I thought it was great except for the product placement in EVERY episode. I love that they show the emotional side of weight loss, all of the people on this season that made it to the finale had some kind of breakthrough. .-= Bekka´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.sandiegoanaerobicendurance.com/sunday-december-13th-meet-cf-socal-730am" rel="nofollow">Sunday - December 13th - meet at CF SoCal 7:30am</a> =-.

However, I don't think the writer was very fair judging the entire show after only watching one episode. He says they don't teach any real world weight loss strategies and yet a part of every episode is devoted to tips on making meals at home and they also had one episode that talked about how to order healthy options in restaurants. I disagree with his conclusion that there are more cons than pros. Until the Biggest Loser, obesity was something that was rarely discussed on television. People who are overweight or obese should not have to hide from public view or be ashamed of themselves. This show proves that it doesn't matter what your weight, gender, fitness level, age or race is, anyone can be healthy if they work hard enough and change their lifestyle. I'm only a little overweight but watching The Biggest Loser motivates me to work out and become a better runner. I've seen these people who have let their weight get out of control and I never want to be in that situation. I think they could make some changes so that people aren't starving themselves for the finale but overall I think the show does a lot more good than harm. .-= RC´s last blog ..<a href="http://bitsmack.com/wp/2009/12/14/comic-rcs-eleven-part-7/" rel="nofollow">Comic – RC’s Eleven Part 7</a> =-.

It took me awhile to get over the fact that these people were doing things that a normal person probably couldnt do. ie, workout for 8 hours a day with a trainer and a chef. But the results speak for themselves. These people have truly changed their own lives. .-= Tyson´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Startbeingfit/~3/VyJ1lyX1NQM/" rel="nofollow">What’s wrong with us?</a> =-.
