We have all seen Allison Sweeney gaining her baby belly over the last couple of seasons of the Biggest Loser but today I ran across the first pic of mom and baby on the People Magazine site.

When the time came for mom-of-two Alison Sweeney to shed the weight she gained while pregnant with daughter Megan Hope, 5 months, she drew from her experience as host of NBC’s The Biggest Loser.

“I’ve learned a lot about nutrition and how to count my calories” as a result of the show, she told PEOPLE at the second birthday party for pal Nancy O’Dell’s daughter, Ashby, over the weekend.

Of course, juggling a diet and exercise routine with two small children and a busy career is tough, but Sweeney says she found a great ally in the EA Sports Active package for the Nintendo Wii. Read the rest of this entry »

Looking to make a change and lose some weight? I have reviewed the top diet on the internet and you can go and read over 200 comments people have made about why this diet has worked well for them, as well as some of the problems.

So tonight we sat down and watched the finale of Biggest Loser Families. My daughter, wife, and I had a great time watching everyone looking great after there big losses.

The show started with the decision that America made between Heba and Ed to see which half of the couple was going to be the third finalist.

After the decision that america made they markched out the people that were kicked of the Biggest Loser Families four at a time until there was no more skinny people left. Every time that they brought out another four people we were more shocked at how fantastic they all looked. After the weigh in decided who was the winner of the $100,000 at home trained prize they moved on to showing us the transformations of the final two that we had not already seen.

Now for the spoilers, click the “Read the rest of this story” link to see who won.

Last year we had a great time watching Biggest Loser Couples and I think that as a season went it was really educational, entertaining and had a bit of drama that made it lots of fun to watch. Tomorrow, Tuesday September 16th the next season of Biggest Loser Families starts and I am again really excited to watch and blog about it.

This year there are eight teams of two and to add a bit of confusion there are four teams of husbands and wives and four teams of parent and child. The trainers again this year are Jillian Michaels and Bob Harper.

This year the  Biggest Loser site has a lot of info on the team members as well as a little bio and the starting weight for each participant. Also they are letting us know that the teams are split up with Bob Harper training the husband and wife teams and Jillian Michaels training the parent and child teams. Read the rest of this entry »

Biggest Loser Couples starts next week on NBC just a couple of weeks after the fourth season of hte Biggest Loser ended. I was up early this morning and finally got a chance to look at some ofthe articles and pages from the Biggest Loser site to see what this will be all about.

Biggest Loser Couple format

First of all it looks like the show will be a bit shorter then a regular season of the Biggest Loser, there are only 10 teams instead of what we would expect 18 or so. I have not looked at any kind of scheduling except for the first episode being right on New Years day for two hours. There will be no show competition I would expect that day and everyone with a weight loss New Years resolution would be a prime candidate to watch the two hour premiere.

Well last night was the finale of this seasons version of the Biggest Loser and it was a night of celebration and motivation not a night to watch challenges, gameplay or workouts and not very many tips either. I taped the show as always becasue two hours is too long for any TV show and they use lots and lots of commercials for filler.

The show was broken into two parts, first all of the kicked off players did a weight in to see who would win the $100,000 for the also rans and then the last four did their weight in to see who would be crowned Biggest Loser and wind $250,000.

As they introduced all of the players except the last 4 we were amazed at home at how much weight everyone seemed to lose. There were many ways that these people could have just given up and then not attended the final show but everyone was there and everyone lost a ton of weight. Read the rest of this entry »

I know that I was mad at Neil and was boycotting the Biggest Loser because of the way that he gamed the game but last night I sat down with my wife and we watched the Biggest Loser. Last nights episode was the makeover episode and the biggest losers went onto the set of “Days of our Lives”. It was fun to watch since some of the people on the show really do follow that soap but I have never seen it at all except Allison Sweeney on a commercial one day for the show.

I was shocked at how much weight these guys look like they have lost. They are all looking really slim and Neil (who I still hate for the water drinking incident) seems to be now losing more than anyone. One of the big changes that I always notice on the Biggest Loser is how all of the people look younger every week the more weight that they lose.

Kay got kicked off the show and I think it was kind of ineveitable but i am not really sure how the strategies work on the show. As we know she has lost the most weight percentage-wise but she would not be losing much each weight anymore I think. Last night they brought Kay back and after 3 months at home she lost another 18 pounds. That is fantastic! She is really slim and healthy looking and espeically when you compare how she looked when the show started.

I guess I will be back on the Biggest Loser bandwagon now. The show is fun to watch and it seems that no one is holding any grudges for game play.

One other thing that I did notice last night was the stupid product endorsements. Jillian is walking and talking and out of no where she says

“Sometimes you don’t need a snack, Just have a piece of Wrigleys Gum” and she pulls out a pack of gum.

Drives me crazy.
