" I hope this don't make to many people mad! but that show the biggest loser! realy is a Degreading show, I turned it on and only sceen the part where the four people were having to eat the table full of pastrys to win the camara's buy how many plate they ate, and worse then that those people were hungery then have to be temped by that, I guess thet signed up for it to win money but how much is your self respect worth!

Humiliated; and screamed at by that lady trainer! that poor guy looked like he was going to have a heart attack, the she was asking him if he enjoyed being fat! But when a person is as large as that man was there are limitation's on a what a person can do healthy with out stressing your heart, im sure deep down the guy would of tryed for more time but his body would not allow him too!

maybe im wrong. what do you think?

I hate those reality shows...

One exception - Fear Factor. It's like... A dirty pleasure, I guess. But the people aren't verbally abused, and I keep wondering if I'd have the guts to do some of those things.

But I'm with you, JQ - I really think these types of shows are unhealthy.

I agree with you but cant stop watching just the same.

I had to laugh the other day on the subject of Big Brother. I saw one of the girls from the last Australian Series down at our local shops working in a land sales booth in the middle of the mall. Not as some special promotion, that was her actual job. Trying to sell land in Pakenham. Sheesh, how the mighty have fallen! Our suburb is not exactly in the heart of bustling cosmopolitan Melbourne, this is the outer south east, home of the 3 bedroom brick veneer, 2.5 kids and family truckster in the driveway.

I've never watched that show... sounds like I'm not missing a thing! Thanks for the heads up! I don't want to watch any program that promotes humiliating the obese... lord knows most of us have suffered through enough of that in our own lives!

I do have to admit... I had managed to completely stay away from Survivor and this year we happend to get hooked on the reruns on OLN... DANG...I was this [----] close to a clean get away! Other than that I have mangaged to avoid reality TV.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
