| Summary |
SBS 2 premieres this emotional documentary about love, loss and last resorts.The 'Girls' have been friends - and morbidly obese - for years. Their bond goes deep and wide, literally and figuratively. They are smart, intuitive, complex, warm, and compelling and speak openly about their inner lives. The Girls met via the Austin chapter of the National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance and partied together among Austin's Big Beautiful Women community. Meanwhile they tried every diet and every pill under the sun. Now they're going through the life-changing process of weight-loss surgery in an effort to lose hundreds of pounds.The experience presents a host of issues and consequence - some they knew they were in for, some they feared, and some they never could have imagined.
