Far far too skinny, it's not attractive, how does she stay alive?

OP is a teacher I believe.

ChewlipsFromHamsterDan · 24/10/2015 21:32

Bet my arse she's way more attractive than you OP, no matter her size.

She's beautiful to look at.

I would have thought that a dietician would have a good understanding how dangerous it can be to "body shame" another person.

Dietician my arse!

DinosaursRoar · 24/10/2015 21:33

There's been lots of angst on the various X factor threads, the early auditions she actually looked thinner than she did tonight, but apparently she lost a lot of weight after a death in the family earlier in the year (some people comfort eat, she's one of those who go the other way when stressed). She looks like she's regained a bit of that, so I'm guessing she's just eating sensibly after a period of struggling with family traumas.

Do you go on threads where some celeb has been through a hellish time and comfort ate to say they are now a bloater and need to diet because they are no longer attractive (in your eyes)?

I'm someone who loses weight rather than comfort eat when stressed/depressed. I've been called "lucky" when I dropped a dress size when my dad had a stroke. I really wasn't trying to look more "attractive".

What are people going to hoik their Bridget Jones' up at if Cheryl gains a bit of weight?

Oh I know, they'll go back to posting about how Amanda Holden is 'wasting away'...

Scarydinosaurs · 24/10/2015 21:38

What qualifications have you got to call yourself a dietician?

HubertsBirthdayStick · 24/10/2015 21:39

Shall I post again Wink
Yes

I'm this thin. IM FINEAngryAngryAngry

DinosaursRoar · 24/10/2015 21:42

article about family stress - really, not everyone comfort eats when stressed.

40thisisit · 24/10/2015 21:43

um what's the point of having a discussion forum if we can't discuss like adults without getting all bitter and twisted???

emotionsecho · 24/10/2015 21:43

Perhaps the OP would be good enough to link us to all the threads she has started on overweight celebrities, either male or female, where she has passed judgement on their unhealthy eating and size from her dietician viewpoiint and slating them for being poor role models, etc.

40thisisit · 24/10/2015 21:45

Um and maybe you should get a life emotion!

I don't really think about celebs at all but I saw a picture of Cheryl last week going to Ant & Decs party and thought she was looking stunning. She looks in proportion to me!

PickleSarnie · 24/10/2015 21:46

But slagging off people about their weight isn't behaviour I'd expect from adults. It's the sort of thing I'd expect from bitchy teenagers. The really horrible bully ones.

I wish it wasn't bad form and not the done thing to link to previous posts on here.

You're being very hypocritical OP, that's all!

BrendaandEddie · 24/10/2015 21:47

i dont think bringing a posters job into it is relevant, unless of course you think all teachers/njurses police folk are without blame

Op.... Do you mean 'emoticon'?

herecomesthsun · 24/10/2015 21:49

This reads on the list of threads trending as

"Cheryl was Cole is...
pregnant with 6th child..."

HeySoulSister · 24/10/2015 21:50

brenda the op herself said she was a dietician, she brought that up herself. Ok?

emotionsecho · 24/10/2015 21:51

I'm not the one being judgmental/body shaming OP, I suggest you are the one who needs to get a life.

DinosaursRoar · 24/10/2015 21:51

You have started a thread to slag off the bodyshape of a woman you deem not to be the right size to be attractive and you think other people on here saying "she's fine" are the ones who need to get a life?

I think it's interesting actually, (assuming you really are a dietician) you assumed straight away that notable weight loss on a celeb is deliberate and an attempt to look more attractive (hense you commenting that it's not), but I would put good money on you not automatically assuming someone who's gained weight has chosen to do that.

LadyNellCardross · 24/10/2015 21:53

What a nasty post. You should be ashamed OP.
