depressed and inspired watching the Biggest Loser Finale



Recommended Posts

One had RNY, and I suspect the Old guy at the finale has a little secret of his own.

Yes, I smell an old rat!!!

There is no rule that the people who get booted can't have WLS when they get home, and he was in such bad shape, I'm not buying that he did it with just working out.

I am religious about watching Biggest Loser - I look at those people and think....if they can do it, so can I! The lady who won was 48 - I know they lost it a LOT faster than we will, but did you see the flab on their arms and stuff from losing it so fast? Hopefully we won't have that because our bodies will have time to adjust to our weight loss. They looked GREAT and I will too in another year or so!!!!!! Keep your chin up!!!!

It astonishes me that with the huge amounts of weight they all seem to lose - through the insane workout/low calorie regime - that more of them don't need hospitalising! Let's not forget that these are not "normal healthy fit" people stepping up their physical activity. They are very overweight, unfit, often with co-morbidities and go from zero to flat out in one jump.

I've thought that too.

The stress fracture that Laura (?) got, and then when Mike couldn't run the marathon because of his hip. I was honestly worried he had also gotten a stress fracture.

That's a LOT of weight to be putting on those bones and joints, and it's multiplied tremendously when there is force added to that weight.

Same thought I had, but I remember being told (I went to an audition) there is a pretty extensive legal agreement they sign that is pretty controlling, I would almost bet no WLS is in that agreement. Even the people that are kicked off get trainers back in their home town.

wow- this became a popular post!

I really wish this "reality show" would show the real people at home. I want to see what THEY are doing- because this show is pretty much telling us that you have to be quarantined and work out the entire day to achieve results.

I'd just like to know how I can excercise at all right now when I'm on liquids and have no energy! I am barely taking in any calories on Clear Liquids.

They won't post it until later. You can also catch it if you have directtv on Sunday nights on fln, I think.

I believe you can get results and not have to work out all day however you wont see reults like they have without working out all day, very unrealistic but if they didnt do that and only lost a little weight no one wuld watch

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
