'There are pills we can give you to lower your blood pressure and cholesterol,' the doctor announced, 'but once you start taking them, you can never stop.'Any alternatives? I wondered. 'Well, you may be able to make a difference with diet, but it will take a massive effort,' she said briskly, clearly doubtful of my ability to do anything demanding self-discipline. 'You'll have to drink far less, lose some weight and eat lots of oily fish.'I decided I was going to prove I could control my own body. Armed with a diet sheet I marched out,determined to be beaten.When I got home and looked at the sheet, however, my resolve crumbled.

Essentially, I had to cut out salt and saturated fats, The list of what I couldn't eat

was gigantic: no roast potatoes, no potato chips with a drink before dinner - no drink before dinner for that matter. No bacon, butter or sausages. No desserts, no chocolate or cheese (except Camembert as a treat), no sugarcoated breakfast cereals.

By this stage the colour had drained from my face. Red meat rarely, cut down on eggs and only skimmed milk. Worse was to come. Not more than 21 units of alcohol a week.

I'd never really seen myself in a tracksuit, but I poured my cup of tea down the kitchen sink.

My breakfast became decaffeinated coffee and kippers - an oily fish, you see. Lunch was sardines with a tomato and onion salad.Going out to eat became difficult: I couldn't even have pizza because of that melted cheese.

But slowly I cheered up. I discovered a passion for sushi, and I could eat any amount of pasta as long as I was careful with the sauce. I embarked on a love affair with salad nicoise, even though I had to leave the eggs and olives on the eggs and olives on the side, and became a herbal-tea addict.
