I Used To Be Fat

I Used To Be Fat is an MTV documentary series that presents intimate and revealing portraits of several overweight teens during the stressful transition from the end of high school to the beginning of college, as they work with a team of health care specialists, trainers, dieticians, and weight loss experts to shed as many of their extra pounds as possible before they move on to the next phase of their lives. The beginning of college is an tumultuous and thrilling time, as it offers students the chance to re-evaluate the character and reputation they have established (perhaps unintentionally) over the course of their high school career. College offers a fresh start with new people where teens can re-invent themselves and find happiness and success. Each episode of this series introduces viewers to a different overweight teen, who the episode follows from the end of high school to the first days of college. Some of these young students will reach their goals, arriving at college with a healthy, fit body. Others may fail at their weight-loss efforts. I Used To Be Fat is an intriguing series about the choices students make when approaching a chance at a whole new life. MORE
