Applying To Be On The Biggest Loser
I spent much of my life overweight. At some point in my life, I grew tired of the fact, and felt compelled to fix it. Instead of doing it the old fashioned way, through a home made diet and exercise plan, I decided to try something more exotic. The Biggest Loser was my way of getting into shape. Somehow, someway I would find a way to get on that show.
I went onto the internet, and took a look at a site called biggest loser forum, which I found out had all types of information about diet and weight loss, exercise programs, helpful hints and they even had chat rooms where people can discuss the issues surrounding their weight loss program with people who are going through similar situations. After a bit of searching, I was able to find the application link and learned what the process would be to apply for the show. The process included filling out the application and creating a video The video had to be something that would wow the people who chose the contestants and was supposed to be between five and fifteen minutes long. I had to condense my whole life story into just a few minutes that would be fun to watch. My whole life story was hanging in the balance as I prepared all of the necessary materials for the casting department of the show.
I filled out my application, made my video and waited, knowing that if I was lucky enough to be chosen to be on the show I would be taught how to lose weight fast, something that I knew would help me to live a long and healthy life that I could share with my family, and something that I felt was much needed. Despite all of my efforts I was sent a rejection letter. I guess I didn’t fit the needs of the show. Even thought the show turned me down, I knew that there were still issues for me to deal with. I decided that even though the Biggest Loser wasn’t go to help me, I would help myself.
I made the commitment to start to eat healthy and begin exercising, which at first meant doing sets of six pack ab exercises in my living room every night until I was able to get the money together to join a fitness club and get the professional help that I needed to reach the goals that I had set for myself, and to lead me in my new healthy lifestyle. There were plenty of weight loss systems available to me, but I did not use them. Amazingly the weight started to come off. I kept track of the reality show that I had hoped to be on while I worked at home, thinking about how I would have fared on it. I was losing the weight the right way. Instead of the Biggest Loser Ranch, I leaned on the people who are closest to me. I learned that I liked eating foods that were healthier for me and I looked forward to my workouts in the gym. Going to the gym was fun and I was meeting a bunch of new people. I found out that food does not have to be fried to taste good. I started to enjoy waking up every day.
I was not held back from achieving my goals just because I wasn’t on television. Even without the Biggest Loser, I transformed my life into a healthy and happy one. The Biggest Loser did play a part in my journey. If I didn’t make the decision to apply I would never have been turned down. Being turned down gave me the drive to show them that they were wrong about me. And I did prove them wrong. I didn’t win a prize, but I did win back my life.
