If you love watching Jillian Michaels' antics on The Biggest Loser, then you will be psyched to know she's getting her own TV show — Losing It With Jillian. The eight-episode series will air in 2010 on NBC. This fitness-obsessed health nut is traveling the country and moving in with desperate families for an entire week, picking out their bad habits, and showing them how to live healthier and happier. Jillian says, "When your health is out of balance everything else suffers — finances, relationships, work, and family dynamics." This tough-love trainer isn't doing it alone. Celebrity chef Curtis Stone will also be offering tips on nutrition, portion sizes, and how to cook with healthy ingredients.
Jillian explained the inspiration for the show like this:
"In a way, it [the show] is a response to the comments we always get on Loser. We always hear, 'It’s so easy to lose weight when you move into the camp and you’re living with trainers.' and 'Would they really be able to lose the weight if there wasn’t money on the line?'"
Well, I guess we'll find out.

I don't think it is the money on the line, so much as the cameras, the motivation of millions watching you and the short time that you have incredible resources for weight loss (chefs, trainers, etc), so I hope people don't take this as a better representation of getting fit in the real world.
4I do look forward to her cleaning out food cupboard after food cupboard. I think it is going to be like Kitchen Nightmares with a lot of swearing and throwing away food to start, and then hugs and tears later...
She is definitely my girl-crush.
5Love her and would kill to work out with her.
This show sounds awesome!
6The more Jillian, the better! Watch out, America!
7oh that is awesome!
8This is a great idea. I am excited for her. Shes awesome. How do I get to be on her show? Any one know let me know I am very interested.
:)
9I wonder if this is going to be anything like You Are What You Eat on BBC
