The Big BLOB Weight Loss Blog

I was checking out the NBC Biggest Loser Site … and though I was interested in the SHOW contestants, what I find is interesting me and motivating me the MOST is the 36 at home contestants.

I think this is because they match my own circumstances more. I don’t have a personal trainer yelling at me 5 hours a day. I don’t have unlimited time to exercise and engage in the process of losing weight. I don’t have millions of people watching my fat flap all over the place, to motivate me to do better.

Have you joined the BIGGEST LOSER CLUB yet? It is the BEST of motivators. Play along with the at home contestants and let them motivate you to eat better and exercise more!

Are you watching the show? Are you using it to motivate you to eat healthier, exercise more?

I definitely am. I have been walking every single day. Whenever I think of the show’s contestants exercising for HOURS on end, I am able to tell myself that I am getting off easy when I take my “break a sweat” 30 minute walks.

In the last episode, Tiffany (Blue Team) from Texas was eliminated. What do you think? Was she the right person to go? It is very hard to really tell the contestant’s personalities because of course the program’s producers can make anyone look good or bad depending on what they decide to show and how they edit the clips.

In the first series of the program, the guy that won, was portrayed as a total jerk for about the first 3/4 of the episodes, then he started looking better and better … not just physically!

Maybe I should run a contest … Guess WHO the biggest loser will be?

Someone asked, “what the cost of the online Biggest Loser Club is.”

It’s just under $20 a month (US dollars). And for that you get diet and exercise programs, a weight tracker, exercise demos, meal plans, recipes, shopping lists, access to the member forums, online chats with the trainers and the Ranch participants … and more.

I’m actually concerned that it may keep you away from my Blog! Oh well. My main goal is to help you get the resources you need in order to get healthy … Slim, Trim, Strong, Fit and Maybe Even Downright Skinny!

Please DO come back and let us know about your progress … and how you are finding the program. There are dozens of programs available, and the important thing is to keep on trying until you find a program or a book or “something” that helps you achieve your goals.

Some people swear by Weight Watchers, others just rave about Curves. I’ve never been a group person, so I’m hoping that The Biggest Loser Club will inspire me … together with the TV show for a weekly shot of watching other people who are in the same BIG BLOB boat as I am!

Who here hasn’t watched at least ONE episode of the TV program, The Biggest Loser?

Another season has started, and this time I intend to play along and use the program to inspire and motivate me. This season, there is a new tool to help … The Biggest Loser Club.

In the first episode, they started out with 50 contestants and rapidly narrowed it down to the regular 14. The people who weren’t chosen to stay at the Ranch, are still competing, though from home … JUST LIKE THE REST OF US. They were all given memberships into the online Biggest Loser Club and like us, can avail themselves of all the resouces.

Why don’t you play along with me? You can join the on-line club or not … but do let the program move you closer to your weight-loss goals.

If you join the online club, you will have access to custom created diets and exercise programs. You can get tips and motivation from former losers and from the program coaches.

Regardless, come back here often. Add a comment, let us know if you are willing to start a 12 week program to regain your health and good looks. Let us know about your successes and about your struggles. Share your recipes, your exercise hints and your motivational tips.

We can all be WINNERS in the Big Loser Game!

Yesterday I mentioned the new website I’d found (well it’s not new … the fact that I found it is the new part!)

I was looking for some leggings for myself. I LOVE leggings and none of the local stores sell them! I came across the “shop by shape” function on the website. Very neat. First you identify your shape (hourglass, triangle, inverted triangle, oval) and then the program helps you find styles that are flattering for that shape!

What a good idea. Check it out at Just My Size … the shop by shape function is a link right on the top menu of the site.
