I don't know about her doing the therapy, but I think it's an important part of the process......

I agree - it's the only way to really change your way of life. Face your demons!!

I'm not really into any of those reality games with the voting so I thought I would like this show. Maybe they will do a follow-up and show how the families turned things around.

I watched it until she started yelling at the mom during the first exercise session about 15 or 20 minutes into the show. I'm not a fan of Jillian but I tuned in because I liked the premise of the show and was hoping that since it was a one on one type show, she'd be more tolerant and understanding. NOPE! I just. cannot. take. the. yelling. And I don't see how she thinks its the least bit motivating.

Would love to watch a Jillian show, what's it called? I'll see if I can get it on tv shack or quick silver screen, since it won't be shown here in Ireland.

Juli,

They did a 6 week follow-up at the end of last night's episode. Not sure if they will do another one (after some more time has passed) at a later date.

It's called Losing it With Jillian. You can find it on www.nbc.com

I knew they would do that if I went to bed!!

I'll have to replay it online. Thanks!!

Great thanks Juli, I'll check it out.

Thanks. I'm going to record it.

Ok. I like Biggest Loser, but I'm not sure about this new show. Don't like Jillian THAT much, I'm a Bob girl

I guess I'll have to watch it and see if you will have to run tonight...

I remember reading a tweet from Jillian that the episodes ended up taking a different turn in directions then she had originally planned and hoped that we still liked them

I just watched it--it was on too late for me last night!

It was pretty much what I expected--standard Jillian fare. Lots of yelling, being appalled at what they ate, and a LOT of 'counseling.'

I did find it moving... esp. the part about the baby. I was in tears, but I usually am about topics like that.

The one part I thought was really bizarre was how prominently Jillian figured in at the wedding. It was like she was some dear relative, not a fitness personality with whom they spent only five days. I get that they were very significant, life changing days, but still... if I were Grandma or Aunt Sue, I might be a little put out!
