A recent survey has shown that women tend to brood and have negative thoughts about their bodies 252 times a week on an average.
One hundred women aged 35 to 69 were given clickers in an experiment to register each time they worried about the ageing process.Over seven days, the average number of clicks was 252.
The survey showed that on average women had negative thoughts 36 times a day.
The study was devised by keep-fit instructor Irene Estry and psychologist Emma Kenny to see if a looks-obsessed society creates ageism and pressure to stay youthful.
