sheet; set aside. Sift flour, baking poder and salt into a large
bowl. With your fingers, rub in butter until mixture is crumbly. Make
a well in center of mixture; add milk and mix with a fork to make a
dough that BARELY holds together (you may need to press dough
together with your hands). Turn out onto a floured surface and knead
lightly just until smooth. Roll out with a floured rolling pin or pat
dough with your hands to make a round about 3/4-inch thick. Cut in
rounds with a 2-inch fluted or plain cookie cutter. Arrange 1 to 1

8 to 10 minutes or until well risen and golden. Transfer to a wire
rack and cool 5 minutes. Split and serve warm with clotted cream (if
you can get it!) or sweet butter or whipped cream, plus strawberry
preserves. Makes about 12 scones. VARIATIONS: Rich Oven Scones: Add 1
tablespoon sugar to the dry ingredients. In place of the 2/3 cup
milk, use a mixture of 1 lightly beaten egg and 5 tablespoons milk.

Dieting tips

If you really want to regain your youthful figure and enhance your overall well-being, then you really should decide on a carefully planned healthy-minded meal plan. If possible, this should include five helpings of fruit and vegetables daily and also incorporate the right combination of carbohydrate, fat, and proteins.

When devising a daily routine, you have to make efforts to cut down your intake of fats, refined carbohydrates and salt.

When chosing foods for dieting, people frequently look at department store and well known foods labelled 'low-fat'. To do this is most certainly an error, since a food item might be reduced in fat content, but whilst still remaining much too high in carbohydrates.

One useful tip is to drink plenty of water. Every now and then in the course of a normal morning, you think that you are a little peckish when in reality you just want a restorative glass of water or orange juice. The feelings of being thirsty and being hungry are quite similar, albeit one of them leads to weight gain and the alternative does not.

As an alternative to paying too much attention to the many unhealthy foods you should ban from your meal plan, concentrate on the nutritionally sound foods that you can bring into your daily routine. If you are able to insert a few healthy grains and vegetables into your meal plan, you'll soon find that you feel full and have a significantl;y lower likelihood of falling prey to those damaging between meals sweets and chocolates.
