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!

  • 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 Hey. Watch out there. Lack of foundation. Can't you be a libertarian on certain issues and a leftie? I've been a Democrat my whole life, raised by a family of democrats. Besides, I read that most of the alleged libertarians were not actually ingesting TFs, just getting on the case of folks who couldn't resist them. And are we not supposed to refrain from discussing political nuances unrelated to swimming, like the seepage of certain things into public schools? From the left, Vesper. P.S. I love to swim. I'm going to swim any minute now before my kids get home from the public schools.
