Introduction

O the nex was a long running, heavily criticised t v show. Basically it showed contestants with obesity competing to see who could lose the most weight. The thing that can have caught my attention was the fact that these people were losing so much weight so quickly. That didn't mesh with what i knew about weight loss and how difficult it is. So kevin decided to do a formal study looking at contestants from one season of the biggest loser. Many of them had gained most or all f the way back. And even six years later, everyone's metabolism had slowed down a lot,. like even more than research would have predicted.
