I challenge NBC to provide statistics on EVERY one of The Biggest Loser Contestants.
I want to know:
How many contestants ever reached their Final Goal weight?
How many contestants have been able to maintain within 3% their final goal weight?
How many contestants weigh more than the weight they were at when they got voted off the show?
How many contestants weigh more than they weighed before starting the show?
I don't want to see just a few success stories. I want real statistics.
The diet industry is huge money. This show, if it wanted to, could contribute to the science of weight loss, if it wanted to. It could for example provide free nutritionists and trainers to all of its contestants for 5 years after the show they were on.
I have watched shows where 1,000 lb people were extracted from their homes with fork lifts after the walls were cut down because they could not fit through the door. Some people have genetic issues that make it very difficult to maintain a normal body weight.
So, I want to know the facts about the success/failure of all the contestants,long term, not just a few handpicked stories.
