    I saw it. It was inspirational!! The whole time that he was running on the treadmill at the beginning when he was almost 400 pounds, made me realize there is no reason I cannot do this! It's nice seeing people lose that amount of weight from diet and exercise proving that it is possible!

    His story basically takes away everyone's excuses for not losing weight.

    I was thinking the same thing. Funny how TBL this past season was about No Excuses, but they never touched on homelessness. After what this guy went through in 1 year, there aren't any excuses that I can think of.

    This man is and should be an inspiration to everyone. Yes it is a tv show and it'sis made to bring a tear now and again, but I don't think they realized the impact this guy would have. Life threw everything at him and the fact that he picked himself up, dusted himself off,and got back to work makes him a giant among men. What a great guy and great thing this tv show is doing for people I hope they continue with this path and don't sell out for more money.

    Was very inspirational. I'm trying to push myself a little more by increasing my walking. If he can do it I can do it.

    This is the first episode I've ever watched, and I I thought it was wonderful. So much better than TBL. Tony is, indeed, an inspiration, and hopefully, his success will help people who feel defeated see that if they reach deep enough inside themselves, they can accomplish their goals, too!

    bump...as a reminder to check it out tonight! Sounds amazing and exactly the motivation I need.

    I use to watch TBL for workout inspiration and the extra push that I didn't always do on my own, but this last season actually demotivated me - oh I still worked out, but I didn't go in to each of those workouts saaying, "I am going to push harder this time."

    Sounds like this episode of EM-WLE may just spark that attitude again.
