    This is not about celebrities, but I thought you might find it interesting.

    British Channel 4 is airing a documentary called “Supersize vs Superskinny“, which follows two girls (one overweight, the other underweight) swapping diets and lifestyle for a week.

    The desired outcome is to make the girls realize they both have a dysfunctional relationship with food, and to prove that eating too much is just as bad as undereating.

    The first volunteers were Sandra, a junk food addict, and Tatiana, a skinny teenager.

    Edit:  “Supersize vs Superskinny” contestant Yasmin Smith has left a comment letting us know the show in which she participated will be aired on January 24 on Channel 4!

      I also participated in this show as a skinny!! The show has not been aired yet but i definately recommend watching it! Its fascinating & really highlights the fact that there are real people in the world who are underweight & desperate to be bigger.
      Its not all about wanting to be a size 0!!

      Keep watching!!!
