Shaq works with obese kids a la Biggest Loser:cool:

I can't wait to watch.:cool:

Yes. This should be really good.

I'm so excited about this show. It's a great idea. We talk about the obesity of adults, which is important. But we have to get people before they are stuck in their unhealthy lifestyles.

I laughed at the commercial where the boy farted on Shaq when he did a sit-up.

I'm excited about the show as well. I like that Shaq is doing this and it will be incorporated into Florida schools according to something I read about the show.

Last week, I watched Honey We're Killing Our Kids on TLC. Has anyone ever watched? Great show. It's on a smaller scale of Shaq's show -- it takes one family and teaches them healthy eating and alternatives to have an active lifestyle.

I've seen that. I'm passionate about health stuff and it pisses me off to see children who are unhealthy. It pisses me off to see adults that way, too, but children have little autonomy and do what they are taught/told to do.

It was alarming to see what the kids could potentially look like if they continued on their path. The family I saw had like 3 refrigerators.:eek::eek:

I too hate to see obese kids.

I read an article recently that talked about how schools have vending machines galore and unhealthy choices for lunch. While I disagree on the vending machines (At least around this area..), we don't help out by having fundraisers bringing the stuff back in. Even our grade level, plans on having a "candy house" to raise money for kids' field trips and other things we need. We COULD put fruit and granola bars, etc. but would the kids BUY them?

Three refrigerators? Are you serious?

Very. The one I saw last week is not repeating but a new ep comes on this week.

Lawd help the children.

YIKES!!!!!!!! She puts 2 whole sticks of butter on one bag of popcorn?!?!!:eek::eek::eek::eek:

Ok, I turned to watch this real quick, and all I can say is dayum...kids should not be like this...my hat is off to Shaq.

My hat is off too! This is going to be a great program.

Walter? Has bigger boobs than mine.:o:(

Females are supposed to do at least 10 push ups? Did I hear that right?

I can only do 1, and I'm nowhere near overweight.

When i first looked at it, I thought Walter was a girl.
