....for viewers to see larger folks losing will give them so much more hope then I'm sure they have now!!
I'm a realist. The show is great and I don't want to kill anyone's enthusiasm for the show ... but if I was able to go a month or so without my job and be able to focus only on weight loss I'm 99.99% sure I could lose weight
The killer (not making excuses) is time. People have to work for living and in this economy they have to work either two jobs or extra hours. I don't even have a family but I struggle to work my job. Work extra hours running clubs and intramurals. So I'm putting in 10 or so hour days. I'm trying to fit in a boyfriend. Taking grad classes (cause for whatever stupid reason teachers basically have to have their masters done within 6 years of teaching - I agree with more education but why so soon after getting educated do I need more education) Plus, I'm desperately trying to find a job in a different area and have to go through the hoops that teachers have to go through to find employment. At the end of my work day - I am exhausted. Not physically but mentally and that does affect the physical. I have no desire to workout.
In the end, I workout I feel good. But afterwards I might have an hour or so left in my day then I go to bed and have to start all over with the same stress and time constraints.
So back on my point - biggest loser good show and inspiring to see how great people look after losing the weight - but in the real world its hard and my hat goes off to anyone of you that is surviving and making it work! :happy:
Very true!
I'm pregnant with baby #3 and right before I got pregnant I had managed to lose 22 lbs of the 50 I had wanted to lose! lol
The ONLY way I could with two kids running around was to TRY and get my 40 mins of exercise a day. It's really hard when you have a life to live, kids to chase, etc!
It's nice and inspiring though- I can't WAIT to have this baby and get back on track with exercise, and hopefully breastfeeding will help! lol0 -

I cant WAIT to see Danial (orange team) at the end of the season. I think this team motivates all of us. From the biggest to the smallest biggest.
I've enjoyed my first day here, and I'm looking forward to many many more.
I LOVE THIS SITE !!!!!!!!!!!!0 -
I'm rooting for Daniel too. I really didn't like Laura, glad she went home. She was too whiny for me.0

Jacmiley,
Amen Sista! When ya work for a living and have school and have other projects, all that stress takes its toll, and can inhibit weightloss (stress hormones or something, I believe).
So, Hats Off To You! You've lost 5 LBS so far, on top of all that you do :happy: Great Job!
