A second commented: "You look fabulous Fern, super trim, but above all your beauty from within shines through," while a third commented: "You're so much fun @fernbritton. All that running and all that sweat and 'you' did it all by yourself, on your own and - whilst we delude ourselves that 'others' or 'gurus' can save us, when it was always within us. You look fabulous!"
