Ever thought of participating in a live show? I mean, the rules are simple: "whomever loses the most...wins." Should a signed contract motivate you even more? I've watched some episodes of show like this. It seems pretty hard, both mentally and physically. Is it a cruel thing to put 12 fat people to lose weight for money?

Maybe they help some people, but nothing on this earth would induce me to go on a show like that. I am not a very outgoing sort of person and for me it would be like public humiliation
Unbelievable

No, I've never participated in such a show and I don't think would ever want to do this. But for th money, nobody would want to humiliate themselves in public for the fun of others. I don't think it's a cruel thing to put fat people to lose weight for money, television would do almost anything for audience, but seeng how degrading it is for the contestants, I'd have to say that one's got to have pretty low self esteem to go on these shows.

I think the one benefit of going on a show like that is that you will definitely lose a lot of weight. Other than that though, I wouldn't think of going on reality shows in general. They bring out the bad side in everyone becaues everyone's under so much stress.

I've never participated in that kind of show , but I think it`s good for those who decide to go cause they all are in a competion and they want to be winners and have a great condition after the show! I like those shows are very good .

I never did and i don't think i ever will :D
I am a little bit shy, and i don't think i could show myself in public with all my weight..
Besides, i prefer to do this my way, i don't need any competition. It's just me and my weight. besides, i think i would feel very bad being humiliated.
Maybe for some peole this is a good thing, maybe it encourages them to do more, but they're no good for me :D

No no and again no. I know about my problem, I am working on it, but I just couldn't put myself in front of all the people like this. I am a very private person and this won't happen, that's for sure. I never understood how someone would do this

I hate these shows. I do watch some of them to see how others are coping with this problem, but there is nothing in this world that would make me appear in such a show. I just hate the idea of being exposed like this.
