I watched it some last season, but only caught the finale of this season that aired last night. Unbelievable! At least a couple people on the show lost over 50% of their original weight.
The winner, Erik, went from over 400 pounds to under 195. Look at these before and after photos:

Hard to even believe this is the same guy!
Hmm, removing trans fats will not solve every problem in the world, so saving a few tens of thousands of lives is clearly a waste of time. I question this logic.
I think our difference of opinions is that you think it's acceptable for the government to tell me what I can and cannot eat. I prefer to leave decisions like that to the individual.
There are many things that cause tens of thousands of deaths each year. Which are you willing to leave to elected officials to decide? No thanks, I have enough gov't in my life as is.
Taking trans fat out of the hands of an obese population is like throwing a deck chair off the titanic.
