I'm not getting into this again
in case I start another argument.

But I'm glad they didn't go down the knee-jerk 'all diets are bad' route. The show has been pretty balanced, to be fair.

the argument or the programme?

Who was arguing?
I meant the programme.
( girlinthehole, Wed 26 Jan 2011, 21:04, Reply)

In the lunchtime thread
I was talking about Lighterlife (the one the stick-peeer was on) and I was saying how fantastic I found it.

Badger started in on everyone (mostly Roota, but don't tell djtp) about how diets were evil and were going to kill us.

Ah! I'm sure Roota can stick up for herself.
Unless snow is involved. She's crap in snow.

I just get really stressy when people take the moral highground over diets
especially when they don't me and how I struggle with food. I might feasibly have had to flounce off before I took it personally.

Many times this
it's very easy for a thin person to say 'oh well, just eat less and exercise more' - it's a lot fucking harder than that.

If you have an eating disorder and you're underweight, everyone takes that seriously
if you have an eating disorder that makes you overeat you're just a fat bitch.

that's how you read that?
he calmly said that fad diets are generally bad for you in the long run and that eating healthily and regular exercise is the best thing to do.

Don't see anything wrong with that.

Unless you can't exercise much
sometimes it's not feasible to eat 1000 calories a day for the rest of your life

I don't really know calories that well
but shouldn't both men and women be eating a lot more than 1,000 a day? I should probably keep my mouth shut on the issue of dieting as I'm a bastard who's never been on one.
