Hi Jillian, my name is Nancy I am from Arizona, and my story started right around the time your show started, big fan by the way. I had been heavy my whole life til a few years ago, I was going to go in for gastic bypass surgery when my sister thankfully talked me out of it and made me realalize you just dont know what it will do to your body a month or 20 yrs down the road. I decided to stop trying diets and just use portion control, and exercise every day, I lost 80 pounds and have kept it off for 3 yrs, and walk religiously every day for 1hr to 1 1/2hrs. I finally felt like I had my life under control until I came to the cruel realazation I had not , see one of the things that helped tremendously is that I am a smoker , and with the weight loss came more smoking, they were a big crush until recently I discovered I have a lung condition that causes my lung to partially clapse , so smoking is no longer even an option I have to give it up but how do I do that and not gain everything back I have worked so hard for, its almost as though Id rather die from smoking then be big again, there must be something I can do, if you have any suggestions please let me know thanks
Hello Jillian and Bob,
Hope you or someone at the network reads this, i heard a story today that broke my heart. This just happend yesterday in Tonopah Arizona at West Valley High. Her name is Marie Gray she is 15 and an honor student who just happens to be more than 100 lbs overweight. Ok the story is yearbooks were distributed yesterday and underneath Marie's name it said fat ass! The teacher who was supposed to have proof read the book before it went out has been put on administrative leave. The poor girl said she didnt' want to go back to school and all she wanted to do is sit in her room and cry. If you see this story in the news im sure you will be touched, she seems to have lost all self esteem. I think you should pick her to be on Biggest Looser, she would be a fan favorite!!!!
Go out and find this girl Jillian and Bob!!!!!Go get her
