Now onto other things.  I’m really hoping that all of you reading this are really beginning to realize that what I’m ultimately trying to get you to do is change the behavior in your life to then actually increase the quality of your life. People are always asking me for tips on weight loss and quick fixes and that is not what I’m about and that is not what I have ever wanted to focus on with any of the people that I have worked with.  It is all about changing things in your life that aren’t working and being the best “YOU” that you can possibly be.  Gone are the days of just focusing on one piece of the “pie” of your life.  I want you to look at all of it so you make real and lasting changes and here is a great place to start. That is why I love our website here because it gives people a voice.  A chance to be heard and to also find other people that are trying to accomplish exactly what you are trying to do.  Use this social network to get you started, to get you motivated, and above all to inspire you to change your life.  You are not alone. I’m here to help you every single step of the way.  I’m not going anywhere. Mytrainerbob is here for you.

Now let’s talk about Shay….OMG!!!  Did you just fall in love with that girl last night!!  Shay is the biggest person we have ever had on the show, 476lbs and the girl has been beaten down by life but she wants a second chance and let me tell you, Jillian and I are going to give it to her.  I just thought Shay showed so much honesty and vulnerability and the WANT to change and that is an excellent start.  Now let’s talk about Abby.  A woman that had the unthinkable happen and now she is figuring out a new way to live because, just like she said on the scale, she is no longer afraid of death.  Abby is an inspiration to us all because she represents the will to live.  I love her so much and I think so many of us can relate to just taking one day at a time, one hour at a time.  I think that you must look at every day as a blessing and a mission to find purpose.  Some days might be better than others but you find that will to live every day and you get out there and FIND YOUR PLACE in this world.  Thank God for Abby.  I will talk more about other contestants next week.  

So now lets talk about all that cursing…..  Watching it last night, I realized that it needs to be dialed back and I apologize.  I know that our show has become a family show and at times it sounded inappropriate.  All I can say is that we live in our own little world out there and we spend HOURS and HOURS on that campus and sometimes it just gets dirty.  We lose all concept of the camera crews that are all around us and we just get into a zone.  I’m really not trying to make any excuses I’m just trying to show you a different perspective.  It is like a locker room in that gym and we all get raw and exposed so that is basically where I’m coming from regarding this matter.  I hope that you never lose sight of the compassion, respect and love I have for the contestants, this season or any other season.  I welcome any and all contestants from the show to comment on our life out there to give insight to the “outside world”.  Anyway, I think it was a great and CRAZY start to what promises to be a very exciting season so please….stay tuned!!!
