It was about an hour later until all the candidates started coming in.
"You all look excited?"(Mike)
"Yes! I'm ready to finally change my life for the better. I want to look good and I want to feel great!"(Candidate 1)
"Yeah!!"(Candidates)
I had the cameramen record that moment and the next couple minutes. I then put on a solemn face.
"I'm glad that you all are invigorated, but I will tell you now, you will not be able to change yourselves if you don't put in the work and discipline needed."(Mike)
Once I said that they all put on a serious expression.
"Okay we will now split you into teams, each team will be working on a different activity. Team 1 will include; John, Michelle, Anthony, Charles, and Jesse. Team 2 will include, Adam, Sam, Amelia, Oliver, and Harry."(Mike)
Once I said that, they all went into their respective groups.
"Okay team 1 and team 2 will first do introductions after, team 2 will be with the nutritionist who will do check ups and give you advice on what to eat and what not to eat, Team 1 will be doing some light cardio. The first week will be testing week, to see where you are physically, to check your health and limits. The second week is where we will start to push you and really start burning all those unnecessary fats. The third week will be even more intense, while in the fourth week we will start to tone it down, by then you will have an amount of discipline and knowledge, so you will be able to keep up with your new lifestyle and not fall back. (Mike)
As I was explaining the schedule to the candidates, they all had a mix of expressions, when I talked about the first week being light they had a sort of relieved expression, at the second week they had a tense expression, at the mention of third week they looked fearful, but at the fourth week they were happy. From this I could tell that these people were all lazy and hate physical exercise..'Oh well we'll see how they do.'
Once I was done explaining they all went to their respective groups they were assigned to. They were talking to each squad to see what they had planned for the week. While this was happening, the cameras were still rolling, recording every moment.

About half an hour later each team was done meeting up with their groups and then went to go to the introduction part. They stated their names, where they're from, and why they signed up for the show.
I plan on sending a couple cameramen and trainers to each of their homes to record what their daily lifestyle looks like.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After The introductions, we had a crew set up to go with some of the candidates to their homes, so we could get a better Understanding of how their living. Let the audience see their bad habits. If the audience knows what each candidate is like and what kind of habit they have, it will have more of an impact when we show them how they are at the end of the month.
The rest of the candidates that didn't go were made to start with the light cardio and examinations. I haven't given them the pills yet, I plan on doing that the second week, It would be more effective when they are really sweating.
Once the other candidates came back from the 'home check up' we had them start on the light cardio, and let the other candidates go home. We finished up with the rest of the candidates and the cameramen went to go edit and put the film together. I at first wanted to do a group instead of an individual person as the main focus of the episodes, but my producers advised I focus on one person, each episode, so we are actually filming the photage for the next ten episodes in advance.
Our main focus for the first episode is going to be Adam, He is the most hideous of all the candidates, so it would draw the audience attention once they see his change.
Once the editors and cameramen finished editing the first five candidates film, we called it a day and went home.
I only had five more day until I had to leave for the US, so I had to prepare for that. I took Anna and went back to the hotel.
