Did anybody happen to watch it? That guy's story was so amazing. Inspired me enough to get me up at 5 in the morning today for a run.

    Ditto. I am hoping to catch it today while folding laundry. I was so excited to see it show up in my taped shows. Sounds like it was a great story.

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

    I watched it. What determination. No matter what tragedy he was facing he just didn't give up. Compared to what he had to deal with, no one should whine about how hard this journey is. He is really an inspiration and just the reminder that I needed.

    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!

    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.
