    I'm watching it right now too. The trainer is hot! I would be at the gym all the time if there was a free trip in it for me too! Felt really bad when she only lost 3 lbs in 3 months:(

    She did great! But, again, the trainer lived with her for 3 months, and he gave her a custom home gym. Not that realistic, in my opinion. Better than many of the other shows, but hard to relate to real life for most folks. Not many people can work out 4 hours a day like she did.

    And I know the Biggest Loser is wildly popular, but that gimmick with the weight flashing all kinds of different numbers while it "settles" is really annoying to me. Just show the damn weight already.

    Kind of reminded me of Jillian's show from last summer. BTW: I have a friend that is doing the tractor tire workout from Jillian's show. She says its tough.

    I caught a couple of minutes of it last night but my husband was trying to get me to focus on getting to be cause it was so late. I wish those shows were on earlier in the evening. I wonder how you get picked for a show like that???

    I was little under-impressed. "Here's your goal. Here's the reward. Oh, you didn't meet your goal? Here's the reward anyway!"

    And following the whole year in an hour, they had to leave out a lot of the details that interest me. Was she in contact with the trainer when he was not with her? Those 3 months she only lost 3 pounds, what were her days like?

    I don't know....I'm going to give it another chance, but I didn't come away from it inspired like I had hoped to be.

    I wonder if it's in the uk yet I'd like to see it!

    I guess you would have to apply through the website if you wanted to be on the show, that seems to be how most of these shows work!
