“Anita Johnston, Ph.D., author of Eating in the Light of the Moon, taught me to look in the mirror with curiosity rather than fear. So I may look at my reflection and think, 'That's interesting. I wonder why my body seems bigger today than it did yesterday. Maybe it's water weight. Maybe it's my outfit. Or maybe my eyes are just playing tricks on me.' I know it's not possible for me to gain a noticeable amount of weight overnight, so I will go no further than that. I move on with my day without skipping a beat-and definitely without missing a meal.” ThinkingKnowsLooksMayBodyLightSeemsEyeTodayMovingWaterInterestingWonderMissingTaughtAmountMoonEatingBeatsReflectionGainsWeightBiggerMirrorsCuriosityYesterdayTricksMeals Author:Jenni Schaefer

“I'm quite good at water skiing. Dave Clark, from the 1960s band Dave Clark Five, taught me how to water ski in Spain one year. I can do jumps too. I used to go to a club in Heathrow, but I don't do it any more, as it's given me a bad back. I was brought up in Poole, Dorset, so I've always loved watersports.” YearsI CanUsedGivenWaterCan DoFiveTaughtBandClubsSpain1960sSkisDaveSkiingWater Skiing Author:Tony Blackburn
