if the other girl (not kate) wants to lose weight fast, then she should try atkins, because u lose the water weight REALLY fast. i am not supporting the atkins diet (i think it's stupid) but then again they're doing stupid things anyways.
Sometimes I can't stand Kate, but I honestly wish I had her voice. Mine is pretty low for a girl but I really like hers. Personally I think the worst person in this documentary is Ben. He is super unsupportive of Louise :(
@Vodkakickgirl21 Same here. But I already once cut my diet to 900-1000 kcal a day. It's easy to do, but after that there's a risk of binging. I know people who eat 900 kcal a day, but a lot of transfats. Like 9 milky way bars a day (on has 98 kcal). They feel good because they eat something nice and just 900 kcal. But the transfats in the bars and so unhealthy
As a woman your recommended intake is 2000kcal, if you cut that down to 90% (1800) that is a diet you will lose weight on and most important not gain again. It is a healthy way. 7000 kcal you do not eat, add up to 1kg you will lose. So approx. 1kg a month. 1800 kcal is 3 full meals and now and then some candy. I did it and it worked. My diet is now very healthy since I cut out all the junk food. It takes a while to internalize the new way of life, but it makes happy :)
@bluapixie No, every woman does not need 2000 calories at all. It completely depends on your weight and height, and personal metabolism. If I ate 2000 a day I would surely gain weight - I am 5'2 and 114 pounds. If i want to maintain, I must eat about 1,400 a day. To lose, I eat 1000-1200.
@bluapixie No, every woman does not need 2000 calories at all. It completely depends on your weight and height, and personal metabolism. If I ate 2000 a day I would surely gain weight - I am 5'2 and 114 pounds. If i want to maintain, I must eat about 1,400 a day. To lose, I eat 1000-1200.
And losing 2kg a month is painfully slow. It isn't necessary to lose weight that slowly if you know what you're doing.
Since when is 1200 less than half recommended intake for grown women? I though recommended intake was 2000 (which is stupid btw, because women can have such a different range of weight, height and activity levels + genetics and everything.)
the fact she did a raw food diets to crash diet pisses me off because the raw foods diet can be perfectly healthy IF DONE CORRECTLY... no raw foodist would survive on 1200 kcal a day =\
Kate does have an unhealthy attitude, but it just proves how more susceptible people can be sucked in by crash diets and diet fads, and develop eating disorders. There are a lot of young girls like Kate out there, tbh
Kate always really irked when I watched this documentary. Especially when she said "I'm quite the anorexic now" like she is proud of it or making fun or something. I know she was probably just drunk but it really annoyed me, as someone who was diagnosed with AN.
i hate that stupid bitch. she is trying so hard to get an eating disorder when others are trying so hard to get rid of one. who says that "im quite the anorexic now"?!?!?!?! what the fucking fuck. the other girl is fine but her boy friend is a bit inconsiderate.
I agree about her boyfriend being a tosser. Most young guys I know are like that though - they cannot comprehend the pressure of weight on women - so they dismiss and belittle the women for it, or (like this boyfriend) blame the woman for it.
I think Kate's simply a victim of the experiment - she actually becomes anorexic, and speaks and thinks as an anorexic does. There's that "thin pride" thinking - confidence through some imagined membership.
I don't know why people keep saying that Kate ruins the purpose of the documentary. She shows how easy it is to fall into eating disordered behaviors from crash dieting. I thought the meaning of the documentary was to show how unhealthy severe dieting is and Kate just proves it more.
@AnnaAdmiring but I think Kate was very enthusiastic about it to begin with...the way she talked about herself, "fat Kate" and "skinny Kate", when she clearly wasn't fat. I think she did this to lose weight and not just to show how unhealthy it is, and I also think that the experiment didn't trigger an eating disorder cause she seems to have had one beforehand.
@thebedrockof to be fair to her, most women would act the same way if their friends started complimenting them on how they look - there's always competition between women to look good, and as this programme shows, it isn't exactly healthy...... many women forget to be sensible when they see results they want
What the hell is with the friend who's encouraging Kate's behavior and COMPLIMENTING her weight loss when it is that obvious that it's taken a toll on her mental health?! I hate that women do that to one another; they feed off each others' insecurities. I've seen this before; friendships like this can lead to eating disorder competitions.
@gigibaggins I can understand your frustration, but you need to be more careful with your choice of words. You wrote "I hate women do that" as in all women do that. Please, don't put all of us into the same basket. As Helen from Possession (a 1981 film) said so beautifully "There is nothing in common among women except menstruation." Again just be careful, your words may come off in the wrong way. Some of us do work really hard to maintain a healthy weight, so compliments help a lot. Peace be.
"Whatever you're doing, you look absolutely fantastic at the moment. I'm envious of your skinny jeans look". That's very disturbing. She's trying to emulate an anorexic behaviour, and she gets compliments for the results? Sick, sick world we live in.
@TheCarlScharnberg if she looked like that while being healthy, it wouldn't have really mattered then. Her friend was probably just being honest. People with eating disorders know others will look at them and say that they've lost weight and that they look better in their clothes because thin is beautiful in this society, and apparently the only beauty, according to the media. Though she isn't doing this healthfully, she really does look good. Sad huh? She could pass for healthy at this stage.
@XXXevilxr0b0tsXXX No you're not. I find the whole idea that each & every person has to fit into the same box when it comes to food is pure pseudoscience. Just like everyones' bodies, ethnicity, blood type, height, weight, physical activity, life style are all different... why is nutrition be any different? Some people lose weight just from lowering cals, others increasing it. Some on vegan, others on pure meat (Genghis Khan diet). I lost with 1200 cals. 2000 cals would cause more weight gain.
Kate destroys the whole documentary being sooo happy about 'only getting skinnier'. They were both gorgeous before, so I do hope they return to that, because health makes women pretty, not their weight.
I think the fact that kate is starting to like being skinny shows just how addictive this kind of diet is. Many people are brainwashed during their diet and eventually become addicted to losing weight. I think kate's attitude shows just how dangerous unhealthy dieting can get. but i agree with you - they were both gorgeous before!
1200kcal a day is not "just" when you're losing weight...it's the perfect and very healthy amount (assuming you're not working out like a mental person 4h a day or sth, but responsibly)
@Bryturr yeah only the thing is you can't be fully happy being fat, just as you can't be happy starving yourself. happiness lies somewhere in the middle, when you find balance.
@Bryturr i expected you to not understand me.i've been extremely thin,i've been very fat and i've been just 'normal',so i understand the situation from all points of view.just because a fat person smiles and is cheerful doesn't mean they're not hurting inside.nobody who knew me in my 'fat days' would know i'm sad inside,'cause i would laugh and joke all the time.but when i was alone in my room,when no one could see me, that was when the real me came out and that wasn't a fully happy person.
@Bryturr thanks for the recomendation, i'll definitely watch it. but honestly, do you think someone can be happy when they can't walk up the stairs without losing breath? when they can't buy clothes in a normal shop? when they get all sweaty after walking fast to the bus stop? i'm talking about overweight people, obviously not someone who has 10 pounds to lose. accepting your look from a social point of view is one thing, but serious physical boundaries will remain there no matter what...
Kate has a eating disorder called Bulimia. It normally starts out as someone losing weight almost starving their self then they need to eat and beinge like she did. Then they throw up.
I think both Kate and Louise look less attractive the more they lose. They both looked happy, confident and full of energy when they began but now Louise looks lackluster and worn out. Her voice even sounds listless. Her shoulders looked skinny ugly IMO. Kate does seem to be proud to imagine herself anorexic.WTF ! Yes you CAN be too skinny. I'm guessing we might be seeing her purging before this is over.
the main difference between Louise and kate is that Kate is mentally unhealthy and she says "u never can be too skinny or too rich", but Louis understands, that it is all wrong ;DD
Kate is definitely developing an eating disorder at this point, if she doesn't already have one. Louise doesn't. Louise is just dedicated, Kate is obsessive. everything Kate is saying is exactly like anorexics thoughts. Its really scary.
It just goes to show that not everyone has an eating disorder mentality. Just like not everyone who drinks alcohol or tries cigarettes becomes addicted to them. It's pretty fascinating how this project turned out for both women.
@ 5:56 you see how she REALLY feels. Make no mistake, booze is a truth serum. After a few glasses of wine, we see her elation and glee at being skinny and "getting skinnier!" She wants to be skinnier and ANY woman who keeps going on about "I'm fat and happy or, excuse me, "curvy" and happy!" is lying. If you're happy, it shines from within and you never have to tell others. They will simply be attracted to it.
channels should be real careful about these shows, even if they show the negative side effects of extreme dieting, a lot of people will still be taking notes.
this doctor is really really stupid! i cant believe what he told louise!! her body wouldnt try to stop her from losing weight unless she fasted for at least 30 days! then and only then it wouldnt try to stop her and your metabolism wouldnt go down unless she could show anorexics why they dont gain weight when they dont eat. The metabolism slows down only during digestion and when its done then it reves up again..
@traceymallard your body is always trying to prevent major changes in weight, after 24hrs of fasting your body would be putting into place contingency measures, after 3 days of restriction (not fasting) your body would catch on. If it took 30 days the human race would not have survived; our bodies are generally not stupid. But the change in metabolic rate wouldn't be as long term. To change your metabolism long term takes months; aprox 1 to start to alter it, 8months to permanently alter it. =]
The numbers are a bit deceptive, It says she will be burning 200 calories more than she is taking in but hey didn't include her basal metabolic rate which is the calories she burns by simple being alive each day. She is probably closer to a 1,700 calorie deficit each day with that diet and exercise. A far cry from 200.
Louise bf has every reason 2 be mad..i think its a ridiculous "experiment" which can lead 2 real problems when its "over". Umm and Kate needs a therapist on standby..
@hellostrangermay25 That isn't what I said. Eat what you want and BE HAPPY not to feel happy. It would be a mental illness to eat to just be happy. And to not eat is a mental illness as well. Which these woman are doing. Sure it might not be one now, but there are girls and guys who start doing this and can't stop. Eating anything you like moderation is key, some people just can seem to figure that out.
@Minoriash I'm sorry. I apologize. I have food issues. When I saw that and interpreted it wrong, i just wanted to warn people against the path i've gone down. I do feel like from a young age we are rewarded or encouraged with snacks or treats and that sends some people on the path of "eating to be happy" because eating something that tastes good was a sign of doing something good or accomplishing something.
Wow. Just wow. I'm very light (80 pounds/36 kilos/5 stone 10) but I'm just 4 foot 9. This, however, scares me. It's an interesting experiment, but I wish there was a way to do it without harming people.
kates actually getting a kick out of it...like the part where she's standing at the top of the staircase looking down at her "the air between her legs"...shes looovvviiinn it lol
kate is not psychologically stable enough for this and is using her journalism as an excuse to become skinny. She is enjoying the effects far too much, and instead of this highlighting why NOT to crash diet, it looks like it's something that will encourage young girls with her attitude.
@coolbeens21 Totally Agree! hehe I've tried to workout 2 hrs. a day, drink the shake and do what she did BUT I must eat at my hours hahaha I think I will need the pressure of tv cameras to go trough that, because is super tough! I've lasted 2 days only lol - I workout 3 or 4 times a week and eat as good as I can...that challenge looks easy BUT is not! uff! Im telling ya.
louise is such a baby she's so afraid of not being accepted by her peers if she wears a size 0! i couls swear she liked it when it happened and her co workers envied the hell out of her! they woukd have cut off theyre right arm to be as skinny as she was! and if they had told louise that it was perfectly normal to be thin and 5''6 she would have found a way to stay that way.
the doctor is totally wrong! her body isnt trying to stop losing weight its preparing for the moment when she willl! and it wasnt so bad when she did! but she is brainwashed into thinking she shouldnt ever be skinny... i can only imagine what cramps her stomach went through when she came off the fast and plowed into a huge piece of cake! You never do that after a fast NEVER NEVER! where was the doctor whenshe really needed it. They would have to pick someone who enjoys being unhealthy!
@consta20 You try the diets exactly how she has tried them...see how you feel at that point...don't be too quick to judge, I don't know if you have been thru that, but even if you have you are not inside her head..and you can only judge what YOU say or do...
@gloriagloriagloriac I did not judge her ...in my view the psychiatric did a good job by eliminating from the documentary at the last stage...that's why I based my 2 sentence view on her ONE sentece "I'm qute the anorexic now"..see how a 15 year old girl will interpret that minor sentence...my comment was not going towards HER personality...rather to her expression
@consta20 Not really. It just shows that she is getting addicted to wanting to be skinny. The point of this documentary was to show men and women the effects of anorexia. Being happy that you're losing weight is one of them...
@consta20 au contraire. it boosts the meaning of this documentary because it let's you show she is getting an eating disorder because it's working. i disgust these diets. really and yeah i got six pack abs an i'm ripped but i just eat healthy and excersize. it took me 4 months to get ripped. that's the difference between this stupid thing and my lifestyle. also the problem with these diets are that when you stop your weight baloons back up with extra weight.
@consta20 weell she was drunk I suppose... after a couple glasses of wine: I think it is actually interesting, how she is enjoying this "feeling", not very educative though.
Moral of Louise not losing weight in the watercress week = eat the amount of calories your BMR is (mines 1300) and exercise to lose weight. Keeps your metab going, you can function, and you lose weight. yes it is lost slowly but properly!! then you can eat a normal diet after you've lost weight and not gain, and not waste your life yo-yo dieting when you could be working towards better goals. This kind of TV show can be triggering.
LIFE IS SHORT don't waste it lying in bed starving
of course doing this will make it likely you'll develop an eating disorder... Anorexics don't just wake up one day anorexic, they started out making an effort to eat nothing and convincing themselves they will be happier, and then become addicted to it when they lose weight and feel good about it.
they are saying there that the recomended intake fot these women ist 2500kcal per day!. but it is 2000. there are making it looking more dramatically!
@ListenUpYah That is the recommended intake for the average woman, but caloric needs also depend on how active a person is. If they are very active, their bodies might realistically require that many calories.
@ladiedaxX It doesn't look like sarcasm. >_> Also sarcasm or not she shouldn't go around parading shit like that out of her mouth.... especially if there are people who are watching this that may have an eating disorder or had lost a love one due to the disorder.... In other words, it's not funny and the bitch still needs a slap across the face for spilling that out of her mouth like that. >:(
@BlueJeanBaby012 I know.. I mean, if I were a man i'd rather date a girl with a nice amount of fat on her bones than a bag of bones. Woman shouldn't care about all those skinny models and should be able to eat what they want! :D
I dont think Kate's comments are going to help anyone that is or has been suffering with an eating disorder. Although it is probably not meant this way, what she says comes across as highlighting the positive aspects of weight loss which is not what the documentary is trying to convey.
I se where Kate is coming from. "How thin can i get?" Its fascinating. I enjoy looking at pictures of super skinny celebs for that reason. I'm not thin at all, but its absolutely fascnating to look at people who are- how little do u have to eat to be as small as Angelina Jolie or Posh Spice? Do they eat at all?
Kate doesnt have an eating disorder, but i think she enjoys flirting with this whole thing. She wants to see how far she can go, how thin she can get. Dangerous, but fascinating.
@beccagirl15 I'm not ptomoting starving yourself, but actually when you fast (dont eat anything) you body releases toxins and that helps to clear your skin. I have a friend that fasts 1 day every 2 weeks (perfectly healthy if you don't do it too much.)
@strangeling354 hmmmmmm.........I wonder why it does that. I've seen a lot of anorexics complain about thier skin though. What I don't understand is how some people grow hairer and thier bones lenghten becuase when they starve. there is no nurtients supproting hair and bone growth so how does it happen?
@beccagirl15 I would imagine that over time it wouldn't be good for your skin, but as a temporary solloution it works because your body is flushing out toxins.
so it's like...be super skinny and miserable, or be healthy looking and eat good food, maybe even indulging once in a while. I think the choice is pretty easy...
Ben is a dick! He's unsupportive and it's only an experiment, it won't last forever and she's just trying to show the dangers of eating disorders, but he's just being a grumpy shit instead of giving her a cuddle and telling her it won't last forever when she's had a rubbish day.
eww no offense but kate is really ugly and she looks like she's 60! she has so many wrinkles and her teeth are nastyyy

@Yavannasavitri
I think the fact that kate is starting to like being skinny shows just how addictive this kind of diet is. Many people are brainwashed during their diet and eventually become addicted to losing weight. I think kate's attitude shows just how dangerous unhealthy dieting can get. but i agree with you - they were both gorgeous before!

1200kcal a day is not "just" when you're losing weight...it's the perfect and very healthy amount (assuming you're not working out like a mental person 4h a day or sth, but responsibly)

@Bryturr yeah only the thing is you can't be fully happy being fat, just as you can't be happy starving yourself. happiness lies somewhere in the middle, when you find balance.

@Bryturr i expected you to not understand me.i've been extremely thin,i've been very fat and i've been just 'normal',so i understand the situation from all points of view.just because a fat person smiles and is cheerful doesn't mean they're not hurting inside.nobody who knew me in my 'fat days' would know i'm sad inside,'cause i would laugh and joke all the time.but when i was alone in my room,when no one could see me, that was when the real me came out and that wasn't a fully happy person.

@SkylarPro I'm sorry that was your outlook. :/
But look up projectlifeszie on youtube.
They're all about fat acceptance, and accepting you're fat instead of beating yourself up.
Bryturr 8 months ago
@Bryturr thanks for the recomendation, i'll definitely watch it. but honestly, do you think someone can be happy when they can't walk up the stairs without losing breath? when they can't buy clothes in a normal shop? when they get all sweaty after walking fast to the bus stop? i'm talking about overweight people, obviously not someone who has 10 pounds to lose. accepting your look from a social point of view is one thing, but serious physical boundaries will remain there no matter what...

Kate has a eating disorder called Bulimia. It normally starts out as someone losing weight almost starving their self then they need to eat and beinge like she did. Then they throw up.

Kate was already slim when she first started, she only looked like a size 10 before, must be because of her height.

I think both Kate and Louise look less attractive the more they lose. They both looked happy, confident and full of energy when they began but now Louise looks lackluster and worn out. Her voice even sounds listless. Her shoulders looked skinny ugly IMO. Kate does seem to be proud to imagine herself anorexic.WTF ! Yes you CAN be too skinny. I'm guessing we might be seeing her purging before this is over.

Kate is definitely developing an eating disorder at this point, if she doesn't already have one. Louise doesn't. Louise is just dedicated, Kate is obsessive. everything Kate is saying is exactly like anorexics thoughts. Its really scary.

@ 5:56 you see how she REALLY feels. Make no mistake, booze is a truth serum. After a few glasses of wine, we see her elation and glee at being skinny and "getting skinnier!" She wants to be skinnier and ANY woman who keeps going on about "I'm fat and happy or, excuse me, "curvy" and happy!" is lying. If you're happy, it shines from within and you never have to tell others. They will simply be attracted to it.

this doctor is really really stupid! i cant believe what he told louise!! her body wouldnt try to stop her from losing weight unless she fasted for at least 30 days! then and only then it wouldnt try to stop her and your metabolism wouldnt go down unless she could show anorexics why they dont gain weight when they dont eat. The metabolism slows down only during digestion and when its done then it reves up again..
traceymallard 11 months ago
@traceymallard your body is always trying to prevent major changes in weight, after 24hrs of fasting your body would be putting into place contingency measures, after 3 days of restriction (not fasting) your body would catch on. If it took 30 days the human race would not have survived; our bodies are generally not stupid. But the change in metabolic rate wouldn't be as long term. To change your metabolism long term takes months; aprox 1 to start to alter it, 8months to permanently alter it. =]
xxRho 6 months ago
The numbers are a bit deceptive, It says she will be burning 200 calories more than she is taking in but hey didn't include her basal metabolic rate which is the calories she burns by simple being alive each day. She is probably closer to a 1,700 calorie deficit each day with that diet and exercise. A far cry from 200.

hellostrangermay25 1 year ago 3
@hellostrangermay25 That isn't what I said. Eat what you want and BE HAPPY not to feel happy. It would be a mental illness to eat to just be happy. And to not eat is a mental illness as well. Which these woman are doing. Sure it might not be one now, but there are girls and guys who start doing this and can't stop. Eating anything you like moderation is key, some people just can seem to figure that out.
Minoriash 1 year ago
@Minoriash I'm sorry. I apologize. I have food issues. When I saw that and interpreted it wrong, i just wanted to warn people against the path i've gone down. I do feel like from a young age we are rewarded or encouraged with snacks or treats and that sends some people on the path of "eating to be happy" because eating something that tastes good was a sign of doing something good or accomplishing something.
Again, i'm sorry if I came off rude.

kate is not psychologically stable enough for this and is using her journalism as an excuse to become skinny. She is enjoying the effects far too much, and instead of this highlighting why NOT to crash diet, it looks like it's something that will encourage young girls with her attitude.

louise is such a baby she's so afraid of not being accepted by her peers if she wears a size 0! i couls swear she liked it when it happened and her co workers envied the hell out of her! they woukd have cut off theyre right arm to be as skinny as she was! and if they had told louise that it was perfectly normal to be thin and 5''6 she would have found a way to stay that way.
traceymallard 1 year ago 3
the doctor is totally wrong! her body isnt trying to stop losing weight its preparing for the moment when she willl! and it wasnt so bad when she did! but she is brainwashed into thinking she shouldnt ever be skinny... i can only imagine what cramps her stomach went through when she came off the fast and plowed into a huge piece of cake! You never do that after a fast NEVER NEVER! where was the doctor whenshe really needed it. They would have to pick someone who enjoys being unhealthy!

Moral of Louise not losing weight in the watercress week = eat the amount of calories your BMR is (mines 1300) and exercise to lose weight. Keeps your metab going, you can function, and you lose weight. yes it is lost slowly but properly!! then you can eat a normal diet after you've lost weight and not gain, and not waste your life yo-yo dieting when you could be working towards better goals. This kind of TV show can be triggering.

of course doing this will make it likely you'll develop an eating disorder... Anorexics don't just wake up one day anorexic, they started out making an effort to eat nothing and convincing themselves they will be happier, and then become addicted to it when they lose weight and feel good about it.

I dont think Kate's comments are going to help anyone that is or has been suffering with an eating disorder. Although it is probably not meant this way, what she says comes across as highlighting the positive aspects of weight loss which is not what the documentary is trying to convey.
Meadow1501 1 year ago
I se where Kate is coming from. "How thin can i get?" Its fascinating. I enjoy looking at pictures of super skinny celebs for that reason. I'm not thin at all, but its absolutely fascnating to look at people who are- how little do u have to eat to be as small as Angelina Jolie or Posh Spice? Do they eat at all?
Kate doesnt have an eating disorder, but i think she enjoys flirting with this whole thing. She wants to see how far she can go, how thin she can get. Dangerous, but fascinating.

@strangeling354 hmmmmmm.........I wonder why it does that. I've seen a lot of anorexics complain about thier skin though.

@beccagirl15 I would imagine that over time it wouldn't be good for your skin, but as a temporary solloution it works because your body is flushing out toxins.
