This afternoon was very interesting. Today I met Jerry and Estella from Season 7 of the Biggest Loser. They are gorgeous!
First, I had a class with them where they tell their story and get you pumped up. If you haven't seen it, they were the oldest people ever on the show, 63 at the time. They were eliminated the first week so they lost ALL OF THE WEIGHT BY THEMSELVES even though they were on the show.
Jerry weighed 369 pounds and Estella weighed 242.
Jerry, doing it on his own AND being a senior who could barely walk, won the at home competition at 192 losing 48% of his body weight. Estella, as a post menopausal senior, weighed 159, losing 34% of her body weight. They were truly inspirational.
Next, Jerry taught a spin class which he loves and which I hate. Biking hurts your butt so bad. Spinning is my absolute least fav but Jerry and Estelle were very fun, compassionate, and inspirational.
Here is a little blurb on Jerry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOjmSo-gd3o&index=24&list=PLZpNVweKKPUl7doiY14FXz0RYIHuiB3gY
