My friend & I disagree about Gwyneth..

[MappandLucia]

With apologies for DM link..

I think she looks amazing, toned, fit and this is would be how I would love to look (need to drop a stone!)
My friend, however, thinks she looks like a '10 year old boy'!

Doesn't do anything for me!

I'm with your friend though she does have good legs.

Don't know why she's bothering with the top though

Apparent from the lack of boobage, she looks great

'My friend, however, thinks she looks like a '10 year old boy'!'
yep. your friend is right....

Agree - I'd like to be that thin/toned but keep my norks!

She looks like an ironing board

What is there to hang on to there?

Saying that I bet clothes hang beautifully on her

I think she's naturally fairly slim. I don't think she has to eat as little as I'd have to eat to be that slim.

Excellent legs and yes she looks fabulous dressed, but I don't think she has an enviable bikini body at all.

I'd have to eat dust to be that thin

She looks really fit but is a bit too skinny imo.

A bony chest on a woman of my a certain age does them no favours at all. I'm getting bored of all the 'look how thin I am' celebs.

[shudder]

I thought Gwyneth was amazingly pretty as a young girl. I think she is trying too hard to hold on to her youth though - she needs to get a look that is more in tune with her age. She is no longer a teen...

she needs to rethink the 'whole straw for hair' situation

She extols the benefits of eating only one meal a day? Well that's teaching your children to have a healthy relationship with food isn't it?

Yes, those Timotei locks are just wrong on someone over 25...

I think she is too thin. You can see her ribs clearly in that second picture.

Yes, and needs a smart haircut.

Agree about the hair.

I have a figure rather like Gwyneth's (shoot me ). As well as eating healthily and regularly exercising, she clearly has genetics that predispose her to that kind of figure. As do I. (Thanks to my lanky Dad). It doesn't mean she's starving herself to look like that.

And please don't make comments about her flat chest! Being naturally flat chested myself I actually find it quite offensive! No matter how much weight I put on it never goes to my chest. What should she do, have fake ones? Then you'd be saying, 'she looks great apart from the fake tits'.

I have to say though, that if she only eats one meal a day that's not so great.

i was flat chested as a teenager. i miss it. i think it is good that she hasn't 'augmented'.

TheBolter - I too have a figure a bit like Gwyneth's (sadly not as toned and a bit fatter these days). I love being small-chested and always have done - clothes look so much better! And you can always hike your breasts up with a good bra with inserts if you want cleavage for a party - this has always seemed to me to be a lot easier than disguising overly large breasts

I just googled to try and find earlier pics of her and found these. She does not look healthy imo.

I think she looks great. Not sure I would fancy following her diet to achieve those looks though ...
"She has also followed the Maple Syrup Diet, which involves consuming nothing but maple syrup, cayenne pepper, lemon juice and water.

And she has proclaimed the benefits of a programme which involves giving up orange juice, dairy, alcohol, sugar, wheat, caffeine and processed foods, and eating only one meal a day."

She has a lovely figure. It is not one I desire to have though. I am more envious of these ladies bodies

Sadly even though I have the waist and hips/bum, when I am slim my boobs are medium sized so more of a pear than an hourglass.

Slating a woman for having small boobs is as bad as slating fat people for being fat IMO.

She does not look like a 10yr old boy! Well, no 10yr old boy I have ever seen.

I think she looks healthy- you can tell she is naturally smaller on top but her legs aren't too skinny. She looks fantastic to be honest.

A good figure is a good figure. Small boobs are elegant.

I admire curvy bodies too- why can't we just embrace each other's differences? Rather than slate? It's unkind and bitchy (and most probably bullshit stemming from jealousy too).

Well said Mobly, agree totally
