X-Weighted T.V. Show - Watch other people's journeys to taking off the pounds
I watch this t.v. show, especially late at night while working in my home office and blogging :-). It's called X-Weighted. It follows someone on a 6-month journey of weightloss. It shows their trials, tribulations, successes, failures, and struggle.
I like the host and personal trainer, Paul Plakas. He is tough and doesn't take any excuses. When I hear different people's excuses, it makes me think of mine.... in the past 6 weeks my three kids have had chicken pox, there are nights the baby doesn't sleep well, there are work deadlines, there are people coming to visit, there are weekends we go away, etc... all these excuses for not moving more !
"X-Weighted is a series of one-hour documentaries about adult Canadians each fighting their individual war on fat. The participants carry from 40 to 150 extra pounds each, they run, climb, pump, bike and dance their way to healthier weights, during periods of four to six months.
X-Weighted records all the plans and pitfalls, gripes and grit that go hand-in-hand with achieving this often-exasperating goal. The emphasis is on the underlying causes and ongoing triggers for excess weight as these frank but feisty people grapple with their personal flaws, emotional baggage and suppressed conflicts."
