British TV presenter Fern Britton was adament that life is short for ‘boring diets’ and proudly admitted to being a size 16. And she’s managed to de-bunk any ideas that overweight women are always unhappy with their size.

But Britton, 50, has changed her mind, apparently, and seems to be shrinking before viewers eyes. According to this article from The Daily Mail, she’s lost the weight because she’s taken up cycling and walking. Good for her — she looks great.

But to her insistence that life is too short for boring diets, I say this: Life is too short to be unhealthy and unhappy, whatever your weight may be. If you’re happy and living a healthful life at size 16, all the power to you, but don’t kid yourself into believing that eating junk food every day will make you happy.
