The message
from The Natural Philosopher contains these words:

I once saw this girl who had lost a remarkable amount of wight -
actually I saw her a few days ago, and she is still remarkably well
formed after over 12 years since that time..the secret..? "Eat less" she
said....

Ah, yes, the "If you don't put it in your mouth it can't go round your
waist" diet.
