tiffany for a while and she was a cool person. I think you should be worried for her and tell her to run as fast as she can away from Jackie. Jackie is also selfish; she contacted Tiffany and resumed their relationship, yet she actively went after Rebecca. From what I saw, she was the one who invited Rebecca to a gay bar and was even flirting with her there, knowing that she had started to date Tiffany again. I agree with you in some ways. Rebecca realized that Jackie liked her and decided to capitalize on it. But nonetheless, Jackie was the aggressor.

Jesse you are so amazing and wonderful and so cute. I have watched workout since episode one of the first season and I love every minute of the show. I love your personality, sense of humor and everything else about you. This is one gay man probably of millions who would love to meet you and spend a day with you.

Hi Jesse! I was totally addicted to the show and am going through withdrawal without it. I must say that you are very good looking and I LOVE your sense of humor. I loved the episode where you vented about the fact that gay people often tend to "categorize" others and that its time that we treat everyone as an equal and how important it is not to judge. I'm a 34 yo, in-shape (hot, not being conceited) Atlanta boy(I have the pics to prove it, LOL) who would love to meet you! Thanks for making me laugh and for being a positive role model for gay men. Bye for now hot boy! Sean

Jesse, You are right about Rebecca. You are Jackie's good friend, and that's why it bothered you that Rebecca isn't "real" about Jackie. Come on people......Give Jesse some credit for speaking the truth about a Camera hog, slut!!

Jesse,
I came on this site to check out any info on the show. Of course the first thing I clicked on was your blog...I just came in midway though season 2 and was instantly addicted--partly because of you! You are funny, sweet and so so so attractive. I hope there is a season 3 and that you will be on it! Good luck with all your future plans; I wish you well.

Hey Jesse, you are so right. I hate cheaters. I didn't think that you needed to lose the weight in the beginning. Since season one, you have been man candy.

Keep up the god work and can't wait to see you next season.

Jesse- I think you're reaction to Rebecca and Jackie dating was one of obvious jealousy, since you probably felt, again obviously, that now she was going to have "special favor" or "more weight" when it comes to various facets of the business, work place etc...which, having watched Jackie since the show began, I don't think would be the case. She seems extremely professional, which in turn makes her extremely fair and I don't think she would show favoritism where it wasn't warranted etc. Also, I think Rebecca (and I like her very much), but I think Rebecca is a total, TOTAL opportunist and her being gay is convenient at this time and juncture, she thinks it will serve her well getting "close" to Jackie and she's about as Gay as Jerry Falwell was. (So nice to use "was" when referring to him, but I digress)... You have to admire someone who will go to any extreme, length, to try and get what they want. I couldn't possibly, in no way, shape or form, carry on a heterosexual affair with a "boss/employer" no matter what was, or could be in it for me if I did. At least I don't think I could. It's not a simple cap to don in order to get something that you want. Think about it. So you have to give her kudos to be able to go to that length. You also have to examine what kind of person (what kind of complexity resides there) for her to be able to use sexuality (particularly one that is not in her nature I don't believe) to get what she thinks she wants. Anyway, it should in no way shape or form affect you, your relationship with Jackie, or your professional pursuits and your ability to move forward, gain, and get ahead. You need to work for that. Forget about Rebecca, or otherwise it can consume you and bring you down and once again she has the upper hand. Don't give her the power. Rise above it...dude! Good luck....!!!
