Has anyone seen that advert with the blob that spouts on about healthy eating? Stupid kid and mum thing, so patronising, they must think the country is full of idiots.

People should be able to eat what they want without silly adverts telling them what to do.

A lot of recent adverts are patronising, like the Global Warming one

Good on them, it doesn't harm to have them on the television and if it helps one person get healthy then it has done something! Thing is... no matter how much they dumb down the advert, you always have some muppet who goes 'I don't care'.

I don't see why anyone would choose to be so unhealthy, what is fun about that?

Eating rubbish, putting on weight not getting the right food to make the body work properly. Generally putting on weight and not moving about much. Being a potato.

Obviously you need to balance, but are people not sensible enough to create that balance? And if not, is it not their own fault anyway?

To the rest of us who do eat properly its like being told over and over to do something that we are already doing

Every advert tells you to do somthing, this is one of the better ones as its actually smart, not like insurance comparison websites.

This well probably cost you less.
And your body will be better for it.

Tell you what you eat loads of food thats really bad for you, then you eat healthy, you feel the difference. Feel so much better, couldn't imagine having like 40lbs of fat to carry around, would hate it.

Yes but the reason people don't balance is because lack of education, which is what the advert is doing. Whilst making it look appealing.

The only way to get someone to do something is by force, Ask Hitler. Not by silly adverts.

Well, from the look of you I'd say you're carrying a fair bit of added weight through your muscle growth and, as you know, muscle weighs more than fat.

But yeah, I do agree with you with regard to healthy eating.... you seriously do feel the difference when you change your eating habits.

Yeah i do, but you feel it less being heavier but in shape.

I tried eating terrible after coming off my diet, done it for 5 days, choclate bars mcdonalds and that, i was seriously feeling tired and just generally **** it drained my energy.

Straight away stopped it, fat was put on my straight away which i got rid of asap.
Even if you dont eat great, should try to be healthy to some degree.

I feel it myself too if I don't eat well and gorge on shiŁte. Wrecks your system and the problem with saturated fat is that your body never knows when it's eaten enough of it, so you can become addicted to eating rubbish very quickly. Takes an effort to eat well initially but after a week or so you don't miss the sugar and fat.

But yeah, all I'm saying is that you're probably putting a bit extra into urself to bulk up and you always have to be careful that you don't go overboard with it.
