MASTERCHEF star Greg Wallace has lost more than two and a half stone by dieting and says he looks and feels 100 per cent better.
He’s very happy with his transformation, but he’s complained about “rude” strangers who taunt him and send him photographs on Twitter of their dinner. It’s a childish, unfunny joke but it seems to amuse the terminally stupid.
The same mindset appeared to afflict a group of people last week at a WeightWatchers meeting venue in Horwich. An adjoining room was full of what seemed to be a wake, basically because everyone wore black and got noisier as the evening wore on and the alcohol flowed.
A couple of people from this gathering, however, felt it was very “funny” to pop out of their room and noisily eat crisps at the WeightWatchers’ meeting. Some deluded soul even brought out pieces of bread. The effect on the meeting was just irritation at the selfish behaviour of a minority.
Unfortunately, it just shows how the brainless operate after a few bevies – they revert to being five and giggling over daft things. It also illustrates how jealous people become of others trying to take control of their lives and doing something positive about getting in shape.
Greg Wallace – just like local slimming group members – worked hard to lose weight and turn his life around. He didn’t find answers at the bottom of a pint glass or filling his face with crisps. So think on.
