I’m going to put weight stuff under a spoiler as I don’t want to upset anyone

This is not an attack on anyone but I don’t think we can judge whether she has an ED or not based on her weight. She does seem to naturally be slim, but that doesn’t mean she is physically or mentally healthy. I never got far into the underweight BMI even though I starved myself to the point of developing potassium deficiency, which is life threatening and afaik only really happens in otherwise healthy people if they don’t eat. I’m petite and have always been slim so everyone thought I looked fine, which just made me want to lose even more weight. Weight often isn’t a great indicator of health

I do think her thinspo photos could indicate an ED as she might be body checking and wants others to tell her she’s thin for validation. However, while she may be ill she does need to take responsibility and stop doing this, if not for her followers sake then for her brand

If she’s fine and taking thinspo photos, then she’s just a massive dickhead. But we already knew that

She only puts rosemary on her spuds when it comes in the Waitrose packet.

Love that she did a big "good night" tweet at 23:17 saying she had to be up early, then was still tweeting at 01:05.

That’s one of my funniest moments on these threads - I was HOOTING at the confusion! I still can’t see either Jimmy Djokovic or Novak Nail without laughing

Also we must not forget her obsession with the slimming tool, for editing everything, but sometimes she over does things and you end up with wobbly furniture/walls

I notice that comments are ON for her roast potatoes, but no one has commented, which just makes the post look even more pathetic

Does anyone find a connection with obesity and money issues? I have no stop button for food/wine/spending money.
I know what to do to lose weight, i have a good job, i am good at my job, i can exercise, but I just can't stick to my calorie limits. Also, have spent my whole life overspending. It is a bit embarassing tbh. I am over a certain age now and should know better
I wanted to explore this to sort out my relationship with food/money/self --- contacted a counsellor but it wasn't the right one all she did was talk me through CBT. It didn't really help.

Someone really needs to give her some Instagram training. She's hashtagged #kingedward... which brings up hundreds of pictures of British Kings

Even just using capital letters to distinguish words would be good - I did a susanalbumparty and nowthatcherisdead there and thought the hashtag meant 'in the direction of Kinged.'

Definitely. In bad times, id blow what little money I had on food and drink. Impulsive spending is a nightmare. Im clearing lots of debt steadily now, thank god! (Another vote for stepchange from me )

I’m very new here and whilst I have read. Lot of threads I don’t get this reference. Could someone explain? Thank you
I just meant that Jack is trying to solve the mess she’s currently made with the lie about healthy start vouchers and black eyes by deleting her tweets and going private, so Novak Djokovic could try the same

Oh yeah I forgot about Novak Nail not being obvious lol

Jack blocked me on Twitter ages ago because I pointed something out to her she didn’t like. Her fan girls all piled on but I ignored them and they gave up. If she’s going around blocking people she suspects are tattlers she’ll have no followers left, the daft twat - apart from her beloved blue tickers of course. She’s rattled as fuck. Locking her accounts is only going to harm her ‘brand’

yes few weeks ago i went through the online stepchange form, I think it is an amazing thing stepchange. They basically told me to keep paying my loans... which is fine, i can afford them, they are the sort of money people pay to lease a car every month... i was hoping they'd contact my bank and sort it all out for me ....... but ultimately that would have meant me just spending more I reckon. I am just an idiot and gotta suck it up for the next few years and then it will get easier. Makes it worse that my husband and his family are amazing with their money, and I feel really embarassed about my spending. At least we don't have a shared account. ha ha

Her insta comments are only available if she follows back. What a clown

We await a blue ticker comment. Aaaaanytime now would be good.

(I know we're jokingly discussing her tatties, but I promise no discussions from me about anything actually personal to her. MH, SB stuff etc).

Also why is she posting about the potatoes on Monday morning. Who thinks... yeah I'm going to roast a load of potatoes for my lunch on the first day of the working week? Don't get me wrong I love proper roasties but I'll take a sandwich or soup for lunch, thank(space)you.

There are websites that show when your followers are most active/engaged. Use that and some common sense. Then just maybe you'll get better engagement. Also properly crisp and season your roasties. Now fuck off x

It's not just that, for me, it's who has a nice big Sunday roast and doesn't take a pic of everything together, on a table which is heaving with nice stuff, or even of a plate groaning with food? That's the whole point of a big family meal - the kind of excess of it. Who posts every single thing separately (and no pic of the main bit, the chicken), and who posts the dessert before the main course? Like, none of it makes sense.

My great uncle was a chicken sexer. He travelled the world sexing chickens until he lost his sexing finger in an axe accident. And this is absolutely true. Surely if they had dicks he would t have been needed...
I think she may mean cockerel dicks.
