Eating Ice Cream While Watching People Exercise…
What can I say about Jillian Michaels that hasn’t already been said? Nothing. But I can talk about ‘The Biggest Loser’.
The Wife and I had some weird habits that always seemed to coincide with this show. Most nights, we don’t eat dessert. But for whatever reason, maybe enormous people working out, I would always make a bowl of ice cream during this show. Which just seems wrong. The game we’d always play was to see how many times the actors could say ‘last chance workout’ during the last chance workouts. Seriously, it was always double digits. You’d think they were getting paid by the keyword.
But by and far, the best parts were the in-show advertisements. Why? Because these people were the worst pitchmen ever. They were absolutely unconvincing. Even the trainers sounded like they were reading from a card or had worked really hard memorizing their lines. Just awful.
Great stuff.

I love the Biggest Loser but I must admit, I usually ate something I shouldn’t while watching too LOL

I’ve never watched the Biggest Loser, but my little one has me watching “Losing It with Jillian.” It has some nice, touching moments.
Here’s another odd one…to me anyway… After the hubby’s hockey games, after my soccer games, after you run a race, they always provide beer, donuts, pastries, etc. at the end. To me, that’s nasty. I’d like a banana or a cool bottle of water. Why would I possibly want to reload on fatty calories that I just sweat to death to burn off? Or what really floors me is when they light up right after. Ewwww!

Everyone I know eats during that show. We should all be lifting weights but yet, it makes me hungry.
