Really so far this special has been all I’ve ever wanted from a Doctor Who special. I’ve honestly been saying this for ages that I wanted something like this. Not a silly special with people making dumb jokes but a true appreciation for this really quite amazing television show that changed (and continues to change) so much.

Things I didn’t fail at this weekend
I actually did write all the days so thus far (even if it’s just a little) I’ve been keeping my writing every day vow.
I exercise on Saturday which is really impressive since I didn’t wanna
I didn’t eat out once. Even when faced with eating out I decided to just spend some money at a grocery store instead of eating out
I cleaned up quite a bit
Things I failed at
Didnt put together my five outfits for a week
Didnt write or exercise as much as I wanted to
Ate a whole frikkin thing of rice krispy treats and then ate all the cookies on sunday
Feels like a big +/- thing like…in the end its all the same but it’s not. I’m trying so there’s that
Oh another big thing…I started a true dat budget. yay!

Jillian is really pushing the contestants to dig deep this season.
Actually, you want to abuse fat people because it’s good TV.
The Biggest Loser isn’t “healthy.” It’s a staged horror show.
You brainwash your contestants into thinking they’re “so lucky” to be there.That they should be grateful to be forced to work out while severely injured, and if they complain to working out with bad knees and torn muscles, even if their doctor is saying, ‘she shouldn’t work out,’ you’ll edit footage to make it look like the contestant’s just a ‘lazy fatty who doesn’t want to do what’s best for her.’
You profit on the fat hate and discrimination that already exists in the culture, and you work to perpetuate that. As long as you keep viewers believing that fat people are lazy, broken, and stupid, you can frame yourself as the good guy who’s reforming them away from their ‘bad behaviors.’
You encourage the development of eating disorders, which have the highest mortality rate of any mental disorder.
You put your contestants in mortal danger for ratings, and when they or their doctors try to do what they need to do to protect their LIVES, you edit the footage to make them look like they’re rejecting this grand ‘gift of health’ that you’re offering them.
In 100 years (hopefully sooner) humanity will look back on the Biggest Loser as the barbaric torture-game it is. Your producers should be in jail. No one can sign their bodily autonomy away. All it takes is a few contestants who are willing to speak out, and you’re going to get a huge cultural lashback. You can’t plug that many leaks. And just wait until your trainers and ‘program’ put someone into cardiac arrest. How are you going to spin that? Are you going to blame it on that person — “Oh, we tried to save them, but we were too late, all those years of obesity finally killed them!”
You immoral fucks at NBC — producers and trainers participating in this torture scam — are the subhumans. Not fat people.

And also, aside from the actual contestants, it has real life implications for viewers at home. My mother is a rabid BL fan, and every time it comes on she tries to force me to watch it with her, and tells me how fat I am and “if those people can do it so can you!!!!” which is you know, probably not a nice thing to tell a 14 year old who was severely bullied in primary for being fat, and had been on a diet since she was five at that time, and was doing intense exercise (six days a week, five hours a day) at the time.
It’s a tool that ignorant and uninformed people use as a ‘resource’ to belittle and basically just fuck around with people in their lives - especially people they have power over.
My relationship with my body and food and exercise is severely fucked over due to this show. And to this day I can’t eat without feeling guilty, and I can’t be hungry without feeling like i’m doing the ‘right’ thing and feeling like I am actively losing weight while being so.
Oh NBC Biggest Loser, tumblr is having none of yo shit. This isn’t the place for you. You should probably stick to facebook or maybe pinterest.

Calling All Geek Girls! Apply for the Huffington Post's STEM Mentorship Program:
It’s well-established that women face social pressures that push them away from pursuing science as a life passion. It’s also well-established that women who do stay in science face discrimination all the way up the ladder. Women are 50 percent of the population but hold less than a quarter of STEM jobs.
Young ladies, HuffPo has your back. Check it out:
Dear Geek Girls,
