Aussies, the 3 part series which has been discussed here on the forum, starts on ABC telly in half an hour. It's called The Men who made you Fat. Has it been on before? I'm not sure. I'm looking forward to watching it and getting revengeful towards those men. Bastards! So good to have someone to blame!

Must be the one who prescribed tricyclic antidepressants back in the 80th. Nobody told me I could get very hungry, so from being very skinny I gained 14kg in just two months. My metabolism have never been the same and I curse that doc and those meds even today. Grrrrrr

I merged the two threads on this topic, hope that's OK!

The programmes were aired in the UK last year...quite an eye opener and are highly recommended viewing!

You made me chuckle today Sallyo! I watched the programme whenever it was on here, last year I think, it was worth a watch! :curse: Curse those men in white coats!
