changing foods may affect the proportions of "stuff" being processed by the body - changes to the biochemistry of the body can have "interesting" effects - Think about what a powerful curry can do to your GI tract if you have not eaten one for a while !! >:)

UK (Bum Bag) = US (Fanny Pack) UK (Braces) = US (Suspenders) UK (Spend a Penny*) = US (Take a whizz) UK (Sod Off) = US (Take a hike) UK (Oops) = US (DOH!) UK (bit of bother) = US ( World War 2) *because the first public toilets required the use of an old style penny coin to open the cubicle door

To lose weight -* you simply need to eat at a calorie deficit while making sure sure that the diet is balanced . * as part of the above - use a food scale - it make measuring far more accurate ... * Ignore the "evangalicists" (is that even a real word?) who will be talking about eating clean (whatever that means) and the…

Suffering a long, slow, decline of bodily functions culminating in several years of bed ridden existence unable to do the simplest things for myself (not even able to change the tv channel) before dying an undignified death. But worse than that would be to have my children witness that decline . Sorry very morbid - but it…

* The whole drink shedloads of water was de-bunked years ago . * any form of fluid intake is sufficient- most actually comes from your food .. * your body knows how much water it needs - it tells you to drink more by making you thirsty . and gets rid of excess by telling you to go for a wee .. If you feel comfortable -…

if you are measuring weight loss then there is absolutely no point in doing it daily... weigh your self weekly (on same day , at same time of day after same routine.) (mine is 7:45 monday morning , get up have a #1 and #2 and then weigh myself ) daily fluctuations in weight are normal based on water retention etc .. (and…

Tell her you are waiting for her to be ready and that when she is you will be fully 100% at her side . Maybe the fact that she knows someone will be there when the time comes will help.

the whole 8 glasses of water thing was de-bunked years ago . The original study said we should make sure that we take in the equivalent of X (x because i don't know the exact number) litres of water per day - but it was never meant to mean we had to DRINK X litres of water per day . most fluid intake comes from the food…

so in answer to the OPs question .. The answer is "No it does not work" (please do not ignore collective wisdom - which a lot of people do- because it is not the answer you want) To lose weight -* you simply need to eat at a calorie deficit while making sure sure that the diet is balanced . * Ignore the "evangalicists" (is…

The reference to "The Curator" is double clever - In "The bells of St Johns" (where we first meet Clara and she doesn't die) there is a book seen called "Summer Falls" written by Amelia Williams (this is of course Mrs Amy Pond) - "Summer Falls" is available as an E-book from the Beeb and has a very "Doctor like" character…
