So dispatches on ww tonight on 4 should be interesting.....
Be interesting if nothing else. Either way WW works for me so is money I am happy to invest in myself
I thought it was an odd programme too. Interesting that the one group leader they recorded was the one promoting the products in class.
PS. And I think they should have compared the ice cream to any supermarket basics brand rather than a premium one. I'm sure there are just as many nasties in that kind of ice cream.
I wasn't shocked at this example of lazy reporting. It's what journalist seem to do all the time now, but it's been especially bad since the new year. I think they spent some time brainstorming for January, thinking, what will be people have made new years resolutions about that we can put the cat amongst the pigeons about. The first week it was all about how exercise 'can be dangerous' and not really beneficial (idiotic reporting). Then it was talking about how dangerous it is for people to stop drinking alcohol suddenly, and now it's been the anti diet-club stuff. I suppose they'll be taking a 'quirky new journalistic angle' (read, coming out with all the excuses they think the general public want to hear for themselves to use) on smoking next. For every person rolling their eyes and thinking, 'what a load of tosh' they'll be ten others thinking 'see, I better not join the gym / stop drinking / try to lose weight / etc.' Not because they've been convinced by the arguments, but because it's what they want to hear anyway.
(I'm a Slimming World girl, by the way. I have the books and follow the plan but no longer go to group.)
