Despite my views on diet pills and the like, my mum has just started taking CLA after reading lots of rave reviews about and one of her friends suggesting it to her having found success with it herself. I don’t actually think my mum needs to lose any more weight, she has a BMI in the healthy category but if it’s going to make her more happy and confident then so be it 
I am not sure how much I like the new Masterclass episode on The Biggest Loser Australia, I really like the idea behind it because the show doesn’t usually offer such information – but honestly I prefer the drama, I’d rather see the walk than 20 minutes of Shannan and Michelle showing us how to strengthen our core.
I suppose it doesn’t help that most of the information so far is pretty basic – do this stretch, take this vitamin, don’t eat too much oil etc.
Still love the show though
Bob and Jillian annoy me more and more each episode. I think it’s safe to say my days of hero worshipping them are long gone.
They get far too involved in the drama and just seem to be being fake and acting the whole time.
Now don’t get me wrong that woman on the red team is annoying, every time she does a piece to camera I want to turn over, she seems like the sort of woman that you’d see coming towards you and groan and instantly start thinking about your escape strategy – she’s just so brash. But the whole “How dare you doubt us, we know everything” nonsense from Bob and Jill after she weighed in was ridiculous – no Boblian, you might know a lot but you don’t know everything. How many times have we had shots of them, hands on head, mouths wide open saying “I don’t know how that happened” after someone has weighed in? Either when they had done an amazing result or when they had done a poor one – there has been many times Bob and Jillian didn’t understand a result so they need to stfu!
Speaking of dieting and the like – how about 4 months away with two of the best trainers in the world instead of fast weight loss pills – you can’t really get any better than that.
Yup that’s right, my favourite TV show ever is coming back in less than two weeks time. The Biggest Loser Australia season five kicks off on Janurary 31st and I can not wait.
I will miss Ajay though.
I just got around to watching the second episode of The Biggest Loser, it takes me about a week to download anything at the moment because my ISP is throttling p2p traffic – it’s a total pain but I can’t get away as I am still within my 12 month contract.
Note to anyone reading, never go on o2 access!
So two main observations.
* Why would any one ever turn to weight loss pills after seeing what can be achieved on these shows? One dude has lost almost 50 pounds in 2 weeks – are you serious?
* Bob and Jillian should never consider acting, the segment where Bob had on the White team guys weight and the one where poor Jillian was forced to eat processed food – some of the most cringe-worthy moments on TV, ever!
Roll on episode 3
Have you ever wondered what the top rated diet pills are? I have always said that I don’t really think diet pills are the right way to go, shows like The Biggest Loser prove it can be done without them – but if you are going to use them you are better off knowing which ones to spend your money on. So be sure to do your research first people
Isn’t it amazing? Isn’t it awesome? Isn’t it a wonderful example to set to the millions of people watching?
Erm, no.
Really, 101 pounds in seven weeks is not healthy, it’s not responsible, it’s not realistic and it’s not a good example to set. It only goes to highlight the thing about The Biggest Loser I really don’t like – honestly, congratulations to Rudy as it’s a pretty mind blowing thing to have done.
But where is this show going to be in another 5 years time? 800lb contestants? Losing 20lbs a week? Someone losing 100lbs in 3 weeks? If each season has to be bigger and better than the last, it is really a scary thought.
The Biggest Loser USA is back..and I am already concerned and wondering how many people will be reaching for the best diet pills at the end of the season.
I think in general the show is great and sends a good message. But it’s just unrealistic, it’s not healthy to lose weight as fast as they do and I am sure ‘normal’ people come away at the end having ‘only’ lost 20lbs compared to their 200lbs feeling miserable about themselves 
I need to shift this blasted belly fat. I have lost a lot of weight over the last few years as you know and am down to those pesky last few pounds and they all seem to be hanging out on my belly!
Hopefully the new season of The Biggest Loser USA that starts this week will motivate and inspire me and help me along the way
