The Body Institute

In a future when being overweight means additional taxation, an innovative weight-loss clinic comes up with a ground-breaking system.

Trainers have their brain waves downloaded into an overweight clients so that they can lose the weight for them.

Seventeen year-old Morgan Dey jumps at the chance to earn credits to help pay off some family bills. While Reducing for a client, Morgan begins to experience stray memories from her host, causing her to question her own identity and whether she really is the same Morgan now that she's in someone else's body, house, and family. And when the clinic begins to face violent protests from an anti-Reducer group that questions the ethics involved in the Reducer program, Morgan realizes she stands to lose much more than the weight she'd originally signed up for.
