Laura Lee's Sin Bin - The Biggest Loser
from WAPL Mornings with Laura Lee & Cutter · host Laura Lee and Cutter
Back when the Biggest Loser first came out, it seemed like a legit reality show that really wanted to help overweight people get fit... AND pay the person who loses the most $250,000! But a new documentary is coming out exposing the dark underbelly of this show. Everything from caffeine pills to not treating mental health issues that sometimes come along with obesity. Could we get away with having a show like the Biggest Loser today? Probably not. And while health should still remain a top priority in people's lives, for going about it in the wrong way and probably giving these poor people more issues than when they came onto the show, the Biggest Loser should feel shame, shame, shame.
