My predictions - Reality TV

A few thoughts about reality TV. There are a few shows that mean a lot to me.
First, thanks to Van and LaMar (mom and dad) I'm a fan of Dancing with the Stars. I've been watching for about 4 years now. Who do I think is going to win...well although Melissa is good and has the sympathy vote I believe Cheryl Burke and her partner Gillis Marini will take it home. This guy is AWESOME. I think Denise Richards is also someone to watch out for. Total potential!

Second, American Idol. I have mixed feelings about this show. I don't watch the first month of it because I don't think it's healthy to make someone into a joke. Although some may deserve it and yes I'm sure they sign off their legal rights and FOX has all these disclaimers but it just seems unethical. Having said that my top three would be Lil, Adam and Danny. Who do I think will win it all? Danny Gokey. American Idol is watched by people of all ages. Adam probably should win it at the end but I think the older crowd will vote for Danny.









Last but not least...Biggest Loser is by far my very favorite show to watch. As some of you know I'm a big fan of health and fitness. It's a way to boost your own morale and self esteem. You are fascinated of what you can do and how far you can push your body. These people have committed themselves to a TOTAL lifestyle change. That's huge! I get a bit choked up every show. This season (8) is different. They have taken people who are obese and I mean really obese were talking in the 400-500lbs range. Not all the contestants fall in that category but some.
Mike Morelli is my favorite.

He is 18 and has already lost 100lbs in 6 weeks. You can see the skinny kid in his face now. It's so refreshing to see that they are still voting people off that ask for it or know that they can succeed at home. It hasn't turned into this "out to get one another" as some seasons have done.


Mike and his father, Ron, AKA the Brown Team, have a lot of weight to loose still. The picture you see is at the beginning of the season. They are now losing 5-11 pounds a week. That's soooo great! I really hope Mike wins. Can you please look at these trainers...


I'm thinking of gaining 200+ lbs to get on Biggest Loser just so I can work out with Bob...HOLY HOT!!

We love the Biggest Loser!!! My goal is to someday have a body like Jillian. I guess I will have to lay off the McDonalds cheeseburgers first.

P.S. You couldn't gain 200lbs if you tried. You are in too great of shape.
