After missing last week's ""Fit Club,"" Daniel Baldwin decides to show up for this week's weigh in. He's welcomed back by some of his castmates but many others seethe silently at his lack of dedication and loyalty. With the end of ""Fit Club"" fast approaching, Ralphie's team, the Fat Bastards, decides to get a leg up on their competition by heading off to a Utah spa. They hope their stay will help them pull ahead in their weight loss battle. But the plan goes awry when Ralphie misses his flight and Joe G spends the bulk of his time getting pampered. Later, Tae Bo inventor Billy Blanks pays a visit to Fit Club and puts our celebrites through a vigorous work-out. Once again, Joe pulls out to answer phone calls. His teammates, feeling frustrated and resentful, decide to hold an intervention and confront him about his bad attitude In the team tug of war challenge, the teams battle for pride and some fly gym equimpent. And during the weigh ins, one cast member comes up big with an 11 pound los

With Judge and Joe traded to the opposition, friendships collapse when fallout from the team trade leads to a confrontation between Judge and Kim. Ralphie's team serves their punishment for losing the team weigh-in the week before, as our panel of experts checks up on them and spends the night as houseguests. Ant and Kim Coles spend the night spooning; meanwhile Dr. Katz and Joe G spend their night re-enacting a scene from the Odd Couple. Mia takes her fighting with Harvey to a whole new level when she tells him what she really thinks of him, and then storms off the scales. Ralphie makes tremendous strides toward his fitness goals when he runs over a mile for the first time in 15 years. But Ralphie gets completely stumped by his numbers at the weigh in. Judge finally starts seeing big results but the rest of the celebrities are less pleased with their weight loss. And a speed talking challenge tests both teams' knowledge of Dr. Katz's nutrition plan.

Daniel's Team resorts to dirty tricks and sends baskets of chocolates to Kim Coles. At the weigh in, we see if their efforts of sabotage pay off. While Joe Gannascoli undergoes hypnosis in an effort to finally give up smoking after 30 years. But at the weigh in we discover that in this case, stopping smoking comes with a devastating consequence. Tensions increase for Ralphie's Angels as the celebrities grow tired of how the Judge is leading her team. And things get worse when Judge Mablean's team loses the second challenge in a row and is accused of having poor communication skills. At Fit Camp, the celebrities undergo a boxing work out in which Harvey asks the celebrities to imagine the boxing dummy is someone they despise. While Biz Markie chooses George W. Bush as his opponent and Ralphie May pretends the dummy is the cancer that took his father from him, Mia Tyler decides that the boxing dummy represents Harvey.

In this first episode we are introduced to our cast of eight overweight celebrities; Daniel Baldwin, Kim Coles (Living Single), Joe Gannascoli (The Sopranos), Judge Mablean Ephriam (Divorce Court), Biz Markie, Ralphie May (Last Comic Standing), Mia Tyler and Wendy Kauffman (The Snapple Lady.) The celebrities meet our panel of experts: Dr. David Katz, hypnotherapist Marisa Peer and fitness trainer Harvey Walden IV. The panel chooses two team captains and the captains pick teams as we put the celebrities through a grueling workout and learn the back-story of each celebrity and their reasons for coming on the show. The celebrities are weighed in individually, and at the end of the show, both teams weigh in on the giant scales. The scales are then calibrated so we can compare the two teams cumulative weight loss over the course of the show.
