I have been watching NBC's The Biggest Loser for 13 seasons now. What is my facination with this show? Yes, it can be inspirational, yes the feuding can be amusing, yes I love seeing new workouts that the trainers make their contestants do. But those things alone don't have me tuning in every week or counting down the days until the next season starts. Or ever better, have me wanting to give birth on any other day other than the finale which is exactly what happened on May 12, 2009.
In watching the show tonight I have realized that it is really the personal stories and stuggles each of these people have gone through that have contributed to their obesity. Some of the stories are so incredibly heartbreaking that I wonder if I endured the personal tragedy that some of these contestents have edured if I too would be in a similar situation either with weight or alcohol or drugs.
I feel so lucky to have the life I do. A wonderful husband, who would do anything for me and our kids. Two beautiful, healthy kids that have changed my world more than they can ever know.
I look forward to the many fun years we have ahead of us. Seeing my kids grow up start families of their own and growing old with my best friend. I canm't wait for our little piece of heavin in the boondocks of North Carolina :)
