Quick Question

Work is busy as hell. Damn, I hate the beginning of the year. It is trying to interfere with my working out but I am trying to keep that to a minimum.

Here is my quick question....was everyone inspired by the new season of Biggest Loser last night? I ask because last night, there were a ton of ladies signing up for new gym memberships (one of my gyms just opened in a new location and it has been upgraded) and today's Zumba class at the other location was packed. The Wednesday 4:30 Zumba is not usually too popular. I like my classes smaller, although I must say good to those who are exercising.

Did you all see it? I just love weight loss stories, everyone's - including yours. I liked the show but what is with that gay youth pastor? Okay, I know he is married with children but I think he just doesn't know he's gay yet.....or perhaps he does.....

LMAO.

I notice every time a new BL starts, theres always more people at the gym. I know I should be happy but its like a new years resolution, they come for a couple of times and I never see them again.(It could be that they dont go the same time as me anymore)

I have to watch last nights episode again. I wasnt very inspired. Why are Jillian and Bob not having teams?

I did notice that Bob seemed to be the "bad guy" and Jillian was more tolerant than normal. I was def inspired by Abby (think she will be my fav this season). I like her "grit"!

LOL....the youth pastor is TOTALLY gay!!

Loving Shay and Coach Mo!

yes the pastor, oh honey. i was like, when you call your wife to tell her you're type 2 diabetic you might as well also tell her you fell in love with Bob. when Dan picked Shay FIRST to be his partner tears JUMPED out of my eyes, that was such an awesome moment.

Gay youth pastor's hair was killing me! It looks like a bad toupee....

I am always amazed by what they accomplish, but this season Jillian's screaming at the contestants really got to me.

I love the stories of the people, especially the poor lady who lost her entire family.

I'm not sure I'm going to watch it all this year.

I should have watched longer. I shut if off when the contestants were working out and the trainers were screaming at them. I am always happy for those who lose weight, but I find the show very unrealisitc.

Unknown said...

I love the Biggest Loser..weight loss stories does inspire me...I know it seems unrealistic to lose 28 pounds in a week...but when your as heavy as some of those men were and your exercising up to 8 hours a day you can lose that much in a week...I have to keep that in mind...cause I would love to lose 10 pounds in one week! LOL

Ha! I thought I was the only one who thought there was something off about him.

I wouldn't be surprised if Biggest Loser is responsible for the uptick. It was incredibly inspirational, and a whole bunch of people tuned in. I remember reading in variety that it was the biggest fall season premier the show had had since 2004.

Diane, Fit to the Finish said...

It is inspirational, but I was really turned off by Jillian's screaming. That just doesn't motivate me personally.

The people though? Amazing.

How funny! I have a big crush on him. I also have a lot of gay friends. Could there be a connection? ;)
