13.1.10

With all this snow recently, I have been watching a little more TV than usual- work being closed for the weather. Has anyone else noticed that Jessie Wallace has gone from looking like a healthy women in her late 30s to looking like a pre pubecent boy. Although I am not a fan of the mail, the before and after photos make the point. Every time I see the advert for her exercise video, it freeks me out. Anyone who is worried about the size and shape of modern women should read Female Fertility and the Body Fat Connection by Rose E Frisch. Its very interesting.

Last night I watch My big Fat Diet Show on channel 4. I have long felt that diet drinks just made your body think it was getting sugar because they are sweet and then when no sugar arrives in your stomach, it just makes you hungry. Last night on the show, was a research scientist from Queens University Belfast who had proven my theory. I avoid diet drinks because aspartame disagrees with me. But those of you who think having things which are "sugar free" or have "no added sugar" are better for your health, think again. The same thing with low fat food- low fat tends to have more sugar or or sweeteners, smaller amounts of the full fat version may be more satisfying and be better for you.
