Nutritious diet... regular exercise... Who needs them?
All I require in order to boost my health and well-being is another pair of high-heeled shoes.

Short people suffer worse physical and mental health than those of normal height, scientists claim.
They also claim shorter people would feel much better about themselves if they were only marginally taller, and so could improve their health just by wearing high-heeled shoes.
The researchers, led by Torsten Christensen at Novo Nordisk in Denmark, based their analysis of the responses of 14,416 people to a Department of Health survey.
The team, which included Prof Peter Clayton at Manchester University, found that people in the shortest height category - men shorter than 5ft 4in and women shorter than 5ft - said they experienced significantly worse health than people of normal height.
