This show doesn't contain frightening content, but it does contain dramatic scenes. The series talks about the struggles that gastric bypass patients go through, therefore many episodes contain sad scenes. In many of the episodes either the weight loss surgery patient or the patient's family members cry.
In addition, some of the people on the show argue or become angry, but the show doesn't contain any physical fighting.
Fortunately, most of the episodes have a happy ending, but the beginning of the sow usually has a sad tone.
Some of the gastric bypass patients endured a rough childhood. All of the patients talk about their childhoods, and some of the stories are somewhat uncomfortable (however, I wouldn't call any of the stories frightening).
