Australian author and TV presenter Ajay Rochester has penned an emotional blog post in response to comments by Michelle Bridges aired on Monday night’s Australian Story.
The post came in response to Bridges’ assertion on the show that she was yet to meet a morbidly obese person who was happy.
“Michelle Bridges came out on Australian Story last night and claimed she has never met a morbidly obese person who was happy,” Rochester wrote.
Rochester who hosted four seasons of the reality television series The Biggest Loser before she was replaced by former swimmer and television host Hayley Lewis, said the times she had been the most unhappy in her life were when she was thin, not fat.
“I have been happy at 115 kilos having loads of sex and jumping from one boyfriend to another to being miserable and painfully thin, starving to keep my job and make my TV bosses happy and working out at 4am before working an 18 hour day only to go home and have water for dinner.”

The comment that spurned the post came from a segment where Bridges addressed the perception she has an agenda against overweight people.

I'm over AJ and MB. Who cares if your fat and happy. Who cares if your skinny and happy. WHO CARES!!!!!
Side note: She hates MB and has said so on more than one occasion. Is it possible that AJ is having a 'look at that bitch sitting over there eating like she owns the place' moment? You know the one. Where you hate someone and suddenly everything they do and say is offensive? And you take as a personal attack on yourself. We've all been there. Get over it AJ.
So what exactly does Ajay want from Michelle?
