Our fitness expert, Myke Gray, is frequently asked how much water you should really drink to achieve great health and fitness. Here he tells you everything you need to know.

Sarah Harding is following her bandmate, Cheryl Cole, down the same old dusty trail where weight lost is inversely proportional to column inches gained.

Despite sounding like a snazzy belt, a gastric band is actually a very serious bit of kit that involves a hardcore (and dangerous) operation.

A classic example of “I’ll show him what he nearly lost” gone wrong? Or just the impact of a high-profile split followed by highly-criticised reunion, following her ‘love-rat’ husband’s indiscretions? Either way, Cheryl Cole is skinny as.

You don’t have to spend hours on the treadmill or go on a punishing diet to start getting into shape.
