Last week I received some great and encouraging emails from around the world about favourite body parts (reference my blog on 5 August).
It is great to read that we all have favourite bits. Whether they are eyes, ears, bottoms or legs, it would seem that we can all find a bit of our bodies that we think is fabulous.
Now that we have great bits to be proud of, I would suggest we emphasise these areas by drawing attention to them with our clothes or accessories. For instance, if your butt is your best bit, then wear a great bottom hugging pair of jeans. Alternatively, those who love your arms, wear vests to show off those toned limbs.
Me? I will be wearing flip flops for as long as the weather will allow!

You Favourite Body Part
Last night I watched a documentary about people who make a living as a body part double. It was really quite interesting.
These people were normal but had one part of their body that was perfect. For instance, there was a lady whose hands were used for all sorts of advertisements, commercials and film parts. Her hands were nice, certainly better than mine, and even though a model may look great in a photograph, chances are her hands have been substituted by a hand model.
This then made me think what part of me could I use as a body part double? I think I could probably use my feet! There isn't anything odd about them, no sticky out bits, all the toes are in alignment, only trouble is, they are a little bit broader than the average foot!
I'd love you to post, or even add a photo (nothing dirty please), of you favourite body part!

How to Lose Weight and Keep It Off
This week the BBC published an article about losing weight.
A study by The University of Pittsburgh in the US found the 55-minute regime was the minimum needed to maintain a 10% drop in weight.
Women who want to lose weight - and keep it off - need to be exercising for almost an hour, five days a week, according to the experts.
Hummm, now, how many of us already knew that answer? Exercising daily + eating healthily = weight loss. Did we need a University study to tell us that?
