DESCRIPTION:
(from TLC's press release, May 2017) Afterwards at 10/9c, TLC will premiere the first hour of two-part special BIG & LITTLE, following two morbidly obese little people as they embark on a weight loss journey led by fitness guru and fellow little person, Allison Warrell. Viewers will meet Chuck, a 30-year-old overweight little person who wants to get his life back on track. His social life is non-existent, he hasn't worked in years, and everyday tasks like putting on socks are increasingly difficult. Also overweight and little, Ayanna is 24 years old and struggles to keep up in her studies to become a medical technician. Under the supervision of fitness guru and fellow little person Allison Warrell, both Chuck and Ayanna take baseline body mass index measurements and find out that they are considered "morbidly obese," the most severe designation of weight relative to height. After spending some time in their lives and raiding their refrigerators, Allison puts them on a diet and exercise plan. Chuck struggles to become accustomed to exerting himself in the gym and attempts martial arts training as an alternative. Ayanna unburdens to Allison about her deep insecurities stemming from her size and weight, and strengthens her resolve to succeed. In this first part of a two-episode special, will Allison be able to kick-start Chuck and Ayanna's weight loss journey? |
