September 2008

All this has happened very fast. We are three weeks away from the final reveal and weigh in. The pictures and filming will be taken in Oxford, MS at a bed and breakfast. They tried to tie it into the football game and the university, but the presidential debate is happening the week after and the secret service will not allow the film crew to set up.

Rob looks great, I only hope he looks as good on camera and in the magazine as he does in person.
Well the reveal was exciting and Robert lost the most weight. He lost 82 pounds, that’s almost a whole person. Rob looked great in the pictures I took and I think he will look just as good on the TV. George and Henry were wonderful for little kids. Henry ran up and hugged Rob right after he weighed and while everyone was clapping for him. It was as if it was scripted. George was dressed in a blue bubble suit that was his fathers when he was a baby. I was so proud of Rob. Victor asked me a rather embarrassing question regarding Rob’s private anatomy, and I answered as carefully as I can because the camera crew and microphones were recording the entire exchange. Now all we can do is wait for the program.

We got a call saying that they want Rob to go to New York to do promotions for the show. Tanya will also be going (her story is inspirational). It turns out that they will also let me and Tanya’s husband go as well. I’m so excited we leave tomorrow and get back the day of the show. NYC here we come!!!!
