this episode was extremely emotional. it really grabbed my attention and made me look at life differently. watching everyone hear the news about doug was heartbreaking. i don't think anyone could watch that and just not break down. whats also weird is that everyone who watches the show had no idea doug had passed away until the beginning of this season when it said it was dedicated to him in loving memory. until tonight noone knew what day it was that he passed away. i clearly remember what i was doing on january 22nd, not having any idea that any of that had been going on. that breaks my heart too. i hope everyone is doing better since the incident.
i hope that theres another season of work out in the works. i don't know what i'm gonna do when this show is over.
ALL my LOVE for EVERYONE at skysport,

Hey Erika- I think you are great. I meant to write this for the last episode because that one was really like "your episode" but what kind of black sweater are you wearing when you went to the dress fitting with Meghan? I believe you had something similar on on the Sushi Dan episode.

Thanks so much!!
You make the show great!!

Hey - I love Workout, and wanted to let Erika know that she totally motivated me when she told her skylab client that your body is all you have, and if you dont take care of it, what else CAN you do? - Truely inspiring words!
I'd also like to extend my deepest sympathy to all of you in the loss of Doug, he will be missed by all of your viewers.

Not enough Erika this week!

But it was a very moving episode. Jackie visiting her father's gravesite and Doug's passing were both very touching and very sad. I was glad to see Jackie confront some of her demons of her past, and it encouraged me to do the same.
I learned a while ago that Doug passed away, but it was before I really had a chance to see him on the show. Doug was truly a light in this world, and someone who will be deeply missed. I know this b/c I never even met the guy and I feel this way.

Erika, keep up the good work on the show, and thanks for always being a personal motivation to me to be a better steward of the body and health I have been given.

Ericka, you get it........live is about not what you have in life, but who you have in your life and the time you have to spend with the folks you love. I am a cervical cancer survivor and I too, went through a life altering experience that left me KNOWING that the basics in life are way more important then the material items. You are in my prayers and look closely and you will continue to see Dougs influence in your life! Doug may physically be gone, but he is still with you every step of the way!

Hi!
Thank you for not regressing and acting out while Jackie was away.
You are a lady, and would have disappointed many.
Rising above is such a good feeling. Did anything ever happen with the Angelina Jolie look alike photo shoot? My daughter and I who are HUGE fans of the show, are amazed at how much you look like her. You've got my vote for traveling on with it! In God's love, Joanie

Ericka,

I just wanted to let you know like karen did in her post that I took the words you said to your client to heart, your body is all you have, and if you dont take care of it, what else CAN you do ?

That is so true, I work out everyday, I also eat junk everyday, I know doesnt make sense, Could be the reason why i'm not seeing results. Damn those mint Milanos!

Love ya!
Marty

Erica,
I think that you are so sweet and so proffessional on this show. I have watched many times to see who impresses me and you have truly won that honor. You don't get caught up in other peoples mess, and your mature but fun. I am so glad your on this show, and I look forward to reading your blogs and seeing you on the show.
Stay sweet
Joy

I agree that there wasn't enough Erika this last episode. She's so HOT and one of the main reasons I watch the show!!! Other than the lack of Erika it was a great episode. Jackie at the grave was very moving. Doug seemed like an amazing guy and it is extremely said.

Erika, what would you suggest to get started and "get over the hump" of no exercise for years! I have been so busy with work and kids that I have not taken the time to ! As a lesbian, this show has been totally inspiring for me and it seems like getting over the the initial hump to a place where exercise feels good is my largest obstacle! I sure hope the show will be back!! Thanks
