After three decades of being overweight, I started talking to food at the start of this year and have since lost over ten stone.

 Zimbabwe's ruling party has sacked President Robert Mugabe as its leader, officials say. Zanu-PF has appointed ex-vice-president Emmerson Mnangagwa, who had been fired by Mr Mugabe two weeks ago. The sacking of Mr Mnangagwa had prompted an extraordinary chain of events as the military intervened to block Mr Mugabe, 93, from installing his wife, Grace, in his place. Mr Mugabe is set to meet military leaders on Sunday and a motorcade has been seen leaving his private residence. Tens of thousands of Zimbabweans had attended street protests on Saturday, demonstrating against the Mugabes. BBC correspondent Andrew Harding, at the Zanu-PF meeting, tweeted a video of people dancing after the decision to remove Mr Mugabe was taken. He said cheering erupted as the decision was announced, although the move has yet to be formalised.

Timothy Affleck , the father of Ben Affleck and Casey Affleck , is sounding off in a rare interview, revealing that he believes that fame has taken a major "toll" on both of his famous sons. In new interview with Grazia , Timothy, who revealed that he's had his own battle against the bottle, said that he attributes many of his sons' issues, specifically Ben's well-documented issues with alcohol, to the gilded facade of Tinsel Town.

  How amazing would it be to find the perfect partner to spend your life with (or at least a long while), in absolute bliss? It’s not going to happen by some movie-moment magical events, so let me show you how you can take your love life into your own hands. A well-matched partner won't meet all of your needs. As there's no such thing as a perfect partner, you're shooting for about 85%.  This means that you may meet someone who ticks all the boxes except physically he's not quite what you imagined.  That's OK. As a product of this culture, you probably have a warped definition of attraction that could use some redefining anyway. Likewise, she may not be as socially adapt as you had imagined.  My point is that these aren't deal breakers, so while you're creating your vision list, it's absolutely essential to know that your future partner won't meet all of your desires and that you'll have to sacrifice somewhere.  ...
