The Biggest Loser finale was this week.  The winner, Patrick lost a whopping 181 pounds to claim the title.  Congratulations to all the contestants because no matter whether they nabbed the $250K or not, they won back their lives.

Watching the show season after season has provided me with some great lessons learned!  Here are my top 3.

Lesson #1

When all else fails, get to the gym.  Working out is a supreme way to deal with frustrations, anger, disappointment, anxiety and fear.  Don’t wallow.

Lesson #2

Fill your fridge with good, healthy food.  If you have processed, unhealthy food in your house, odds are you will eat that food.  Having access to only healthy foods will increase your chance of success exponentially!

Lesson #3

You are an island.  Trainers, friends, workout buddies and support groups are great but you must, must, MUST be able to motivate and support yourself.  Find out what inspires and keeps you going in the dark moments to guarantee permanent results.

Now go run!
