I'm definitely interested in the show...high hopes here
I'm crossing my fingers and hoping the emphasis is on making changes you can keep up for a lifetime, and not on losing the weight as quickly as possible

WOW! What an amazing and inspiring show. I sure hope they do updates for these people to see where they get at some point. I can't wait for the show next week.

Interesting show. I wasn't sure what to expect. I think it's awesome how those two people have put in so much hard work. I'm glad I don't have that far to go but I wish them all the best in their journeys.

The stories were interesting, and I'm always one for an inspiring weigh loss story. Yet, the way they planned it out tv show wise, I'm reserving judgement for now. I'm not sure I like a persons entire journey in one show. It'll probably do wonders with re-run capabilities for the network though.

It was inspiring.
It's very real to me - in the struggle these folks have. It seems like they concentrated alot on the movement and the exercising & working out of these people. I hope they even go further into the living with food. It may not be their goal. No matter - I thought it was a great format. It was a real chance for them to start the change. I hope that at some point they follow up. Also - it would be nice to know if they have trainers now and how they have changed their environments.
There's only so much you can see in an hour.LOL

I thought the show was great. I like that we got a bit of their story and throughout, understood their struggles. I also thought that focusing on food should be more a part of the show.
Even the exercise that they were doing was not outrageous like biggest loser. I was never worried that they were going to hurt themselves. Will definately watch next week.

I saw the show last night. My impression was lots of exercise but they didn't show much about food choices.

Overall, I think I liked it - I wished they focused a bit more on food tho. As in, what they ate for breakfast each day! But I liked that it was intense exercise, but not going to have a heart attack exercise! I think my favourite part was the woman who, although I found her a bit unpleasant, was very REAL. Those tears for failure, for letting the husband down, fear of the unknown, really seemed genuine. And her caveat that NO, everything is not all sunshine and rainbows JUST because you lose weight - if you have toxic things in your life (like her mother or unsupportive friends) it'll still be there when you're thinner, I liked that "real" quality. I'll tune in again!

I wanted to watch it but I think something was going on with our cable company because the channel had nothing but a "no signal" screen from the time I turned over there 10 minutes prior to showtime up until the end of the hour (I flipped over several times to try to catch it). Hoping I can find it somewhere online to watch later, I really did want to see it

I enjoyed it, I like that it wasn't a competition, no alliances, lies etc. Just them, doing what they have to do. I agree that the food could have been more of a focus, but no biggie. I also hope that they do follow ups. I'll watch it again.

This show... I cried a few times. I really believe I was there or very close to there and nearly everyone in my family is there. It was hard to watch.
