  • Hello, and welcome to the English We Speak.

  • My name's Neil.

  • Helen.

  • Oh, Helen.

  • That was a very heavy sigh.

  • A heavy sigh?

  • By that you mean a big sigh?

  • Well, I suppose it was.

  • It's just I've been trying to lose some weight, but my diet is not working.

  • So how heavy are you exactly?

  • I'm not going to tell you my weight, ok?

  • But my advice is to cut down on the biscuits, eat more fruit and stick to the diet.

  • Yeah, yeah, yeah.

  • Sorry, am I getting too heavy?

  • Heavy?

  • You mean you are putting on weight too?

  • No.
