Anna, I agree about the height thing and I think BL has been remiss in NOT including that in the contestants stats. However, I don't think these people were "short". They only had to lose 35 lb or so to look good.
I read about that Starbuck's dieter! It's almost like having a personal chef. If someone else did the cooking and I didn't have the food in my house - it would be lots easier. I don't know what i weighed up until jr hi. At that time I weighed right around 120 and I had a friend (a few inches taller than me) that weighed 145 and I tho't I'd *die* if I "ever weighed that much"!

I was chubby at 125! Soft and fluffy. I'm 5'4.5". It would be great to be THAT fat again.
