Anyone else watch The Biggest Loser?

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: www.nbc.com/.../erik_before1.jpg www.nbc.com/.../erik_finale10.jpg Hard to even believe this is the same guy!

    In the end, it seems foolish to ban TF's when something like cigarettes does far more damage to people everyday and provides an inconvenience to non-smokers in the form of a foul odor. People need to take resposiblity for their own actions, and that includes diet. the sale of cigs is banned to minors, if those guidelines were followed for TF's, that would seem like a reasonable compromise and help bring the libertarians and lefties together. can't we all just get along. at my next party, i will be sure to have a bowl of pork rinds next to the lance crackers. the minors only choice will be dry cheerios. from the left, db
