Anyone seen this programme where Gillian McKeith helps three fat soon to be brides lose weight and teaches them to eat healthier? The winner gets a lovely wedding dress.
I would like to see 3 thin brides and one big dress.
Make the skinny size zeros eat chocolate and fry ups in an attempt to make them gain weight. And in this show Gillian McKeith wouldn't make the contestants poo in a bucket and show the camera.
-
I watched this show last night although I missed the end. I couldn't believe they could possibly get into a 'thin' dress in six weeks. For 'thin' do we read 'Size 20'.
-
No way was that winner thin.
-
it's not the fat bot that bothered me... it was more that all three of them were absolutely f'n hideous!
(i've got nothing against being ugly, but there 'girls' took the piss...)
-
I agree with you wjp - it's a very scary programme!
-
I didn't want to comment on their ugliness so thanks wjp for doing it for me.
I find their clothes are always horrible. The other night one of the girls hadn't even ironed her top.
-
I think she could have done with ironing her bottom!

ummmmmmmmm, i never considered myself as hideous or took the piss on how i looked. i'm not perfect and i never will be. i can bet that you're no oil paintin yourself either. everyone has their flaws but its best not to judge a book by its cover
as for the clothes louou, each to their own really. had u ever thought that the style of the clothin my be creased for a reason, like "its in fashion"?
about ironin the bots... who gives a feck? lol
regards

So you're not just overweight and unattractive - you can't spell either?

YAWWWWWWWWWWWWN!
can spell, just typin shorthand... seems like smurfs are opposed to anythin short or small :P
-
TypinG. AnythinG.
But seriously, my previous comment was unnecessarily harsh, so I apologise. I haven't seen the show personally so I can't agree or disagree with WJP and Lou.

I didn't see the show either and to be honest I can't see the point of it. With respect Foxie, your wedding is of no interest to me and by the same token, I would not expect you to be interested in my wedding (which took place many years ago anyway).
Having said that, I wish you a long, happy and healthy marriage.
-
hmm... someone on the internet pretending to be someone they're not. what are the odds of that?
-
foxiesgirl why are you on a chocolate forum if you are too fat to get into your wedding dress. I may have to tell Gillian McKeith about this. I suggest you go find yourself a salad forum.
-

-

its me
googled the title of the show and it lead me here
-
Great. Can you post a wedding pic on your next visit.
-
good idea... i'll believe you if you post some wedding pics.
-
So will I.
-

is that any more convincin?

-
Well I'm convinced. Congratulations!
-
that could have been found on the net!

post something more unprofessional and candid and you'll prove your point.
-
Nice picture all the same.
-
Like I said previously, I hope you have a long, happy and healthy life together.
-
well u did ask for a weddin pic wjp666 and thats what u got but, if you're still not convinced then here's another...
-
hmmmmmm - i may actually have to admit you might be genuine here. AND i may have to apologise for some previous comments. hmm.
seriously though - i genuinely take back the ugly comment. you're actually pretty hot in your own way. my comments stemmed from only seeing glimpses of the show here n there and my loathing of all reality shows of that kind. so i may have overreacted.
(the other two were munters though, you gotta admit!

)

seein as i know them both i have to disagree. although i really wanted to win i knew deep down i wouldn't but i so wanted Natasha to win cos not only did she change her life but she changed the life of her family
-
oh, come on! they were scary looking.
seriously though (i ddin't stick with the show) how did winning change the lives of her family n all that?
wjp6662007-07-25 16:59:23
-
cos they're all into a more healthier way of livin and doin more together as a family. a lot better than plonkin your child infront of a computer game with a plate of greasy chips whilst u slob out on the sofa watchin the soaps.
but natasha did not win, it was lee that won
-
Did anyone see that 'Real Dirty Dancing' show last night on 3? I thought it was excellent!
-

Was that Natasha or Lee did that?

i'm just talkin in general really
-
Do you have plans to go on any other shows? Possibly wife swap?
-
my gf did 'Trisha' and 'Guilty', plus countless magazines. she regrets all the publicity - it got to the point where she couldn't walk down the street without being collared.
(the ONLY tv show i've done is 'You've Been Framed' a couple of years ago.)
-
my gf did 'Trisha' and 'Guilty', plus countless magazines.
Why?
-
WHY?
well, it sems a bit odd to look back and explain. but at the time her then(psychotic) husband was abusively violent and had set a national record for the ammount of affairs he'd had. they both rang 'Trisha', thinking it would be a great topic. (hmmmm.) and the publicity started there. newspapers, magazines, tv interviews... i still can't understand it. for some odd reason the media treated it like some major deal, and all that was really being discussed was what a prick this guy was - it was like he was proud of it or something and wanted the publicity. (and yes, he was a bastard - but why does that make good tv etc.?)
i'll never be able to understand what makes people think discussing their problems in public is a good idea.
the 'Guilty' episode is still screening from time to time on sky.
-
That's really interesting. I know someone who had an argument with her boyfriend and he came home one night and he took a knife and stabbed what he thought was her sleeping on the settee. It was in fact her mother who had come to babysit and fell asleep. He went to prison for 20 years and the girl never got over her mother being murdered and ended up in a psychiatric hospital. She sold her story to a magazine for 500.
I don't understand people who discuss their private lives on tv but maybe it's their only way of dealing with traumas and they think it can help.
-
all i know is this... if i was a wife-beating, drug-addicted, unemployed alcoholic teenage parent, i'd stay the f**k away from the likes of Trisha and Jeremy Kyle!
-
I've been watching quite a bit of Jerry Springer on sky lately and it seems now all the women want to strip to their mismatched bra and knickers. Surely if you are thinking you are going to strip you'd wear some matching underwear and not those big baggy off grey pants with the hole in.
-
Do you have plans to go on any other shows? Possibly wife swap?
good question but that's summat i wouldn't do. i like where i live and more inportantly who i'm with

-
When I watch wife swap i usually get upset for one of the women. There's always one that goes from a nice home to an absolute pigsty with a horrible man and badly behaved kids.
Anthea Turners Perfect Housewife show is good but I wouldn't go on it and I definitely wouldn't go on that How clean is your house show. They find dust in places I would never dream of looking.
-
i used to like wicker baskets but after seein anthea harp on about them i wouldn't buy one now
-
nasty germ collectors.

I think there are far too many make-over and self improvement shows and I hate switching on TV and being told that this or that type of chair, or dress, or toothbrush is years out of date. It makes me want to fill my house with un-cool, anti-fashion items just for the hell of it.
I watch Wife Swap and never stop being amazed at the fact that people can never work out that they're going to be put with a family with a totally opposite life-style to their own.
I do feel sorry when some poor woman is put with a chavvy bunch where the husband doesn't work, doesn't do housework and spends the evenings male-bonding at the pub.

It's their own fault for going on the show.

Modern life is so bland. All towns look the same. All music sounds the same. Everyone dresses alike. It's a real shame. I'm sure that life was much more interesting 25 years ago...
These shows just promote everything that I despise about today's society.

Middle aged people always have moaned a lot though, haven't they?
-
Hey, I'm not middle aged
-
I wasn't meaning you.
-
I wasn't meaning you.
Well that's a relief.
Unless you think 30 is the new 40

-
In tests 8 out of 10 cats preferred whiskas.
Whatdya mean, "what's that all about?"
You started this number thing.
-
I've always preferred Whiskas myself.
-
I wasn't meaning you.
He means me. I've turned into a grumpy old woman. Mind you, I agree, life was more interesting when people were not clones and their idols were not chavs and WAGS.
-
Hey! I'm middle aged.
I'll leave you with that thought, Oldspice.
-
i see that 'Tubby' stopped by for her two-cents worth then sharply buggered off. thanks for the flying visit, love, but what really was the point?
-
Fat birds don't have points. They just have lots of round edges.
-
-
I'm torn on this. On one hand I feel bad that she was upset by the comments on here, but on the other I think that anyone who voluntarily appears in a show called 'Three Fat Brides, One Thin Dress' and then expects no one to comment on their looks is very naive.
-
You're torn, Smurfy. I imagine so was her size 16 wedding dress when she tried it on.
-
Oh that's so cruel! Size 16 isn't that big anyway. I know a woman who would kill to be a size 16.
i saw an article in a magazine about a 9 year old American girl who weighed 30 stone. When she was 2, she weighed 7 stone! Eventually, her orans failed and she was admitted to hospital under a care order. She eventually slimmed own to a normal weight.
-
No you're right Oldspice. I don't like skinny women anyway.
Mind you, bingo wings aren't particularly attractive.
