For those of you that don’t my guilty pleasure, it’s The Biggest Loser. I started watching the show when I was studying abroad in Sydney where we only had three channels (no joke). I might have loved TBL Australia because Shannon, the trainer, is a dreamboat. However, I still do enjoy the U.S. rendition. Here’s why:
· I always love a good competition.
· I love watching, reading and learning about fitness. Of course I am that girl that buys every US Weekly & People Magazine about how Kelly Osbourne lost 14 pounds in 10 days.
· The ad plug-ins are hilarious and remind me of the Saved By the Bell episode on subliminal messaging.
· Okay yes I will admit I might feel a little better about myself when watching. I mean I hate to admit it, but we are all thinking it.
· The contestants really do have amazing stories and it is truly unbelievable to see how much weight they lose.
· Somehow these contestants really think there is some huge strategy to winning. Hello, haven’t we all learned by now the key is a balance between diet and exercise, some of us just choose to ignore that formula (especially at 3 a.m. on Friday night at In ‘n Out).
· I really like seeing everyone’s personal temptations. Who knows what mine would be? Done guessing, ok peach cobbler.
· After watching a 2 hour episode I somehow feel like I too have worked out. That maybe isn’t a good thing…
Who I wish wasn't eliminated?
Why you ask? Because he’s hilarious and said, “I want to take a cupcake and rub it all over my body!”
How can you not love someone that says! He is hilarious and hopefully he didn't go home and actually a rub a cupcake all over his body. I'll miss you and your rosy cheeks Sean.
Who else out there watches TBL? I know there are a few of you out there…
