:) Did any of you catch the episode last night of Celebrity fit club? Wasn't Jeff Conway something? I don't know about him, what do you think? He acts like he is on some sort of painkillers that he is taking way over the recommended dosage. I like to see celebrities who struggle with their weight and the techniques they are using to take it off. I give them credit for hopping on the scale in front of millions of viewers. I thought Chastity Bono was pretty cool last night when she confronted Jeff Conway about his problems. I can't wait to watch it next week.
 
I saw the first episode, and taped the second (but haven't watched it yet).

Seems like every season, they've got one "celebrity" (more like "has-been" or second-or-third-tier actor/actress) who has a drug problem: the Baldwin guy, Gary what's-his-name (who may not have BEEN taking drugs, but seems to have some mental problems from previous drug and alcohol use).
 
I read that Jeff Conway is kicked out or quits early in the season and is replaced by someone else - I think one of the Nelson twins?

I have watched this for the past two weeks, which I think is the entire season thus far (right?).

Yeah, Jeff was out of control last night and I agree...that was not benedryl! I don't know who he thinks he was fooling but he appeared to be stoned. He also has a huge anger control issue! More than that, he acts like a spoiled child :p

One thing that I was shocked at was where Young MC lost 14 pounds, yet they still gave him a target for next week of 7 pounds. That is a lot of weight for one week, where you have already lost so much in the week prior.

I have never watched a show like this so it is kind of interesting...but I am still waiting for that psychologist gal to do something productive. She really hasn't said all that much yet.
 
I'm watching it. Chastity is cool - I'd want her for a friend in real life, and Jeff is just in it to get on camera, IMO. He cares not if he loses weight or gets sober, so let's all write him off right now. Interesting show, however. I had to tape it 'cause I forgot it was on Sunday night.
Just Do It! :)
 
Sounds interesting although I have never heard of the show. Where have I been? What Channel HB?

I watched it and I'm not proud. I think these people go on this show to try to revitalize their careers (Tempest Bledsoe) or to try to have careers (Chastity Bono) but Jeff Conaway just killed his. It was like he was playing the part of a washed-up has-been when he was shouting "I used to be on TAXI!!! I was in GREASE!!". This is TV hitting the bottom of the barrel. Using this guy's problems and letting him destroy his career for ratings. It was like watching a car wreck. You know you shouldn't be watching, but somehow you can't take your eyes off it.

Next time I need escapism, I'm going back to sudoku!
 
I watch it every new season, I like to watch people lose weight and transform themselves. Even if some of them like to put on a show for TV, and I don't really call some of them celebrities, because to me some of them aren't.

I've been watching it. It's good so far. Jeff Conaway is a piece of work! Yikes! I also thought Chastity Bono helped him calm down. I don't understand why they have that little girl on there though.(I can't think of her name) She weighs 126 or something like that. I know she's only 4'11'' but that's still not big enough to be on a show like that I don't think. :)

Maybe when she signed up for the show, she had a lot more to lose or something.

I believe that's how much weight they lost over a two week time period. (The show airs every week, but they are getting weighed every 14-16 days)
