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:
“But I saw the little-Ant men as they ran
Carrying the world’s weight of the world’s filth
And the filth in the heart of Man—
Compressed till those lusts and greeds had a greater heat
than that of the Sun.”
—Dame Edith Sitwell (1887–1964)
“For sleeping, like death,
Must be won without pride,
With a nod from nature,
With a lack of strain,
And a loss of stature.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“The common experience is, that the man fits himself as well as he can to the customary details of that work or trade he falls into, and tends it as a dog turns a spit. Then he is part of the machine he moves; the man is lost.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
