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!

I guess I'll have to jump in on the controversy. So, are there no benefits whatsoever to vegies that are loaded with antioxidants? What about red wine? Doesn't that grape do something great for us beside making us want another glass? Why do all the docs on talk shows praise antioxidants?
Wait, I know, they are the new recruits to the food police trying to get us to eat our vegies to keep our weight down so the health companies won't have to fork over more $$$$$.
Here's a statement that may blow some people away. And I have my coat of armour on for all the bullets that may come my way: I say NO to sunscreen. After I saw the study the Mayo Clinic did, I threw mine away.
Okay, I'm ready for the bullets to fly, see? I have my protective eyewear on.:cool:
