Julie and Jade

It's fireworks in the feeding clinic as 24 stone call centre agent Julie meets superskinny caffeine addict Jade. Jade weighs just five and half stone, and is desperate to regain her pre-pregnancy size for the sake of her young son. While Jade barely eats a thing, Julie, whose lack of confidence is stopping her from following her dream to be a schoolteacher, binges on huge platefuls of home cooked food, from massive cream filled curries to cheesy topped shepherds' pies. Dr Christian pushes the diet swappers to look beyond what's on their plates to explore the psychological triggers that lead to their dangerous diets. But Julie goes into meltdown when she's accused of lying about what she eats by Jade. In 'Postcards from America', a new strand of hard-hitting short films featuring morbidly obese Americans, 37 stone Alaina Morgan from Santa Rosa, California, makes a plea to Julie to lose weight before it's too late. Presenter and serial dieter Anna Richardson is two stones lighter than when she two years ago, but admits that she continues to be obsessed with getting the perfect body. In this film she investigates the very latest diet products and exercise fads. The show also takes a glimpse into the lives of three women and one man in the grip of the mental illness anorexia nervosa, following their progress over the series as they explore the causes of their condition under the guidance of eating disorder specialist Dr Peter Rowan.

In the feeding clinic Louise Knox, queen of convenience food, meets Carly Pitman, who's so busy she never finds the time to eat. Louise weighs 18 stone, nine pounds. She gorges on pizza, burgers, fried chicken and chips, and is worried her weight is hampering her chances of a second child, while also leaving her too tired and unfit to play with the one she's got. Louise receives a shocking video postcard from America, in the form of Laurie who weighs in at a staggering 30 stone, and can't stand up for more than two minutes at a time. Carly, meanwhile, is a tiny seven stone, and consumes a fraction of the vitamins and minerals her body needs. She never finishes a meal and is constantly tired as her body struggles to run on empty. Dr Christian warns Carly that this sort of behaviour, if unchecked, can spiral into a serious eating disorder. The four anorexics are tested to the limit, as they attempt to make and then eat their food nemesis, pizza! And Anna Richardson uncovers a disturbing new procedure in which a patient's own blood is literally sucked out and re-injected into their skin to make it look younger.
