Regis and Kelly feature staff slim down
Three years ago, seven staffers from the Live with Regis and Kelly show faced off in a fitness and weight loss challenge. Partnering with SELF magazine's exercise and nutrition experts, these challengers lost loads of weight and body fat. Fast forward to now and many have gained back both the pounds and the fat. Some put on a little weight -- one contestant gained one pound -- and some are carrying upwards of 20 extra pounds. So they're back at it -- the same seven, another 12-week challenge, again with SELF magazine, and this time the stakes are higher: Everyone involved wants the results to stick.It's not always people who fail at weight loss, remarked one SELF editor on Tuesday's Regis and Kelly weigh-in show. In fact, 85 percent of those who lose weight gain it back. It's often the diets that fail. Find the right diet, the right exercise, the right commitment and change should be permanent -- right? Only time will tell for this crew.
To chart the progress of the hopeful seven, turn that TV on each morning or simply log on to liveregisandkelly.com for updates -- and for tips you can use at home.

I can't STAND these "challenges" and crash TV weight loss shows because they don't work. Sure, they work during the "15 week challenge!" ...but will it stick? Not really because these people are put on special diets with special workout with special people to monitor them each second. What happens when all this goes away? People just go back to the way they were. It's all about a life long commitment, not some "challenge" to loss 40lbs real quick.
