TV show description:
A reality show in which overweight contestants slim down and compete to win $250,000.

Competitors are housed on a ranch, split into two teams, and are assigned a fitness trainer. Each week, the team that lostes the least amount of weight must vote one of their members out of the competition. In later weeks, contestants compete as individuals. Each episode features a temptation of some kind, a reward challenge, the weigh-in and the elimination vote.

Creator/executive director J.D. Roth has narrated and actresses Caroline Rhea and Alison Sweeney have hosted.
