TLC is to premiere a brand new reality series called 1000-Lb Roomies, and it is already sending ripples among fans of the network’s health and transformation shows. This warm and emotional series is going to describe the life of two best friends and roommates, Jaz and Nesha, as they trade on one of the biggest challenges in their lives – losing weight while reclaiming their health.

Combined, they weigh nearly a ton, and they’ve agreed to make a change not only for themselves, but also for the future and their relatives. Unlike other shows that only concentrate on the numbers, 1000-Lb Roomies claims to show the emotional, personal, and even humorous sides of their adventure. Their compelling friendship and common battles, as well as their desire to live better lives, make this series worth watching.


Who are Jaz and Nesha?

Jaz and Nesha are not only roommates — they’re best friends who look after each other through everything. Combined, they weigh almost 1,000 pounds and are primed to make big changes. Their chemistry, their sense of humour, and the fact that they are so well bonded are what make them immediately lovable.

They are very proud of the “fat hotties with the bodies” title, which proves that confidence is still high in the midst of health problems.


Why are they on their weight loss journey?

For Jaz, love for her darling daughter Nana is the motive in everything. She wants to be part of her growing up. But there is also a grim health warning: According to her doctor, Dr. Sarvenaz Nouri, she might not live unless she undergoes the bariatric surgery. Scared as she is, Jaz is ready to move forward. Nesha is not as confident about the process, but her love for Jaz and the changes she wants to put up with make it easier for her to join the weight loss process.


What can viewers expect?

The show will follow Jaz and Nesha as they attempt a variety of ways of losing weight, some of them traditional, but others more paradoxical, such as the consumption of sea moss, a natural health cure. On the way, they experience emotional, medical, and psychological doubts. Their friendship is their biggest strength, even in this hard journey.

The viewers will see how, in vagaries, their laughter, their love and their honesty keep them focused.


When and where to watch?

1000-Lb Roomies debuts Tuesday, June 10, at 10 p.m. ET/PT on TLC. The show promises a blend of emotional storytelling interspersed with inspirational progress, and a picture of fun, against the backdrop of an extremely obese life.


Why this show matters?

At its core, 1000-Lb Roomies is more than just a weight loss show. It’s about friendship, support, and the real-life struggle of making lasting changes. Jaz and Nesha show that no one has to go through hard times alone and that love and laughter can be powerful tools in the healing process.
