Weight Loss Work
Rochester suffered from obesity, which she attributed to the death of her birth mother and her estrangement from her adoptive mother. She resolved to lose weight following the birth of her child, and shed over 50 kilograms since giving birth.
Since then, she has been involved in several weight loss projects, most notably hosting four seasons (2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009) The Biggest Loser on Network Ten. She founded a website, "The Healthy Body Club", and authored the books Confessions of a Reformed Dieter, Blubberguts and The Lazy Girl's Guide to Losing Weight and Getting Fit.
Ajay has also published two more titles with new Holland including cookbook "Food You Love" and self help inspirational book 5 minute "diet".
Rochester has joined a Weight Loss Reality Show as a celebrity contestant, Excess Baggage which broadcasts in January thru March 2012. After leaving Biggest Loser she gained some weight, and has admitted she used to starve herself to keep her presenting job.
Rochester is currently co-founder (with newscaster and reality star Jonathan Novack) of anti bullying program and channel Bullying Bites TV set to launch in January 2013.

Famous quotes containing the words weight, loss and/or work:
“The merit of those who fill a space in the world’s history, who are borne forward, as it were, by the weight of thousands whom they lead, shed a perfume less sweet than do the sacrifices of private virtue.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Our loss put six feet under ground
Is measured by the magnolia’s root;
Our gain’s the intellectual sound
Of death’s feet round a weedy tomb.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“The work of adult life is not easy. As in childhood, each step presents not only new tasks of development but requires a letting go of the techniques that worked before. With each passage some magic must be given up, some cherished illusion of safety and comfortably familiar sense of self must be cast off, to allow for the greater expansion of our distinctiveness.”
—Gail Sheehy (20th century)
