I have become addicted to The Biggest Loser on NBC. Why you ask? Probably because my fat ass needs to lose like 50 lbs. and it's nice to see people actually able to do so in like 3 weeks time. I guess if I worked out 4 hours a day and only ate Jennie-O turkey and Nabisco 100 Calorie Packs (shameless plug, much like on the show) I would lose a ton of weight too. My question to the contestants is if you've seen this show at all, you know by past winners that the winner almost always loses like 50% of his body weight (yep, always a guy winning the big prize). Well, if you go in weighing like 190, you're likely to not lose 50% of your body weight because then you'd look like a concentration camp refugee. It just ain't going to happen. Maybe I'm wrong on this.
This season it's a couples thing. Could be interesting since you not only have to lose weight to stay in the game, but your partner has to lose weight too. Should make for interesting bonding sessions during the show. I foresee a beatdown when someone catches their partner scarfing down a cupcake.
I am on my own personal crusade to lose said 50 lbs. I have started the Weight Watchers Points program which is livable since you can still eat normal stuff and even splurge on things occasionally. I have so far lost like 9 lbs. which is always cool. Eventually I won't feel like a total slug in a tank top.
Don't eat that, it's like 25 points! at life.sa.laugh@hotmail.com.
P.S. As I predicted in a previous post regarding the risk of wardrobe malfunction on the new American Gladiators, it happened. On Monday night during the pyramid event, one of the ladies got yanked down by the scrap of spandex that was covering her girls. And the ladies flew out. Thankfully, she had on the necessary undergarments though don't know how they market that to people who wear spandex for 8 hours of the day. Needless to say, they didn't show that gladiator again during that event. Wonder what happens if one of the guys' shorts/skirts get pulled down. Could make for interesting television. Janet ain't got nothing on these peeps.

I feel so terrible, I haven't visited your blog in quite some time. Lots of worthwhile reading I have missed out on. That's awesome you have lost 9 lbs. I want to lose like 30 lbs. I would SOOOOO love to go on that show, who has the ability to go away from their families, and jobs for that long though? I know I sure couldn't! DAMN you are right though, if I lost half my body weight I would be dead heheheh....I do need to start doing something, before I turn into a freakin COW!!! Speaking of 100 calorie packs. I finished my entire Hostess pack off in 2 days, is that wrong? Kind of defeats the purpose of only consuming 100 calories when you are eating 3 packs hehehhehe! I wish I had fast metabolism is all I have to say :(
It's all good. I am currently a fan of the Kashi TLC Trail Mix bar. I think I'm deluding myself into thinking that they're better for me and thus I can eat more. Wrong attitude? :)
