The Lounge The Biggest Loser seems wrong to me May 25 2007

I am really grateful for the show, the Biggest Loser. It is extremely inspirational and it shows that anyone can lose weight. It is just a matter of accepting the fact that you need to eat less and exercise more. Our lives are so comfortable that we have no clue about what the body is capable of and that is why many perceive the amount of exercise to be unhealthy but clearly it isn't. We would probably be able to do even a bit more than they are on that show if our lives depended on it.
I also think that it is primarily stepping it up which is difficult, once you are doing the right thing, it is easier.
I like the fact that they are losing the weight fast. You can keep the weight off by changing your life style with all that common sense blablabla but first you have to get rid of it and busting one's ass is the fun and quick way. I recall reading some report about how those who lose weight fast initially are those who succeed in losing all the weight and keeping it off.
I have enough sources of inspiration that I feel confident that I will be in perfect shape but sometimes I wish that I could be on that ranch so that I could lose the weight faster and for sure.
I like what Jillian said, "Will power is greatly overrated". I think this country needs more of kick-ass inspiration and support to address the obesity problem. We should not feel guilty for failing. We should just accept that it is hard to do it on your own for many of us and that we need inspiration and support together with own determination.
