So the at home prize the one year was won by .01%. I was so mad I didn't watch the show for a few seasons. (I only watched the finale so don't know what season or who the people were but I had watched previous seasons) <br /><br />If I just watch 1 episode here and there which is what I'd done in the past, I thought it portrayed more of an unhealthy weight loss image than it does now. They talk about exercise. They talk about weight training to have muscle. They talk about eating healthy and make sure to eat. It is just that only little tid bits are in each episode and the main parts of the episodes are the torture of working out on the people and then the weigh in.Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04690377414823039284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-262517490401335977.post-18459047200930619482011-12-07T06:21:50.990-08:002011-12-07T06:21:50.990-08:00I saw that episode too!

That show also bothers me because I think it portrays a seriously unhealthy weight loss image to America.Julie @ The Fetus Fileshttp://thefetusfiles.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
