I'm watching it now. It's pretty good.

Eat right and exercise. Only thing that ever works. But people still want a 17 day diet. Sad...

I stumbled on it also.

Just watched the segment on the lap band and it made me SO sick! I wanted to punch those "doctors" in the throat. Those people lost their lives because of THEIR negligence, but want to blame it on "other" medical issues.

Yes, people have reasons for surgery, I definitely don't condone it because it comes down to diet and exercise, period. But wow... makes you just sick.

I am watching it also. The only thing that really works is to watch what you eat and exercise, at least that is how it is for me

Just now caught it so I missed most of it. I'll try to watch it in full later.

I'm watching it too. Some of the stuff on it is appalling. So much so that it makes me sick. :explode:

The "feeding tube" segment made me ill. I just don't see how this is a healthy long term solution!

Yep. Look at all those fad diets they exposed as frauds and sometimes dangerous scams. The same ones people post about here daily.

But everytime you try to say "That's not a sustainable plan. You should just eat well and exercise." you get called a hater and told if you don't have something nice to say don't say anything at all.

Sometimes I get cynical and think the people only looking for a quick fix deserve to have their money taken from them. But no one deserves to die. That's for sure.

It's incredibly frustrating. Sadly, they are adults, and in the end, it's their choice.

I only caught the last 5 minutes, but I would like to go to that Swiss hotel and be pampered and still lose weight...Chrono dieting....hmmmm

I watched it also, great special! The feeding tube lady who allowed her daughter to call her fat when she went from a size 2 to a size 8 absolutely disgusted me!! How is teaching your daughter to ridicule and shame an average weight acceptable?! Sadly, I can think of many other diets that could be included on that show.

Take home point; eat healthy, exercise, and above all enjoy life!!
