The biggest loser

I was wondering if everyone watched and what they thought about it??

I have to laugh, I have never really watched it before. Though when I caught it I found it inspirational. Last night my DH was watching it- he usually passes by these kinds of shows. He was in awe. Out loud he said "can you image what it must be like to lose that much weight" I turned to him and was like "Dah.. nope" lol. It was amazing to see how much they lost. I was talking with someone this morning and she noted that these people are working out something like 5 hours a day. I don't know how you can live a normal life and do nothing but work out. I get in about 45 minutes if I am lucky. what were your thoughts? donna

I think that those folks, like us, got a tool to give them a jump-start...the motivation of money helps too! Fortunately, we can live with our tool...I don't know how successful those folks will be in the long run, because none of us can have a life and a job and do exercise and work out 5 hours a day. But Eric was really a hottie after losing all that weight...I'm happy for all of them. I usually exercise one hour a day and although I'm committed to it, some days it's hard to find that time..I find that I have to get less sleep in order to get it in. Pam 282/143/145

I have never seen the program, but was sickened about the comments of the winner... see below.... NEW YORK - Erik Chopin, who dropped 214 pounds to win NBC's "The Biggest Loser," was prepared to undergo surgery to slim down before he was chosen for the weight-loss competition. "That's how hopeless I felt," Chopin, a family man and deli owner from West Islip, N.Y., told The Associated Press in a phone interview Friday. "I felt like I needed to go for the surgery but, really, I'm so glad I didn't. ... I knew the whole time, I honestly knew, I was copping out, I was quitting." LOL!!! LOL!!! LOL!!!!!
