Love doing radio and was with @stephanddom on @talkradiouk talking about all things to do with
Self-esteem, body-image, confidence, self-confidence, positivity, social media, mental health, whats real and whats not, filters, teens and online bullying , anxiety and more.
You can still listen to the programme on my blog

And
– a shout out to Steph @stephanddom hope all well with you

Talking about body image and mental positivity.
.
So sometimes it’s necessary to step back temporarily from posting on social media-
To regroup,
To regain one’s own inner strength and positivity again
in order to be able to inspire others. .

.
I would show how clothes can flatter and sculpt your body shape to attract the eye to your best bits and detract from those you like least.
.
Dressing cleverly is all about creating an illusion whatever your body shape.
.
Everyone can dress to be the best versions of themselves with no need to use apps or filters on their social media posts.
.
No celebrity I have ever dressed in all my 30 years as a celebrity stylist has had a perfect body. We are all unique and should embrace our own individuality. .

Rejuvenated with my first haircut for 3 months after the Summer.
A good haircut is better than any new dress or shoes.
Makes you feel so much better.

Its important to stay flexible as you grow older.
.
Not necessarily as flexible as myself as I have hyper-mobility which is not a good thing so I have to be careful to not over-stretch.
Especially as I had a hip resurface ( like Andy Murray) a few years ago.
.
However exercising, stretching and moving every day, even if its just a 20 min dog walk will make a difference to your body, how you feel and also your mental health.
.
.
.
.
.
From tomorrow, I will be eating predominantly vegetables and slowly re-introducing protein with fish and chicken back into my daily diet.
.
As my 65th birthday approaches, I felt it increasingly important to take stock of my health, returning to healthy eating and regular exercise as it had all gone pear-shaped during the Summer.
.
Friends say to me “but you look fine as you are” you don’t need to lose weight” but visceral fat ( the internal fat around your organs can also be inside a slim or even skinny person. Also we all know that to look good we need to FEEL good as well.
.
Visceral fat is a type of body fat that can’t be pinched or seen with the naked eye, and it surrounds vital organs, including the liver, pancreas and kidneys. Keeping levels of visceral fat can reduce the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, the onset of type 2 diabetes and many other illnesses.
