Bizarre Place to “Stash Food” on Nip/Tuck
City girls - looking for a new place to hide food from your boyfriend or husband? Nip/Tuck shows you a new location ….
Not a real informative post today… a rather ridiculous one (but I
couldn’t resist!). Does anyone watch Nip/Tuck? While I’m not a huge TV person, this is one of the shows I will watch if I’m home (on Tuesday at 10 pm and Sun 10 pm repeats on channel FX). For those people who watch it, we are all well aware it is “over the top”.
I found last weeks episode (11/21) to be particularly bizarre with regards to the “food isssues” . Quick recap … Sean (one of the leading
doctors pictured on the right) has a new girlfriend named Kate. She had a gastric bypass a while back and lost 150 pounds. Patients who have had this surgery need to follow a special diet that is higher in protein, very low in sugar and include multiple mini meals. However Kate has gone off the diet, has started to binge and is regaining weight. Sean found several peanut M&M’s in their bed. Kate confessed to eating “one” pack of M&M’s instead of dinner. Sean then proceeded to find 5 jumbo packs of M&M’s under the bed. Kate confessed to binging. 
Sean wanted to help her avoid eating more junk food so he asked her where her secret stash of junk food was kept so he could get rid of it. Kate directed him toward the tank on her toilet! Sean pulled out a plastic bag containing Fluffernuter out of the toilet. 
Who else besides the writers on Nip/Tuck could have thought of such a hiding place?
On a more serious note, the show brought up some good issues of how hard it can be to stick to an appropriate eating plan. Kate mentioned that she thinks of crispy cream donuts all the time and has been giving into her cravings. I think most of us can relate to this on some level.
