To demand that every time one says one is on a diet, this MUST be met with disbelief ?

[BearlyThere]

Not "oh right"

I have absolute proof that diets do not work.

WW, LL & SW have not gone out of business.

True MrsDV. You have to change your diet permanently. There is not use going on LL for 4 months and then celebrating your weightloss with a slap up meal, and putting it all back on.

I'm hungry.

Response to a dieter "weeeeelll, you could do with less chins."

Exactly Getorf

They are a huge profit making scam feeding off the bleached bones of women's insecurities and are supported by the bloated anti woman media machine.

I agree, that dozy advert for ww with Alesha Dixon in it makes me spit.

And the whole terminology of slimming world with their 'syns'. urgh.

And special K lady biting her lip in worry when looking at a cake.

People in my new office keep asking me if I'm on a diet.

Apparently I am the only woman in the office who isn't.

I am also the only woman in the office likely to punch the next person who asks that.

And it is possible to have salad for lunch cos it's nice, then have a Kit Kat later with my tea, without collapsing under the weight of contradiction.

I knew I was fat when I went into a local pub to enquire about prices for holding a function there - as I approached the bar and without muttering a word the barman said "weight watchers is up stairs".
Not a good feeling!

lolol at daintynuts.

Sorry - but that is very funny.

But have you seen the advert for Jenny Craig with Demented Spice?

What the holy feckeroonie is THAT about?

'now I go widdly widdly widdly when I walk, before Iused to go badooma badooma badooma'

That advert makes me want to gorge myself on chocolate stuffed donughts wrapped in choux pastry and dipped in jam.

Lol at nuts.
That's funny. I was once getting a parking ticket outside a community centre abd a rather nervous looking fat ish guy lolloped over to me to ask if I was going to ww. Bless him

I'm not fat but have ww the odd stone occasionally. I said no I wasn't but how well it worked for me. :)

I think diets work. Greed works faster though.

On Weds I had chips and a roll a can of generic red bull and two cream donuts for lunch. Not one person asked me if I was on a diet. The amount of people who commented on what I was eating was incredible. Well when I say people I mean women of course.

Jeez you would have thought I was eating a buttered baby at my desk.

Women are weird about food. That is all.

The feeling of liberation when you lose weight that's been troubling you us brilliant though. No more breathing in, covering your arms or your arse. Just fantastic.
That's why I feel sad for women posting that they look bad hate clothes people avoiding the elephant in the room, avoiding dating " do yourself a favour, eating isn't making you happy "

Lol
Not avoiding dating. Avoiding saying.

On every other "relationship "
The advice on here would be to bin an unhappy one. Yet with food we' enable.

I am starting Cambridge diet tomorrow. :(
