    Sounds like a great show, I'll have to add it to the list! ;)

    Is this the first season of the show? If not, I hope Netflix will add it just like Biggest Loser.

    Not only did he lose 200lbs but he did it while being engaged and subsequently breaking up with a jealous woman, the death of his kid and being homeless..that guy is awesome..and he did it all for his 50th birthday..just awesome.

    I haven't watched it yet but I have it recorded to watch tonight. I've never watched this series before but I would have to think it is much more realistic than the Biggest Loser since they follow someone for a year. I think we all need to look everywhere for inspiration, you never know what will flip your switch and get you moving.

    Wishing everyone a fantastic, fit week!

    It was great! I have been excersizing for awhile now but not down the way he is, he must've been very diciplined on his food. Ah well I keep trying, seeing things like this helps! Keep up the hard work everyone!

    It was an amazing episode. With all that Tony went through in that year (leaving his fiancee because she did not support his decisions, being homeless, losing his son) and he still kept a smile on his face and managed to not only meet but beat his intended goal!!! So inspiring!!! I will definitely be watching this season.

    I watched it too. I thought the story was awesome and I too thought the man was incredible. A couple of things I wish they had focues more on was how did he lose that much weight that quickly and it be medically safe and I would have liked to know more about his nutrition too. Overall, I will watch that show again.

    I watched it and imo its worth watching again...it was very inspiring! Can't imagine going through all that and remaining focused on weight loss. I really admired the way he put himself first in that first relationship and had the courage to move on...Good For Him!!!

    I liked it too!! The best part was it was not a loss in 3 months like on other shows. His journey took a year, way more realistic.
