She is not able for motherhood. She's just wants to be out wining and dining and flung in bed or watching TV. She hasn't got the energy or interest to parent two small boys. But she blames it on them, especially the older boy. She is angry at the world because of her weight. I certainly don't buy that she is in any way body positive. she has no problem showing off her looks and hair. Her idols are the Kardashians. I used to like her before she had the children. Now she's a bitter entitled middle-aged woman

The gaul of her to complain about how exhausted and stressed she is when by her own admission she's hungover and unorganised. Embarrassing. EMBARRASSING

Agree with so much of has been said about her kids. We all know parenting can be hard and relentless but this 'relatable mom' trend gets on my tits because its being done to death. Why do we 'need to start a conversation about it'. I'm pretty sure anyone who has kids knows it's not always a bed of roses. I'll complain to my friends, you complain to yours and that way you are not mortifying your children and we can get on with our lives.
No one is saying it's not okay to find it hard, it's just the constant whinging about it. She is the one is who is fucking relentless.

The tattoo I think is her way of trying to convince herself she is trying to be ok with being fat when the opposite is true. A miss piggy on someone plus size ! Now i not fat shaming or whatever the newest buzz word is as I am very overweight myself but I have overweight friends who champion her as body positive etc, she is the opposite to me. Moany and not at all OK with her larger body and puts across an awful view of people who are a larger size / fat / plus size, call it what you want. If she was thin and filthy rich she'd still have something to complain about

There’s more to this weekend than meets the eye. A successful (???) show wouldn’t just be cancelled like this with 24 hours notice. I suspect the show was bombing in the ratings. To me it primarily consisted of her interviewing the same five friends on a loop, all of whom shared her opinions and with a lot of mutual self-praise / self-congratulatory chatter. Very little tolerance for different view points.

Chronically online Louise hasn’t replied to a single comment on her post re lululemon. For one so vocal it’s amazing how a few quid bought her silence! I’m guessing it’s a sign of her dwindling career, that she could be bought easily. The old Louise would’ve turned that down and been vocal about why. Ya we all got bills to pay but this is hardly a big career move. An ad for a pop up in kildare.

I've been listening to her podcast since she launched it, bar maybe one or two episodes. Think I've discovered why she was let go from 2FM. It's the same format and the same people every week. The podcast is much the same as her radio show, just on a different platform. She has many of the same people on and they chat about much the same topics every week.
It's probably because her friends tell her it's great and to keep it up. So it's a big echo chamber. Even when she was on radio she'd have her journal.ie pals on as guests. It's amazing really. They're all in the media and then tell each other they're underrepresented silent victims of society. Just a bunch of middle class arts students attention seekers really.

She seems to really have an issue with someone loosing weight and not being fat anymore. And I think it's the "not being fat anymore" part she has an issue with. Like it or lump it you should support someone if they choose to lose weight - it might be for health reasons, aesthetics etc. But losing weight and keeping it off can be difficult to do, require willpower, determination, changing habits etc. It's not "congrats you're not fat anymore", it's "congrats you have worked hard on something that was important to you".

I'm guessing when other people loose weight she must feel that it is putting pressure on her to do the same.

You can't celebrate getting free donuts and then complain that society isn't built for you.
Well you can’t if you’re fat is what you are saying. Society isn’t accommodating for lots of people, eg. people in wheelchairs, people with sensory issues, people who can’t read or write. But they can get excited about free doughnuts and society still largely won’t be accommodating for them. The anti-fat bias is real.

The real problem is society’s obsession with judging people’s bodies. The question with appeared on the leaving cert paper this week will tell you all you need to know about where we are in this country on the topic. Absolutely disgraceful in 2022.

The point is - if a person won’t take personal responsibility for their health choices be that through excessive eating, smoking or drinking or whatever, then they shouldn’t expect the state to.
That's very harsh, there can be a massive mental health factor to disordered eating, alcoholism and addiction. Some people have a strong genetic predisposition to experience mental health issues or have adverse life events that increase their chances of bad mental health.

The solution is to fund and manage the health service properly, not ration care based on numbers on a weighing scale.

I find it pretty hypocritical of her to give it about tattle but then follows celebrity gossip accounts on Instagram/twitter like deuxmoi, thetalkofshame etc

Had to unfollow Louise as her constant complaints are her kids were getting to me from a fertility perspective. Its completely normal and natural to have a rant and a bad day sometimes, but it got to the stage where I never saw her say anything good about them? She would have bigger problems if she wanted kids and was told she couldn't have them, it's starting to all feel insensitive to those with infertility issues who would love to be in her position. Again of course a rant about the kids is normal but it's literally constant?

This ‘stores not stocking plus sizes’ rant is getting old.

I’m by no means fat phobic but there is a health element to this and maybe brands don’t want to be seen endorsing unhealthy lifestyles. Also, is there a target market? For most brands, no. Most women fall within the 10 to 18 range and once you go over that it’s understandable that clothes are not readily available. It’s the same for extra small. Size 4 is difficult to come by because size 4 women are so rare.

She needs to stop blaming others and maybe work on her health. Having clothes in bigger sizes is not going to fix her problems
With all due respect, the average size in Ireland is around a 16. Which means there are a large number of women well over that size.
It’s easy to say that bigger=unhealthy but time and time again, this just isn’t always true.

I don’t agree with all of what Louise says/does but this is her thing. She’s a champion of this and does it really well. Why shouldn’t fat women get to dress in nice things if they want? The idea that they shouldn’t be allowed to is crazy.

Reads like she's brain washed. In her world it's nearly impossible to lose weight. And there's no health implications.

In the real world, the mortality gap between the bottom 25% of exercise fitness and top 2% is 10 times bigger than the difference between smokers and non smokers.
It's clear in it her mental health is very bad but so is her victim complex.

She is the one who put it out into the world that she was fat/body positive. She got a miss piggy tattoo so sure was she that she was happy in her skin. She went on about it constantly and was quite aggressive to/about anyone who didn't feel like her - for example, other well known people like Adele who chose to lose weight.

It's also absolute bullshit that thin people are delighted ozempic exists because "they hate fat people and want them gone". The people selling out these weight loss jabs are fat people - not because of fatphobia but because however much she wants the narrative to be different, navigating the world in a very fat body is physically and in turn emotionally harder (follow Laura Addington for proof - another one who bangs on about being fat and happy but has a panic attack at theatres and restaurants if she doesn't fit in the seats).

And lastly Louise, the IMs you got (or if you mean actually you read here?) about your "real" face wasn't shock at your size, it was shock at the lies YOU TOLD when you post heavily edited selfies that clearly don't resemble what you actually look like.

I'm sure some people are dicks to people just because they are fat (I'm fat, it's happened very occasionally in my life). But most of that article is about Louise's own demons with herself - which whilst I have enormous sympathy for her, again is at odds with the narrative SHE put out that she's comfortable in her skin.

I'd love to know what she thought having children would be like. I mean I have young kids myself and I get that there are days where I feelblike im about to crack or would just love a day of lazing in front of the TV, watching what I want and just have no worries , nowhere to go, nothing to do. I'd love to have more money to spend on me, and more time to pamper myself occasionally.
But I knew that it would be like this for a while. This is what it is to be a parent and its not like I never get a break or am some martyr to my children, I'm not. But for a few years when they are small, they are the priority. It's OK to feel like you want a break, to have a moan to your friends, family or partner, but it's just all the time, just constant from her and in such a public way. It's really unfair on the kids. They had no say in being born.
