Rather unfair photos selected for comparison. However I feel you are worrying needlessly on our behalf ab. I suspect most of us ladies on this board are subscribing to the Nigella wine and dessert regime, whether we're officially "on a diet" or not
I suspect you are right judging by the numbers subscribing to the Im a tubby threads.
The post was also trying to carry a message that it doesnt really matter how you look as long as you are confident in yourself and that you dont need to go after all these fad diets just to get the look that you think society expects of you.
Gillian is of course a fraud and bought her degree but shows just how dangerous it can be to believe the TV at times.
I also suspect that nigella eats sensibly at home and doesnt pig out on chocolate goodies everyday.Who I am is not important. What I do is.0 -

There's a difference between looking good on the outside and being healthy on the inside.
Having said that, I don't like Gillian or agree with some of what she says.0 -

I'd say that was pretty obvious0 -
How come Nigella looks so good when her father looks the way he does? Is her mother really gorgeous or something?0

Same old story. Size matters to women (Im talking about the size of the wallet)Who I am is not important. What I do is.0 -
Thank you.
That lady in the picture looks botoxed and lip injected, or is it just me?
As for size deficiency, is it really such a common problem? I hear so much about it, and am wondering if it's something that's a really common hazard, or if it's just something people consider funny, so talk about it a lot.0 -

Is this a picture of Nigella's mother?.

She does have amazing bone structure and Nigella obviously has inerited her striking looks
Sadly, Vanessa Salmon/Lawson/Ayer died of liver cancer in 1985 at the age of 48, so if so this photo would pre-date the days of botox
Nigella's sister died of breast cancer aged 32 and of course Nigella lost her husband John Diamond at the age of 47 to cancer too.
PS Not a big Gillian fan, but this would be a fairer comparison photo
