Supersize vs. Superskinny

BBC's Supersize vs Superskinny is a shocking look into the very different but similar lives of super-sized and super-skinny people. This can be disturbing as it tackles the issue of extreme eating (over and under).  They pair a skinny and an overweight person together for five days and they are to eat each others' normal meals during that time.  It seems that, at least for the first episode, the two volunteers learn a lot about each other and learn to respect one another, which is so refreshing!

Gillian McKeith keeps it light by tackling the ever-expanding bum and is on a No Big Bums! mission.

Then Anna Richardson, a journalist, interviews a former model and finds out to what extent some models go in order to remain skinny.  Then she gives the crazy diet a try and is humorously candid about the ordeal.

Overall, the only episode I have watched [below] has helped me put things into perspective and really evaluate my goals.

Please note that there is nudity, so do not watch this at work. 

Below are parts 1 through 4 of season 1, episode 1.
