Has anyone seen the show 'Weighing In' on FoodTV?
I just caught part of it this morning, and found it really interesting to watch. It tracks 3 people over a 3 month period, trying to lose weight. Its not a daily program, apparently coming on 1X per week or so.

I found watching others struggling with some of the same issues I am struggling with, and appreciated their responses encouraging.

1. i've seen it, if thats the one with Juan Carlos, he won the National body
challenge a few years ago, he was very heavy and watching him lose the weight and keep it off has been very motivational for me. I find almost all weight loss shows helpful, i can always relate.

2. yep, that's the one!
I too, need motivation. Seeing someone who has 'been there, done that', always relates better to my situation. The people on the show, who are trying to lose weight, are NOT hollywood types, trying to lose 5 lbs. 2 of the women on the show today were over 200lbs. I will definitely be taping this show's episodes for encouragement! Plus, some of the recipes, which are listed here

look really good....

3. Juan Carlos did not win.
The guy in the rock band won. The show seems interesting but I find Juan Carlos annoying. I wish someone else was hosting.

4. I feel the same way about Juan Carlos...
thankfully, he isn't on very much, so I can concentrate on the actual participants and their results. I watched yesterday's show, and he did have some recipes that looked good though. I don't watch his 1/2 hr program, just because I find him so annoying.

5. Can you tell me what days and time the program
is on? Maybe I can mute the TV when he is on. :D

6. it comes on Tuesdays at 9amCST/10amEST
here is the link to the FoodTV listing for it, so you can see what episodes are coming up:

hope that helps! I saw it again this past Tuesday, and enjoyed it. (even though Juan Carlos was speaking!) He did have some interesting recipes, and the focus was on the policewomen trying to lose weight, NOT Juan Carlos. That helps!
