“Pontus: ”I almost got a heart attack””
“”the Biggest loser”-profiles Lisen and Pontus pops up in this week’s episode of ”Lyxfällan”. “
“Pontus gets a shock when he finds out how much debt the couple has. “
“– I almost got a heart attack and thought: ”What the hell have we bought for a million?”, he says to Nöjesbladet. “
“In Tuesday’s säsongspremiär of ”Lyxfällan” we meet Norrköpingsparet and tvåbarnsföräldrarna Lisen Saldes, 24, and Pontus Björlund, 28, known from ”the Biggest loser”. “
“the Couple has for a long time been careless with their finances and instead of working, they have put all their time and energy on their Youtube channel. And that mountain of debt has grown. “
“When they risk to be evicted, they get an offer to be in the ”Lyxfällan”. “
“But to participate in the program is not something that is obviously for the pair. “
“– There is just so much guilt and shame in this and we discussed back and forth for about a week. Then we felt that we needed this and that it either was not worse than to be in a tjockisprogram as ”the Biggest loser”, says Pontus. “
“Even if he knew that the couple’s finances were a disaster, so he had no idea how bad it actually was set. “
“When the presenter Magnus Hedberg helps the pair sum up their total debt, and then get the sum 1 000 754 crowns so get Pontus for a shock. “
“– I almost got a heart attack and thought: ”What the hell have we bought for a million?” I was jättechockad for I did not understand what it was for the money, “he says and continues:”
“– My immediate reaction was that I just wanted to give up. Lay me down and die. It felt unattainable. Just the same it was with the weight in the ”Biggest loser”. That man had so much to lose that it was driven from the outset. “
“But, ”Lyxfällan”team got him on other thoughts and managed to turn his focus to breaking down the debt a little bit at a time. “
” When we came under miljonstrecket so I felt like we were on the road. You have to start somewhere. I know it. It is possible if you just allow yourself the fan on it. Whether for liabilities or loss of weight, ” he says. “
“How does it feel now, more than two months after the recording? “
” It still feels a little springy and I feel ”do we really know what we are doing?”. But at the same time, it feels like we have come a very long just on those months. Within five years, we hope that we’ll be completely debt-free. “
“”Lyxfällan” is broadcast every Tuesday 20: 00 on TV3, Viafree and Viaplay.”
