The Biggest Loser helps contestants to make changes to their lifestyle so that they have a better chance at a happy and healthy life. Some contestants have the added bonus of not just having the pound fall off, but also falling in love. Sam Poueu and Stephanie Anderson became engaged on the reunion show The Biggest Loser, Season 9. They are certainly not the only reality show couple to find love, and not the only Biggest Loser couple to be hit by Cupid’s arrows. Matt Hoover and Suzy Preston were contestants on the 2nd season of The Biggest Loser. They were married on September 19, 2006 in a private wedding ceremony on the island of Jamaican and now have two sons. So we wish the lots of happiness and love.

I have few questions:
It is big news that the media giant, Oprah, is leaving her show in 2011. It is expected that she will be appearing on her new cable television network. OWN (Oprah Winfrey Network) will premiere in January 2011 and is a partnership with the Discovery Communications.
After all the success she has had it is no wonder she want to make a change after over 20 years. As a billionaire, she is financially secure enough make some career moves. There are some average men and women that wish they had a few thousand dollars to make a change in their lives. Oprah is doing what a lot of people wish that they could do; make a career change without have to worry about how the bills are going to be paid.
