I'm watching this new show on ABC where there are 12 people who are overweight (2 are over 400 lbs and 1 is over 500 lbs).

They are starting them off walking the Boston Marathon. Ok, that's not even easy for healthy people to walk 26 miles.

I'm a little leary????
 
Ok, I feel better. They are having them do it on different days. They did 5 miles on their first day. 26 miles for anyone who doesn't train isn't good. I got scared for a second, lol!
 
One of the participants is a DISer and WAS going to be on the upcoming cruise I am on this October.

Was b/c he is going to be a Dad so he and his lovely bride had to cancel their cruise until next year.

BigBen's post. He really didn't say anything about the show other than he would be on it and we should watch.

I missed it last night.
 
I hadn't planned on watching the show but after hearing that there is a DISer on the show I've already set my Media Center to tape it next week. Thanks for the info!

I watched "Fat March" last night. "Michael" is BigBen who posts here on the DISboards. I thought the show was very interesting.
 
I thought it was pretty good. A nice space filler anyway until The Biggest Loser comes back!

I tuned in because there was nothing else on and was pleasantly surprised. I think I will be following this one for a while. How neat that there is a fellow DISer on the show. I tried to find some other posts by BigBen,but of course the search engine was useless. I wonder if he is posting anywhere about this.

He posts occasionally on our cruise meet thread, he is a very funny and nice man.

I was pleasantly surprised by the show too. Its on Mondays in central Illinois.
