I find Biggest Loser quite
demotivating.
The expectations in Biggest Loser are impractically high. Every week you have at least one person moping about how they've 'only' lost 3kg (~6.5 lbs) in a week.
Apparently if you're spirited away to a mansion, insulated from the real world and work out 4 hours a day with the aid of top personal trainers you lose a ton of weight. Great. That helps
me how?
It doesn't help that the focus of the show is increasingly about screwing over the contestants (especially the Australian version - it's on nightly so there's some sort of 'twist' every day of the week) with things like "The team that wins this challenge actually gets to communicate with their families". Weight loss shouldn't be a win:lose proposition. Everyone can win.
