Really, because he looks bigger to me. And I take it he didn't exercise.
According to wikipedia:

In addition to these 16 chefs, Robert Hesse, 30, an executive chef from Quogue, New York, who competed in Season 5 of Hell's Kitchen will also compete in this season, after Chef Ramsay personally invited him back after the first dinner service. Robert was one of the final five contestants of that season before he withdrew due to pericarditis. Between seasons five and six, which were taped over a year apart, Hesse married, had lost 55 pounds, and underwent gastric bypass surgery.

laugh out loud I thought to myself last night "Nagin is gonna be thrilled" laugh out loud

I think Kevin has the best shot at it right now. I still can't believe that even with one hand Dave is still doing better than some of the contestants.

Amanda is so..... weird. She is most definately not all there. Crazy

There aren't three of them that you could put together into one person this year that would make a decent head chef. I hate all of them. But thank God Robert's finally gone.

Amen. Robert was annoying as hell this season.

This is definitely the weakest season so far. Maybe the Ramsey screaming routine every week is just getting old.

I do admit though, the challenge with the figs (and seeing the guys pull it off) was entertaining. The garlic dispute was kind of funny too.

The actual service and punishment/reward portion was pretty boring.

Kevin is my favorite now. He's from the Boston area IIRC. Last week he cooked with Shawn Thornton (A Bruins hockey player) for the homeless. I'd like to see him win. He seems to know what he's doing and it consistently good.

I think Kevin would do pretty well. I expect to see him in the top 2 or at least pretty close.

Robert was annoying this season. It was sad... He's a good cook, but he got too cocky and kinda came off as a douche this season.

agreed on all points. the kinda asian girl is the only one of the girls i kinda see making a challenge, maybe danny (denny?).

i really don't know what happened to robert. it seemed like he was close to winning last season before being forced out. if it wasn't for that type of performance he'd have been out his first week. he was really awful every week and just lived off what he did last year

Robert's role this year was to be a disruptive force on the Men's team.
I don't mind that the show is totally scripted.. but come on. They set the whole thing up so that Robert had to ride the wierd bike and go to the hospital, miss time, etc to build up the drama.. Of course, they made him a jerk leading up to that to build up the tension.

I'm just disappointed this season. Since it's all fake, it should be more entertaining than people serving raw food, cutting the lamb wrong, and not cooking scallops right every farking week. I guess all shows run out of material eventually.

Best moment so far (Tellille telling Ramsey he was crap) was ruined when Telliel backed down. If she would've said "Hey you threw me out, I didn't quit.. " I would've had more respect for her. Instead, she cries and begs to come back.

I agree. I was kind of excited that there was going to be a second season this year, but it seems the same after awhile.

I do still get kind of a kick out of it though. But Suzanne really just kind of grates my nerves for some reason.

Yeah, really. With as much as they've served risotto, there's no way they can get it wrong that much. Didn't they used to vary the menu a little more as the season progressed?

Yes, for the love of God.

If you're going on this show, please know how to fry eggs, cook scalops + fish , and Roseotto (whatever the hell it is, the green goo everyone screws up).

It's not that farking difficult.

At least this week, the menu was slightly different. I give them credit for that.

The drama about the "VIPs" was lame..
