Anyone else totally inspired by this show? I just saw the finale and I couldn't believe how much weight these people have lost solely through diet and exercise. They all looked so happy and great.

Oh absolutely!!! I LOVE the show!! I always cry through most of the show, lol
 
Biggest Loser Diet (anyone Interested?)

Ok I Have The Biggest Loser Book And Am Going To Get The Dvd Workout Before The First But I Will Need Support From Others So I Was Interested In Finding Out Who Else May Be Interested In This Also And Maybe We Could Post Some Tips And Stuff To Get A Bunch Of Peaopl Into Doing This!:) :)
 
Its definatly something I'm interested in. I do have my reservations though. THis 1200 cal diet seems to work well for me. I'll think about it for a while :)
 
I am definitely intrigued, but I'm not sure what it all entails because I've never seen the book or anything. Can you give us like a brief run down of what the "diet" is etc?? I would love to get into another group weight loss project together! Too bad I didn't ask for the book for xmas!
 
Hi,

I love the show and there will be a special 1 night 2 hours show in January. A special edition sort to speak. I believe they will be using some of the families they had on in the past and have a different family member do the same thing. I believe it's all done in 2 hours. For those who have never saw the show it will give you a really good idea on what it's all about.

i'm sorry, i dont know anything about the biggest loser diet. i missed most of the episodes on tv too!
 
They have a book out now. It gives the run down on the diet and excersize plan they use on the show. If I get time I'll post more specifically what they do later
 
Newbride can you be in charge of this please? I was gonna try but I have way to much going on and I will post some things from the book to help you when I get a chance but several already have the book but I think they are wanting to start the first of the year! We can help those who dont have the book yet!
 
Ok, i agree we can help the others that are interested by posting stuff from the book, and i'd be happy to kinda 'run' the show...but I dont' know how many people are actually intrested in this kind of a diet???? I want to think about it tonight myself b/c this 1200 cal diet seems to work well for me.

Lets wait a couple days and see if anyone signs up for it
 
K its up to you but I am glad you are helping I have my hands full finding a house and moving and a nephew was in a bad wreck this morn I just cant be in charge. Kim and Julie and christina va have the book and a few others so its up to you if that is working then its up to you i just need HELP BAD lol
 
And i am short on time these days to run a show lol You would be great as the HOST!!!!
 
Ok, I am really interested in doing this biggest loser "show" too! I guess I need to break down and buy the book. :)
 
I'd like to know more before I purchase it. Like, how many cals, are they 'normal' foods, how mauc exercise and if I would need a gym membership.
 
Here is some basic info on the diet...if you don't have the book, this should help you.....

weight/calories (to loose, not maintain)

150...1050
160...1120
170...1190
180...1260
190...1330
200...1400
210...1470
220...1540
230...1610
240...1680
250...1750
260...1820
270...1890
280...1960
290...2030
300...2100

If you are over 300, then you need to eat 2100 a day.

Thats how you know how many cals to eat in a day. A breakdown of the food section is as follows...

Breakfast
1/2 protien serving
1 whole grain serving
1 fruit serving

snack
1/2 protein serving
1 fruit serving

LUNCH
1 protein serving
1/2 whole grain serving
1 veggie serving

SNACK
1/2 protien serving
1 fruit serving

DINNER
1/2 protien serving
1/2 whole grain serving
2 veggie servings

You are allowed an extra 200 cals for condiments, healthy foods, healthy fats

Servings are as follows

Fruit serving...(4 servings a day MINIMUM)...1 cup, 1 md. piece or 8 oz (advoid dried fruit)

Veggie Serving...(4 servings a day MINIMUM)...1 cup, or 8 oz (advoid white potatoes)

Protien serving... (3 servings a day)...1 cup, or 8 oz (easy on red meat)

Whole grain serving...(2 servings a day)...2 slices bread (preferably 'light'), 1 whole grain bun or roll, 2 light wasa flatbreads, 1 whole wheat flour tortilla, or 1 cup (rice)


Excersize

The book has a detailed workout plan....but given most of us dont' have the resources, I would just encourage everyone to do the VERY BEST you can. Don't cut corners. Look for every possible opportunity to fit excersize in your day.


I hope this helps, let me know if you have more questions!!
 
Yeah it is a bit much, but.. the idea is fun :)
