Did you love last’s night’s premiere??? We did. So glad to have Bob AND Jillian together again!!! We just couldn’t help sharing another fun story from the beginning of our Biggest Loser journey. This one involves that loveable Arthur Wornum. He and his Dad Jesse were a hoot and we loved going on the journey with them by our side.
