Super Slim Me

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Super Slim Me is a TV documentary presented by Dawn Porter. It was broadcast in the U.K. by BBC Three on 25 February 2007. Dawn was on a mission to see what it takes to shrink her UK size 12 figure to the much-touted super skinny Hollywood zero.

Surviving on a diet of just 500 calories a day she hunts down the stylists, designers and agencies who are responsible for making skinniness not only appear possible, but the ultimate goal for any dedicated follower of fashion.[1][2]

The title is based on the American FIlm Super Size Me where the author consumes McDonalds daily for a month.
