Channel: Mzansi Magic (DStv 161)
TX Time: 20h00
Genre: Reality

Lose It or Lose Me

What would you do if your bae said: "Either the weight goes or I do"?

That is the emotional crossroads at the heart of the reality show Lose It or Lose Me.

The show follows the journeys of three individuals who have been given the toughest ultimatum of their lives: "Get healthy or risk losing your relationship."

Love is on the line and the pressure is real.

Each episode dives into the realities of weight loss - physically, emotionally and psychologically.

But beyond the numbers on the scale, you will witness deep character development, shifting relationship dynamics and the powerful effects of personal transformation.

Will these individuals rise to the challenge or will their love stories crumble under the pressure?

Backing the journey are heavyweights in the wellness game.

Registered dietician Phakamile Nqobile Ngubane is serving tailored meal plans and solid support, while no-nonsense accountability coach Duduetsang Phele brings her experience in skating, yoga, Pilates, dance and Zumba.

Trainers Sibongile Ngoma and Tsepang Mokoena are on hand to push the pace physically.

Most importantly, there's a squad of psychology pros making sure the mental game is on point and strong, because health and transformation is more than skin deep.

Lose It or Lose Me unearths everyday struggles around body image, health and relationships.

In the hot seat of confrontation and receiving ultimatum are:

TikToker Mixon "Tsekeleke" Tholo (40) weighing 195kg,
Digital creator Maletsatsi Otukile (35) weighing 178kg, and
Digital creator Nonhlanhla Shabangu (29) weighing 214kg.
