ooh, two of the docs I've recommended to people on mn are the "good" guys on this prog! the paed allergy guy and the paediatrician (who looked after my son for 3 years from birth). Hurrah, they are both excellent.

mckeith is clearly a fraud, but so are all of these very high profile diet people aren't they?

Bugger by the time I found the remote it was over Sad

princessinapeartree · 13/12/2004 20:36

well go and watch "the way we were" on skycinema 1 instead then, barbra streisand's hair is FABULOUS!

It is repeated at 03.45 AM

So set your video for 03.45 on tuesday 14th Dec

So it is on again in about 7 hours time so you could stay up to watch Grin

That is also ITV1

I don't think that Gillian McKeith woman is pretending to be a doctor (v serious crime!) rather, she has a PhD in Dietetics.
Why do you think she's a fraud? Her advice seems sound to me, basically what any nutritionist is saying these days!

KangaSantaMummy · 13/12/2004 20:52

apparently she got it from a correspondence course in USA that was NOT accredited {I think that is the correct term} so it is not recognized as a PhD

Did you watch the other things that she had said like was on Joan Rivers BUT it was a celebraty gossip columnist nothing to do with food.

Anyway I do not have a personal prob with her as I have NOT bought her books or products because I think they are all a con.

But I am sucpicious about things like diet guru people

I did nuy her book - as I was interested in her aproach. SCARY STUFF. The diet she promotes in her book is nothing like the one she promotes on her TV programme. Read some of it, skimmed the rest and threw it away.

joashiningstar · 13/12/2004 21:12

buy...not nuy

Drat, missed this.....'Dr' McKeith is a well-known fraud. You can read about her preposterous claims here and here and here

FLOPSEYfairylightswithBUNNIES · 13/12/2004 23:45

i honestly think she has a lot of b8llocks for doing what she's done, have you made alot of money recently?

SantaGoesToTheGym · 13/12/2004 23:54

was that B8ollocks or Botox ?? have you seen her lately ??

Fran1 · 13/12/2004 23:57

I'm embarrassed to say i bought her book (the first and last diet book i will ever buy).

I had seen a couple of her progs and thought she made sense, in a desperate bid for pre-baby body i bought it, read it once and thought noooooo way can i do that!!

She wants u to live off nuts basically and a load of other stuff i've never heard of that you prob have to ship in from the bermuda triangle!

Phew! glad i got that of my chest.

FLOPSEYfairylightswithBUNNIES · 14/12/2004 00:08

LOL sgttg, too true fran 1 , jayzuz what does she think we are, did you read her detox day, what a load of botox, obviously doesn't have kids!

Caligulights · 14/12/2004 00:15

Detox my arse. Whenever I hear that word, I think of Eddie Murphy in the nutty professor talking about colonic irrigations.

Detox is just a posh name for crash diet!

FLOPSEYfairylightswithBUNNIES · 14/12/2004 00:25

i cosidered getting a colonis once, is it really that good!, will it help me loose 26 stones

FLOPSEYfairylightswithBUNNIES · 14/12/2004 00:26

oh , it's late you know what i mean!
