Best Television Episode of All Time

Last night Mrs Reed83 and I watched "The Biggest Loser" fianlly. I will go on record as saying this was the greatest television episode I have ever seen in my life.

To watch these people dedicate themselves to getting in shape and losing so much weight is incredibly motivating. The winner started the contest at like 407. He finished in the 180's I think.

Statistically, they will put weight back on because they lost so much in a short time. But they made a lifestyle change and that is crucial.

I say great job NBC and it is a nice break from the 600 different versions of CSI and Some derivation of Wife Swap.

I packed my gym bag last night, got up at 5:00 am, did the elliptical for 30 minutes with 15 minutes of weights. I feel fucking great.

They also had people who were I guess voted off and still lost weight at home. They guy who won was like 308 and finished at like 153. It was crazy.

i like to think that if all i had to do in the course of the day was exercise and eat right that i could into killer shape as well. of course, that opportunity isn't exactly on the horizion.
