I agree she looks good however... The camera angle is always down as is the lighting hiding any extra chins / etc is shadow (in fact to me her face doesn't look that different from the photo above); the green cardi she is wearing shows black t-shirt at the neck & hem which flatters, (a great trick I use it myself!
) the jeans are ok, but you don't really see them, but they are tight, look at the panel across her tummy when she's walking, also look at how she's sitting in them.
I agree she's looking good/better and I think that "some of what you fancy" is a good idea, and it does seem to be working for her.
