Soooo exciting!!! You guys should know by now that I am currently experiencing an intense love affair with The Biggest Loser (vote for Amanda!!!) and that I watched all of Season 7 on iTunes over the course of like two weeks. Kristin wasn’t really one of my favorite contestants personality-wise, but DAMN that chick was inspiring. At the time, she was the largest woman even in Biggest Loser history, and she managed to lose over 100 pounds on the ranch. When I heard she wanted to lose weight so she and her husband could have a baby, I completely broke down, but then again I pretty much always spend the whole show crying. I’m so inspired by those people! I want to be morbidly obese so I can go on an exciting journey of personal self-discovery with Bob and Jillian!!!
I am delighted to report today that Kristin and her husband Nick are now expecting! From Kristin’s blog:
WOW….WOW WOW WOW. I can hardly believe it. We are going to have a baby! Do you know what it is like to want something so bad for so long it almost feels as if it’s never going to happen? Nick and I started dating when I was 15 and he was 16 years old. We have been married for over 5 years. I truly believe with all of my heart that my weight was the one thing that prevented us from starting our family sooner. I also believe that if it were not for the Biggest Loser I would not be experiencing this miracle today.
CONGRATULATIONS to Kristin and her family!!! Just make sure to get that kid on the treadmill and eating Jennie-O turkey as soon as he pops out of the womb.
Isn’t the gestation period for elephants like two years?
I should not have laughed at that, but I did.
BeetLover … perhaps for you the gestation period would be 2 years ha ha ha
So they met when she was 15.. been together 5 years. That makes her 20ish. Hardly time to start moaning about not being able to fall pregnant.
Oh wait, it says married for 5 years. Still, bogan.
5 years is a long time to not be able to conceive. I’m really excited for her!
Maybe they met when she was 15, but I’m guessing he was just introduced to her vagina not long ago.
