No such thing as healthy eating.... just lower calories than you burn... OK So what shall we call this method of eating fewer calories than we burn?? Eating Healthy?
Not necessarily! A 100% Brocolli diet, as a totally random example, might reduce weight. But the lack of so many other essentials would likely cause all sorts of other issues!

I work on a building site and there’s 1 very overweight person. He goes to greggs every day and devours sausage roll/ chocolate eclair deals like it’s nothing. Washes it down with 2 litres of Coca Cola.

According to the one time Health Secretary the tasty Edwina Currie (please, no John Major jokes) eating just a diet of fish and chips would result in you dying of malnutrition.
Same would apply to eggs infected with salmonella.

Missis T is going to weight watchers. Some of here home cooked meals are fantastic and she has lost 11lb at the moment. Basically it’s sensible eating. coz I am A Supportive kinda guy I have been eating the same things. When I hammer the bag of revels I go in the other room ?

Does the half a pot of Tomato Sauce with my F&C contribute to my 5-a-day?

Nope ?. I ve been between 12 and 13 stone since I was a teenager, I’m now over 50.
Stone. ? who ate all the pies. joking aside when I started at Thoresby pit. Every years a gang of lads in January went in a 10 week diet. The winner who lost the most took the brass. I did the weigh in on Monday mornings. One lad had to be weighed on the lorry weighbridge he was that fat. He won the first year. He lost 56lbs. ?
The following year the lads changed the rules so that the winner win by % body weight lost.
Edit to say the following year the weighbridge refused to weigh the big lad because it cost x amount each time so he had to go to Boots as there scales Would weigh an elephant ours only went up to 24 stones
