Jillian Michaels slammed Netflix’s documentary Fit for TV: The Reality of The Biggest Loser and alleged that the claims in the film that she approved of giving contestants caffeine pills were lies.
The fitness trainer, 51, took to Instagram on Tuesday, August 19, sharing screenshots of what she said were email exchanges between herself, fellow coach Bob Harper and the show’s medical expert Dr. Robert Huizenga.
“This is one email of many that shows: Dr. Huizenga did approve caffeine pills on many seasons of Biggest Loser,” Michaels captioned the carousel of photos.
She claimed that Harper, 60, “not only knew about the caffeine pills the ‘stackers fat burner’ were actually his suggestion,” and that she wanted to use her “brand instead because they were cleaner and had no more than 200mg of caffeine (equivalent to a strong cup of coffee).”
Michaels further alleged that caffeine was “NEVER banned on the Biggest Loser,” before concluding with: “Wild how some folks still lie like it’s 1985 before texts and email were a thing. And, the last image is my second to last text ever to Bob Harper. Take from it what you will.”
The final picture in the set of photos showed a screenshot of a text message that Michaels claimed she sent to Harper on June 15, 2014, that read, “I really think it’s s**tty of you not to respond to my texts. It’s this kind of thing that always makes me disappointed [in] our relationship.”

Alongside her social media post, Michaels told TMZ she has tapped powerhouse lawyer Bryan Freedman to explore a lawsuit against Netflix, Harper, Huizenga, and producer JD Roth.
The documentary, which premiered on August 15, showed Michaels handing over caffeine pills despite it allegedly being against the rules on set, along with Season 8 winner Danny Cahill admitting that he was given Stackers.
“At some point I was given Stackers, like a caffeine pill, you’re allowed one of these a day, but they were approved by the trainer,” Cahill confessed. “I took it as I decided, ‘Hey, caffeine will probably help me in a workout.’ Sometimes you’re tempted to do things that maybe you shouldn’t do.”
