Finding Motivation at “The Biggest Loser Casting Call” - Ep 55 - Made Fit TV

The word motivation may sound cliche when referring to health and fitness.  But, let’s face it - it’s fact!  People need something to motivate them, to inspire them to turn a negative into a positive.  NBC’s “The Biggest Loser” provides an opportunity for a select group of people to explore their motivation - and take major action!

Detroit, Michigan, home to Season 7 “The Biggest Loser: Couples” Winner Helen Philips, hosted one of the open casting calls for the show’s latest season.   Individuals, relatives, couples, and friends came from near and far to have a shot at being picked.  And what better place to find some potential contestants!  Detroit is also home to Season 6 mother/daughter team Shellay & Amy Cremen.

For this week’s Made Fit TV episode, I join my good friend, and former “Biggest Loser” Season 2 Winner Pete Thomas, for a behind-the-scenes look at open auditions in Macomb, MI.  I chat with him and some of the “loser” hopefuls to find out what motivated them to put themselves out there to have a chance at changing their lives.  Some laughed.  Some cried.  But it’s all in the name of health and fitness for life!
