Today in things that never happened.
She probably said Vivaldi' The Four Seasons* to make sure everyone knew she was a cut above.
* it was the first one that came to mind which says more about me really

I’d fuck up anyone younger than me who was interviewing by revealing the classic Agadoo.

If the “what song represents you” really did happen I can see most of the cunts earnestly proclaiming Imagine thinking they’re fucking saints.

I've definitely seen a show where someone only ate fast food and lost weight. Supersize Me shows Morgan Spurlock gaining nearly 2 stone after a month on fast food only but I'm fairly certain he just ate everything he could, and always took the 'supersized' option when offered (though it's been years since I've seen it). That's the whole premise of Subway's 2000s marketing - that you could eat a Subway (fast food) every day and lose weight. Very interesting.

I'd completely panic at a question like that and probably blurt out something like "Baa Baa Black Sheep"

Oh imagine an all-inclusive TUI holiday but the onsite restaurant is Mcdonalds, the ultimate dream.

I enjoyed the film but even at the time, I remember thinking (and everyone saying) that of course eating nothing but three square McD's a day for a month, upsizing and finishing it all even when you don't want it is going to fuck you up. No moral judgement, it's just food, but it wasn't a revelation that doing that isn't good for you.

And didn't it later emerge that he still had his alcohol addiction at the time and he admitted the times he threw up might have been down to being hungover? I might be wrong, but I think there was also a scene where a doctor said his liver looked terrible, and as the alcohol was never mentioned, it was very much implied that the food was responsible but it seems unlikely. That was very wrong in a documentary.

I remember being irritated too when he trotted out his mum and girlfriend to lament and wail ("oh sweetie, I love you, I don't want you to get hurt!"). He's not being sent to war! He's choosing to do this and we all know it isn't healthy! If he gets too ill he should stop, he's made his point!

Then he admitted sexual misconduct...

In my eating disorder days at 6th form I’d go along to mcd’s with the rest of them and have a chocolate milkshake. That’s it.

400 cals. One milkshake a day.
Guess what? Despite all the sugar and carbs I lost a ton of weight very quickly.

there’s definitely something in this Mac Donald’s weight loss diet idea

Isn't that the premise of Slim Fast and all the other weight loss shakes?

It's thermodynamics
Yeah I think he was an alcoholic as well, I'm sure an all supersized McDonalds diet isn't going to do you much good but the liver issues were the alcohol.

I think the biggest issue of an all fast food diet even if it fits in a calorie deficit is you're not getting enough fibre and your digestive system definitely does need that. You'll lose weight though if you're taking in less than you're putting out, you just probably wont feel great and your bowels aren't going to thank you.

Had a laugh at this one in the what do you weigh at 5''10" (or whatever the height was)

I'm substantially shorter (5ft3) and I'm a size 6/8 and weight 65-67kg


Bollocks you weigh that at that height and wear a size 6-8 unless we're talking US 6-8 which is UK 10-12 and even then probably only if you're pretty muscular. Fortunately someone did call it out. Also laughing that the person asked for weight in KG and I know they said stone is fine but it's not difficult to do the conversion.

I think I need to leave this thread. I’m officially a mumsnetter my god. Sittting here reading the McDonald’s posts feeling shocked and sick that so many people eat it. while wearing a striped cardigan over a midi dress from M&S.

That’s it, must get all my ducks in a row to go NC with myself. (in reality I’m going to throw some dippers in the air fryer and put Corrie on)

Quelle Vie De Merde (FML for all you uncultured non french speakers)

Like absolute fuck they're a size 6/8 at that weight and height. 67kg is 148lbs or close enough, I'm 5ft 6 and when I was 148lbs for most of my 20s I was a size 10 on top and a size 12 on bottom (pear shaped).

I hate ice breakers , most stupid thing ever, so in my working days I just lied outrageously. My favourite was when I said I'm descended from inhabitants of Tristan da Cunha. Some rapid eye blinking from the trainer and a swift move to the next victim lol.
