Well, I did end up watching this and I pretty much agree with everyone else:

Julie Goodyear was a big surprise, I also thought she would have been a bit of a diva, but she seems a good sport.

The darts player - OMG - he seems like a really nice bloke and things have got seriously out of hand but c'mon 25 bottles of beer. I bet he doesn't even feel the effects. I hope to God that he can lose weight and begin to feel comfortable with himself. 19 stone overweight is just unthinkable!

Tina whatever - I don't really like her anyway, she does GMTV and she gets on my nerves there. She comes across as a some kind of a maneater but I think she is really a sad, lonely spinster. I did feel sorry for her though when she was talking about her mum, but that sympathy was lost when she prattled on about getting Harvey's phone number........AS IF!!!

Lizzie - well, she hasn't changed at all has she? She is a foul-mouthed, ignorant whatever. She does not deserve air-time, she is an embarrassment to her kids and by God, the husband is not much better is he?

Aldo - Ahh, Claire, I like him too. He seems such a lovable kind of guy and really doesn't look that overweight at all. And the fact that he can cook makes him even more sexy!!

Paul Ross - Another surprise here, I usually don't really like him, but again he came across quite well and seems again, down to earth.

Ken - oooh, now here is where I will be switching off, sorry, but funny he ain't!

Kim - She has huge BOOBS, I think I would be getting a breast reduction, she could lose a couple of stone by just doing that!!!!

Am I alone here... I think Aldo Zilli is good looking I don't think he needs to worry much about his weight. I much prefer a man with a little bit of meat on him than some cheekboned muscular "so called" hunk. Im all for being fit but don't think that goes hand in hand with being thin. My husband plays football every week (until recently as he had a nose op) and goes to gym during his lunch every day at work. He is not skinny though, he has a bit of a tummy, and I find his stomach most sexy! :wub:
I agree that theres nothing wrong with Aldo Zilli, other than having a totally shallow girlfriend who says she would stop fancying him "if he got too fat" - nice girl eh? :huh:
Lizzie Bardsley was as expected - opinionated, loud, inarticulate and wont take constructive critisism. I dont expect her to last the course.

Julie Goodyear was slightly better than I expected her to be, she is an OTT hasbeen admittedly, but she seemed fairly calm.

Kym Mazelle - never heard of her but her knockers alone must weigh seven stone !
Andy Fordham, the darts player - god almighty, please let him lose loads of weight, its so scary to watch him labouring for breath even when standing still !
Paul Ross - talentless tosspot, riding on the coat tails of his brother. And looking more like Russell Grant every time I see him. Still, at least he wont be boring.
Ken Morley - wow he had piled the weight on. Seemed a good laugh didnt he?
Last but not least :-
Tina Baker - words failed me at first with this woman, but then I rallied lol. She is pretentious, silly, irritating, annoying, silly, giggly, coy and totally totally unfunny ! Really, someone ought to tell her to drop the "I want your phone number Harvey" joke - its crap.
Out of all the "celebs" I found Tina Baker the most aggravating. Hopefully someone will have slapped her by next week.

I don't think there's anything wrong with saying that. She didn't say she wouldn't love him if he got fat.

That fat darts player is disgusting - his body and person is purely sheer ignorance, laziness and greed. 25 bottles of beer a day!!!!!!!!!!WTF!!! No wonder he is so FAT. He has to loose me twice [and probably Bella three times] - when you look it like that it puts it in persepctive!!!

LOL Pandora and Kim Mazelle's knockers!!!:laugh: :laugh: They are not puppies they are more like baby walrus's!!

And words fail me when it comes to that gobby, scrounging, opinionated, thick piece of scum called Lardsley - what a bluddy disgrace to human society!!

But I am going to watch it - and I am enjoying it.

Trique

07-01-2005, 04:56 PM

The woman from wife swap OMG words fail me - almost. What an ungrateful cow, with a massive chip on her fat shoulders. She has been given an amazing oppertunity, why not seize it? Answering back to Harvey like that isn't on! Paul Ross had the right idea. Listen to Harvey and do what he says!
Julie Goodyear was a surprsie. I thought she'd be more gobby.
Darts player Andy, well never mind his weight! What the hell kinda state is his liver going to be in?
That Tina woman- just shameful.

I think that there could be a very dangerous situation with the mix of guests.

I can just see Aldo mistaking Andy for a Wiltshire Boar and ramming a scaffolding pole us his fat ass, shoving an apple in his mouth and spit roasting him...
Can you imagine all the fat that would drip off :)

I'm sorry but to get into Andy's sorry state really is disgraceful. I can't bear looking at him.
M

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Very funny, Pan.

Like you, I find it hard to feel sorry for Andy, I cannot understand why anyone could be 19 stone overweight, a few pounds, even a few stone I can get my head round but 19 stone is truly disgraceful.

Andy's total weight of 30 stone - my whole family's weight put together don't even that!

It is going to take him months, maybe even years to even lose what is required. The thing is he comes across as a lovely bloke and I truly hope that one day he will be able to lose what is required, but it is going to be a long, hard slog for him.

Critique

Well I think if I could only watch one show out of this or Celeb Big Bruv I would choose this one.

I actually like Paul Ross. I liked him before I ever saw him because some time back he used to host the early morning show on Talk UK (now Talk Sport) with Carol McGiffin (yeah ex wife of the ginger minger) and they were absolutely brilliant as a double act. They used to make me laugh out loud and that was an achievement as I was going through bad depression at the time due to family tragedy.

The wife swap "celeb" is only what I would expect. Wasn't she the one that gave up and went home cos she was worried that her equally foul mouthed husband was getting it on with the woman she swapped with?

And I pretty much agree with what everyone else has said about the others.

I didn't watch any of the other Fit Clubs religiously - just caught bits now and again but I really think I will go out of my way to watch this one.

That Bardsley woman did nothing to change my mind about her last night. She is completely obnoxious without one redeeming feature. She's an ungracious, rude pig of a woman. I don't know what the doctor did to deserve her saying she hadn't followed his diet and didn't want him to think her weight loss was anything to do with him. Grrrrr. :mad1:

Andy, oh Andy. Half a pound? That's pathetic. All that guff about how he could've built up muscle to account for a lack of weight loss. That was obviously just to make him feel better. There's no excuse for doing so badly.

Eternity

12-01-2005, 11:10 AM

If someone of Andy's size had stuck to it, he should have lost at least 10lbs in that week, 1/2lb is pathetic, a good wee for him would have ditched that much.

Is he going to follow in the lines of that Rick fella who was massive and a waste of time?

MariaRob

12-01-2005, 11:19 AM

I thought Fit Club yesteday was BORING! I was losing interest and flicking channels. Dont know if its all the hoo ha in Celeb BB that has eclipsed it. The same happened for me on What the Butler Saw, which was hilarious but with the IACeleb it got forgotton about. Anyway what is interesting about seeing Ken Morley (someone send him to Specsavers, those glasses were trendy in the 80s) playing ping pong with his son? - (snore). Lizzie Bardsley is just plain obnoxious - who said she is great tv?? She is not amusing or witty or endearing in any shape or form. She is plain ignorant and just being unpleasant for the sake of it. She should be kicked off pronto. As for this "rivalry" between Aldo and Paul - well who CARES? The darts player is a total disgrace, with all that body fat you could have dropped pounds the first week if you had bothered, but half a pound on that frame? He seems an ameniable enough guy but some people you just cant help. I doubt if I will tune in next week as I am past caring about any of them!!

Pandora

12-01-2005, 02:23 PM

It surely has to be physically impossible to only drop half a pound on a 30stone frame, after trebling your exercise and sticking to the diet, as Andy Fordham says he has?

Either he has something medically wrong with him that prevents him losing weight or he is lying.

I agree it was a bit boring, and really doesnt deserve an hours slot. They could fit in what they need to in half an hour.

Lizzie Bardsley is proving that she really is a horrible, mouthy, bullying old cow, and yet again the terminably bloody silly Tina Baker, was way way OTT in the studio, rolling her eyes, trying to be funny, jumping up and down, and acting her shoe size not her age ...........

jaycee

12-01-2005, 04:14 PM

I'll be watching this tonight on ITV2..........I knew I wouldn't be able to sneak a peak at the thread tho!

HALF A POUND! I did better than that myself last week & I didn't stick to things hardly at all!

I wonder if he appreciates the danger to his health.........I mean, I know most people would realise that being 19 stone overweight would be a danger to your health but then most people would do something before they became 19 stone overweight. He did seem a bit apathetic about his weight last week, I'm not surprised he made little effort but I would have thought just cutting his beer intake alone would shift a good portion.

Kym also sang with Soul II Soul on a couple of songs, very good they were too!

Disappointed in Andy - 1/2 pound! Even I could lose more than that in a week. It is pathetic, there was absolutely no excuse for this whatsoever. I don't know about him being a member of Celeb Fit Club, I think he should be joining Alcoholics Anonymous judging by the amount he drinks on a daily basis! It is incredible that he still alive! As Mr P pointed out, if he dropped his daily alchohol intake by a third, he would lose a stone in a month.

Did anyone hear him say that his record binge was 65 bottles of San Miguel beer in one night? Sixty bloody five !!!!!!!! How self indulgent, greedy and totally stupid !

I was so pleased for Andy with his 9 and half pound weight loss this week. But isn't it amazing how he's let himself go when you see what he looked like in his youth. I'd kind of imagined he must've been a chubby child.

Paul Ross was on the radio last week talking about Lizzy. He said she really is that awful (as if we were in any doubt) and has no redeeming features at all. He also said that Julie Goodyear's lovely.

Oh yes Mink! She had an argument with Paul which, to be fair, he started really. But she's so thick she gets herself into knots arguing and ends up making no sense whatsoever. :laugh:

She brought in her own dietician (a Chippendale) to help with her menu and he didn't even know that humus was made from chick peas - he said nuts. You wonder why she didn't just do that in the first place if she didn't want to fully participate in the programme.

LOL!! IS he related to Helen from Big Brother who thought that chickpeas were made from chickens? I am still bamboozled as why that ignorant species of scum is even there in the first place - celebrity....celebrity my A***!!

Well done to Andy, but like you Max I was kind of saddend to see him as a fit, young guy who was a complete shadow of what he is now. Surely his wife or friends could have said something to him though when he really started piling the pounds on. I do wish though that he would get that ridiculous haircut, it makes him look really prattish. He does come across as being a really nice fella and I wish him all the luck to lose the weight he so desprately needs to get rid off.

Lovin' this as well. Cheered for Andy with his 9lb weight loss this week, but as Dol says, he could lose a couple of pounds by shifting that mullet! Lizzie is unspeaklably vile and it's clear that she is about as popular as typhoid Mary amongst the others. My children remarked on her being the last to be chosen when the captains chose their teams, small wonder really, and I would have thought it pointless to use a diet formulated by a Chippendale unless you actually wanted to look like a Chippendale.

I saw a bit of this last week, but it's getting boring the last couple of series because they spend far too much time on the weigh in and not enough time on the events of the preceding week.

But what I really wanted to say has nothing to do with Celebrity Fit Club at all, but with Lizzy Bardsley and it isn't worth a thread all of its own.

I caught the last half of the Weakest Link on Saturday which was advertised as snobs v commoners (not in those words). One of the contestants was Lizzy, and blow me, if she wasn't as bright as a button. Not only did she manage to correctly answer historical, geographical and literary questions that I thought she wouldn't have a clue about, she was dead pan funny and went on to a much deserved win.

Her opponent in the final was Jodie Marsh who was as thick as two short planks - "Is England one of the Channel Islands?" And yet Jodie had a privileged upbringing and I would have thought plenty of opportunity for a good eduction. I was very surprised.

I think Andy lost 6lbs this week Pan and he's lost over a stone in total.

Ken lost weight too but they seem to think he's not taking it seriously, hence the telling off. He has got a very dry sense of humour that I think Harvey in particular fails to 'get' That is a fantastic effort from Andy (I agree with the verdict on the scary mullet, incidentally), thanks for letting me know Voicey.
As for Reg/Ken whatever, he does have a very tongue in cheek way of acting, which I dont find offensive in the least. If he is losing weight they shouldnt be telling him off.
Lizzie on the other hand IS offensive and bullying to boot, and should be told off for her attitude.
I know Harvey is tough but he doesnt have to act like a robot, devoid of humour or personality. It comes over as a caricature.

Did you see how Kim squealed like a stuck pig over her torn muscle - what a palava - I bet she hasnt had a child yet!

I know Harvey is tough but he doesnt have to act like a robot, devoid of humour or personality. It comes over as a caricature.
Actually Harvey surprised everyone by revealing a Sense Of Humour this week! He had had a bit of a stand up row with Paul Ross during the training day which resulted in Ross questioning Harvey's competence and Harvey swearing at Paul before stomping off.

Anyway, during Paul's weigh-in Harvey apologised for his language and said that although he hadn't liked what Paul had said, it was all water under the bridge and there were no hard feelings...he then went on to say, in dead pan fashion, that Paul's target weight loss this week would be 12lbs! It was a very funny moment and everyone laughed, including Paul.

MariaRob, I agree, Kim made an enormous amount of fuss over her injury, she was totally over the top. I noiced though that it didn't seem bad enough to stop her wearing a pair of high heeled sandles to her weigh-in!

Bella

WHo put on weight this week? I only seen the first 15 minutes, but before the break they said that one of them were in for a shock as they put on weight - please, please, please let it be Lizzie!!! She even turned up on This Morning yesterday and won Beat the Stylist! Our TV screens are no longer sacred from this witch!

It was Kim, she gained a pound - hahahaha. Swears she was "pushing it" in the gym, within the limitations of her injury but she still gained. All the rest did really well, most of them exceeding their target. I really, really wanted it to be that Lizzie woman too.

02-02-2005, 04:20 PM

Have you noticed that a few , i.e. Ken Morley are now beginning to look slimmer? I cant work out that Tina one, she is nearly 12 stones and not that tall so how come everyone is saying she is the right weight? That Kim must have cheated, there is no way with that excess body weight you would have gained in the first weeks unless you cheated. I thought it was a bit boring last night, we want more arguments!!!!

Bonsai

02-02-2005, 05:32 PM

I though Tina was 11 stone ... something, but i could be wrong.

They didnt say she was the right weight, just that she fell within the 'normal' guidelines. I think for her height she could be anywhere from about 9 stone to 12 stone and not be overweight. It was only over the 12 stone mark that she jumped into the overweight category.

Hi everyone!
As most of you seem not to know who Kym Mazelle is, you'll find below a summary of her biography

(The full biography is on her website *which I'm sure you can find by doing a search on Google if you're keen enough).

KYM initially found herself a job working at DJ International Records and subsequently met up with Marshall Jefferson who produced her first two singles, Taste My Love and I'm A Lover, both released in early 1988.
Later that year she had her first U.K. chart hit with Useless (I Don' Need You Now), and two months later in January 1989 her recording of Wait with Robert Howard had a ten-week chart-run.
That same year KYM toured Europe with Ten City and also secured another couple of hits, Got To Get You Back, and Love Strain. She also released her first album, Crazy, on Syncopate Records.
KYM chalked up a further three chart hits during 1990, Was That All It Was, a re-mix of her debut hit Useless (I Don't Need You Now) and Missing You. The latter recording teamed KYM with Soul II Soul, with whom she co-wrote the song, and also worked with on their world tour.

In 1991 KYM signed to EMI's Parlophone label and released a new album, Brilliant!!, which included remixes of many of the songs featured on the Crazy album. Classics like Useless, Love Strain and Was That All It Was were given the remix treatment by top U.S. mixers David Morales, C&C Music Factory and Steve Hurley, and the album also included the hit single No One Can Love You More Than Me (originally recorded by The Weather Girls) which featured Jocelyn Brown on backing vocals.

In 1993 KYM started writing with The Rapino Brothers and it resulted in yet another hit single, Love Me The Right Way, which was a hit throughout Europe, as well as being a club smash in the United States.

In 1994 KYM returned to the U.K. charts via two duets recorded with her old pal Jocelyn Brown. A revamp of the old Barbara Streisand and Donna Summer hit No More Tears (Enough Is Enough), produced by the top team of Mike Stock and Matt Aitken, and was followed by another Stock-Aitken production, Gimme All Your Lovin' (previously a hit for ZZ Top).

KYM has continued to record and perform throughout Europe, and 1995 saw the release of her European pop-dance hit Love Me Or Leave Me, written and recorded with the Italian production team Kamasutra.

The following year, KYM MAZELLE was features on the highly successful soundtrack to 1996's Romeo+Juliet with Young Hearts Run Free. This song was riveted to the charts for weeks.

1996. KYM MAZELLE recorded Big Baby. MJ Cole's first ever remix in the U.K. Garage style, this track blew up along with its re-pressed counterpart Quality released in 1997.

1998. Kym Mazelle is living proof that you can't keep a true talent down. Having recorded many of the last decade's club anthems, KYM MAZELLE returns to the dance scene this summer with her new single A Place In My Heart. This new song is shaping up to be yet another hit, and features great mixes from Todd Terry, Nick Nice, Dj Phenix, Jerk work (Raul Rincon & Dip T Jones) and a UK exclusive mix from ATM, which are sure to be massive in the clubs and on radio.

In 2000, KYM MAZELLE is back as the lead vocal for Sunray on a high-flying magnificent slice of pure disco bliss called Perhaps. It's a remake of an old Doris Day song. KYM and company turned it into one of this season's hottest club contenders. In addition to a state-of-the-art Almighty remix, there's also a hot and housey Junior Jack remix for your consideration. Both treatments are hot, and both let KYM's spectacular vocal fireworks shine throughout.

Drum & Bass jazzman Peshay has teamed up with Flytronix, house gurus Farley & Healer and soulful vocalist KYM MAZELLE to rock the house on Truly, released on January 31, 2000. The Peshay & Flytronix hard step mix is tuffer than hardened steel with an industrial strengh rolling bass line. Flashes of light are added with a bouncy percussion part, orchestra stabs, guitar and vocal samples. Terry Farley and Pete Healer are on the case with two vocal mixes and two deep dubs, all given a fresh deep house touch in their own inimitable style. Rich sounding kick drums pound beneath KYM MAZELLE's heartfelt vocal, synths bubble and the tune pulses and grooves in sensual abandon.

2003. What a return! Our diva KYM MAZELLE is on top again with another masterpiece! Feel Like Dancin' is a quality house bit produced by the Italian duo HOUSE BROS. (Composed by PAGANY & MELEGA) with hot lyrics that celebrate the house music. This new single introduces the original versions by PAGANY himself and more soulful mixes courtesy by the SOLSONIK guys SANT & MATTEO ESSE.

THE WAIT IS OVER! KYM MAZELLE's long awaited brand spanking new studio album THE PLEASURE IS ALL MINE is out in June 2004 on Stefano Cecchi Records.
THE PLEASURE IS ALL MINE sees KYM working with the Electronic genius Roberto Intrallazzi (The F.P.I. Project) in collaboration with Luca Provera to produce 12 stunning tracks which are a collection of some of KYM's Greatest Hits like YOUNG HEARTS RUN FREE (Romeo & Juliet soundtrack) and SEARCHING FOR THE GOLDEN EYE plus covers of her favourite House and Dance Classics like LOVE MAGIC, TEARS, ON MY OWN and YOU DON'T KNOW ME revisited in a refined and innovative electro-pop sound.

Gosh thanks Will! :) everything you ever wanted to know about Kym!

back O/T.

I think this bunch are much easier to watch than last time and that is mainly due to the odious footballers wives bloke and that little twonk Freddie Starr not being there.

The ones I'm watching with interest are Julie Goodyear and "that fat bloke" as me and my son call him. I wish Andy all the best on this plan cos I think he seems like such a cool bloke and it would be great to see him approaching a weight that isn't going to kill him prematurely.

I still can't stand Tina or Liz (two awful women) at least they're awfulness is cancelled out by Julie and Kym who never fail to make me smile, especially Julie who I was prepared to dislike!Ah yes Dol, who could forget the stirring little gobsh!te that was Freddy Starr and the 110 year old John "footballers wives" Forgeham - dressed in his leather trousers, unbuttoned to the waist shirt and all that gold eh?? My only regret was that Forgeham wasnt crushed to death underneath some gym equipment ...... Vile pair of total munters who thought they were Gods gift. Where are you now lads eh? :laugh:

This week on Fit Club they told Tina Baker that she needn't come back next week as she wasnt now officially overweight. Im praying that she takes them up on it. The woman is forever shrieking loudly, laughing raucously at inappropriate moments, or running about doing "jazz hands" and acting like a child. She is an incredibly annoying waste of oxygen.

I've missed this for a few weeks.
I've missed it but NOt if you know what I mean.
I can't stand watching "Reg" holdsworth and Lizzie, the pair of them make me cringe.
Seems Julie isn't as bad as she is made out to be then.
I can not believe that Andy is only 30 (if I heard correctly) I though he was in his 40's! he looks it.

I was thinking back to last years Fit Club and remembering that as "The Forgeham" starting losing weight, he started looking like one of those wrinkly faced dogs - a shah pei is it? He used to stand on the scales dressed in those awful leather trews, looking like someone had slowly been letting the air out of him.:laugh:

Is anyone still watching this?

I dunno what Ken 'Reg Holdsworth' Morley is up to, so far, over the last 6 weeks (or whatever it's been) he has lost a grand total of.....1lb :unsure: Needless to say no one is very impressed with him! Lizzie 'The Gob' Bardsley excelled herself yesterday by being even more obnoxious than usual, she always has an excuse that woman, and it's never her fault. She has managed to miss her target for the last 3 weigh-in's but won't be told how to make things better :rolleyes:

Julie let go with a bit of her inner Diva last night, by refusing to turn out to support her team during their work out, and ended up giving up her captaincy to Aldo.

Talking of Aldo, can I just say that I actually quite fancy him! :blush:

Everyone else did ok and Andy managed to lose another 10lbs which is fantastic :)

Next weigh-in 2 weeks time
Ooooh Voicey ! Im still watching it. I agree about The Bardsley and the rent a gob mouth of hers. She just will NOT listen, or take constructive criticism will she?
Julie Goodyear on the weighing scales was so funny. Harvey was winding her up and she had this terribly layyydeelike voice on, being over the top polite in a clipped voice all the time giving him daggering looks with black laser beam eyes ! I was wetting meself!
Ken Morley - what is he on? The judges appear to have given up on him.
Andy Fordham - been on a big darts tournament and had a birthday and yet STILL managed to lose a huge 10lbs. This guy is really trying hard.
Aldo Zilli - you can really see the weight loss with him, and yep Voicey, he is one very attractive man.
Tina Baker - was it me or was all the fuss about being frightened of getting on a trampoline, all one great big attention seeking, gosh-arent-I-brave, over the top drama??? One or two of the slebs smiles faded slightly when, after being on the trampoline for about two minutes, she "overcame" her fear almost instantly and starting doing fancy moves. Call me cynical but it was a load of utter codswallop and Tina Baker should be ashamed for thinking anyone would buy it. I cant stand the woman anyway.

I thought Dale handled Lizzie - mid tantrum - rather well, though he is a kind and gentle man, though is worryingly getting more orange by the week ....

I agree, Kimmy. She did deserve more praise than she got - in fact she didn't get any. She's done really well and I can understand her feeling that she's lacking a bit of support.

I'm so pleased for Andy.

Hm, they were a bit hard on Lizzie wernt they? But I think she is just an obnoxious cow who is disliked by all around her. If she wont do the recommended diet and just shouts at everyone on the programme why on earth dont they just chuck her off?

Yep our Julie was acting very Diva like, I couldnt quite get my head around that one, why did she go into one with Harvey? I think perhaps is showing her true colours.

I thought the trampene busness was embarrasingly pathetic. All this crying to the camera becasue she fell off at age 13, then basking in the applause because surprise surprise after 5 minutes she had "conquered" her 20 year fear and could show off. Tina has done herself no favours by appearing on this programme, she has shown herself to be constantly foolish and annoying.

Kimmy, Maxy and Maria - noooooooooooooo Lizzie Bardsley enducing sympathy??? NOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Lizzie is one of life's thorns. She is pretty clued up, she is smarter than people give her credit for - where she falls down is that she 'thinks' she knows best. What she actually knows is to argue for the sheer sake of it. If she kept her mouth shut and ACCEPTED what these experts are telling her - she would get a far better deal.

OK she has 8 kids, OK her life is not quite the celeb life the others have, OK she has a good for nuthin' husband and OK she has the biggest gob this side of Texas - BUT she does not listen, she does not observe and she does not learn any lessons whatsoever!! She is one of these people that beleives the world owes HER a living. And this really winds me up.

Ok rant over - REg Holdsworth is a waste of space - he is still trying to be funny and he is so unfunny, I wonder if he knows this??

Hey leave Tina Baker alone - she is cool - she has lost the weight, the trampoline thing was obviously a mega fear of hers - remember Tiggs vomit fear?? It is real to her. And she does look stunning.

Andy Fordham - I gave him a hard time initially - and rightly so - he became a fat, obese, lazy whale - and now he is really trying - good on him and the best of luck.

Bet Lynch - slapper!

Kym Mazelle [truthfully - did anyone read all of Will's post??] - I like her - I can't beleive anyone has norks as big as hers, they are a programme in themselves - amazing, but I can empathise totally with her - I put on about 5lbs pre-period - so get off her back Harvey!

Aldo - girls, girls, girls??? Aldo - fanciable??? He is lovely to look at, and a darned fine chef, and probably has pots of dosh - but fanciable - you all just want to be fed fine cuisine - don't you?? Go on admit it??

Paul Ross - nothing much to say.

Thats it for me - oh and just to say - yeah I am still watching it!!

Bob

17-02-2005, 05:46 PM

I wondered how long it would be before Julie came over all Bet Lynch :laugh:

I understand her not wanting to be captain, but she could have supported the team.

I too felt a bit sorry for Lizzie as she had lost some weight, 5lbs in two weeks is not bad going at all. But she does need to keep her mouth zipped and listen to what the experts are saying to her, it's real privilige to be there getting all that free help and advice

And can't agree with you Pan about Tina. I used to trampoline and when you have an accident it sets you back weeks, you have to go through all your progressions again. I know someone who could triple summersault and then one time she landed badly and nearly took half her face off. She couldn't go back on for months and then she had to basically start from scratch. Those moves that Tina was doing weren't fancy at all, but two of those basic moves. So i was realy pleased for her that she got back up there after all that time. And she is no longer over weight which is fantastic.

I think Kym looks good even though she is overweight. 50% of her weight is fat though! Gosh thats an awful lot. I got measured on the scales at the gym, don't know how good they are but I have 35% fat, it's supposed to be 29% for my age, but even that sounds like a lot!

Dolores

17-02-2005, 06:31 PM

I think Kym looks good even though she is overweight. 50% of her weight is fat though!

50% of her weight is tits!!!! an absolutely fascinating pair!

I'm rooting for Andy, Kym, Aldo and Paul.

i really like this programme - although I think Lizzie should be shot and Ann Widdecombe shouldnt be sat there like the "great know it all". having said that I do like Ann and her honesty is so appealing in a politician, but I really don't know why she is sat there passing judgement!

MariaRob

18-02-2005, 10:03 AM

Totally agree Dolores, I too like Ann as she is so blunt but I dont really know what she is doing there as a judge.

Pandora

19-02-2005, 03:54 PM

Well I think we have to agree to disagree on Tina Baker, Im still convinced it was a huge attention seeking put up job.

I think Anne Widdecombe is on the judges panel because she lost so much weight during the last Fit Club, but she is a bit blunt sometimes.....

Julie Goodyear couldnt keep up the "pleasant" act for long could she? The huffy diva in her is alive and kicking !

Kim's breasts are the most humungous things Ive ever seen !

and finally The Bardsley .... why on earth does she keep using the "YOU try having eight kids...." argument when every single time she uses, people quite rightly point out that it was HER choice to have them, and please to stop using them as an excuse to beat people over the head with !

I was listening to LBC radio on the way to work this morning and the presenter was saying that Ken Morely has gone missing! I thought it was a joke at first, but the guy insisted that he really has gone missing.

Paul Ross was on the line and explained what had happened:
After the weigh-in on Sunday Andy Fordham and Ken Morely went out for a few drinks, by the sounds of it Ken was trying to keep up with Andy on the drinking front. Anyway after a lot to drink Ken went off to drink.
They were all supposed to meet up the next morning for a jog, but when Ken didn't turn up Harvey went to his room with a camera crew, Ken was found face-down naked except for one sock! - Ken told Harvey to go away (using other, less polite words) and Harvey told him to get in the shower and see them in the reception.
Ken didn't turn up, but he was seen climbing out of a window and running off with a paper bag on his head - he hasn't been seen since!!

I thought the show was pretty boring last night - is it the end of the series soon? I think this one has run it's course.

Oh, I nearly forgot - Paul Ross said he did the show because he wanted to lose a few pounds and because he was paid £15k

I thought they were really hard on Andy. I know he hadnt hit his target, but he still lost about 7 Ibs which is tremendous.

As for Lizzie - words fail me. I dont think ive ever seen anyone so obnoxious in my entire life.

16-03-2005, 04:24 PM

Is anyone still watching this? I gave up weeks aog, but I turned over at the end of last night to see Lizzie still giving it all that!!! She has failed to reach her target weight loss in 3 weeks and the doctor had gone round to her house to find her cupboards and fridge still full of junk, she was as obnoxious and as stubborn as ever. Why on earth was someone like this ever allowed to be born? :ohmy:

I still cannot understand what her celeb status is to justify her being there - she is a jumped up sponger, who is going on my list to the PM Cockney to her blindfolded and up against the wall!!! :wallbash:

Pandora

16-03-2005, 05:47 PM

I cant believe she announced she and her husband are going to America at the end of April ! My god, they are on a nice little earner arent they? :ranting:

As for her constant excuses about not losing weight on a programme that you have joined in order TO lose weight, well how typical of her. Take the money and dont bother trying is Lizzies Motto IMO. They mustve offered her about ten grand to appear and shes not even trying.

She ought to bring out a book, "Lardsleys Book of Lame Excuses".

I wish production companies would STOP using this woman. She is everything that the authorities are trying to stamp out - ie, Loud, ill mannered, a sponger, has had 8 kids and uses them as an excuse for not doing anything, shes an asthmatic who smokes (!), she is five foot tall - huge and basically is a walking advert to anyone watching to play the benefits system. Her house/kitchen were really nice, better than one of my friends houses where both of them work all the hours God sends and they still cant afford a kitchen half the size as Lardleys !!!

Get her off our tellys !

Bob

16-03-2005, 06:01 PM

I'm stil watching when I can.
That Lizzie must have made a lot of money as her house (kitchen) looked really nice, I thought they were on benefit? I thought the amount of sweets she had in there was suicide, for her kids!
Andy is an alcoholic if I can only promise to try cut down, that amount of alcohol is leathle no matter what his size, I'm surprised they didn't address the issue earlier (maybe they did)
And well done Tina!
I'm a little heavier than she was when she first started and I also would like to be 10 stone, if she can do ............might take be a little longer than ten weeks though, but I'm very impressed with her

Dolores

16-03-2005, 06:09 PM

Andy is a bit of a desparate case isn't he. i mean 2-3 BOTTLES of wine a day! Blimey O'Riley! He says he's not an alky cos he never craves it, I doubt very much he's let himself be in a position where he's unabel to have a drink. I reckon a week off the drink and we might see a moody, irritable Andy. He must be permanently pickled? Do you think he ever manages to get it up? or am I being too crude and personal!

As for Lizzy - vile vile vile woman - why is she being given air time. Sadly she is not the only person in the UK like this, there are lots of this type of person around. someone who thinks they know everything, never listens to anyone else and thinks that having 8 kids on benefit is something to be proud of! .....and if she mentions her feckign asthma one more time I'll scream! There's always a reason why she CANT do something and never a reason why she CAN.

As for Aldo - gorn off him! Basically a shallow macho tw@, style over substance I think - and that blooming cherry suit - how awful is that!

Ken's starting to look a bit peaky isn't he! He's done enough bless him!

Bet Lynch - what FABULOUS legs she's got, every week on the giant weighing scales I admire them!

...and can Dale get orangier or more sycophantic? maybe!

It's the last one next week, I've enjoyed the series and except for Bardsley haven't found anyone grossly annoying or obnoxious.

Yes I agree that there is no way she is a size 14. I am eleven and a half stones and am taller than Kim but take a 16/18.

I also TOTALLY agree with Pandora that production companies should not use this woman, what kind of a message is it sending out - that you can scrounge off society, behave like a pig and make a "career" out of it, the whole world has gone totally off its head.

I missed it this week - did the doctor finally say something the Andy about his drinking? Did I hear one the programme that he once drank something like 60 bottles of Pils in an evening? I'd have thought that was something to keep quiet about - not to boast about!
Yes the doc showed Andy two pictures, one of a healthy liver and one belonging to an alcoholic.
Andy has now swapped his 25 bottles of beer a day to three bottles of wine a day. The man needs help. And he's getting it, but lord he has to help himself

It inspired me! I thought Tina baker did brilliant and really deserved the miss fit 2005 title!
I'm the same height as Tina but weigh a bit more than she did at the start. I'm pretty sure I could never get down to 9 stone 12 like she did, but I'd like to get to 10 1/2. Only thing that would worry me is that I'm quite small chested and wouldn't want to end up with no boobs.She seems to have kept hers so I would like to know exactly how she did it!

Pandora

29-03-2005, 11:32 PM

Its a shame you cant pick and choose where you lose weight from, for instance Tina Baker has lost weight off her face too quickly and looks quite old now. Yes she did well to lose two and half stone, and the dress she wore tonight was gorgeous - but I still think she is a silly, frivolous woman with the most annoying voice on telly.

And folks - dont panic - its official; the dietician has confirmed that Lizzie Bardsley is still morbidly obese ....... :devil:

Dolores

30-03-2005, 07:33 AM

And folks - dont panic - its official; the dietician has confirmed that Lizzie Bardsley is still morbidly obese ....... :devil:

and isn't she just!! She is someone who will go through life with no humility and no desire to better herself or listen to anyone else. I wonder if she has many friends?

I thought it was a lacklustre series although I have enjoyed it. i thought Bet did really really well, it's very hard to lose weight when you are older. I thought Aldo looked a complete tw@!! and about 10 years older and a lot less sexy than he did at the beginning (or by the half way stage).

They all did well, except the two who needed the most help, Andy and Lizzie. Andy may be a nicer person that Lizzie but he's obviously got a drink problem that needs to be addressed before the food one I would say. 4-5 bottles of wine a day (even if it's only for a week) is incredible ...but he really doesn't seem to bother about the amount he drinks does he?

Thought Havey was a bit tough on Ken when he said he predicted Ken would put the weight back on! he may be right, but I still thought it was unnecessary.
