I dont know, usually shows like this makes most of the heavy people seem like miserable sobs. they don't focus on folks that already feel good about themselves and decide to lose weightchange eating habits. I wonder if positive attitudes are bad for ratings. it also can help demonize obesity (i'm no doctor, but i'm sure it doesn't need help).
i get little satisfaction from certain reality shows. case in point, that horders show. as a veiwer, each episode is stretched out and instead of bringing to light hoarders, what causes people to hoard, and treatment. instead undue focus is on the squalor that the people live in. I can't help but wonder if this will be the same.
