Some of my friends who are struggling with weight refuse to watch this
show, saying the title alone is insensitive. But I have actually been
watching it for a few years and find it has many good moments of
advice. There is an accent on positive change that I like. The hosts
and trainers are not out to demean people. They want to bring them to
a new level of fitness. Am I just being naive or can I learn something
from these fellow fat-fighters?

I hope to get some discussions on this before the show premieres on
9/11.

much TV is just exploitation of odd people

BUT if it inspires you to change your life style

exercise + high fibre diet

you will be happier
