Got a better one than this. Anyone watch Dance your A$$ off?

Give me a friggin break! :lol:

Just another kick in the A$$ for overweight people. They try to act like they are doing a "compassionate" thing briging obesity up front, but this is not the case.

These shows are rediculous

I watched it once, and that was one time too many! I just couldn't stomach it. Why would you put yourself through that humilation? And the outfits they were wearing? Oh my...

Oh Goody! A chance to vent about this show!

It made me so mad! At first I thought it would be a good show to watch, focusing on the average girl, more realistic. When the girls started to cry and whine about being fat and nobody has ever loved them I was dumbfounded! It ticked me off that the angle of the show is feeding the stereo type of the fat chic who can't get a guy unless the guy is also fat and a kind soul who won't judge. OH PLEASE!!! And WTF about the height and weight?? If it's not about weight, then why obsess about it? Then entire show is centred around being fat and hating yourself. It's not about self acceptance and being beautiful at any weight!

And another thing!.. what is so good about this guy that these girls are throwing themselves at him, quitting jobs to go and compete for a perfect stranger! If you ask me.. he's pretty average and acts like a martyr, being the nice guy who accepts fat chicks. PPPPLEASE.

Ahh feel much better now!

I only watched the first episode and then canceled the series. I have no interest in watching it after seeing the first one.

Ok I watched for the first time last week and the 2nd time this week. This guy is BOOORING!! Moonbeam you hit it! He does act like the nice guy who accepts fat chicks! But what about the girl-kristen, I think is her name-the one with the really curly curly hair. She is "in love" with him already and crying and so jealous of the other girls!? But, I noticed that the girls that are leaving the show are the ones that are the more confident of the group. The ones that whine more seem to be the ones staying! WTF is that about? Does this guy want a needy girl? Maybe he is that "superman" type of guy that needs to save someone??

Of course my DH doesn't watch reality TV but seems oh so interested in this one LOL!

maybe someone should tell them the real reason they're all single has nothing to do with being fat! the reason they're single is cuz they're whiny, attention seeking idiots with no class or self esteem. god what man wants a woman who cries on national tv? lol just the premise that heavy women can't find a man is insulting. i never lacked tor male attention even at my heaviest. these women aren't single cuz they're fat its cuz they're weirdos

I have seen it and even have it recorded but have not seen the second episode. While I agree with all you ladies that they are blaming not being able to get a man becasue of their weight in most cases are true. Alot of Ooese women are still in the "mode" of not being wanted by SOCIETY, let alone a MAN it was "our" life or at least a couple times it has happened to me. I have lost 75lbs and I can honeslty say that I don't see a difference at all and have actually slipped back into my bad habits!! I am married so it's not becasue of a MAN not wanting me. I don't know I agree they are whinning alot but maybe that is the emotion part of this show to get popularity..I don't know. But i do think several of these women do have low self esteem I know I did/do at times even now.

I watch it....that's my dirty little secret. What keeps me entranced is watching how UNcomfortable some of the women look when Luke is all in "pimp daddy" mode trying to make out with them.

I think he's a dude that needs to constantly feed his ego, and he thinks he can be a "stud" to this group of overweight women, even though he looks like a giant douchebag (how many times is he going to pull the cliched "You look cold...here, wear my jacket" stuff? I've seen him do that at least 3 times so far).

So yeah, I'll continue to watch. It's trash TV, for sure....but it keeps me entertained.

I've been watching it but hate it. I can't stand Luke. He is NOT a nice guy. He's acting the martyr. "Yes ladies, no one loves you but me and I'm the only one that will ever try to see you for you and I don't care that you're fat, see how good I am?" What a jerk.

They stopped the height/weight thing last week. They didn't show that at all so that's one step in the right direction.

I HATE the promise rings. Give them a ring, then right before the ceremony you take it back. Tacky, tacky, tacky!!!

I've been watching Dance Your A*& off. I kind of like that one. It gets better every week. It is good to see how they are improving. I'm not thrilled with some of the outfits, but really, they are just dressing like the dancers on other shows. Still it does look weird to see all that. But it is nice to see them improve and drop the weight.

The other "fat" show that's on right now is Drop Dead Diva. I like this one (not reality). The only negative I can say about it is the food stuff they throw in, but other than that it's pretty good.

I've never been a Biggest Loser fan though I'm going to try to get through it this next season. I just always felt that it was presenting such unreachable goals. That all those "normal" people started looking at us tubbies thinking, well, if Joe can drop 10 pounds in a week why can't you?"

I watched it last night and found it very entertaining. Some of the women are really pretty but I don't think he's any great catch. I don't get to watch much reality TV or TV period for that matter so don't know if I'll get to follow the show.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
