A disgusting show that should be a wake up call
8 August 2021
When Michelle Obama wanted kids to eat healthier, this documentary should have been shown alongside with her platform. This show is completely disgusting and gluttonous. I have had problems with my weight throughout my life, but I do one thing these people do not. I exercise five days a week, and I try to follow a proper diet. These people eat like pigs, and they get upset when people make fun of them. Being like them is not a disease, it is a lifestyle choice. I am against, and always will be, gastric bypass surgery. It is a waste of tax dollars since these people do not work, and they think it is the only way for them to better their lifestyle. The problem is, when they get it, they still eat junk.

America is a deeply divided nation in every way; politically and socially. The majority of the country is overweight, and does not get enough exercise. School kids in America are fed trash rather than a proper diet filled with fruits and vegetables. This show, that people watch for entertainment, is not for that purpose. It is a satire of sorts. You question whether you feel bad for these people. I watched it with my sister once, and she said, these people did it to themselves. It is their fault. You show them salads they give you a disgusted look. I saw one episode where for breakfast they showed this person a yogurt with granola, a croissant, and coffee with steamed nonfat milk and sugared substitute for breakfast and she called it disgusting. To me, that is an ideal breakfast. That is at least what my mother would serve us for breakfast before school when I was a youngster.

Americans need to watch this.
