And there it is, better get on that treadmill hun, just until you finish writing your big expose of course, I’m sure you’ll have the whole industry shut down with that and then you can stop hating yourself.

Ah now we see what the real issue is. Why are you so bitter?

The funny thing is that I don’t use WLI’s but I’m really glad people have access to them.

SilenceInside · 11/03/2026 21:51

Such a super odd thing to do, to spend the best part of £300 to somehow “prove a point” to random people on the internet, or to write some sort of self published online report about it, for no audience.

And as we can now see from the OPs latest post, it’s just badly disguised hate and disgust aimed towards obese people.

I wonder if this will appear as clickbait on one of the Rage sites.

"You'll be amazed at what someone wrote on page 49!"

Aaaaand, there it is. I mean, your mask was pretty pathetic and unbelievable from the start but it didn't really take that long to slip.

"Journalist" 🤣

What an unpleasant person you sound.

Bearzo · 11/03/2026 22:04

I think op knows perfectly well that 'skinny jabs' posts are well responded to, and often cause controversy, she sounds unwell and is looking for easy attention, and quite frankly is getting it.

FreshInks · 11/03/2026 22:05

I suspect OP has a very unhappy life

Ozgirl76 · 11/03/2026 22:08

It never takes long for the “concern” to show its true colours - simple envy that they aren’t all that slim. And if they can’t be slim they can’t stand that other people are. How sad.

Sounds like a scam. Your BMI is in the "normal" range.

Actually for some ethnicities a bmi of 23 is overweight

They are being traded online .

That is not a prescriber issue though, is it?

DarkForces · 11/03/2026 22:16

It's a shame they deleted the post that revealed the op's actual motives. I missed it and lost the context

Basically she just attacked larger people in a hateful manner.

randomchap · 11/03/2026 22:18

Basically she just attacked larger people in a hateful manner.

And accidentally admitted that she is 7lb’s overweight herself. I think she’s just jealous and hates people who are eligible for WLI.

Ah. Typical stuff then.

For the love of Mary and Joseph...read the feckin thread from the start!

I did.

FreshInks · 11/03/2026 21:10

Nobody. Because it’s all rubbish.

Well quite.

Because i work in the health industry and i and others will do the best to stop this weight loss private jab industry.

So people who are genuinely overweight shouldn't be able to reduce their weight by these means? Only thin people matter then? The long term health of thin people is important but not that of the overweight?

Presumably if you work in the health industry, you are seeing a reduction in whatever it is you do? You are worried for your job?

Ireolu · 12/03/2026 06:19

Bitter much OP? Thread makes little sense. Don't think your experiment will have the desired impact.
