The problem isn't her taking the slimming pills. Not at all. If it's working for her then that's great. We all want something that's going to make the weight fall off at a quicker rate... I think what we've all objected to is the fact that no one else gets a chance at SOW even though they stick to the plan but without slimming pills. If she wants to speed her weight loss like that, then that's her business and none of us (I don't think) have judged her for taking the pills. The objection is the ones who have worked hard without the aid of pills aren't getting the credit for their hard work.. and it is hard work. They are the ones that deserve the certificate and the big smile when they show it to their family.
No credit should be taken away from the lady on the pills, she's obviously doing the plan anyway, and she's losing weight, but her weight loss IS going to be faster. What happens if she's nominated for slimmer of the year etc? She can hardly promote slimming world as a plan that works when she's had a bit of assistance. I would feel the same way if it were someone doing WW or any other plan. It's the little smiles and yellow certificates along the way that make the success of weightloss feel even better.
