    Agreed. Every time the commercial comes on, I have to refrain from throwing the remote. :explode:

    It is basically a bunch of girls trying to lose weight so they can get revenge on exes/friends/etc. that called them fat.

    I saw the one with the girl who wanted "revenge" on her mother... That lady made me sick. She could've benefitted from a few parenting classes along the way.

    while whatever motivates you to lose the weight is a good thing, doing it to prove someone wrong or to get back at them is about 1st grade mentality if i have ever seen it. and i laugh CONSTANTLY at fart jokes

    Oh, that's kind of sad. Still letting them control their lives. The best revenge is to move on and be happy.

    this is true and can be extended to almost everything on TV these days.

    it was known as the idiot box once upon a time... and for a good reason.

    The logic behind this show is so wrong... These people were humiliated for their weight, so clearly the only way to really snub the offenders is to give in change to meet their approval. Ugh it just frustrates me beyond belief. Losing weight is no a revenge tactic. I guarantee you each and every one of them will put the weight back on because their motivation is wrong anyway.

    I get that. It shouldn't be the reason. I figured some people who get on the show really DO want to lose the weight and might look for someone to maybe get revenge on. You figure if you apply for the show you get a free trainer and nutritionist and the kinds of resources they may "feel" they "need."


    That being said, I do tend to watch a lot of horrible reality shows.

    So i'm watching my free hd over the air channels the other night and shut it off after i determined there was nothing worth watching on it. I thought, i should break down and get cable. But then i realized there would still be nothing on worth watching and i'd be pissing away $1200 a year. The idea of this show is offensive. Lose weight for you and no one else.

    So I decided I will play devil's advocate here....

    While all the comments about the reasons for losing weight on this show are true, you should never want to do it for any one other than yourself,

    It IS true and a reality that a lot of people lose weight to "get back at" people who they feel have wronged them. Its not necessarily right but it is true.

    I think deep down that mentality is in everyone who is trying to get in shape, somewhere deep down they want to prove some one wrong

    I think I'd rather go out and exercise than watch a show like that.
