Aston University Hospital

Advantages: lose weight well
Disadvantages: over the following 7 days you put it all back on...plus more

...This diet is used in hospitals to allow surgeons to operate on people with weight problems when the need for the operation is immediate, such as heart surgery.It allows a person to lose weight quickly and with little effort, but it is intended for people who are in hospital, who are vertually inactive, not someone who is carring on a normal routine.For a normal person to use this diet over prolonged peroids would cause lightheadedness, dizzyness,and fainting to name just a few symptoms.If the diet is used for one week, then the following week any weight lost will return. I'm sorry if this disappoints people out there, but if you are anything like me, you'll try all types of diet in desperation, but no matter how desperate you get its not worth getting ill over. Unfortuanetly the only way to lose weight is to change your diet... Read review

...Glasgow Dental Hospital and School was founded in 1879 and has been churning out dentists since 1948.

There are also buses that go between the Dental School and the main campus of Glasgow University. Driving is more difficult due to congestion, and parking fees are high - plus the area is well patrolled by traffic wardens. There are a few... Read review

Advantages: Very cheap, small packet so it is discreet
Disadvantages: not always able to detect a very early pregnancy

...I have just been reading through some of my earlier ops and I really cannot believe how awful some of them are!! I am in the process of updating and editting the worst! This one being one of the first. There have been a number of times in the past where me and hubby have had concerns that I may have been (or hoping) to be pregnant. I am not one of these people that can wait for a result from the doctor, I HAVE to know straight away. I have found that there are a lot of different tests available on the market these days and many of them are very expensive. This test is very simple to use, very accurate (in fact it is virtually the same sort of test they use in hospitals and clinics) and best of all it is not all that expensive. For a box containing 1 test they are priced at £2.99 in my local chemist and for a box with 2 tests... Read review
