The ideal body.

It's not difficult to get the "ideal" figure. Not at all! At least not if you have a computer and is somewhat good at retouching the photos. I came across these photos of Ayda Field, Robbie Williams girlfriend. They are rather similar, aren't they? Yet not at all. I get so frustrated by this. The thought of girls and young women looking at the retouched photos and thining they must starve themselves to look like that really makes me upset and angry! It's not like she's not gorgeous in the more natural looking photo, right? Yet we have a society where the ideal woman is so skinny that it often come at a serious physical and mental cost. Whats wrong with natural and healthy bodies?! KappAhl (a Swedish clothing chain) recently had to remove and replance their manequins because calculations showed that if women would look like them they would even have a menstruation! I'm actually so upset right now I can't even put it into words. We should be proud of our bodies, not ashamed!





Lot's nd lot's of naturaly looking Love,
Linn

A happy camper!


Oh my gosh, my life is sweet dudes! Especially today! I almost had a panic attack yesterday because I ran out of breakfast. Now, I know you´re thinking, well just go and get some more from the grocery store, well it's not that kind of breakfast. Actually I started to use Herbalife a while back.

Itroduction to Herbalife, for those of you who haven't heard of it before:
Herbalife is a company that produces and retails nutritional products. The product I have for breakfast is called Formula 1. It's a pouder that you mix with milk (in my case low lactose milk, since I´m lactose intolerant) and it contains all the minerals, vitamins and micronutritions you need. I also mix in som extra protein powder since I don't eat enough meat to ensure I consume the recomended daily intake. I must say, I really didn't believe I would notice any change - but wowee! I have som much more energy now and my blood sugar has stabilised (which means I am no longer grumpy or in any way in a bad mood). As a bonus I don't feel the slightest urge to eat any candy or sweets. I can definitely say I wouldn't want to go one day without these products ever again. And as a nice bonus I lost some weight and now it's just fun to go to the gym to work out, instead of an absoulte drag- as it used to feel!

Back on track, so yesterday I used up the last powder of Formula 1 I had, but luckily today my new order was delivered, so I am once again a happy camper! Oh, and Herbalife also have lots of other products, so if you are interested, just send me an e-mail, post a comment here or if you have my number give me a call or send me a text and I'll tell you more about it- you won't regret it! I don't!

Lots of Love
from the now ever so energetic Linn!
