This is definitely NOT a weight loss tv show. This one is ALL about the revenge part of the title. That's not a bad thing mind you, it's the only reason I watched the first episode at all. (Plus it was free) And though the two ladies in this ep DID lose weight, I didn't really think of them as fat. (Just a bit chunky) I didn't see any MEN in the promo, so I'm thinking the upcoming eps will be scorned women getting thinner, then humiliating their ex's to get revenge. Not my cup if tea, but will get viewers.

I liked the free episode. Now lets see if it's still good in the coming episodes. I also like that the women weren't extremely obese. There is a middle ground and they were there. It's tough because you don't want to gain weight but can't lose what ya got. Good show :)

I think it's cool that women get a chance to confront their tormentor after life changing experience.
