It's never too late to lose weight and get in shape

Do you need some proof?
Helen Phillips, 48, became "The Biggest Loser" Tuesday night, taking home the Season 7 title and the $250,000 prize, stunning those who early on had overlooked and all but dismissed her as being too old to be a threat. She started the game at a hefty, bloated, wild-haired 257 pounds and finished it as a sleekly coiffed 117-lb. with tautly defined deltoids, having lost half a person.
Actually, more than half: She lost a stunning 140 pounds, or 54.47% of her body weight.
"Healthy, hot Helen" -- dubbed so by the media -- said her victory delivers a message to all those fortysomethings out there who have spent a lifetime putting everyone else's needs first and believe that weight loss is unattainable for women of a certain age.
