TLC to Debut The Real Skinny Special

For the shows that reward contestants big loss weight, TLC is now giving us a show called The Real Skinny that documents the people who have lost weight and now need to fix the excess fat that they’ve acquired from shedding the pounds quickly. Excess fat can contribute to health problems, including not being able to complete simple physical tasks.

The new show will document the emotional journey of each person from their pre surgery figure to post. The patients Sarah and Chris will have to be “cut in half and put back together” in a circumference body lift to get rid of the excess fat.

However, the surgeries aren’t proven to be a perfect ending. A lot of surgeries can lead in death or infections, making this a dangerous but interesting topic to follow from beginning to end.

The Real Skinny premieres on TLC on Monday, March 12, at 10 PM.
