Weight Loss Shows for Motivation

One of my huge motivations for loosing weight would have to be watching weight loss shows. Most of the time I am quite mean and laugh at how overweight they are. I know that's mean, so I do not recommend anyone else doing this. When I watch these shows, I learn more about weight loss, although I am already an expert.


One of my favourite weight loss shows is "X-Weighted Familes". It is a Canadian weight loss show so I am not sure if it is available in the USA. It tracks a overweight family on there journey to loose weight. Here is the link to watch episodes online.

Another weight loss show I like is "Supersize vs Superskinny". It is a British television that deals with extreme diets. An extremely overweight and underweight swap diets for a week. It gives you motivation by watching overweight people and gives you thinspo as well. Also it talks briefly about Anorexia in each episode. They usually follow a few of them during there journey to recover. I usually just skip that part.

Here is my favourite episode:






There are many more weight loss shows that I watch but these are deffinately my favourite.

Hope this helps

Male, Straight, Anorexic


What is my sexuality? I am STRAIGHT! It is a fact that gay men are three time more likely to delelope anorexia then straight men but this does not mean that every male anorexic is. When someone finds out about my eating disorder, the first thing they assume is that I'm gay. Well I'm not. Here is a nice article talking about male eating disorders and how sexuality relates to them.

Well I do not have that much to say. People automatically assuming I'm gay has got on my nerves. I just want to express that. If you read this, please note that if you are a straight man with an eating disorder, do not worry. You might be in the minority but nothing is wrong with you.

Stay Strong
