		<description>I also hate counting calories.  I am doing the Weight Watchers thing and tracking every BLT (Bite, Lick, Taste) get old after awhile.  I have been stuck at or around 250 for the last 6 weeks.  I keep on reminding myself that &quot;at least I have lost.. &quot;  so it works both ways.  Watching your Youtube  channel and reading your blog tonight has really inspired me to keep moving forward.</description>

Yes, as Eddie said he will be a more confident healthy Erik - each and every day he&#039;s improving leaps and bounds - we are ALL a work in progress - theres no finish line - and Eddie how many times do I have to remind you its finale not finally! I am going to smack you next time I see you :-)

Thanks Matt for your blog.  I look forward to reading it all week!</description>

		<description>well said!!   FOOD is something you have to deal with on a daily basis, its all about making right choices, EVERY DAY, not once in a while, but every day.   once you do that , the rest will fall into place the way it should.. 
 Count Calories! :)</description>

		<description>I&#039;m currently training Erik Chopin at the LONG ISLAND BOXING GYM and he&#039;s coming along just fine, he&#039;s no different than any one else that has a food addiction. It&#039;s going to be a lifelong battle for Erik as it is for many including myself but I think he&#039;ll get a handle on it and you&#039;ll see a confident healthy Erik Chopin on the BL finally in May.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s like everyone is still looking for the &#039;magic pill&#039;. And right now Biggest Loser is that magic pill for them. So, it&#039;s like, well he&#039;s had the magic pill, how could he gain the weight back? But at the end of the day, there is no magic pill, duh, it&#039;s all choices! Period. And we are all still human.</description>

		<description>I too have not been on BL but inspired by it- I lost almost 45 lbs from February to November of 2008. It was the most weight I had managed to lose my entire adult life. I was still about 30-40 lbs away from my goal. Then several life events happened in a row including my husband in a near fatal motorcycle wreck. I have gained all but maybe 5 lbs and I told myself the same thing- well I didn&#039;t gain it all back. But it sucks to be here again- having to lose the same weight over again and I just can&#039;t get motivated to do what I did before.
I have the tools, the knowledge but just can&#039;t get going again!!</description>

		<description>I am dealing with some of the same issues.  Not from being on a show but just the weight gain.  I am constantly saying &quot;well I am still down xx&quot; I hope Erik, you, myself, and everyone else dealing with the weight gain find our focus.</description>
