The Biggest Loser
I like watching the show, but sometimes they make me mad. The Dad on the yellow team lost five pounds this week and his daughter lost six. They needed to lose thirteen to stay above the yellow line. The host asked the Dad if he felt like he let his daughter down. He almost cried. I don’t see any reason she had to ask that. The daughter said he didn’t let her down; she’s just proud he’s there and trying.
Five pounds is a lot in one week for most people! How could that be a letdown in any sense of the word! I just feel that sometimes they make it harder emotionally on the contestants that they need to. The show is supposed to be encouraging people and helping, not making them feel bad.
I do like that it helps people get their health back; I just wish some of the stuff was left unsaid.
Just my little rant!
I agree. I think losing weight is tough, they shouldn’t be booted when your body controls your weight loss, not just yourself.
I don’t know a good way to do the voting off part. I just don’t agree with them making someone feel bad about losing five pounds…like that’s a bad thing.
