Do you watch The Biggest Loser on tv?

[Catherinedana]

My best friend Madeline watches and has told me about it. We are both, well, plump and she suggested that we go on as a team. UUUuuummm, no.

I think that show is great to encourage anyone to work out, lose weight, whatever their goal is!

I love this show and have watched every season, even some of the UK and Australia seasons. I just watched the season finale and you'd think after so many seasons of watching this I'd get off my arse and be inspired. NOPE! I sit and watch it while I eat crappy food. Luckily I'm not big enough to go on the show.......yet. But I need to be healthier. I just don't have a support system that I need.

I just voted and I discovered that this thread is from 2004 - yup, I've been watching every show since the beginning. Addicted??? **raises hand** I find it very inspiring but like you Taz, I'm not doing much these days.

250,000 dollars? THey can go on Survivor, not have to exercise, lose weight and win one million dollars....

LOL You are so right but to have to put up with Russell???? EEEEEEEWWWWWW!!!!!

As you know Richard, it's not about the money. I'd pay someone $250,000 to get me in that good shape. I did watch the finale and am happy with the winner. I'm sorry, but I didn't want Amanda to win. I have my reasons.

Slick you are soooo right on every point! Amanda shoulda vamoosed a long time ago and can't believe they chose her over Shay (week 6 maybe?). She didn't have good numbers (ever!) and I thought her crush on Bob so immature.

ETA: BL inspired me to lose weight over the last 2 years -- I had lost 40 pounds, and went from a size 16 to a size 12. Now, I'm pregnant, and hanging in there until next summer, and hoping for the best.

And as for Russell? He shoulda been gone the first week........!!!! I can't STAND him - he's such a manipulator!

I'd kick Russell's arse just for the way he looks.

I caught about 10 minutes of the BL finale and was really agitated at the gal with the short blonde hair.

She was really obnoxious.

I just looked it up and the gal's name is Rebecca.

There was a point where she was asked by the host if she could beat the loss posted byan other person. She started to make faces and the way she acted reminded me of the women outside the liquor store asking for spare change.....


Strange. She seems to have a huge opinion about herself.

I totally agree with you Richard. She bugged the crap outta me! Her attitude was not attractive. And her hair looks horrible. I liked her on the show, but not in the finale. Lose the attitude Rebecca!!
Also, Tracey looks horrible too. She is way too thin. The skin on her face hangs and it's not pretty.
I was also happy with the winner. I really like him. After the make overs he reminded me of John Goodman in the Flintstones.
