The Biggest Loser Contest

At the end of my street, there is a golf course and a fitness center.  Last year they sponsored a competition called "The Biggest Loser".  They posted this on their signs which are at either end of our street.  Whether you turn right or left out of our driveway, you can't miss the signs. Their gym members join the group and they post how much the group has lost to date.  Last year the both signs showed Biggest Losers lost 45 pounds, 100 pounds, 160 pounds and so forth.  Every couple of weeks, they would update these signs that we pass EVERYDAY, SEVERAL TIMES A DAY, and eventually it got up and over 600 POUNDS!    Pretty impressive for a bunch of local people.  THAT is the back story.   So, TODAY, we passed the sign and sure enough it says......"Biggest Loser Is Back".  What does MY GUY say?    
HIM:  Oh, the biggest loser is back....I guess he went on vacation and gained all his weight back and is coming back to lose it again!
ME:  (I look at him because I can't believe he just said that and he CAN'T be serious!)
ME:  Are you serious?
HIM:  Stoic faced, he said....yes, why?
ME:  You think "The Biggest Loser is ONE GUY?"
HIM:  Yes, what else could it be?
ME:  Last year he lost over 600 pounds, and he gained it ALL back on VACATION and he is BACK to lose the weight again?  Are you serious?
HIM:  Well what do YOU think it means?
ME:  I explain it and he very calmly says...
HIM:  Oh
