Fat Families
Fat Families is a British documentary reality show that was broadcast on Sky1 from 6 January to 30 December 2010. The weight loss expert Steve Miller helps overweight families to improve their lifestyles and eating habits.
In each programme Miller initially spends 24 hours with the family and observes their diet on a typical day. He then spends the rest of the week educating the family about what they can do to lose weight. At the end of the week Miller modifies the family home to keep them motivated. The families are then given a further 9 weeks to lose weight, and Miller gives each person a target weight loss.
Families are also revisited months later in episodes titled "Second Helpings" to see how they have progressed.
