Who you callin a loser?

(#4) The Biggest Loser Season 11 started tonight! That may sound like a strange thing to be thankful for but it is an awesome show and a great motivator when you are trying to work out. Winter work-outs are hard because you trudge away on a treadmill or elliptical while your mind goes crazy with boredom. Lucky for me The Biggest Loser was on tv at the gym tonight.  It made the time go so fast. Before I knew it I had been on the elliptical for one hour. I really get drawn in to the personal stories. Some of the contestants are so funny and others have really moving histories. I hardly ever cry, especially in front of other people, but this show has me tearing up during almost every episode. I probably look like a big weirdo at the gym. One minute I’m laughing, the next I'm crying and all the while I am still getting red faced and sweaty. What a delightful sight I must be. Not only does this show entertain me, but it helps me keep my pace up. When I start to get really tired and am tempted to slow down I just tell myself that if they can do it than I can too. Plus it is a huge motivator to never let myself get to such a heavy state. Not that I am anywhere near obesity, but it’s always nice to get a little reminder that a healthy lifestyle is definitely the easier route to take.
