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!
To be completely honest I'm not really opposed to banning transfats ... as far as I am concerned take them out of everything ... I just think it's a slippery slope ... aspartame posioning has killed people, and lead to cancer in rats ...
Guns are dangerous and kill (don't give me the guns don't kill people, people kill people crap either) ... I'm in favor of more strict hand gun laws, too ...
The question is where does it end ... why were transfats put into food in the first place and how many deaths are we really preventing? I think we may delay them, but prevent them? I doubt it ...
