Continuing the Live Chat discussion that I started about the Biggest Loser but never got to finish since I needed to spend time with hubby--- I read your responses to it and that's actually a great point about it being sad that people have to go home.
What happened with the first episode of Biggest Loser? They sent NINE people home on the first night (split up 9 teams). The reason behind it being that they want people to know they CAN DO THIS at home, without that bootcamp atmosphere. Isn't that amazing? I can't wait to see their results. The people sent home get a personal trainer and a membership to their local 24Hour Fitness, I believe. Not sure if these nine people will be getting that, though.
Anyway, watched the show. These are the biggest contestants they've ever had. This show really moves me because 1). the transformations are incredible and 2). these people NEED to lose serious weight (we're talking close to 400lb people). Hubby didn't want to watch but ended up being really intrigued by the show. I think this is going to be THE season to watch if you don't watch it. I'm a personal fan of their techniques and attitudes (I LOVE Jillian's in-your-face-no-BS attitude!).
Okay, that's my spiel! What are your thoughts? It is the basis for my Weight Loss Challenge that hubby and I created, which Renae has asked me to share. Will share on another post, though, so it's easy to find.
