Mine wouldn't suit everyone but it does at least include the occasional sensible meal prepared by me in between my visits to the pub.
Let's be honest, the documentary makers need these losers, it would be as boring as hell for them to follow me around for a few days, better to have an extreme that we can all say I'm glad I'm not that bad.
It would be even more boring if they followed me around Less.

We are all individuals. Grown ups.
I do not need anyone to police my lifestyle, let alone regulate what I am permitted to eat and drink.
If I want a sugary snack....I will have one(but I won't make a habit of it)
I have a very large Easter egg on my kitchen counter....it is unopened...but if I wanted to scoff it, then I would.....and sod the consequences.
