Was he ever obese

I watched a bit of him selling his "all-time favorite" product, the vibraplate yesterday evening. Usual BS of him claiming to use it daily and how it helped him lose four-and-a-half stone, although he did add "in conjunction with a balanced diet" this time. Claimed we "won't be seeing it again" and that it was at a "price to clear".

Flicking through the channels first thing and Natalia is on. What was she selling? You've guessed it, the vibraplate. Was a proper fish out of water moment for her away from her Opatra as she was just reading the handbook while she was selling. Also, was wearing heels and a short PVC looking skirt so didn't even bother to demonstrate the item, was just sat on a stool holding the handles to the plate and talking about it. Yes, her outfit was not really suitable (although considering they supposedly have these pre-show meetings, she knew what she was going to be selling so could easily have worn trousers (I'm guessing Natalia doesn't do trackie bottoms) and flat shoes) but it still amazes me when presenters don't bother to properly demonstrate items.

Which is strange as he only started selling the Vibroplate on TJC's IW.

IW2 used to sell Vibrapower (which he said was his #1 product, best in the business, better than the others, the one he'd bought and paid a lot more for, lost weight with, no longer obese, etc).

Yet when IW2 had a show with the other vibration plate they used to sell (I forget the name, it was boxy and they'd always make a big deal about it being 'far more powerful than the other one we bring you - this is the one the gym bods will want, the other is for elderly beginners who need gentle vibration') it was THAT one he claimed to own and keep at the end of his bed, etc.

Also see: linear treadmill vs the big non-folding treadmill; bike box vs the sit n' cycle; thermo belt vs the electro-stimulation belt; Jane Plan vs Nutri Bullet smoothies, etc for more of Pedro's "I swear by this" flip-flopping.

BTW, Jane is as nice as her food. I’ll leave you to decide what I mean by that

And it wasn't just limited to Pedro, they were all at it. The amount of times presenters and pretendy experts contradicted themselves from show to show was unbelievable, was almost a daily occurrance.

It amazes me how anybody can trust a word these presenters etc say, yet some do.
 
Nice to see some on this thread defending the bid crew.
Disgusting 🤬hang your heads in shame.
Any proper broadcasting authority would have stepped in by now,and taken them down.

I've noticed it particularly relating to corded/cordless devices like vacuum cleaners and irons.

One day cordless are amazing, so much freedom using them, then the next day (when they're selling a corded one) it's so much better than the cordless as the battery life is rubbish on them. The only way they can 'sell' the item is to rubbish any competitor.

For the record I've got a cordless Dyson vacuum which I'm happy with (although totally agree the battery isn't great). For me it's better than a corded one. I want a cordless iron (the cord is driving me mad) but I've read a few reviews and they're not great. I'll keep looking.

I believe everything they say.

To cover all bases, I vacuum with a cordless in my left hand and corded in my right.
