I can't stand her but I find the program strangley compellng because of the absolute basket cases she get's on there. I also love the rebellious ones like the bloke on the other night who had what effectively was his last supper, a double cheese and bacon toasty for breakfast. She isn't a real Dr and some of her methods, as a bit of an amateur nuritionist myself, seem very odd. She is basically a bully with a poo fixation, however the results are usually good but like others above I doubt if anyone continues with the regeme afterwoods it's just too extreme. Anyone can lose weight and get fit but staying that way is what is difficult, it takes a major lifestyle change and that is very difficult indeed. On these extremem regemes soner or later people crack and revert to large doner kebab and chips!
