"Fat Camp" is the fifteenth episode of Season Four, and the 63rd overall episode of South Park. It aired on December 6, 2000.[1]
Cartman is allowed to stay home from school one day, supposedly because he was sick, and suddenly finds himself having an intervention for his weight issues. His mother, family and friends are concerned about his weight (with the exception of Mr. Garrison, who was only present to see the look on Cartman's face) and so he gets sent to a fat camp to lose his weight. When he tries to defend himself with the usual big-boned arguments about how his relatives were heavy and outgrew it, his mother reveals that these were all lies, and he is just fat.
