Buff Brides Update...

Thank you so much for all your kind words. I was actually mortified when I saw the show. I don't believe it really portrayed my character properly.
There were hours and hours of far better footage that wasn't used.
I think they focused too much on an eating disorder I had years ago. Not to mention, the day of the 'breakdown' was just a really bad day overall.
All in all, it was a great experience and I don't regret it for a minute.

It was on Discovery Health. I think only certain areas of LI get the channel or if you have satellite you can get it too.

I did not get a chance to watch it either. That's the problem with the reality shows. 'It's never 100% reality'. FH & I learned that when we audutioned for race to the alter. TV needs drama

I watched it- I thought you were terrific! You have such a great sense of humor and your relationship with your sister reminded me of mine. I didn't think that they focused too much on your eating disorder- I agreed with what you said about once you have an eating disorder that you never have the same relationship with food as a normal person, just like an alcoholic (forgive my paraphrasing).

Anyway, just wanted to let you know that I liked it!

I'm sorry I missed it...

And, although I'm addicted to the reality shows...they tend to edit and cut so much that the show doesn't wind up to be much of the REALity it should be...
