If people truly want to lose weight, it has to be done with lifestyle changes, not just something to produce the desired effect. It's not possible for the everyday person to spend 6 hours a day training and eating just enough to keep their bodies going. I commend Ms. Falkiner for admitting that the show didn't give her the results she sought. Thanks for the post. Hi, I just found your blog, and just had to respond.

Most people do keep off the weight that they have lost on the show. I belong to a fernwood club where Damiens mum goes from the show and as far as i know he is still losing the weight. And then theres kristie of the adds. Plus theirs Adro who has kept it off. Although The amount of exercise they do is unrealistic for most people. they are taught to eat healthy.

I think the bigger issue is, it shows that just dieting temporarily isn't the answer -- to get healthy and stay fit is an ongoing lifestyle change. It would be more responsible if the show provided some sort of follow up care for these folks, rather then leaving them alone once the cameras are turned off.

I do watch "You Are What You Eat" (I think that's what it's called) because at least the host shows them how to make a lifestyle change, what foods they should be eating and exercise in moderation. That's the hardest thing to learn I think and Biggest Loser just doesn't remotely offer anything like that to its contestants.

Losing weight is a difficult thing to do, but of course it is easy on a show like that..
