They have done an extreme weight loss with a woman running the Disneyland half marathon. Now I am sure in the actual full length episode that this lady has been put through lots of training for this run, however in the blog it is just a short clip and to my mind Disney are sending out the wrong impression here.
Everyone of us that has trained to do whatever race we have done weather it be a 5k or a marathon will know that you just can not turn up and run a half marathon you need to train, however that being said there will I am sure be someone who sees that clip on the blog and thinks if she can do that so can I. Let's hope that the marketing managers at Disney can live with themselves if something drastic happens.

To the lady in the episode lots of applause and a huge WELL DONE.
I believe this is the link you are talking about Sleepy http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2 ... r-tonight/
I agree, a lot of the television shows do not show all the hard work and practice and effort that goes on before the big reveal. It might be inspiring, but unfortunately it is also misleading. Most people can process the fact that a lot of hard work had to happen to garner those results, but there are a lot of people that wouldn't give it a second thought.

Image Thanks Sleepy! You gave a very good description so I was able to find it without much problem. I think we taped that show a few nights ago, we just haven't had a chance to watch it yet.
