@jemandtheholograms: I betcha it's Brad Pitt's interfering granny again.

@whynotshesaid: If all those things are fine, and you don't have impaired glucose tolerance, you are healthy. That's why BMI should definitely be used in conjunction with other tests. I would say though that most people with a BMI over thirty do not run marathons or have the good test results you have. You are…

@Scout: Yep, I totally agree with you on that factor. I wouldn't be surprised if someone promoting their 'healthier' store wants their staff to look the part. Like Ambercrombie but sneakier.

@Scout: I'm with you on the BMI thing definitely. I get really annoyed when people comment that their muscle mass is so great that they have a massive BMI. I don't buy that for the average person one bit, and I think it's disingenious to promote that. I also agree with you that if a company is going to go down this…

Yay for Alya Brown, even though I have no idea who she is. I love John Kerry, and wish he could have been president instead of dipshit Dubya. He has so much morals and integrity. He led a senate investigation into BCCI, an incredibly corrupt bank with links to the CIA (it's pretty mindboggling, I recommend reading…

@Dauphine: My pet peeve is low fat foods. I refuse to believe that fake foods, substituting high salt, HFCS, sugar, and trans fats for real ingrediets can be better for you than real food made with fresh ingredients. I also refuse to believe that said foods will have any impact other than negative on weight, since…

@sydbarrettsaves, emissary of hell: But why should BMI have any impact on an employee discount. Fair is fair. If they're worried about some staff buying more than others place a limit on the value that can be discounted for all staff. If health care costs are too high for some, set a cap on the maximum amount paid by…

@JanaNye: It's disgusting that companies are allowed to do things like this. I understand the problems associated with obesity, but it is not a companies' job to monitor people's health. An employer pays staff and perhaps provides health insurance in exchange for WORK. If an employee cannot do the WORK there should be…

@Ipomoea: Get your B6, B9, and B12 checked first, and ask whether they are in the low healthy range or the high healthy range. You have a lot of demands for those three while pregnant, and scientists think the low healthy level may be too low for some pregnant women. Good luck with your babymaking!

@Elizabooth: Ladies. That is a perfect excuse to get a whole new shoe-wardrobe. You need to milk those babies for all their worth. I'm guessing you didn't even demand a push present.

@Penny: You obviously absorbed it to meet your nutritional needs.

@rubytron58: So you attended a liberal anti-English establishment. How progressive.

@tervalicious: That is so ignorant. If you want to lose lbs you carry your baby with you everywhere. Great resistance training. When they're too big too be carried, lets face it you don't want muscly arms-too Madonna, just chase after them. Running around after your kids lets you lose weight easily. It's how all the…

@OverratedUnderwhelmed: This reminds me of a sickening thing I read about the warnings on cigarette packets. In Europe there are huge warnings about side effects of smoking on every packet, each packet focuses on one. One of the warnings reads 'smoking while pregnant results in a low birth weight'. Apparently this led…

@badly drawn girl: or this

I guess the schools could replace it with this.

Sadie stop it. You know I can't even say the word titmouse without giggling like a schoolgirl.

@curiousgeorgiana: Oh wow, that is gorgeous, absolutely stunning. Wouldn't it be great to swan around in a dress like that?

Poor Pharrell. Did he not realise all models are photoshopped? Obviously doesn't read enough Jez.

I'm glad Erin O'Connor mentioned Monsoon along with the GAP when it comes to sweatshop labour. I love their jewellery and bags, but they contain huge amounts of beading, sequins, and embroidery, which is done in sweatshops in Bangladesh. I always feel GAP and Nike are the quintissential examples of sweatshop labour,…
