You shouldn't be so obsessed with tv shows. And yeah, you're probably not overweight enough for them. The media tends to like extremes when it comes to reality shows (it is the old carney freak show mentality).

So instead, just focus on being the best person you can and get as fit as time and circumstances will allow. The simpler you make life the better it will be.

The biggest loser looks for people who are way of their weight chart meaning obese/morbidly obese. This is what makes the show, If you noticed many of the cast members or not slightly overweight.

I can see why you'd want to be on that show. It's one of the few responsible ones out there.

However, I think you need to give up.

First off, you aren't morbidly obsese. To make for good drama, the stakes have to be high. That's part of why the show casts people whose weight is endangering their lives and health.

Secondly, you have to be an American citizen. They aren't going to take the risk of placing a someone who is not an American on that show -- not only would there be huge legal issues, but it would be a lawsuit waiting to happen!

There are camps and teams you can get together with to work on your diet and exercise with to keep you motivated. You should look for a group in area that is like that.

The Biggest Loser is a great show, and I do understand why you would want to get on because you can lose a lot of weight going on there. But, you say you're slightly overweight, and people who are extremely overweight are usually the ones who go on the show. If you really want to lose weight, then exercise at home, and if the show is on, you could watch what the trainers make the contestants do, and you could take some of their ideas, and do what they do. Also, there is a Biggest Loser game that is on X-Box 360 and the Wii. Talk to your parents and see if you could get the game, that is, if you have a game console. I hope I helped.
