The key word you said is "diet plans." Diets almost always fail. It's the lifestyle change that counts. Of course youre going to gain after you quit South Beach, or Atkins, or any other eating plan or workout plan. My criticism is that what's on the show isn't a realistic lifestyle plan, working out that much and having others choose your food for you. You just can't live life like that, unless you're a celebrity, or super wealthy.

I have to admit, I'm a big fan of the show. I get so inspired watching the "contestants" work out and lose weight. I started running because I saw a 300 lb guy (Micheal) running on the treadmill. Of course, my knees couldn't take it. BUT, the point is, they are trying. They may have crazy expectations, but they do have dr's and staff to check on them. I don't think it's the best route, but it's TV. I know it's not realistic. But it is inspiring.
