Last night in the US, NBC aired another The Biggest Loser: Where Are They Now? episode, where we checked in on 40 former contestants to see how they are doing with their new healthy lifestyle.

Since the US. show's inception, over 18,200 pounds have been lost by contestants. Most have kept off the weight since leaving the ranch; some have gained back a bit of weight. But one winner has gained back almost all of the weight he lost on the ranch.

Erik Chopin of New York was the third season's Biggest Loser. When he first arrived on the ranch, he weighed 407 pounds and had a starting BMI (Body Mass Index) of 52.3, which is the highest class of morbid obesity, "Obese Class III." At the finale, Erik weighed 193 pounds and had a BMI of 24.8, which is the lowest class of BMI and is categorized as "Normal." He had lost 52.58% of his total weight and took home the title of Biggest Loser.

Erik’s  former trainer, Bob Harper  said  that Erik just needs to find a balance for his daily life.

I know how discouraging it is to read or to know people who are able to lose weight on diets and in weight loss programs and also with gastric band procedures who then regain the weight they loose and I want my blogs to contain positive not depressing messages.  What positive message can I add to the above?
