The propaganda is evil, isn't it? I despair.

I do not understand to why she is getting preasured into loosing "the baby fat" she looks good as she is,

I have 2 children, and i have struggled over the years to try and loose the baby fat, i still have not managed it,

All i know is that if i feel good and look good then what does it matter anyway

I agree she should be left alone,

No wonder people get paranoid. We're not allowed to be human, and normal and just *be* any more. Well stuff that and pass the chocolate, reading all that makes me want to stick a little fat finger up at the lot of them and just enjoy my life. Nobody ever said on their deathbed, I'm sure, "I wish I'd just lost that few pounds before I died."

I blame the likes of Jordan - they pop out a baby and then resolve to starve themselves thin again within a week.
Claire knows shes not naturally thin and knows she has problems with her weight (she was under A LOT of pressure in Steps to be thin - forced was a word Faye used) - but shes clearly happy and thats all that matters. Trust OK to try and spoil the happy event.
She'd only given birth 8 weeks earlier in those pics (even tho they were printed 4 months after she'd had him) - but people still (obv not you tho) feel the need to pick at her. Beggars belief, it really does.

mika has got it right

Big girl you are beautiful

You take your skinny girl
Feel like I'm gonna die
'Cause a real woman
Needs a real man here's why

You take your girl
And multiply her by four
Now a whole lotta woman
Needs a whole lot more

Big girls you are beautiful
Big girls you are beautiful
Big girls you are beautiful
Big girls you are beautiful

I Think She Shouldnt Go Skinny But Could Do With Loosing Some Weight!!! My Mum Has Had 4 Children And Is still Keeping Her Orignal size 12 Figure In Shape So That Should't Give Claire Eny Excuses!

Why should she lose weight though? Who says that she has to be a size 12? If she is healthy and happy, why put herself through the stress and misery of trying to diet when she has enough on her plate with a new baby?

Your mum may well be someone who doesn't need to try to keep her figure, but many of us haven't been a size 12 this side of the millenium, and I for one have never had one baby, let alone four.

Why should you need ab excuse to be a normal, natural size 16?

Hey QueenSimplyBe,
Don't let stupid people bring you down. They will always be stupid and unhappy and living in their shallow world. People like SlimSexySuccessfulFaye are victims. Feel sorry for them. They will never have as much depth or sensitivity or intelligence as you. You've got the gift of sight and you're free from their narrow view. You have the whole world, they have a narrow little dry old strip that never changes or grows until the day they die.

Some journalists just don't know what common sense is anymore. If I were the one that could make the law, I would probably give them death penalty by lethal injection. I don't see how that woman's weight is the tabloids business. Maybe I am blind, but I think they to look for their long lost soul.

This is all completely uncalled for. I was about 14 when i discovered STEPS. In the states they were a bit harder to come by. But from the second i heard Claires voice and saw her. GAH!, one of those teenage crush. Their wonderful arnt they? lol. Shes a beautiful woman no mater what she looks like. Besides ive never understood why men go after those nasty sticks of woman anyways. I like me some curves. *wink* Claire Richards will always hold a place in my heart.
