The biggest loser?
My niece and I are watching ‘The Biggest Loser’ together (yep, she’s in NC and I’m in NYC) and I have to tell ya, I really dig this show. Even though it has a lot of bawling about low self esteem due to being overweight (something I CANNOT relate to–I’m fat, but I’m not insecure about it) two of the coaches are sooo groovy that they make me like watching the show. Bob is the peaceful warrior who guides them with insight and sensitivity. He’s so lovable without being cloying. Jillian is the rocker kinda chick who is hard core but she used to be fat, so she has an understanding soul.
The blonde…I forget her name…she’s a right poopie head, that one. Last season she actually said this to one of the contestants: “That’s why you’re FAT” Okay, we no likee.
I’ve got my heart set on watching this show this season. I have friends who really struggled with their weight, one of them actually had surgery. You know, that stomach stapling business. She gained it all back over time. The thing is that she’s started exercising, but she needs something to help her out to supplement her work.
There’s a good chance that she’s a candidate for the Lap Band System by JourneyLite. They guide you through the process–from evaluation to aftercare. They’ve got message boards, forums, recipes and plenty of tips to make your weight loss a success.
I’m going to suggest it to her to see if she might not be a likely candidate. You never know and besides, sometimes you need a little help learning when ‘full’ isn’t ’stuffed to the gills’.
You never know where help is gonna come from.
