EXERCISE 4. MATCH THESE LIFESTYLE PROBLEMS WITH THE PIECES OF ADVICE BELOW

THE PROBLEMS:

1. My hair always looks lifeless and oily. If I wash it in the morning, I need to wash it again when I come home from work. And I can't seem to get rid of the spots on my face. 2. If I buy a new pair of trousers, they don't fit me after a couple of months. So now I buy all my trousers one size too big. That way they last twice as long. 3. I get really breathless if I have to go upstairs nowadays. I used to be able to run upstairs. Now I have to stop halfway up and have a rest. 4. When I come home from work, the first thing I do every evening is pour myself a large gin and tonic. It's the only way I can relax.

THE ADVICE:

a) You'd be far better playing squash or tennis after work. That would help you relaх far better. You need less stress in your life.

b) You're smoking too much. At the moment you are breathless. What will you do if the doctor tells you it's cancer?

c) Look carefully at your diet. Are you eating too many oily foods, like chips or potato crisps?

d) You are simply eating too much. If you are putting on weight so quickly, you must simply eat less and eat more healthily. Try cutting out all sugar and butter immediately, then start cutting out other things, like cream. Change to semi-skimmed milk.
