Ok again this is a sketch for a comic on healthy lifestyle habits for kids, about a kid who's overweight. I'd like to follow the game here and play on words that's happening with the term "reservas" but not sure that works in English. Anyone can suggest an equivalent for this? (its for teenagers in the UK, thanks
