Grraaagh!

OK, I was looking for a book on yoga on Ebay, and WTF is a yoga bag?!? Does every damn idea have to have an Abercrombie and Fitch accessory before it becomes of any value? And who the hell are these damn Abercrombie and Fitch people anyway?

Now I've got that off my chest, I'm back to my essay: 869/1500 words under my belt!

Yoda bag mispelled perhaps?

Heheh - could be the case. Not sure if that helps salve my irritation though :/

So you don't fancy Geri Yoga then? :)

Where Geri just talks now and then while her instructor does all the hard work.

Bah - I've nothing in common with her but advancing years and hair colour. And even that's too much to admit to ;)

She proves that mad diets don't work, she started smoking again and put on some weight shortly after. But then she didn't need to lose any in the first place.

Yeah - I've lost stacks of weight in the past by going on mad diets, but it's never really stayed off. It's a shame she ever felt pressured into losing it in the first place...

She was very sexy in the union jack flag era. She wasn't pressurised I think she has had a body image problem for most of her life.

Working in an office made me overweight, having canteen and pub food at lunchtimes. Oh and having crisp and chocolate machines littered about the place.

The only thing that worked for me was tightnening up the abs, cutting out biscuits and other snacks, eating fruit when peckish. I'm still largely not eating snacks, plus I've got my George Foreman grill to reduce the fat in what I eat.

I didn't mean that someone pressurised her, just that she felt pressured to diet. Pressure can be both internal and external, and like you said, she almost certainly had body image problems before she was famous.

And yes, working in an office, with the boredom and easy availability of snacks, is the path to dietary ruin.
