Angry medical professionals have hit out at the manufacturers of a new diet patch.
The National Obesity Forum, which lists doctors, nurses and dieticians among its members, have branded the marketing strategy for The Pink Patch ‘dangerous’.
Now, if you have not seen the new adverts, I’ll be surprised. They seem to be all over the internet at the moment.
Anne Hathaway ’starved’ herself for film role
June 13th, 2008 15:35
We had no idea fashion journalism was such a difficult job.
Not only do you have to travel around the world and hang out with supermodels, apparently you have to be as thin as them to. Or, at least, that’s how Hollywood sees it.
Why else would they take one of their thinnest stars and virtually make her starve herself just to play the role of a magazine hack?
Half of UK men trying to lose weight
June 9th, 2008 15:57
Who said men could not careless about how their bodies look?
In fact, according to the most predictable health and diet survey since yesterday, men are just as keen as women to get rid of their flabby arms and stomachs as women.
Or at least in the UK they are. Not that we are saying other men around the world are not interested in shedding the pounds. No way!!
Dieting Jack Black’s naked ambition
June 9th, 2008 14:48
Someone please give Jack Black a cheeseburger.
Why? Well, for starters, shoving it in his big, fat chops might shut him up.
Secondly, it could be the only way we can stop him from doing nude scenes. That’s right - nude scenes!!
‘Nude scenes’ and ‘Jack Black’ - if ever there was four words that should not appear together in the same sentence it’s that right there.
Find your true source of motivation

“Incentive, inspiration, drive, enthusiasm, impetus, stimulus, spur, impulse, and driving force are just some of the synonyms I found when I looked up the word motivation in the dictionary.” Read more of this extract from celeb trainer, David Kirsch’s new book, The Ultimate New York Body Plan.
One of the prerequisites to successfully completing any challenge is motivation. Without it, any challenge, including this one, will ultimately become too daunting to see to completion.
Even the Med is full of fatties

The Mediterranean way of life has long been hailed as the healthiest for brain and body and now it could be put on the world heritage list. But with Spain facing its own obesity crisis, should we really be bigging it up?
Spain – along with buddies Italy, Greece and Morocco – reckons the Mediterranean diet is so traditional and good for us that it should be put on the world heritage list.
But what exactly constitutes the Mediterranean diet?
Pregnant man, Thomas Beatie, has had the baby
And if we were a tabloid we’d put man in snarky apostrophes, but we’re just a little bit classier here at DietPixie.
Of course we all know the story. It’s age old. Man meets woman. Falls in love. They decide to have a baby. Man used to be woman until sex change op. Well, partial sex change op. Man still has some of his old womanly bits knocking about. Man carries baby. Goes on Oprah. And now… man has given birth to baby girl.
It’s a beautiful thing.
If only more men gave birth to babies. Maybe then we’d get a bit more bloody understanding about how much it Bloody Hurts. Oh well.
Thomas, 34, was born a lady, but took hormones and had his breasts removed to live as a man. He always hoped to get pregnant one day though, so he kept his female sex organs, telling Oprah it was down to his “human desire” and “right to have my own biological child.”
Some stuffy old squares didn’t agree though, largely the Christian right of America who went flipping apeshit.
His wife Nancy, 45, already has grown-up children and cannot have more biologically after having a hysterectomy.
Look out for exclusive pics in whichever glossy mag has the deepest pockets, very soon.
