The scepticism you imply is on the nail, leeneia. A great corrective to some of the twaddle we've been served up recently.

Wulfie, the moment has long passed and the spat was skilfully sidestepped days ago. Live with it and take a low-fat chill pill.

If you're a good weight and you feel healthy and your guts are healthy, you're probably doing it right. If you have a medical condition indicating the need for an alteration in diet, you should be consulting a real doctor (not the guy down the gym or your personal trainer or your best mate or a diet book). If you just need to lose weight, eat less food. That's me, that last one. But God, I love my grub and I'm weak...
