Question

Complete the text with the correct form of the verbs in brackets.
I had just started a famous celebrity-sponsored diet when I met nutritionist Gemma Starkey and asked her
what she thought about it. “If you had started this diet three weeks ago, you 1 .....................................................................
(lose) 8-10 kg by now,” she said. “But, if you continued with the diet for two months or more, you
2 ..................................................................... (be) weak and ill because your body would be missing vital nutrients.”
It appears this is the problem with most diets. When your body 3 ..................................................................... (realise)
that something is missing, it sends a message to the brain to get it. That’s when we give up on the
diet and, after a few days of feasting, we end up back where we started. So, do diets work?
“If they 4 ..................................................................... (work), we would all be slim,” said Gemma. “I wish
I 5 ..................................................................... (sound) more positive, but I’m trying to be honest. However, if you
6 ..................................................................... (want) to lose weight, I can help you. Eat less and eat earlier in the day.
When you eat in the evening, your body 7 ..................................................................... (have) time to digest the food before
you go to sleep. Research has found that, if you eat later in the evening, you 8 .....................................................................
(gain) weight. Your cholesterol levels will also increase and, if that 9 ..................................................................... (happen),
the chance of you having a heart attack will also increase.”
If only I 10 ..................................................................... (hear) all this from her earlier. I could just have had half a bar of
chocolate and a small-size pizza.
