I hope I'm wrong.

Just a few weeks ago I was talking about how much I love Biggest Loser.

I talked about how genuine and heartfelt it was. 

But tonight's episode has me questioning things. 

I was telling my boyfriend at dinner tonight just how proud I was of the show for sticking to its guns. 

When the "star" of this season, Ruben Studdard, was voted off last week, I was proud that they stayed true to the process. 

But low and behold, this week Jillian gets "penalized" and Ruben gets his ticket back on the show. 

Really? In 15 seasons this has never happened. A trainer has never been penalized, and no one has gotten to come back on the ranch to right some sort of alleged wrong. 

I call bullshit. I hope I'm wrong. 

Biggest Loser: Season 15!

It is ridiculous how much I love this show.
Reality TV is not my think.
TV in general is not my thing.

But I seriously look forward to Biggest Loser every year. 

Because it's more than TV. 

It's an inspiration. It's about more than just ratings. It's about bettering your life. 

And I plan on doing just that. 

It's very fitting that this season is about second chances.
Last year I pledged to ** to a more healthy lifestyle.
And I've mostly done that, though not with the fervor I had originally had when I was watching the show (and keeping myself accountable on another blog).
I'm taking this as an opportunity at a second chance of really changing my life.
Last year, when I was eating better, drinking more water and exercising consistently, I felt better. I got more out of life.
But then life gets in the way. Deadlines take precedence.
Working out seems irresponsible when my house is a mess.
I'm still eating much better than I was in the past (though I should be honest, this morning I had a donut for breakfast--so I'm not exactly doing the best either).
But it's time to kick it up a notch.
And Biggest Loser is just the right way to get back on track!
