NBC flew me up to NYC to do a short 5-minute segment with Kathie Lee and Hoda.

They'll be talking to me about my 120-pound weight loss journey over the past two years, which included IMKY in August.

Should be fun.

If you miss it, head on over to BenDoesLife.com for a link when it gets put up.

Cool for being on TV, too bad you have to put up with Kathie Lee to do it.

I didn't know she was back on the TV until I saw her spot while at PT a couple of weeks ago and all I could think was "is she drunk or something?" 

 

cool beans on being on the telly!

Congratulations! Make sure you have a plan to monetize this exposure.
I'm sure you do. But just in case. (book, workshops, etc.)
The shirts are a good start.

Five minutes is a long freakin' time on live TV. Way to go!

Scott, there's an "l", not a "w" in front of that word.

dude seriously!

1. congratulations, you glimpsed a dream and you seized the day, you chose LIFE! 
2. you are an awesome inspiration to people who are wallowing in "I can't".  You now have an awesome opportunity and an awesome responsibility to tell them "I did it, you can too!"
3. seriously, capitalize on this.  Don't be shy, sell out.  This is your 15 seconds of fame!  At least sell T-shirts from your blog.  You are real, and people respect that.  If you don't want to do it "for the money", then do it "to help people".  You won't regret trying.

Wow... great work all around Ben.  Congrats on being featured on TV.  I've passed your blog address onto a friend who is struggling with obesity (but has been working hard at dieting and exercising for a few months now!).

Keep up the great work!
