A Season 8 contestant from The Biggest Loser says she “died” while filming the hit weight-loss competition — and she’s opening up about the harrowing ordeal in Netflix ’s new docuseries Fit for TV: The Reality of The Biggest Loser.

Mockery, dangerous weight loss practices and long-term health impacts — “The Biggest Loser” was a TV phenomenon that shaped how Americans view weight.

Michaels was a trainer on “The Biggest Loser” for seasons 1, 2, 4-11, 14, and 15. She often motivated contestants by yelling at them or insulting them. In one clip from “Fit for TV: The Reality of the Biggest Loser,” Michaels pushes a woman to keep exercising even after she vomits on a treadmill.
