I’m no snowflake either but find the constant foul language vulgar and off putting. I can’t stand it when it’s every other word! He’s really limiting his audience by doing it anyway, I’m not exactly going to suggest my mum who says ‘oh sugar!’ has a look at his page, she’d probably try and put a complaint in with Ofcom

Me too!! I'm not easily offended by swearing but you expect a degree of professionalism.
I left after a month. I didn't feel like I learnt anything new & felt I was paying just to use an app. I had more success on my own just googling specific fitness related info.

I don't think Ritchie would be approachable. There are reasons beyond being lazy why someone isn't losing weight.

He’s even harsher within the group, it’s very uncomfortable to see him calling someone a lazy excuse maker when they could have all sorts going on in their lives that he couldn’t possibly understand. I’m so glad I left! I wonder if they’ll realise one day how difficult it can be if they end up having children or if their business hits the skids and they have to go back to real jobs?

That’s awful.

He would hate me, I often leave the house at 6am for work and don’t get home from work until 7pm, sit on the sofa in a daze (if I haven’t been intercepted by the pub on the way back ) then to quote my fav comedian Dylan Moran, ‘eat bread straight from the bag, dipping it in anything runnier than bread!’ Pretty much

Would love to see some screenshots from the group of what he is really like

People think Tattle is full of trolls but most things I’ve read have just been giving opinions and telling the the truth, often opening people’s eyes to things. I think a lot of these online fitness people get too big for their boots and start giving advice when they’re not qualified which is very dangerous. Definitely check out Preece Nutrition, I’ve been part of all these groups and his is the first one I’ve felt comfortable enough to ask for help.

I am most definitely not a troll. I’ve been on here far too long. I think we’ve all just found our people here. I love it.

Am not in the group now, haven't been for over a year.

When I was a member it was more that he would do a video rant and humiliate you and then others would pile on in the comments which is why I never dare ask for help.

Eg someone would say something like i'm asingle mum, I work in an office, I have to get my kids sorted and I'm really struggling to get my steps. There was no understanding for how much that person was doing or had on her plate just a nasty rant about her making excuses and being lazy and she should get off her a and get her 15k steps done. The rants would be long winded and repetitive and tbh more than a bit threatening.

 

[Bae56]

I never went on any of the groups, glad I didn't as that sounds awful. Kicking someone when they're down. That could deter someone altogether.

Guys like him are 10 a penny in the gym.

One thing I found distracting when R&R were doing a video together was that when she was talking (from a script) he would be silently mouthing all the words beside her

There’s definitely something about their relationship that doesn’t sit well with me. I could be wrong but he seems very controlling of her and always has to profess how supportive he is of her, usually if someone has to big themselves up like that the opposite is true. She seems a bit like a Stepford Wife, she’s very beautiful and very lean but she cones across a bit like a robot going through the motions. It’s like he’s the puppet master and she’s a beautiful little blonde meek Pinocchio!

Completely! There was one video where you could see he had s short fuse. He didn't snap or anything but it was an awkward moment. Reacting to something minor. It was about a year ago I was a member.
She always keeps her composure, seems very nice, gentle, dare I say more intelligent? They seem like a mismatched teenage couple. There's obviously something keeping them together but I thought she wouldve outgrown him.
Could picture him down the pub with his top off being a lout

I thought she would have moved on from him by now too, especially with all the drama he causes. Who wants to be bothered with all that? She maybe doesn’t want to as she’ll be raking in the money too, if she leaves him she leaves the company and the shedload of money they’re clearly making (even though they state otherwise!) Must be very monotonous day in day out sitting monitoring the facebook group, filming the same old workouts and filming yourself making protein based food. Can’t imagine I would last long doing that, need more of a mental challenge!

He's absolutely disgusting!! Yes everything does have calories, but taking it to that extreme is WRONG. They can swivel on my large one. Hopefully more and more people get the message about them and it all blows up in their faces. He probably wouldn't care if someone had an ED as long as he could use that person as a poster for his "success" .. Arseholes. Rachael is looking rather scrawny these days too. She's dropped a lot of weight recently and she had a lovely figure anyway!

He is the worst human being I have ever encountered in my opinion. Their plan and most of what they say makes sense, it is the person in charge the problem lies with. He diets within an inch of his life all the time, sacrifices his family, friends, the girlfriend he tells social media it is all for etc, all for his diet. Normal people with human emotions will put family, friends etc before their diet. Rather be overweight than obsessed to that degree.

I’m so sorry you went through that. I haven’t suffered the way you have but as someone who has struggled with yoyoing in weight my whole life I definitely have elements of disordered eating, and I grew up with a mum who was very restrictive with her eating (she probably did have some sort of ED) so I have huge alarm bells when I see anything like this promoting disordered eating.



Couldn’t agree more, being that extreme is dangerous. I would rather carry a few extra pounds than live a life where I track things like paracetamol, it’s not worth it. I was thinking the same about Rachael, she used to have a gorgeous figure and lovely personality but now she’s looking quite scrawny but very muscular in the shoulders (almost masculine) and she’s coming across as very forced and fake bubbly now. I also hate the way he calls her “my Rachael” - I know it’s supposed to be endearing but something about him saying it gives me creepy vibes.

I have noticed that ''My Rach'' thing too for a while now, it is as if she is his property.

too self righteous and a little bit controlling over HIS missus.

I very very much see this too

They will never have kids, I think that is the one way Rachel would start to see him the way he is if Maternal instincts kicked in. Now I personally think she is complicit in his actions, no smiley face on live videos will disguise that to me.

I don't think Ritchie would be approachable. There are reasons beyond being lazy why someone isn't losing weight.

He just does not get why people do not put themselves first in life, he can't grasp someone eating loads of food for comfort after a hard week, a family member taking ill etc. So he disguises lambasting people as ''caring'' or ''tough love''.

Agree with every word. It is hiding in pain sight I believe. I have found the more someone tells you they are a good person, the more they are actually not. The more and more I see Richie say how he cares for Rachael, I personally believe he does not.

Agree with everything I really do hope people leave in droves and stop falling for the tough love act.

Tough love shouldn't be used as a blanket approach. It only works for certain people & certain situations. It can't be applied to everyone all of the time. He doesn't know the members on a personal level.

There's a whole host of emotions involved when you're overweight, if someone is following a plan (your plan) & asking for help you give them positive encouragement & don't just reiterate what they already know in a harsh/humiliating manner. Without their members they're nothing.

I was at my peak health & fitness wise but after kids & chronic illness I'm the worst I've been. I had an abundance of time & energy to spend in the gym & prep meals. I don't have that luxury anymore. Kids come first & I come last. People's lives are bigger & more complex than getting your steps in & with all the will in the world, sometimes it just doesn't happen.

Well said, it’s the members who are paying their bills so he should treat them with more respect. There’s tough love then there’s just being a douche!

Being overweight is a constant mental, emotional and physical battle. Some people who really struggle need a kinder approach. I’m exactly the same as you, I’m not the priority any more, my kids are and that’s absolutely how it should be. I would like to lose a bit of weight but I don’t want my kids to have a mum who prioritises working out over their needs and makes them think they need to weigh out every gram of food.

 

[Twinkle Toes 11]

They are persistent and hard up for 6.99
I’m just ignoring them now
You win some and you lose some

Just remember it's illegal for them to add charges, only a court of law can do that. Have a look on step change, they have some good advice for dealing with being hassled and legal rights with regards to "debts" They try and scare people by mentioning solicitors what a load of old rit!

You're so right, life takes over & you need to prioritise, for us it's our kids. I'm the same I'd love to lose weight but it's on pause for now. That's such a good point, you want to focus on them & make sure they have a healthy relationship with food.

his product can't be that good if he has to rely on people paying upfront or trying to lock people into a £6.99 a month dodgy contract

Isn't the Team RH foundation based on how they aren't like other slimming companies who just want money?

I thought the same now they are begging for £6.99 and scraping every penny. It's embarrassing for them

 

[Scragbags]

oh god I used to follow these two in the early days and I could just about stand them then.
I can imagine him being proper nasty irl

I quite liked them in a way when they first started as they brought something a bit different and his manner was a bit shocking but it intrigued me and I thought he made good points. He just got progressively cruder and nastier, and has become a hypocrite as he’s worse than any diet club. I’ve seen/heard stories from people who left his group (staff and members) and he most definitely sounds like a horror in real life!
