  She looks like she has been boiled in acid and then tumble dried.

  i think shes got some good ideas, but i would never be able to follow her diets to any extreme, nor would i want to, but its better than most of the shit people eat IMO.

  She is a moron, i hate her!
  
  In my opinion half the stuff she says seems untrue, and unproven facts
  
  She may have turned some fat people into a healthier lifestyle but she is way too extreme, to the point that its not necessary. Her stupid recipes! I can think of much nice alternatives that actually look and taste edible
  
  rant over

  For someone so healthy she looks a trifle old in my humble opinion.

  I would love her to look through my fridge and cupboards, cos due to various allergies/intollerances, I never eat dairy/wheat/processed foods- and eat just about all the stuff she always goes on about- she'd love me!!!!!.....she's still a wrinkled old prune tho- I hope that's not due to years of eating all that stuff, otherwise I'm fucked!!!! :eek2:

  Exactly.
  
  If eating as stringently and restrictively as she does would mean turning out as sour-faced and strung-out looking as she is then I'll pass, thanks. I'm all for healthy eating (and a lot of her victims do eat disgusting amounts of disgusting things) but it's to an extreme - even the most qualified and experienced nutritionists would advise "everything in moderation" for the majority of people they see.
  
  Also, wasn't there speculation a while back that she wasn't a "Dr" after all, or something?

  much as this thread is making me chuckle, just need to remind you about liable - if you want to slag her off can you phrase it as 'your own opinion' rather than fact?
  Thanks

  I think what she preaches and promotes can actually possibly be more dangerous than helpful. I know that on her programme she is dealing with extreme cases, people who are very overweight and need drastic lifestyle changes - but for people who aren't necessarily overweight, her diet might be a bit too drastic - she advocates cutting out bread, potatoes, pasta, rice, dairy,red meat....all things that in moderation can be very healthy and beneficial to us...
  
  It's the old adage I guess, if you want to lose weight, eat less and move your body more, although it sometimes can be easier said than done.
