I'm watching a show on Oprah about food and how to eat healthier and what do they show on the commerical break? Microwave brownies with a voice in the background saying "fudge is your friend." This should be illegal. This constant advertising of food is almost like brainwashing. If they're so concerned about Americans being obese, they need to put a stop to all the junk food commercials!
But, that is how the money is made, right? You do pose an excellent point, though! I mean, surely Oprah can find other advertisers. I saw it, too. Can you believe that 11 pound basket of fruit, etc?
Thanks for the comment! A transformation, huh? Wow, thanks! And yea, I half expected to throw something out (like my back!) when I tried that, but lo and behold, it worked! :)
You would think the show discussing eating healthier would be able to influence the advertisements surrounding the show. I also had to laugh at the Biggest Loser show. There are recommendations out there that you should get up and move at the commercials...walk up and down the stairs, etc...but right before the commercial break, they give you a trivia question and they give the answer DURING the commercial break to make sure that you stick around and watch the commercials and don't stray too far from the couch. HA!
It is a form of brainwashing. Ever been in the hospital to have test run and you are on a liquid diet and all you have to do is watch tv or read a magazine and everything you see is FOOD!!!! and you are starving??? I have developed a way to turn the commercials off in my brain. I just don't hear them anymore.
I don't weigh anymore, I let the clothes and the tape measure tell me how I am doing with eating healthy and exercising.
Blessings to you and good luck. Chargail
