I found this interesting story online today about former Australian Contestants on The Biggest Loser Australia complaining about the lack of support they received from The Biggest Loser once they left the show.

As I read the story, I got the feeling that this is a widespread complaint with former contestants. I thought this was odd because if it was such a big problem, I think you’d certainly hear about it from the former U.S. contestants of The Biggest Loser as well. I haven’t heard a peep out of any former contestant saying the lack of support after they left the show caused them to regain their weight.

Finally, after much waiting and hand wringing, we got to see the Season 4 contestants and the new host in the premier of the Biggest Loser - Season 4.

To me, it looks like this season of The Biggest Loser could shape up to be one of the best!

It wasn’t that long ago that I told you about a study that showed the health benefits of The Mediterranean Diet when used by people suffering from diabetes. Now a new study shows that the Mediterranean diet helps those who suffer from rheumatoid arthritis.

This UK study used 130 women split into two groups. One group was given hands on information about the Mediterannean way of eating, which includes mostly fish, poultry, fruits and vegetables along with olive oil for cooking. They also received cooking instructions along with the other information. The other group was simply given written information.

In a recent head to head study lasting a year, women on the Atkins diet lost more weight than those on 3 other popular diet regimens. They also showed no ill effects from this low carb diet after a year.

The study was performed by Stanford University. The study compared 4 popular diet regimens. 311 obese women took part in the study that lasted for a year.

So why did I title this post The Biggest Looser? Yes, I know it’s misspelled. I was reviewing my logs a while back and I kept noticing people were finding my site by typing in The Biggest Looser or Biggest Looser instead of The Biggest Loser.

I’m sure they meant to type in The Biggest Loser instead of The Biggest Looser. I went to google and typed in Biggest Looser and found some sites that were not…how should I say this…family friendly and had nothing to do with The Biggest Loser Show.
