  • When it comes to NBC’s The Biggest Loser, trainers and coaches push contestants to their limits while glorifying rapid weight loss techniques. This reality series follows individuals as they battle unhealthy lifestyle habits and try their best to transform into a health-conscious mindset. The show seems all rainbows and butterflies on the surface, but behind the scenes, The Biggest Loser is hiding some dark secrets.
    In 2016, a medical study published by the National Institute of Health (NIH) concluded that the methods used by The Biggest Loser are quite controversial. The goals set for each contestant seem pretty unreachable in real life. Here’s the untold truth about The Biggest Loser.

      Nicki Swift what about the fact that majority of people who compete on this show end up gaining all or even more weight than what they started with.

    I always found the product placement on the show to be really obvious.

    I think what really killed the show is that, the more time passed, the more we could see the true results of the show's effect on former contestants.
    The extreme treatment destroyed the contestants' metabolism, causing their bodies to go on "starvation mode" and gain the weight back and more, even with reduced calory intakes.

    • @kevinkevin5973

      I dont think that youre right´.Even if their metabolism slowed down that much they still coudl jsut eat fewer calories. Any normal person can jsut eat less, i have done it multiple times. Every time i notice that im gayinign wait i jsut change my hunger perception, i just change the poitn at which i eat when im hungry. if i weigh to little i eat more. Its that easy. if i needed half the calories which i need now i coudl probably fully dapt in half a year to teh point where i woudlnt even notice anythign and after a year id have lsot all the weight i put on in teh first half. the thing is that you only gain weight if you eat too amyn calories for a long logn time. And all these contestants did that before and teh show cant change their character from ground up. Maybe they ate healthy and developed healthy habits in these few months but that doesnt overweigh the hundreds of months of bad eating habits theyve already developed

      Kevin Kevin That's not how metabolism works. It's not about just eating less, it's about their bodies that were literally extracting every bit of fat they could from food to survive, putting the weight back on.

    Id imagine leaving the showmances till later in the season is because that's not the key focus of the show. Also it makes for a nice storyline if they get things they want later in the series.

    THE REASON BIGGEST LOSER ENDED: Rachel Frederickson. Season after season, we were told that losing that much weight in that short amount of time was unhealthy and impractical to maintain. Yes, we knew it was a "game" show but from episode to episode, we watched everyone's journey to become healthier and happier which made us feel happy for them. But then Rachel Frederickson, a former Olympian and hard-core competitor, shoved it in our faces that being a WINNER trumps HEALTHY every time.

    • @rampage3337
      @rampage3337 6 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      its not about self control its about how they lose the weight. this show dont work you can not just lose a ton of weight super quick it does not work. you have to do it slowly or you will just get fat in 2sec after you stop training. dont know the real reason for it but i think its somthing whit how the body reacts to quick weight loss and suden exercise

    • @TricksterAndAwesome
      @TricksterAndAwesome 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    • @rns2850
      @rns2850 6 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      rampage the sneaky lil bitch It's because of metabolism. Sudden crash dieting decreases metabolism, which means that the body doesn't burn calories as fast.
      When they stop dieting and return to their old eating habits, they gain weight because of their decreased metabolism.

      It's literally always their own fault, except for when someone keeps forcibly stuffing food i their faces.
      If you don't eat enough to become fat, you won't become fat. Anyone knowing anything about basic human fysiology will tell you that much.

    • @hypermonkeybird4945
      @hypermonkeybird4945 6 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      Fat shaming isn't cool but "fat forgiveness" or whatever you want to call it is also terribly wrong. Being overweight is not healthy no matter what and unfortunately will make you undesirable. They need some "tough love" to lose weight. Sure, outside factors could have caused them to want to eat a lot but it was still their mistake.

  • @shell9918

      it's not healthy what they are doing on that show.... most of them gain back all of that weight becaus the way they lose the weight is bad for them and the body can not keep upp. there was a article about this a few months ago.

  • @kidfrombrooklyn66
    @kidfrombrooklyn66 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I notice some of them with-out a doubt especially
    1) Spend extra time holding an time/product.
    2) How they lose that large amount of weight in a short period of time (one time I loss 7 lbs in one week - but I was sick at that time & was not eating normally) I know someone went to the hosptial for excessive weight loss.
    I don't expect to see a 18th season - to me it's all ready CANCELLED

      No, these who kept working out and really changed their diet managed to keep much of the weight off even though they gained some weight back. It is easy to lose weight when you are in such a controlled environment with personal trainers, threathened of being eliminated and motivated by the $$$$ HOwever, when they go back home, they have to be their own motivation.

    • @seola3026
      @seola3026 6 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      They experience such massive weight loss on the show because they are starved, dehydrated severely and doing nothing but working hours upon hours a day. It's not a realistic lifestyle when you will A) have to start eating again to, like, not die, B) start drinking again to, like, not die and C) go back to jobs and families to which you don't have private chefs preparing 150 calorie meals. There isn't even enough time in the day for someone to have a real job and maintain the life they have on the show, where everything is micromanaged for them.
      It's like fighters who cut weight, by starving themselves, and sitting in saunas under trash bags. Sure, they get to a target "weight" for a fight, but they cannot possibly maintain it. And they end up with kidney failure, hormone/endocrine problems, and joint and tendon trauma.
      After a few months of pure starvation for the show, the body begins a new response - conservation mode. This takes lesser to trigger in a healthy weight person, which is why they show doesn't target anyone under a certain weight limit - they can't starve themselves as much, for as long, to get taping in. At the end of the show, within a few months, the body starts to conserve everything in it's path, leading to weight gain - often to MORE than they weighed before the show, because now they have organ damage and aren't processing food correctly.
      EVEN IF THEY FOLLOW A STRICT DIET AND EXERCISE.

    • @seola3026
      @seola3026 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      BTW, this is also why most dietitians/nutritionists go with 2lbs a week for weight loss. Much more than that leads to rapid weight gain. 2lbs a week doesn't send bodies into conservation later, and is the generally considered "natural" limit without triggering other responses in the body.
