If you click on the story, you might get prompted to install the app, but if you decline ('no thanks') you'll go straight through to the story on the Guardian site. And this should only happen the first time, anyway. There are some FAQs here which may help: http://www.guardian.co.uk/info/2011/sep/22/guardian-facebook-app-faq (Please note, I'm not providing support for the G FB app on this, my personal site!)

Good post, but the problem I have with apps such as the Guardian one, is that if I see an article a friend has posted, I can not read it without installing the app myself. I don't want to install the app, I to read the article the only way (I know of) is to copy and paste the headline into Google. Am I missing something? To me it seems a regression from someone sharing a link on Facebook and letting me view the information how I'd like in it's native format - the Guardian site. Hi Meg.

Thank you. Normally even the thought of a diet makes me crave things I shouldn't have, and now I've had two babies (maybe I shouldn't have had those) a simple strategy of activity versus reward, familiar through toddler sticker charts and graspable by a brain fugged by 4 years of broken sleep, actually sounds like a plausible way forward. Once I'm sleeping again... This actually makes me want to to give a sensible weight loss plan a go. Thank you.
