After 12 years, “The Biggest Loser” is back on. But many people are not happy about it. The show is about a group of overweight people in a competition “losing the highest percentage of their body weight” stated USA Today.                                                                                                                  

According to USA Today, “Most of the episodes are devoted to watching the contestants participate in grueling exercise challenges while the trainers berate them, or watching them stand – shirtless so as much of their bodies as possible are on display – on a prop scale.” Although the show is trying to make a connection with health and wanting the contestants to have a healthy lifestyle, “it hasn’t changed their fundamental message: Fat is bad, thin is good.”
