A Series of Digressions

It was revealed that one of the female contestants on The Biggest Loser this season is supposed to eat 1,200 calories a day and burn 6,000. That is crazypants. One of the male contestants had an 8,000 calorie burn goal. Granted, especially at the beginning of the season the contestants must burn calories at a very high rate given their low fitness levels and the sheer size of their bodies, but doing intense workouts all day with so little food has to be incredibly challenging.
