Re: If I See That WW Commerical 1 More Time..

Mine is where the Parents are making dinner and the kids won't eat....especially the one where the Mother is chasing the kid around yelling "ONE MORE BITE!!"...

While I like Marie Osmond, I can not stand all the Nutri System commercials.  They are on over and over and over again on one particular channel that I watch.  And every time they are on, I shout, "SHUT UP MARIE", mainly to amuse myself.  I lost weight recently, without doing any program like that.  I did try Nutri System several years ago.  I did lose weight, but most of the food tasted terrible and was not even real food.  Of course, I put the weight back on once I stopped eating it.  There are much better ways to lose weight and keep it off.


I hate all the diet program ads, too.  At least Marie is a good spokesperson because you can see a difference in the before and after. As far as Oprah being the owner/spokesperson for WW, she is not a good example of what someone can expect from a program.  She doesn't look any different.  Just saying.......

I think it's the gogurt ad where the mother screams something about her child becoming independent. It's like fingernails on a blackboard to my ears. I can't change the channel fast enough.

Yep, that one irritates me too---seems kids are in charge of some homes now...and no wonder juvenile diabetes and obesity are real problems with kids today...

 

We had a balanced healthy meal. My parents made us sit at the table until we cleaned our plate and we got a lecture how fortunate we were because kids were starving in other places of the world....

I think the Peloton bike has every commercial beat , what kind of budget do they have for that thing , it is on every station and you tube every 5 minutes.

Yep, and I got the speech - "this isn't a cafeteria - either you eat what I make or you make your own dinner and CLEAN UP afterward". 

 

What I did appreciate though is if we were having something I really hated I'd go make a bowl of cereal.  At least my parents realized that we don't all have to like the same thing.

I get annoyed by so many since they run them into the ground by showing over and over!  I always mute or change the channel!  Espec on Marie with NutriSystems. OK we get it lol.

Re: If I See That WW Commerical 1 More Time..

I'll take it over all of the political ads we're getting hit with here before Super Tuesday. Last night one candidate had 4 minutes of ads in one 6 minute commercial break. One of the ads was three minutes long (it went on so long I rewound and timed it), then there was a 10-second spot for Bull, then there was another one-minute ad for the same candidate. It's ridiculous.

 

I'm not going to comment at all on actual politics, I just really want the barrage of ads to be over, at least for a few months.
