My wife who is quite slim and weighs a fairly normal 9 stone recently visited hospital to investigate a minor abdominal problem. Thankfully after an MRI scan and other tests was given the all clear.
However much to our surprise we received a letter today from the consultant confirming the satisfactory test results, but advising her to aim to lose some weight.
His recommendation ..... Try to lose 1 stone every 4 to 6 months over the next two years.
Taken to the extreme this would leave her weighing just 3 stone in two years time. She's already quite slim. I cant imagine what she would look like at 3 stones!
Maybe we will on this occasion ignore the doctors advice!
