Interview with Alison Sweeney of "The Biggest Loser"

Ravishly.com's Podcast Series

Gerry Strauss of Ravishly.com interviews Alison Sweeney, the longtime fixture on "Days of our Lives", whose soap-opera struggles were nothing compared to her real-life battles with self-esteem, fitness and the superficial standards that come with being in front of the camera. Her healthful journey (and subsequent tell-all book) not only inspired the masses; it also led to her most well-known gig yet: hosting "The Biggest Loser", the reality weight-loss competition that wraps up it's current season with it's huge finale on Thursday, January 29th. Alison speaks about her insane schedule, the thought process that finally enabled her to make positive changes in her life, and whether she ever feels burnt out from watching people cry all day long.
