“Ultimately, anyone who uses a title other than Registered Dietitian (RD), Registered Nutritionist (ANutr, RNutr) or (evidence-based) Nutritional Therapist is not appropriately qualified to offer personalised nutritional advice. There are countless online nutrition courses boasting how you can call yourself a Nutritionist in as little as two weeks, yet none will qualify you to join any one of the recognised UK registers … It is advisable to ask anyone who you are considering taking personalised nutritional advice from about their qualifications and satisfy yourself that they are appropriately qualified”. NB a proper qualification is not obtained from an on-line certificate mill.

I know you all know that but it seems there’s a certain bot who doesn’t and who is reading this thread…

Good to see castle likes her mayonnaise

Yawns course is £147, but then a quick Google finds a voucher code that reduces it to £29 🤣

PieonaBarm · 26/02/2023 18:38

Good job she didn't pay full price for that course. Boiler's broken at T'Thatch. Oh dear......

Spongebobette · 26/02/2023 19:46

Any course run by something called ‘Centre of Excellence’ is suspect

Spongebobette · 26/02/2023 19:57

150 hours

I don’t see her completing it

Ohnonevermind · 26/02/2023 21:12

Yawn says most people spend more one planning their holidays rather than planning their lives

I’m guessing that’s why yawn is so successful, as she never plans a holiday 🤣🤣

Sugarplum48 · 26/02/2023 22:50

Had to put this on for yawn,castle,fierce and bruv

Not enough emojis to be convincing.

Angrymum22 · 27/02/2023 11:13

Went down a rabbit hole looking at “Centre of Excellence” looks like the the scam artist has been scammed.
The woman who runs this venture has interesting accounts. It looks a bit similar to what Castle was trying to set up, but with a Ct little more content. The reviews are interesting. Looks like it’s a copy and paste set up for people who can’t be bother to do the work themselves. They can fly through the content and take tests at the end of each module then pay for a certificate at the end. The set up makes it very easy to bypass study and just take the module tests, thereby learning very little.
The CEO has made a shed load of money over the last 5 yrs.She has hit a formula for success that most bots can only dream of.
The company is not Ofqual recognised so none of the “qualifications” are legitimate or recognised by governing bodies.
You would think Yawn could spot a scam.
I suspect much of the online content is plagiarised. The CEO is just very good at copy , paste and posting. With the facility to print/photocopy and collate the course content.
To be honest the very rapid increase in turnover and profit of the company is a little suspicious and looks like it may be a money laundering endeavour.

SnoogyWoo · 27/02/2023 11:35

Oh the irony, someone has copied fierces profile on Facebook and trying to scam people 😂

Twentytwentyhindsight · 27/02/2023 12:15

Fierce has just done her 'big reveal' about her new scamming venture. I can't be arsed to listen to the whole thing, so I'm not sure exactly what the con is about this time, but she assures us that the fleecing will be carried out in a bespoke and personalised manner.

SnoogyWoo · 27/02/2023 12:32

The start of it is exactly the same as when she was revealing scamversity

OP posts:
Sugarplum48 · 27/02/2023 12:45

So fierce is of to LA, the land of the ultimate scam. I tried to watch her podcast thing but she bored me to death. What I did catch was rattling on about spirtuality, abundance of cash blah blah blah quadrants this, quadrants that mehhhhhh. yaddah yadda im full full of shit and in a round about way stating how shit it was castle as she felt she'd basically been alienated working with castle. And now that idiot yawn is trying to pretend she is a bonafida nutrition lady with her new certificate when she gets it. HAVE A DAY OF LOVE!!!!

SnoogyWoo · 27/02/2023 13:22

Why is the world not full of zillionaire women if all you have to do is vibrate really well.

Someone mentioned yawn being 16st and size 18 earlier in the thread. Her actual words were “ in January I was 17st and size 18 now ( 09/11/22) I’m 11st and ordering size 10”. She seems to change the figures every time she posts.
I struggle to believe she was size 18 at 17st. And if she has lost 5.5 st that make her 11.5st.
I you are going to document weight loss on SM at least be consistent with the figures. It is so easy to check.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 27/02/2023 15:39

So for Castle, 'content' is basically photos of herself. Good that she's making this explicit so that the Scamversity subscribers know exactly what it is that they are paying for 🤣

MaireadMcSweeney · 27/02/2023 16:34

11 stone and a size 10?? In what universe do they add up?
I'm hippy whereas yawn is booby but when I was 10 stone I was still a size 12. 11 is a 14 in anyone's book. Yawn isn't tall!

To be fair to her, I think she is quite tall? Certainly significantly taller than me. I'm 15.5 stone and a size 18 at 5ft4in.

Not sure why I'm 'being fair' to her though. From what I can make out she is an awful woman!

Twentytwentyhindsight · 27/02/2023 17:29

Also not one to want to be unduly nice about Yawn, but she is quite tall.

"@MaireadMcSweeney

Absolutely! And she's saying she weighed 16 stone? I swear she said it was 14 stone at the time. No way was she a size 14 at 16 stone!"

At my largest I was 16st 2.5lb and I was a size 22 nudging a size 24. I lost 5 stone by eating normal food (and have kept it off for 23 years) and at my smallest have been a size 10.

It was me that commented about Yawns weightloss and compared it to mine. I'm 5'8", at pretty much bob on 11 stone I'm a size 10, and have been for years, I'm currently a 12/14 at 12st 4lb after some significant health issues recently. Everyone carries it differently though I suspect she's built a bit like me.

Sugarplum48 · 27/02/2023 18:07

I think from the last time l saw yawn she's about 5ft6/7. She vows she'll never be fat again!!! We will see!! Just like she says she doesn't drink anymore!! That's proved to be a lie. She's so dumb when it comes to people taking pics of her with alcohol.

What is really confusing about that is that I have a screen shot of her in a black and red top which she put on line around Jan/Feb last year where she is looking very slim thanks to photoshop, in fact her whole face is distorted and the staircase behind her has obviously been doing endless C9s too. She wasn’t claiming to be 17st when she posted that picture. Later on to demonstrate her weight loss she used the same photo in the black and red top without the photoshop as one of her “before” photos, clearly having forgotten she’d offered the highly edited version before. We discussed it here didn’t we? She must have read the thread because the photo shopped version disappeared. How are we meant to follow her weight loss journey when that journey contains so many u-turns and blind alleys?

Ohnonevermind · 27/02/2023 20:26

Are people still paying castle for the absolute drivel she is spouting. I can’t listen any more. The poor person who has to listen and type it up.

Is castle expecting another castle. It might be a good way to exist her scamversity and attach herself to the bot who sells nu skin.
