I felt sorry for jo she lost 10 stone her heart was in right place but she should let her hubby come to terms with how he wants to loose weight himself not force him to do food diary and not eat what he wants, we all know its got to come from within not one influence from outside can make you in fact I think it can push you other way and rebel

I do think it had a valid point a lot of marriages don't survive massive weightloss sad as it is, iv not had this myself as not married and don't often dte at this kind of weight because I seem to meet chubby chasers and feeders lol so im gona wait , what the program also doesn't say is a lot of marriages end in divorce regardless of weightloss

Here all the time.....
These programs are always on the entertainment side rather than the factual unbiased side, so it can be hard to wade through the extra's. A couple of things did stand out for me.

The size 6 lady that didn't get married, they had been on holiday and were 'good friends', so where did the toddler come from...... ?

The therapy lady, where to start, forcing her husband to eat platefuls of cold tomato pasta (gagging) and to keep a food diary seemed like the tip of the controlling iceberg. I'd divorce her on principal.

I think I'm still the same grumpy realist. My other half can eat & dink what likes. I am not his keeper and he is responsible for whatever he puts in his face is the household motto. Oh yeah, and keep off my size SIX knickers. :D

I missed this only to be told by my hubby it's okay I recorded it so we could watch it later on..mmmm is he trying to tell me something? :rotflmao: He married me 33yrs ago when at my skinniest. He has never criticised my weight even in the most heated of arguments and has seen me through thick and thin and thick again. He gets as excited as I do with every milestone I hit and puts up with my constant WLS wittering. His reward is he gets a new woman at the end of this .... Me. ....Not my words but his :)

i bought my own extender belt so I didn't have to ask, I took it on holiday this year, not only did I not need it, I could tighten the belt by miles and bring the table down.

I didn't watch the program, but I did once work in America. One weekend a gang of us went to Vegas and decided to take a flight over the grand canyon. Walking to the plane I stepped onto what I can only describe as a mini weighbridge, with my weight shown for my colleagues to see. I was mortified!
It was a small plane, so they needed to balance the weight in it, but it hadn't occurred to me that they would WEIGH me, much less do it publicly.
I've never been on a small plane since.

I went on a helicopter in Vegas over the canyon and I had to step on said weigh bridge! Lol
Luckily for me it only showed the person who checked us in. Who was very gracious and he said I didn't even have to pay the extra weight fee. Which was nice.

Also I did a 6 week honeymoon in July and took 17 flights! All but one I had to use a belt extender and the trays...god they're horrible. Incidentally it was air Tahiti on which I didn't have to use an extender.

Air New Zealand were fab, I didn't even have to say anything to them, the cabin crew just give you the wink and slyly slide one into your hand.

Quantas are horrible, they wouldn't even ask the man in front to lift his seat up while we ate, as my table wouldn't fully go down. They basically said suck it!

BA were the opposite, they woke the man up in front to make him move hehe!

Oh the fun of flying! I don't let it bloody stop me!
:) x
 
OMG it showed people getting stuck on rides. Me and my hubby got chucked off a ride in August at Drayton Manor. We were mortified and had to do the walk of shame past everyone in the queue and people were laughing....It ruined the day for us and we went home terrible really. I could get my belt on this year on the plane but the table was a no go!!

I haven't had this problem on planes, but have occasionally found car seat belts not generous enough. Embarrassing. :(
