    All of these are from a sole bias viewpoint, or highlight what we already knew, i.e. eating too much of the same thing is bad. There is no actual scientific fact in these. These are the Daily Mail of the food documentary world.

    Are you joking? There's tons of scientific fact in them? Have you not seen Forks Over Knives?

    Nope. Just Fat Head and part of Supersize me. Supersize me made me cry cuz it was boring and depressing. Fat Head is fun to watch!

    I feel so bad for this girl who got liposuction. What awful parents, no wonder she's gaining it all back- she never was taught how to manage her weight in the first place. I've also heard that when you gain weight again after liposuction, you gain it really awkwardly on your body because all of the fat cells are gone..
    And the effects of diabetes part was horrifying...

    Are you telling me Supersize me is scientifically accurate and eye opening? You didn't know that eating McDs every meal of every day, and eating far more than you should, would be bad for you?
