The biggest loser
Does anyone watch the show The Biggest Loser? Well if you do and if you don't there are two guys who are the youngest and really overweight. Mike is 18 and Dan is 19. Dan weighed in at close to 500 lbs. when he arrived. Sadly Dan was sent home last night. I just had to cry because out of everyone there I felt Dan needed to stay there the most. On the bright side they showed Dan today and he's lost 101 lbs. total and is off some kind of diabetic medicine. I hope Dan continues to believe in himself and doesn't give up. I just wanted to comment on that. I love that show, it makes me cry just about every episode; I don't care if it's scripted I think it's powerful and can teach something to everyone no matter what your size.

I hear ya, Lara! I'm not watching this season (due to not enough hours in my day!) but I've watched some of the seasons in the past and this show is soooo inspiring - I love it. It's so neat to see these people transform their lives from the inside out and do things they never thought they were capable of. It's a great reminder that we all can do a LOT better at taking care of our own bodies and that being healthy is a permanant lifestyle switch that we have to subscribe to, not some temporary diets here and there.
Love Jillian, but she's a little over the top at times... I think I'd prefer Bob as my trainer. What about you? :)
I was sad that he went home too, but I don't think his partner really deserved to be there. Did you know the blue team, the Polynesian cousins, are LDS?
