If you grew up in the 2000s, chances are you remember The Biggest Loser: dramatic weigh-ins, trainers screaming, contestants collapsing on treadmills, and the promise that extreme weight loss meant health and redemption.

Now, Netflix’s new documentary Fit for TV: The Reality of The Biggest Loser pulls back the curtain — and it’s even more harmful than we realised.

Here’s what we unpack today:

✨ The shocking behind-the-scenes realities revealed in Fit for TV — from starvation-level diets to life-threatening health risks.
✨ The devastating aftermath: why so many contestants regained weight, and why it was never about willpower.
✨ The generational impact on millennial viewers (like me and maybe you too) who absorbed its harmful messages alongside our mums, friends, and peers.
✨ The anti-diet reframe: why exercise isn’t punishment, food isn’t the enemy, and your worth was never meant to be weighed on a scale.
