Default Gillian McKeith

What is it with that woman ?

Investigating fat ladies turds, saying how it doesnt look good, based on what ? turds generally arent most peoples favourite items, except for those 'Ca-turd' for by a few very specialist pay websites. I am dying for someone to get on the programme specifically just to empty one on her smug head.

What qualification do you get to just look at faeces and decide that the owner is unhealthy, any turd presented to me in Tupperware Sandwich box worries me about the owners health, squatting over a butty box just isnt right, (unless its your boss's and they slip up and leave it unguarded).

I think the good 'Doctor' should be made to show her textbook perfect turds every week so we can see what we should aspire too, Ill bet that they aint 'all that'.

It doesnt work like that really does it, don't know about you lot but sometimes I eat healthy for weeks and would be ashamed to show it 'Dr' McKeith yet other times I can live on Kebabs, Stella, Full English, Chips, Curry and produce a stout yeomanic turd that she would mount on her wall on a wooden plinth in the manner of a trophy Mooses head !

Plus, she's an ignorant cow, I have sent her four of my finest and she hasnt replied once with a 'Well Done' or even a 'Sweetcorn needs more chewing'

Anyway, watching her programme really put me off my brew and Chocolate Homewheat biscuits.

Article in the paper about how she has been forbidden from using the title Dr anymore as it was basically bought as some on line course from an obscure
foreign institution

The thing is, she comments about people having bad skin etc, she's hardly the picture of health herself

Not quite mate. She has agreed not to use the title Dr. in advertising as the ASA have deemed it misleading. She agreed to spare herself the embarassment of the findings being put into the public domain.

There is nothing that can be done about her calling herself Dr in other contexts. Indeed she has claimed that she will continue to use the title in other contexts as "she has earned it".

She is MOST certainly NOT a genuine Ph.D. Nor is she a MD. She should NOT be using the title of Dr.

Longest post ever? (not the last 1, the previous lol)

And yes, she's not a "real" Dr and doesn't exactly teach rocket science - eat healthily and exercise isn't groundbreaking advice to someone who wants to lose weight.

Revisited was funny tonight - first 8 weeks, lose 2+ Stone, next 12 months, lose 7 pounds. Either the diet doesn't work and it's all bull**** or it's so bad nobody can stick to it.

Mind you dunno how old she is, but she looks old haggered and worse than my Mum who's approaching 70. So if all that "good food" has that effect, you can stick it back up your ****!

Sure is matey "You are what you eat Gillian moves in"... Channel 4 latest series just ended...
She picks fat people to come and live in her house. Feeds them seeds, makes them do yoga and shat in a tupperware box for a week or two. She shows them a table full of the food they eat each week to make them feel guilty, shows them a video tape of their kids saying how they done want fat mummy to die and often makes them stand in a bath of saturated fat or something to make a point. She then sends them home with a diet list which comprises of seeds and some seeds.
Said people try the seeds for a bit and then with 5 mins to go the particpants get an over zealous makeover and weigh in and we are told how wonderful Gillian and her diet of seeds with seeds and seed dressing is
The before and after makeover thing is hilarious

Seeds anyone? LD

LOL. Glad no-one has had a go at her for being a Scottish irritating cow !

Like the idea of her going through the ritual "poo in the tupperware" humiliation herself !

PS Apologies for the v long post. Not my words (in case that wasn't already clear) It was actually forwarded to me by a colleague in education with the suggestion that it be circulated to students as an example of why it can be a bad idea to reference "pop science"

She is a quack, pure and simple. She is a member of the American Association of Nutritional Consultants, which is known to have allowed a "certified professional membership" to be purchased, not earnt, on the behalf of someone's dead cat.

Her credentials as a researcher have also been questioned. A professor in human nutrition offered her £1000 upon reading her Living Health book, to prove that she is a scientist perfoming research and studies. The money is still on the table. The professor also had her husband, a yank lawyer, on the phone claiming his comments were defaming her, the professor told him to sue, and strangley, he's still waiting for the lawsuit, I wonder why.

It is interesting, as others have pointed out, that she looks like a dried up prune, perhaps it's something to do with her diet, maybe following the crap (pun certainly intended) she dishes out to others isn't too healthy.

Pseudo-celebrity-science is all the UK public understands nowadays. Look at how may families refused the MMR vaccine as the press wrongly reported some dis-credited research linking it with autism.

I hope McKeith reads this and sues us all!

Its quite ironic that Channel 4 employs the quack and no longer airs it's excellent real science programme, Equinox.
