It's quiet at work so I've had a quick calculation of how much this trip has cost them and so far I'm at £50,000 which includes the cruise, flights, wedding package on the rust bucket, tickets to Universal Singapore, hotel in NZ and the stay and two days in HK Disney. I've not watched the vlogs so have no idea how few/many stops they had but say they spend £500.00 each stop on food (a fortune), plastic tat (another fortune) and taxis, plus drinks onboard the ship, the P&O excursions (not possible to get a price for them unless you're booking one) and I reckon we could be close to £70,000. All that money spent just cos they don't want to pay for other people to be at their wedding? I cannot cannot cannot comprehend willingly handing over that much money JUST to avoid giving family a nice day and also to brag to strangers on the internet. And are they happy? Nope, they're enormous, sunburned and miserable lol!

That's truly sickening

I imagine she doesn't think it's reversible or controllable at this point. Even though it's never too late to change something. She saw herself gaining weight and doubled down on it because it brings her comfort to eat and binge. Even thought it's making her fatter, unhealthier and unhappier.

Yeah I agree. Her BMI must be close to if not over 40 at this point and realistically she'd need to lose at least 6-7 stone to get to a 'healthy' weight...we've all seen there's no way she's got the willpower to do that.
 
I reckon she doesn’t even have the will power for weight loss surgery or weight loss medication (ozempic etc) yes they make it easier but you can eat through them and both have side effects/pain. She wouldn’t be able to hack it.

she would 100% eat through a band imo
 
Things I’d do with £70,000 if I was in their situation… house repairs and bought a new car with cash. Then used whatever’s left for the honeymoon/wedding besides what the parents contributed.

Me personally if someone handed me $70,000 CAD today? Pay off my mortgage in full as well as other debt (car is 7 years old and already paid off). Then anything I make going forward can go towards holidays and savings. Yes please, sign me up!

I spent two weeks in Japan last year for under $4500 CAD including flights, hotels, walking tours, Disney tickets, rail pass, spending and shopping.

They could have done the three Asian Disney parks, Universal Japan, and possibly Singapore with business flights for under £10,000 easily! But she’s such an excellent travel planner you know!

The trips that they have been in as excursions booked with the ship are easily £150 - £200 each minimum. Ship excursions are not cheap so I imagine some would have been significantly more. I think they were banking on P&O gifting them more but there was such a social media backlash when they posted their Mediterranean cruise that I think P&O dropped them, by that stage they were so far down the world cruise wedding tunnel that they couldn’t back out. I’ve known friends that have been on 2 week cruises and gained a stone in weight so god knows what these 2 have piled on. I did an 18 day cruise a few years ago & made sure that I walked and spent time in the gym on sea days. They could of had a great routine in the 20+ days they have been at sea and I imagine that the gym wasn’t too busy but both have wallowed like the hippos that they saw but without the running.
We are going to Australia this month for 16 days and I am so proud with all my planning that we are in lovely hotels in 3 locations with Emirates flights & car for 7 days and it’s cost £5.5k. We have booked lots of activities already and I’m sure we will stay within our budget. The money they have spent in food alone is obscene.

BTW thanks to whoever posted the Ben and David video here a while back about the food on P&O. I’ve got really into their videos since - now they make me WANT to cruise… just not on P&O. 😂

They’re a pair of twats too - and there’s nothing really wrong with P&O.

Yeah totally agree about the band, she'd probably lose weight in the short term but she'd soon learn how to cheat it. I have a friend who did exactly the same...had the band at about 18st, lost some weight initially but put it all back on and is now about 23st.

Don't give them a view lol! Their vlogs are pretty good and I used to like them but they find negatives in everything, create clickbait titles and created quite a stooshy with MSC recently which gave them all the attention they crave! They're mentioned on the cruise thread on here.
