The way to lose weight is to eat less, so I ate a lot less for a month and lost a lot of weight pretty quickly.

There is a tendency to try to dumb everything down and turn everything into a one-paragraph press release or even less, just a slogan.

Whatever the reason for any one individual's tendency to gain weight, the only way to lose the weight is to eat less and exercise more.

To the former child migrants, who came to Australia from a home far away, led to believe this land would be a new beginning, when only to find it was not a beginning, but an end, an end of innocence - we apologise and we are sorry. To the mothers who lost the maternal right to love and care for their child - we apologise, and we are sorry.

Never order food in excess of your body weight.

I will go to the next election saying to Australians, vote for me, vote for the Liberal Party, and I will become your PM. So I'm offering myself as the alternative PM - that's one way people describe the Leader of the Opposition - but I'm not in politics for myself to realize a personal ambition.
