I love The Biggest Loser, and have watched ever US and Australian season since it started airing. I even downloaded the entry form four years ago, but chickened out half way through completing it.
When reading TV Week today I discovered that Michelle Bridges, one of the Aussie trainers, is offering a twelve week, online training program. I checked the site and watched the recruitment video. It's $199 up-front (or $19.95 per week, which ends up about $40 more over all) and includes exercise, diet and psychological components, to help shift participants' mindsets. This last is particularly interesting to me, as I do already have a handle on what to eat, though portion size is still challenging.
Apparently the online training can be of use to everyone from beginners to advanced participants, and there are prizes along the way. I'm interested to see how she balances it all, and apprehensive but excited. I also think that forking over the money will add to my commitment to actually doing it - I've never been a gym person and so in the past the idea of wasted money hasn't propelled me to exercise when I've lost interest.
I know I was launching myself on the Real Age program next week, but now I plan to combine the two - using the 12 week program as a basis and starting point, but supplementing and replacing some foods with Real Age recommendations if that doesn't affect the 12 week program. - Alex
