Watching the Biggest Loser UK last night I was stunned and dissapointed with a number of points throughout, so in no particular order I will just spill out my views.
The little if any weight losses measured was not understandable initially until the programme then hinted at the food must be a problem - I thought the trainers and nutritionist where getting the contestants to record what they ate on the ipads they keep showing and the website they keep plugging - have they not looked over the last 4 weeks, not very encouraging to say the least.
The tactical voting at the end to eliminate the Biggest Loser of the week, quite frankly stinks! so much for TEAM work. Surely if you want to be the best you have to beat the best...not just vote them off so you don't have to face them.
The temptation challenge is ridiculous, I know it is suppose to reflect the "outside world" but they won't be offered 4lbs weight loss if you eat some cakes, so hardly real - they would be better teaching people how to lose 4lbs or find better alternatives that could be chosen. I was hoping the programme would encourage people to lose weight, get fit and achieve great things for themselves, but leaves me thinking why should people bother.I hope this is not how it leaves others feeling who could do with losing some weight, as great things are achievable and many of my clients are achieving excellent results so don't be put off by a programme that must be put in the entertainment only category, rather than educational and encouraging.
It will be interesting to see what happens next week when we see what the contestants have been eating and what advice they have been given along the way, some may have intolerances to certain food groups will this have been tested? have they been eating high fat, low protein? will the contestants start losing the weight they deserve? lets hope they get the rewards and the programme, trainers and nutritionist step up and stop treating it like some Biggest Brother style programme.
