The Biggest Loser - YEAH!

The Biggest Loser is back on with a new twist of parents/children and spouses. It looks like it is going to be a great series this time.

I know that some people love the show (me!) and others feel exactly the opposite. The thing that I love is the understanding and appreciation of the limitation our weight has on our lives, the challenges, overcoming those challenges and changing their lives. Is it an unrealistic setting for most of us? Sure. However, so is being stranded on an island somewhere that no one has heard of for 40 days with strangers and surviving the elements and the other people!

It is the process of seeing people change their lives and reach their dreams. I loved watching the Olympics, Lance Armstrong, and real everyday people change their lives. That is exactly what we do as wls patients. We just aren't featured on a television show. One of the things I love the most about my job with OH and being a wls coach is getting to partner with members along their wls journey no matter where they are on it. It is such an honor and privilege for me.

I love the trainer Bob. His caring and passion for the people on his team and those of us that struggle with weight and food issues are obvious. He reminds me of Jeremy, our exercise and fitness expert, guru at OH.

I watch and show and tape it. When I need a shot of motivation, I watch it. It reaffirms the power of living a healthy lifestyle and changing our lives by losing weight.

Weight loss surgery is not for everyone. I know that and definitely respect it. It is a personal decision. There are many paths to lose weight and change your life. Weight loss surgery is one of those options along with others. Again, I named my own website Lose Weight Find Life because I strongly believe that is what happens to all of us whether we are wls patients, participants on the Biggest Loser or whatever choice is best for us.
