Ruby is an inside look into the real life of Ruby Gettinger, who has struggled with her weight since she was a child and is now morbidly obese. Ruby has lost and gained hundreds of pounds over the years in her seesaw battle of the bulge. Today, she weighs over 400 pounds...and it’s killing her. Recently diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, Ruby has been told by her doctor that she has to lose the weight if she wants to live. Ruby chronicles what may be her last chance to take off hundreds of pounds in an attempt to save her own life. Style has assembled an expert team to help Ruby do it: a trainer, nutritionist, a therapist, and a physician – whatever, and whoever, it takes.
