Darn- they rescheduled my sleep study for this Tuesday. I'm suppose to get there at 9pm, which means I'm going to miss the first hour...and I don't think having to watch your favorite show qualifies for needing an early arival time. I'll be taping it, but it just isn't the same as watching as it happens

Can you show up early and start watching the show in the waiting room?

I'm making myself leave early- I know if I don't leave before 8pm, I'll get sucked in. To make matters worse, my sleep study was scheduled for Sunday night, but they canceled it...and forgot to tell me, so I drove the 90miles round trip for nothing

Dang! Maybe you can TiVo it or have someone do it for you..?

I just got around to reading Gary's blog, and I like this paragraph - it RESONATED:

Quote:
Leaving the ranch as a finalist is a great feeling knowing that all you have done in the game has gotten you to where you want to be. Going home is never going to feel so good again but there is no time to rest for the finalists and you will now be put to one of the last tests. Now it is time to take what you have learned and go as far as you can until the finale. But the ultimate test won't come until the finale is over and they go home to live their normal everyday lives. No more cameras, no more game, nothing more to think about but the real motivation that got you to the game in the first place. YOUR HEALTH. And with that said your motivation to stay healthy is what it's all about. The Biggest Loser helped change my life and watching season 2 brought back many emotions for me. But none as great as knowing that I did the work and I lost the weight I maintained my weight loss and have improved my health.
