MIMI SPENCER invented the 5:2 Fast diet with Dr Michael Mosley. Now she shares food routine that means she's happier in her own body than ever at 57... and a dark warning on weight-loss jabs
When I wrote about intermittent fasting in The Fast Diet with the late Michael Mosley in 2012, we often stated, sagely and with good reason, that weight-loss took effort, commitment, focus and loads of boring, difficult things that no one really wanted to do. There is no silver bullet, we said, no magic wand.

Weekly spin classes may be more effective and affordable than physiotherapy, study finds
New research indicates that weekly group spin classes may be more beneficial and cost-effective than standard physiotherapy for individuals with hip osteoarthritis. A study published in The Lancet Rheumatology involved 211 participants, comparing an eight-week cycling and education program, known as Chain, with usual physiotherapy care. The Chain program participants demonstrated statistically significant improvements in patient-reported function compared to those receiving standard physiotherapy. Experts from Bournemouth University and University Hospitals Dorset suggest this method could reduce NHS waiting times for physiotherapy and alleviate financial pressure. While the Chain intervention has been available since 2013, researchers emphasize that longer-term benefits and broader generalizability warrant further investigation.
