Biggest Loser

I hate this show! How can you be disappointed when someone ONLY lost 6 pounds in 1 week. Seriously messed up. Just needed to say that! I don't know why I am watching it!

      The Biggest Loser show is certainly full of misguided and erroneous weight loss techniques. It is scripted and staged as carefully as any CSI so if you think it's about people on a weight loss journey

      I think they should be forced to announce at the beginning of each show the percentage of past contestants that have maintained their weight loss. I think the number is very low. I remember an episode

    Do they continue to work with the contestants after they are off the show to help them try to successfully keep off that excess weight they lost and/or help them with a realistic diet and exercise plan that they can follow "back in the real world" or do they just forget about them once their usefulness is over?

    Great post about " where are the former contestants"? There are A lot

    Of them and they occasionally parade one through, but many obviously are not long term successful.

    I guess that doesn't sell ads....or their camps etc. I watch it fast forward on my dvr... Like a train wreck, I should look away, ....but those shows help me remember how I felt often pre surgery.

    The humiliating sports bra weigh ins are a bit much....i have also read that a week is simply not what they show it to be...10days....etc. for the results they want.

    All that being said, the twin young men appear to be front runners with their youth and sense of competition.
