I might sound a bit pedantic but if Chris has Binge Eating Disorder then why is he being treated like a regular overeater? It's an incredibly valid and not taken seriously enough disorder. An eating disorder that should be thought of in the same line as both Bulimia and Anorexia Nervosa. They have a whole segment in the show dedicated to eating disorders but for some reason BED is different? The commonalities between Bulimia and Binge Eating Disorder are quite stark, save the compensatory bulimic behaviours, and yet BED is simply disregarded :/
Couldn’t agree more, it’s as though the show’s producers think the only eating disorders are anorexia and bulimia, apparently BED isn’t a valid eating disorder...
Well, to be fair, they did have a segment about "over-eating addiction" where they said it's increasingly being recognized in Britain. You have to remember that this episode was aired in 2012, so we've come a long way since then.
Ditto. There's ALWAYS room for dessert, no matter how full you really are. I rarely eat dessert. But if something looks and tastes really delicious, I don't care how full I am, I can eat it. The thing that baffled me about Chris's comments regarding Nathan being able to eat dessert, despite saying how full he was, is that was coming from the same guy who said he continues eating whether he's full or not; i.e. he eats just to eat. So how he can appear confused at Nathan's "savory full/dessert full" comment was a little bit of a conundrum to me.
Emuna Bee I'm so addicted to caffeine I've had six energy drinks and five strong coffees today and I'll still sleep like a baby as soon as my head hits the pillow. I'm not bragging, I'm actually a little ashamed about it, but the truth is the truth, you know...
GENEVA MCKENZIE I used to have bad issues with my body image and seeing this show is a way to see the negatives of being both overweight and underweight
Same here. I just found it. I'm currently going through chemotherapy so I'm pretty underweight. I'm 5'8" and 108 lbs so it's pretty uncomfortable. This show helps
I've noticed how fast the heavy people eat and how slowly the thin people eat. I have to watch my weight and have found eating slowly does help me feel full and I enjoy my food more. When I use to eat very quickly I would get a second helping because I didn't feel full.
Taking more time to eat allows the food to travel to your stomach and signal your brain that you're full. Try serving your food in a smaller plate. You will also tend to eat less, as most people finish their plates. GL on your journey!
That's why i get angry at fat people. They know they can change, but they still keep eating bullshit and not exercising. They need to get mad, and look at themselves in the mirror. It's all in the brain. You have to want it.
Yeah he was so nice about Chris’s weight when they first met. The skinny’s are usually like to the fat people “he/she is so disgusting, he/she is ginormous” etc
I’m literally SO proud of Chris like it filled my heart and made me so happy to see him drop so much weight and seem so happy with himself like he looked SO much happier and healthier and it made me so happy wow
Ya, considering the cold turkey testament seldom works in the long term, sometimes people will lose/ gain weight, stop drinking or smoking etc but then go back. Ntm other parts of your body might not deal so well with the sudden changes
Absolutely right! Eating disorders not always affect your weight in a visible way and people (even doctors) too often still don't get it. And this is very frustrating and dangerous for those suffering from an ED.

Nick spends a fortune in takeout. A lot of people say that eating healthy is expensive. When I changed my diet I saved a lot of money by just not buying the snack food I used to eat.
I feel like when they say eating healthy is expensive they are talking about normal portions of fast food compared to normal portions of homecooked healthy meals or even bought salads and poke bowls. Fresh food goes bad quicker, and its easier for people to just go to a drive through and get your meal in 2 minutes instead of buying the ingredients, thinking about the food they will prepare actually cooking the food and making a mess and then finally eating. If you compare the little tasks that comes with both actions, you'll see that one of them (healthy version) is more time consuming and most people dont have that much time. Usually the people that have time are more likely to eat healthier, and as they say rich people have more free time. And they can worry about things other than paying the bills and not getting kicked out of the appartment they're renting. So in a way it is harder for normal to poor people to eat healthy on the regular. But, they might be ways around this. You can get food and make it during the weekend and put it in the freezer, you can stock up on broccoli and put them in the oven for 20 minutes after putting spices on them, but like i said it is a choice most people have to make, and for some people the efforts that come with eating healthy are viewed as difficult, especially seeing how easy it is to just use an app and order takeout, go to a drive through and get your meal almost instantly. Its a complete different story for people who overeat. Fast food is easily digested, fast food chains and crisps companies spend millions to create food that makes you feel the bliss point. (Bliss point is the perfect mix of fat, salt and sugar. And it creates the same effect as drugs.) (Oreos create the same effect morphine has on the brain of mices) not only that feeling makes it almost impossible for us to stop eating, it actually makes our brain stop giving us signals when we're full. It encourages us to overreat. After a few minutes of eating fast food you'll feel full and sometimes sick. But 2 or 3 hours later you'll feel just as hungry if not more than you were before eating that fast food meal. Thus making us overreat. And most of the time when we get that hungry and we eat fast food on the daily. We tend to crave it the most because its easy food that breaks down almost instantly in your stomach. And its an enormous source of sugar fat and salt. Our brains are programmed since before the evolution of humans to love fat concentrated, sugar concentrated and salt concentrated foods which was a hard/impossible find to out ancestors. But with the food cues everywhere in our modern society, with the manipulations of this companies and how unhealthy yet delicious the food is, most of us are doomed to gain weight. For people who want to lose weight they need internal motivation. And the efforts they're doing to lose weight/not binge needs to be viewed as worth it to go through to reach their end goal. This is the list of the things that might motivate people: -Spending less food on fast food and snacks. - Feeling comfortable in their bodies Finding nice clothes that fit beautifully -To walk around without getting out of breath - To be healthy and to live a life worth living -to have better skin -to sweat less - to be comfortable in seats -to walk around without getting out of breath - to learn how to manage your time (cooking healthy food is time-consuming) -to feel comfortable => to everyone that is a little overweight to obese: its worth it, all of your hard efforts would be worth it but if you can afford it please talk to nutritionist and dietitian during your weightloss, and a therapist, losing weight is a rollercoster and having support during it will prevent/lessen the chance for you to develop an under eating disorder, and if you're dealing with emotional eating and binging, also talk about that to a therapist, i promise a good mental health professional wont be mean and judge you for that on the contrary; they will help you make healthy habits and built healthy coping mechanisms, and if you cant afford all of these things there is online counceling which is way cheaper and you can find nutrition oriented videos from actual nutritionists. Please make sure your source of information is trust worthy. Have a nice day.
Frustrating seeing these dudes be excessively overweight or overly underweight and no one got severe Acne, like what? EDIT: I'm Jealous, Before anyone attacks me. Yes, I do know they aren't healthy.
I feel that. I was under strong medication because of my acne. I got sick of it, I mean literally ill. So I went to my dermatologist and I tried different diets, nothing really seemed to help. Then we cut out basically everything. No meat, no milk, no eggs, so basically vegan, no sugar as well and no takeaways at all. Well, my acne got a lot better, my dermatologist said it could be because of the hormones in milk and meat that are causing hormonal acne. To be honest, it's hard, I used to drink a lot of milk and it took me months to habituate with it. I still have a little acne though and it's fckn frustrating. I definitely feel your pain. I hope things will work out for us in the future!
@@yatshie8717 you should make it a habit to donate blood every 2 months, so ur body produce new clean blood. some find it effective. also you can have any diet you like as long as you sweat twice everyday by excercising. but cheese, chocolates, and junkfoods really can cause acne so eat it in moderation or after vegetables meal. in addition drink lots of clear liquidto clean you stomach and rectum, becoz stocking feces even a day is bad for ur skin. drinking green tea also helps to clear my skin and have that natural glow.
I never had chips and gravy until I was a teenager, and was staying in Manchester. I enjoyed it even if I thought it was a strange combination to start with.
@@yaboi8383 do n't be stupid, what? she can n't state the obvious. i think you should nt read the comments. if you cannot handle that kind of complimentary observation.
SketchyGarden I have an eating disorder and comments like “you look so much better!” are triggering because my ED brain translates that to “you look fat.” What’s suggested by experts is that instead of giving appearance based compliments like “you’ve gained so much” or “you look so much healthier”, try giving a compliment like “you’ve grown so much as a person” or “you seem so much happier.” I hope this explained it :)
@@yaboi8383 I understand, im recovering from anorexia myself and what i said wan't intended to trigger anyone, so im sorry if it did. It was really meant as a compliment because i understand that recovery is extremely hard
I proper relate to the whole binge eating thing, really happy for both of them, and the skinny guy actually tried! I want them to make a new series of this soo good!
Chris's downfall was triggered by heartbreak, and there was so much of what he said that hit home for me. I hope he's doing better and was able to climb out of that darkness. It's a terrible place to be.
The problem is losing weight isn't hard. Keeping it off isn't hard. These people are using food as a crutch for something much more serious. No one (aside from marathon runners) naturally feels inclined to eat a entire large cheese pizza to satisfy hunger. The obesity epidemic is as much a mental health issue as it is a physical one.
Losing weight can be very hard on certain people cause losing weight isn’t natural think about it if you loss a lot of weight your body would panic and make you crave and then it gets harder
Not quite. The food they are eating is DESIGNED to be highly addictive. It starts in childhood, we feed our children foods with the highly addictive white flour and sugar from breakfast onwards, so we get them hooked, literally. Combine this with the myth that fat causes heart disease and we also make them eat low-fat food, which isn't satisfying. We have to break the addictions and move these people to a LCHF diet. It's very simple, but it certainly isn't easy. Controlling the insulin response is far more important than counting calories. As always, the advice in programs like these leaves a lot to be desired.
@@sportysbusiness that is totally truth, I am an example. I lost/ again/ some weight, that time 50 kg and first time I am able to control my body weight and no more jojo effect. But I changed my lifestyle, i am on low carb diet, but I am never hungry. And I excersise. Frequently.
@@sportysbusiness Not for everyone. You're better off eating plain vegetables with maybe the tiniest bit of olive oil. Bit for a lot of people fat foods makes things worse in feeling full.
Eating and lazing about is like an addiction. You crave it and your body fights and complains if you work out or try to eat healthy. It's easier to give into the cravings. I went from 8.5 stone to 14 stone in a couple of years. I had quit smoking and my cravings turned to food instead without me realising. I've managed to get down to 11.5 stone now and still losing. Also, still haven't had a cigarette. I still crave the food, but enjoy working out now, 6 days a week. I've never felt so strong! I hope my food addiction will finally cave so I can enjoy my fruit and salads as well.
JamesTheMighty Moltres they both need extreme help. I really hope Eugenia really is getting the help. As far as Amberlyn, she needs to actually lose weight and get eating therapy to change her relationship with food. Before she does the surgery she wants. It’ll just backfire and be a waste.
The show deals with people who are not too far gone, so anyone like My 600lb Life or actual anorexia wouldn't go to the clinic, because their pathology is a disease and not just bad habits. They only take people who are still able to change.
@@gypsysoul4683 Therapy isn't going to do much for food addiction either fat or thin. They've NEVER cured any addiction and to say they are is a scam. See the doctor's opinion on Google. It's free. It was about alcohol (not much drugs in the 30s) but the Overeaters Anonymous people use the AA big book verbatim (so the message doesn't get lost)
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 No where did I say anything about being “cured”. Getting help and learning triggers, learning tools to change your relationship with any addiction is a benefit. I am someone with an ED who works in a facility for addicts. There are tools out there for people who want to change/live. The stigma of no cures needs to change. It’s not about cures. It’s about healing everything that’s lead to the behavior. The root. That’s the beginning of changing the behavior. Unless someone is on the verge of death. Then obviously it’s focusing on getting the individual stable. Before moving forward.
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 you need to learn how to research. In the 30s there was morphine, cocaine, opium to name a few. You think the doctors who were giving patients these things to cure their 'hysteria' and the like knew more about addiction than doctors these days?
Horsesh!t !!! I hate comments like this; Asia ? Where ? 日本 中国 ประเทศไทย Russia India? No where is his weight at his age average....In Japan he would be at least 13 kg UNDERWeight...バカ!
I’m addicted to this show. I’m learning a lot. I’m about 20 lbs overweight and as I saw my weight go up, I decided to do something about my diet before I got into trouble and hard work to get back to a good weight.
I don't like that they have "super size" people with eating disorders, but almost never "super skinny" people. It just feeds the stereotype that big people can just stop eating so much, but that's not how eating disorders work. All disorders should be treated by a therapist, no matter what the people weigh
A therapist telling you they can solve food issues is a scam artist. The doctors have KNOWN damn well they can't fix addictions since the 30s. The Doctors Opinion. Google, please. They should be sued for even insinuating they can.
Chris is so food addicted that he can’t believe that anyone could stop eating,so he’s acting like there’s some mystery to be solved because the skinny stopped eating dinner
It really annoys me that these 'health professionals' always say that people have eating disorders because 'they see slim celebrities and see that as success'🙄
kitty3309 Exactly, it’s so much more than that. My mum is always blaming my poor self esteem on ‘models on Instagram’ when it’s actually me being self critical.
It is a pretty old programme tbh we've moved a lot more forward with the health and information now. When this series first came out facebook was new and instagram wasn't a thing ^^;
SketchyGarden While I do have a pretty low opinion of myself it's never been about how I measure up to others. It's more of a flawed coping mechanism and addiction if that makes sense? I seem to cycle between drug abuse, alcohol abuse or starving .
Pikometre I don't know. I saw a psychiatrist about 3 years ago who's first question was 'So which celebrity is it that you want to look like?' 🤔 Lovely man but just no😆
I’ve have issues with not eating enough because I have horrible acid reflux, so I just stopped eating. It’s been hard to get myself to eat more because I’d get so sick, but I’m getting there. This show definitely inspires me to keep going :)
Eugenia Cooney is very ill and very close to death. if you are suggesting you see her as normal then maybe you are quietly and non-directly asking for help?
teamcrumb no I’m just saying I think of Eugenia Cooney whenever I think of anorexia and because she’s so extreme she makes these people not look too skinny I guess I don’t know
I live in Evansville, IN and I’m 5’8” and 125 lbs. I’ve actually been in deaconess hospital for low blood sugars many times. I’m the opposite of most people. I have zero appetite. I wish I could eat.
m4h0n3y95 kinda already does. With my 600 pound life. Americans play the blame game. As well as fighting the process to the extreme and act like babies when they don’t get what they want.

=> to everyone that is a little overweight to obese: its worth it, all of your hard efforts would be worth it but if you can afford it please talk to nutritionist and dietitian during your weightloss, and a therapist, losing weight is a rollercoster and having support during it will prevent/lessen the chance for you to develop an under eating disorder, and if you're dealing with emotional eating and binging, also talk about that to a therapist, i promise a good mental health professional wont be mean and judge you for that on the contrary; they will help you make healthy habits and built healthy coping mechanisms, and if you cant afford all of these things there is online counceling which is way cheaper and you can find nutrition oriented videos from actual nutritionists. Please make sure your source of information is trust worthy. Have a nice day.
@@acaibowlprincess1142 thank you for this! An incredibly important and competent message!
Doctor Christian asking the American what a corn dog is even though he asked in a previous episode 👌
Anon. X its just so they have to explain it out loud to know how ridiculous it is
@@HAIRHOLIC_1 I think it's more for people from eu/uk who have no idea what a corndog is and haven't watched previous shows.
Weeponybjorn not really because a corn dog is basically a battered sausage tbh .
I dodnt know what it was. 😐We don't have them in the UK
@@Sewingbee23 You're not missing much. Nasty, salty, greasy, doughy things.
Frustrating seeing these dudes be excessively overweight or overly underweight and no one got severe Acne, like what?
EDIT: I'm Jealous, Before anyone attacks me. Yes, I do know they aren't healthy.
Saaame I watch what I eat, don’t go overboard on sugar and treat my acne and its still there
Squidoodle genetics for you .
I feel that. I was under strong medication because of my acne. I got sick of it, I mean literally ill. So I went to my dermatologist and I tried different diets, nothing really seemed to help. Then we cut out basically everything. No meat, no milk, no eggs, so basically vegan, no sugar as well and no takeaways at all. Well, my acne got a lot better, my dermatologist said it could be because of the hormones in milk and meat that are causing hormonal acne. To be honest, it's hard, I used to drink a lot of milk and it took me months to habituate with it. I still have a little acne though and it's fckn frustrating. I definitely feel your pain. I hope things will work out for us in the future!
@@yatshie8717 you should make it a habit to donate blood every 2 months, so ur body produce new clean blood. some find it effective. also you can have any diet you like as long as you sweat twice everyday by excercising. but cheese, chocolates, and junkfoods really can cause acne so eat it in moderation or after vegetables meal. in addition drink lots of clear liquidto clean you stomach and rectum, becoz stocking feces even a day is bad for ur skin. drinking green tea also helps to clear my skin and have that natural glow.
@@yatshie8717 I'm so annoyed. I rarely eat meat, sweets, or dairy and only have the occasional scrambled eggs yet I still have acne.
The dude took his meds with pepsi.... smh
Can someone start a petition to get this show back on the air
Bro right
People are too easily offended these days, so I doubt if this show would make a come back, when it really needs to
9:06 "Ge soom chips an' grave' doown ye" is the most British thing I have ever heard.
That's very funny.
I never had chips and gravy until I was a teenager, and was staying in Manchester. I enjoyed it even if I thought it was a strange combination to start with.
I really identified with the american guy when he asked 'do you ever keep eating even tho its too much'.
Every meal bro
Don't do that. Even if you're young, you can still have a stroke or heart attack.
Ive gained 3 rocks
What? 😂
oh good, i have lost like 12 pebbles last month
I've gained 10 boulders
A Pig thicc
Best comment ever
Nathan’s savory full and sweet full is honestly so fucking relatable
I can't believe how much weight Emma has put on! she looks so different :)
Tia May I know you mean well but those kinds of comments are extremely triggering
@@yaboi8383 ...why? She NEEDED to put weight on. She's gained weight in order to be healthy. This is ONLY a compliment.
@@yaboi8383 do n't be stupid, what? she can n't state the obvious. i think you should nt read the comments. if you cannot handle that kind of complimentary observation.
SketchyGarden I have an eating disorder and comments like “you look so much better!” are triggering because my ED brain translates that to “you look fat.” What’s suggested by experts is that instead of giving appearance based compliments like “you’ve gained so much” or “you look so much healthier”, try giving a compliment like “you’ve grown so much as a person” or “you seem so much happier.” I hope this explained it :)
@@yaboi8383 I understand, im recovering from anorexia myself and what i said wan't intended to trigger anyone, so im sorry if it did. It was really meant as a compliment because i understand that recovery is extremely hard
omg nathan’s gran :’)
So cute 😭❤
L Mc ik how cute
I proper relate to the whole binge eating thing, really happy for both of them, and the skinny guy actually tried! I want them to make a new series of this soo good!
32:28 that little smile Lucy does when she is told she's done well by saying something nice about herself is wholesome
There should be a healthy person with them so they can see the healthy portions not just the extremes.
Good idea 👍
Chris's downfall was triggered by heartbreak, and there was so much of what he said that hit home for me. I hope he's doing better and was able to climb out of that darkness. It's a terrible place to be.
💯💯
Seeing Emma again in this episode made me feel better and im really proud of her
what episode is she from
I'm so emotional that there are people all over the world who are facing these problems
Im glad they can bring awareness to the issue and also give tips for people at home struggling
Chris has the handsomest face. Hope everything works out for him.
Joe: weight is causing a ton of physical problems
Also joe: drinks Pepsi with medication
I’m-
Omg ! It's so sweet that Nathan's gran brings him lunch every day !!! :')
emma has such a kind face and voice im so glad shes doing better now
The problem is losing weight isn't hard. Keeping it off isn't hard. These people are using food as a crutch for something much more serious. No one (aside from marathon runners) naturally feels inclined to eat a entire large cheese pizza to satisfy hunger.
The obesity epidemic is as much a mental health issue as it is a physical one.
Losing weight can be very hard on certain people cause losing weight isn’t natural think about it if you loss a lot of weight your body would panic and make you crave and then it gets harder
Not quite. The food they are eating is DESIGNED to be highly addictive. It starts in childhood, we feed our children foods with the highly addictive white flour and sugar from breakfast onwards, so we get them hooked, literally. Combine this with the myth that fat causes heart disease and we also make them eat low-fat food, which isn't satisfying. We have to break the addictions and move these people to a LCHF diet. It's very simple, but it certainly isn't easy. Controlling the insulin response is far more important than counting calories. As always, the advice in programs like these leaves a lot to be desired.
@@sportysbusiness that is totally truth, I am an example. I lost/ again/ some weight, that time 50 kg and first time I am able to control my body weight and no more jojo effect. But I changed my lifestyle, i am on low carb diet, but I am never hungry. And I excersise. Frequently.
Just here to 💖💖 your DATA profile pic!
@@sportysbusiness Not for everyone. You're better off eating plain vegetables with maybe the tiniest bit of olive oil. Bit for a lot of people fat foods makes things worse in feeling full.
Ok but the superskinny doesn't seem that bad; he would fly under people’s “eating disorder” radar.
indeed Margaret !
I dont think he is to skinny, he looks healthy.
he didn't feel good about himself though, and he had unhealthy ideas toward food. Not everyone with a problem looks sickly thin
Nathan looks perfect
@@chill4660 thats great for you but he isn't there to fix his relationship with food so that he can be attractive to you
Wow!! Emma seems so much happier! She has come to life🌞
Emma looks amazing! i didn't even recognize her at first, would have though she was her daughter.
Both supersizers have such a beautiful and sympathetic face, it is just surrounded by all the "too much". Hope, they made a good way!
Eating and lazing about is like an addiction. You crave it and your body fights and complains if you work out or try to eat healthy. It's easier to give into the cravings. I went from 8.5 stone to 14 stone in a couple of years. I had quit smoking and my cravings turned to food instead without me realising. I've managed to get down to 11.5 stone now and still losing. Also, still haven't had a cigarette. I still crave the food, but enjoy working out now, 6 days a week. I've never felt so strong!
I hope my food addiction will finally cave so I can enjoy my fruit and salads as well.
Poor Chris has been hurt bad and is lonely. He's a lovely lad. Both of them are.
They always come back w rly different hairstyles and colours 🤣🤣
You know it’s bad when you start watching stuff like this again..
Emma looks amazing! I had to rewind to make sure it was the same person! She looks so much younger now!
These guys are both so fricken sweet and supportive of each other 😊 so cute!
Ryan Gosling and Jacksepticeye's love child
Chris is such a sweetheart😢 I hope he's doing well
It makes me really happy when i can just see how much confident they gained after their diet, they just look so happy i-
Probably just me but that Nathan dude is cuteee
bring this show back : (
Watch fit to fat to fit
I like Secret Eaters, but I HATED wasting the food. That makes me so mad.
Make one of these about Eugenia Cooney vs Amberlyn Reid
JamesTheMighty Moltres they both need extreme help. I really hope Eugenia really is getting the help. As far as Amberlyn, she needs to actually lose weight and get eating therapy to change her relationship with food. Before she does the surgery she wants. It’ll just backfire and be a waste.
The show deals with people who are not too far gone, so anyone like My 600lb Life or actual anorexia wouldn't go to the clinic, because their pathology is a disease and not just bad habits. They only take people who are still able to change.
@@gypsysoul4683 Therapy isn't going to do much for food addiction either fat or thin. They've NEVER cured any addiction and to say they are is a scam.
See the doctor's opinion on Google. It's free. It was about alcohol (not much drugs in the 30s) but the Overeaters Anonymous people use the AA big book verbatim (so the message doesn't get lost)
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 No where did I say anything about being “cured”. Getting help and learning triggers, learning tools to change your relationship with any addiction is a benefit. I am someone with an ED who works in a facility for addicts. There are tools out there for people who want to change/live. The stigma of no cures needs to change. It’s not about cures. It’s about healing everything that’s lead to the behavior. The root. That’s the beginning of changing the behavior. Unless someone is on the verge of death. Then obviously it’s focusing on getting the individual stable. Before moving forward.
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 you need to learn how to research. In the 30s there was morphine, cocaine, opium to name a few. You think the doctors who were giving patients these things to cure their 'hysteria' and the like knew more about addiction than doctors these days?
36:00 he invented the dab wtf why is nobody crediting him???
Did he really dab and then say, "I'm getting a *dab* on"??????
Nick eats so much pizza his areolas turned into pepperoni
This made me chuckle
Wtf hahahahahhaha
That's just rude.
I have an eating disorder and this show is my comfort show.
Here in Asia, Nathan's size and frame is considered normal for someone his age.
Only downside, a whole lot of isolation and suicide, right?
Asian beauty standards are not healthy and we all know that lol
Horsesh!t !!! I hate comments like this; Asia ? Where ? 日本 中国 ประเทศไทย Russia India? No where is his weight at his age average....In Japan he would be at least 13 kg UNDERWeight...バカ!
But Men there are usually not tall
I’m addicted to this show. I’m learning a lot. I’m about 20 lbs overweight and as I saw my weight go up, I decided to do something about my diet before I got into trouble and hard work to get back to a good weight.
I don't like that they have "super size" people with eating disorders, but almost never "super skinny" people. It just feeds the stereotype that big people can just stop eating so much, but that's not how eating disorders work. All disorders should be treated by a therapist, no matter what the people weigh
A therapist telling you they can solve food issues is a scam artist.
The doctors have KNOWN damn well they can't fix addictions since the 30s. The Doctors Opinion. Google, please.
They should be sued for even insinuating they can.
“What is a corn dog” I just thought that was so precious
I feel super proud of them for their success at the end!
tbh I wouldn't be mad about all the garlic bread
Chris is so food addicted that he can’t believe that anyone could stop eating,so he’s acting like there’s some mystery to be solved because the skinny stopped eating dinner
I was like this watching normal people leave part of their drinks. Lol
I don’t know when this show was made but Evansville is definitely not America’s fattest city anymore
It was probably made in 2012
Now, it's probably Cleveland, Ohio.
I lost 90lbs but kept seeing my body as being overweight. It really hit home when I realized my body didn’t jiggle whenever I drove over a bump lmao.
"i switched to diet soda"..... Takes meds with regular soda
I feel so badly for these people that are dying from unhealthy habits. It’s so sad.
Aww ... Nathan's gran is so lovely. Bless her!
It really annoys me that these 'health professionals' always say that people have eating disorders because 'they see slim celebrities and see that as success'🙄
kitty3309
Exactly, it’s so much more than that. My mum is always blaming my poor self esteem on ‘models on Instagram’ when it’s actually me being self critical.
It is a pretty old programme tbh we've moved a lot more forward with the health and information now. When this series first came out facebook was new and instagram wasn't a thing ^^;
Is it wrong? You might not be thinking about it, but subconsciously that could be what you're comparing yourself to.
SketchyGarden While I do have a pretty low opinion of myself it's never been about how I measure up to others. It's more of a flawed coping mechanism and addiction if that makes sense? I seem to cycle between drug abuse, alcohol abuse or starving .
Pikometre I don't know. I saw a psychiatrist about 3 years ago who's first question was 'So which celebrity is it that you want to look like?' 🤔 Lovely man but just no😆
i agree there’s definitely savory full and dessert full🤷♀️😂
dont tell them ur gay, christian. I've not had good experiences with the people of evansville lolllll
I used to have a summer camp over there. I'm trans and oh boyyy did it get interesting
Maybe that's because "Hello, here are my sexual preferences" is a bizarre way to start a conversation with someone lol
@@sitcomchristian6886 or maybe it’s just homophobia 😲
I’m literally crying rn, Chris was so cute but omg he eats so much it’s so sad! Thx period xo
definitely agree about savory full and dessert full........ lol i'm always the person to ask for the dessert menu
I’ve have issues with not eating enough because I have horrible acid reflux, so I just stopped eating. It’s been hard to get myself to eat more because I’d get so sick, but I’m getting there. This show definitely inspires me to keep going :)
Anyone here an average size person watching this and being thankful for the body they have or is it just me lol
I'm still working on getting back to average. At least now I'm overweight, rather then obese
His grandma is so sweet 🥺
nobody:
superskinnies: iNcOnVeNiEnCe
OMG! I hadn't seen Emma & she looks fabulous & healthy! Like a new person! I'm so happy for her!
15:41 Ok I know they're British but "What's a corn dog?" broke my existence.
But like what is it
@@hannahgorman2244 It's really just a sausage in batter
Both the lads were super nice in this episode tho which helps
ok but both Chris and Nathan are low-key cute 😳
So proud of these two one of the best and most supportive episodes congratulations gents
burger and rice?????
I love Dr. Christian; I wish he were my general practitioner. :)
Idk why but I feel like a lot of the superskinnys aren’t too extreme
Is that true or just toxic thinking
In their appearance or in their behavior?
Appearance for sure .......maybe it’s just because I’m used to Eugenia cooney being the face of anorexia
Eugenia Cooney is very ill and very close to death. if you are suggesting you see her as normal then maybe you are quietly and non-directly asking for help?
teamcrumb no I’m just saying I think of Eugenia Cooney whenever I think of anorexia and because she’s so extreme she makes these people not look too skinny I guess I don’t know
They’re definitely too skinny they’re just not as extreme as the obese people in this video
I live in Evansville, IN and I’m 5’8” and 125 lbs. I’ve actually been in deaconess hospital for low blood sugars many times. I’m the opposite of most people. I have zero appetite. I wish I could eat.
I don't get that. Italians are all great cooks. You never see anyone underweight :)
Obviously Dr.Christian does not know how to age.😀❤️
I’m bad about not eating..I feed my son but not myself. Thank you for this show I realize my issue with food
Give yourself permission to eat when you feed him. Don't rush.
This show is legendary needs to be on TLC level make america woke
m4h0n3y95 kinda already does. With my 600 pound life. Americans play the blame game. As well as fighting the process to the extreme and act like babies when they don’t get what they want.
What does woke mean? Lol
MICHELLE 77va Woke is just being used as a slang word kinda. But just as the word means, awake, aware, woke. Hope that helps.
Cant find any superskinny
in amurica
@@Tjieena Look in rich neighborhoods. They're everywhere. Go to the health club at 5 am. There they are.
Hearing Dr. Christian say “what’s a corn dog” is therapeutic
That makes me feel physically sick.
Kirsten Evans same
Where's the episode where Nathan goes on a date with Josh from episode 4?
Have you found out?
TH-cam wonders why everybody uses Adblock... This channel puts 24 ads on a 45 minute video
Drag to the end and replay. Why would you PAY for that?
Nathan was so real for the savory full and desert full 😂
