I don't think it's just aspartame, I think it's a couple of them. I first noticed it a couple of years ago. My sister has it mildly too. It's got worse over time though, the symptoms and the onset have changed. I had some sweetners 2 days ago and within 10 minutes I felt awful, but about 2 hours later I felt better.

There's so many things containing sweetners which you just wouldn't think. A lot of types of medication contain sweetners, that really ****s me off because it's usually not necessary. And most drinks, and most things with "diet" written on them, and a number of alcoholic drinks like alcopops have loads in. In my opinion sweeteners should only be used if you're diabetic or in toothpaste, everywhere else they're just not healthy at all.

I do feel strongly about artificial sweeteners and I do feel annoyed and offended that they are put in everything nowadays. I haven't had chewing gum for about 2 years and I can't take lemsip, some cough medicines, indigestion medicines, all sorts of things.

It's about time you ate some decent food Jono. No wonder you're always ill!

I eat mostly ryvitas, salads, fruit salads, and brown bread. And drink Vimto I'll have you know.

Um... Quavers aren't healthy...

I gave up so many things gradually like crisps, biscuits, cakes, chocolate (except in emergencies when it is necessary) and started eating things like natural yogurt and fruit, and I feel more healthy. I don't really weigh less because of the school food which isn't healthy really at all, but I will lose some weight once I get home and buy my own food and get down the gym.

Yeah,I cut down totally on Crisps,Biscuits and Cakes in January as my new years resolution and its helped me alot and I feel alot healthier than before christmas.

I mean I still eat alot of chocolate as I crave it once each month and I go through bars and bars in a space of 4 or 5 days.

I run,swim,cycle,walk and play Hockey(in the winter) which keep me healthy.

Luckily our we have our own Catering Company at School and our own chef who has brought alot of healthy eating into our menu and he's stopped letting us having Coke,Crisps and Chocolate and made Fruit,Yogurts and Salads more cheap than before.

Ah that sounds nice. Well eating school food 3 meals a day for 5 years hasn't helped me. They replaced our Mars vending machine with a healthy one though, which I'm happy about. I used to buy a lot of crap junk food but I've stopped now. However my sister buys loads of it so it means it's always around the house when she's home which is annoying because it's temptation. But generally in the last year since I've been eating healthy I've felt a lot happier and more active. It was just painful, not eating chocolate for 3 weeks when I'd eaten it most days before, and I was irritable for about 5 days before I broke the addiction. I still have it occasionally when I feel the need, but not all the time.

    • Intrigued why Matt & Mollie aren't presenting breakfast on Monday, with James in for them instead (which has happened before).. or even James given a chance to present the breakfast show?
    • Sam & Danni seem to be down for Breakfast on Monday. James Cusack on Going Home. That’s another new name in the list of “people who have hosted Going Home in 2025”.
    • Wednesday, surely? But this is another mess, as this weeks Summer press release said it’ll be Sam & Danni no Jamie from the 28th - so it’s actually a whole week earlier!
    • Jamie Laing’s last show before his summer break will be on Wednesday 16th July.
    • I worked out once Scott spent 3 months of a year off his own slot in the Moyles days and more like 4 in Grimmys days, six weeks of his own holiday and projects, six covering Grimmy plus some ad hoc days 
    • Back on topic, I think there's quite a few of the current Radio 1 presenters who would be able to adapt to Radio 2's style in the future. It's more of question of how many of them will actually end up there. With much of R2's line up changed over the past couple of years, it's quite possible we won't see much movement there, and R2 management might even decide to look elsewhere to bring in new presenters in future.
    • With OJ covering on bank holidays. She is the best person for the job however... they're going to end up with a situation like Scott covering R1 breakfast back in the day, where she spends quite a bit of time off her own slot covering Breakfast, plus her own holiday and other commitments. She's been filming for something recently which has meant she's been off several days a week since May. She was off last week, on breakfast this week, OJ is on Mon/Tues next week, then She's off the following two weeks.
    • Looking back at this I would say now that Sara is the main cover - I think she has been reestablished as it now 
    • Purley on the R1 Dance station.. Someone on DS said don't expect to see any changes to the schedule on the new stations however if they are taking on Capital Dance with this, which they clearly are, which has live presenters 7am - 10pm except for the 11am mix then they'll surely have to have a proper scheduled set of shows. At the moment Arielle is the only "live" per say show and only "live" a few days a week with earlier shows being repeated Thursday Friday and Saturday. Connor and Charlie are clearly pre records but was this only for the time it was online only and they have already got a schedule ready to go on day 1? also of note is that Charlie is taking over a podcast as well as starting a new project with podcasting which makes me wonder if she is about to step back from Dance Anthems all together to concentrate on those and Connor takes over? So you could have Arielle doing 9-12 weekdays live then someone else 12-3 and Connor live 3-6 on R1D and doing Dance Anthems on a Saturday. 
    • As none of the Going Home Team aren't currently on the air, that's a bit if an issue. Considering most of the Dance DJs will be out there, I'm surprised none of them are being utilised to host the 1-4 slot that weekend.
    • Going Home presenters have done the last few years ?
    • Nat and Vicky are being sent to Ibiza this year. They’ll be live on Friday 1st August from 1-4pm.     
    • Since Radio 1 Dance and Anthems have been allowed to broadcast on DAB, do we think they’ll be a proper schedule of shows like on Radio 1 Dance with the morning show and Dance Anthems at drive time. Maybe Lauren Redfern, Tyler Selby, Chrissy Cameron or Matt Hallsworth will be scheduled on named shows like Hits Radio 00s or Capital Anthems rather than the generic ‘Radio 1 Anthems’ show. Obviously it would probably cost more to produce actual shows on the station however.
    • There's been a lot of positive reaction to the Mylo and Rosie news so am interested now to hear what their shows are like. And yep wouldn't be surprised if they stay on beyond July as cover ever so often. And that Friday-Sunday news was hidden in the small print a little. It presumably means we lose Party Anthems all that month as that is what has happened this year with Big Weekend, Glasto for example. I certainly I hope it isn't Party Anthems being quietly axed full stop - it and Future Pop are 2 real hidden gems on Radio 1. 
    • I’m pleased for Mylo and Rosie, they were highly thought of in our local area and definitely worthy of that slot
