When The Biggest Loser first hit TV, it made weight loss a national conversation. Millions tuned in to watch contestants drop 10–20 pounds a week. But behind the drama and the “wow” factor, the show got a lot wrong.


In this episode of Drop It, I break down what The Biggest Loser got wrong, what they got right, and most importantly - what we can learn from it to actually lose weight sustainably.


We cover:

✅ Why focusing only on the scale misses the deeper issues of cravings, food noise, and relationship with food

✅ How ignoring the root causes of obesity - like trauma, coping, and emotional patterns - keeps people stuck

✅ Why “my way or the highway” coaching creates victim mentality instead of true ownership

✅ The missed opportunity: helping contestants take responsibility, connect with their WHY, and build a long-term vision for life after the show

✅ What The Biggest Loser did get right - it got people talking about the reality of obesity


The truth is this: the way you lose weight dictates how sustainable your results are. The show made entertainment, but it didn’t make lasting change. This episode will show you how to flip the script and do what they never taught.
