The Biggest Loser

Who else needs to lose like 30 pounds but sits and has a milkshake and some chips while watching it?? LOL!!!!!!

I've never watched it before, but it is on right now. Seems to me that pushing someone who is 400 lbs that hard immediately could bring on a heart attack.

I do! I do! I'm sitting on here eating nachos and thinking about the 20 I need to lose. Oh well, maybe tomorrow....

 

[speckledhen]

Well, I was right. On the very first challenge, a one-mile run, they had to take one woman away in an ambulance. Sheesh.



ETA: The filthy language is also ridiculous!

 

[MandyH]

Yeah and In the helicopter too. Now I see why I'm chunky, no need to fall out dead trying not to die. I'm with Key West Chick, pass me the nachos please my milkshake is gone LOL!!!!!!

I watch it and I need to gain about 20 to 30 lbs. Go figure

Hi! I feel for anyone trying to lose weight, but I *click* right on by those shows. I don't get how that is entertainment (for me, a viewer).

Well I guess if you are overweight (like myself) the show is supposed to inspire you to get up and get moving. I have to applaud them because they have taken that first and biggest step to getting healthy.

I think to a certain point it's demeaning to the people to put them on display for all the world to see.
The men get T shirts why can't they give the women the same privilege to cover themselves.
I'm sure it's very embarrassing to stand in those black girdles and nothing but what looks like a sports bra.
Just doesn't seem right to put those sweet ladies through that i feel for them.

I was just watching it, but I turned it off. I got tired of hearing them cuss and scream at those poor people. Yeah, really, they could just keel over dead. That is too much too fast.
