BellaOnline Forums Food and Wine Low Carb biggest loser on TV

Is anyone else keeping up with the Biggest Loser show on TV? Right now the Loser Couples show is being aired, a two hour program each week. I watch it while walking on the treadmill. It's very motivating to workout while "losers" do.

Who are you all rooting for?

I am inspired by the transformations the losers achieve, too. I also appreciate that the show makes it clear that there were no magic pills; those people worked HARD and learned to eat right, and it took time and total commitment to get where they are now. But the before and after differences are so amazing!
I can't wait for the last episode where they bring back all of the eliminated contestants and we can see how well they did on their own.
(I don't have a treadmill, but keep a set of 8 lb. weights by the couch, so I can get up and exercise during the ads.)

I'm afraid I haven't ever watched this show! I really should watch it at least once I imagine But anything that encourages people to exercise and eat right is good in my book!

I know what you mean about exercising while watching something like that, Jilly. I love riding my bike while watching Iron Men competitions, I think if they can pull busses, I can certainly pedal a few more minutes!!

And when I'm downstairs on the bowflex doing my ten-reps-of-100 I always think of myself on a stage with the opponent guy just having done 9 reps and I have to get to 10 reps to win

I am excited to see the contestants from home too and see how well they have done. Sometimes they even do better than the people at the ranch, which is cool.

Of the people still at the Ranch I think Roger has the best chance of winning. He also has a lot of integrity, which i like to see.

Yeah lisa, the Loser theme song is awesome to work out too, it really grips me as the show begins, and i feel myself tearing up...."What have you done today to make you feel proud...."

it gets me in the total mood to give it my all. if they can do it. i can do it. this show literally saves people's lives.

I don't even know when it's on TV, let's see ...

OK apparently it's on Mondays here. I'll try to remember! Mondays at 10am. Then Tuesday at 8pm

I watch it on Tuesday pm. It's two hours.

Well I missed the Monday am show even though I *did* wake up at 10am and kept thinking "there is a reason I wanted to be awake at this hour" and I never could remember it until I saw this thread

But I'll try to remember tomorrow night to watch it!! I think Mon AM was a "loser" show and the Tue PM was a "couples" show or something like that.

Reminder - Biggest Loser is on tonite. It's the first ep since they split up the couples. My guess is Brittney will be below the yellow line, and then either Kelly or Jay.

OH!! I missed it, a friend of mine invited me out to dinner. She's a tupperware rep and she has these great "berry saver" containers that keep my raspberries from going bad. Raspberries are so good for you that I am really thrilled to find something that will help keep them fresh. I should have set the darn recorder!!

I'm even looking on YouTube and am not seeing them ...
