do these shows really make you wanna lose weight...i sort of feel that way...secretly i been trying out the things i see on these shows lol...anyone else do the same??

id say its about 50/50....some of them are insightful while others are just plain out of this world...but none the less...i always watch cuz im addicted to things like that lol

I just bought the Biggest Loser Cookbook. The lady that wrote it adheres to what she calls Healthy Decadence. It's pretty informative and I even joined the BL club website. Every little bit helps. I've already lost 20 lbs. I think the show is an inspiration even though I can't drop 30 lbs in one week

your right...every little bit does help...as far as reality shows helping, i always take a look and consider wat goes on in the show...but it doesn't help that im obsessed with them lol...there's new ones this week, with liftime's diettribe, which looks intense with jessie pavelka leading the way: YouTube - DietTribe TONIGHT at 10pm ET on Lifetime! ...that one on the discovery channel national body challenge looks cool as well!

i saw the diettribe episode last night...was inspirational to see these women working so hard and determined...i actually wanted to excercise right then and there because of it...didn't expect it to have that much of an impact on me
