TOM KERRIDGE’S LOSE WEIGHT FOR GOOD
BBC2, 8pm
At his heaviest, chef Tom was almost 30 stone, before finally deciding to do something about it. He cut out carbs, quit booze and hit the gym, shedding 12 stone. The before and after photos are quite startling – he looks like a completely different man.
But Tom appreciates this strict regime is not for everyone, and in this series he has been helping struggling dieters to lose weight for good with his calorie-controlled recipes. As he chats to the dieters, he totally understands what they are going through – and he also knows the recipes need to taste pretty damn good if they are going to keep the crisps and beer at bay.
Making great strides in tonight’s “special treats” episode, he rustles up a chocolate custard pudding.
Vicar Jenny and event manager Sandra are the first to try it – but will it satisfy their monster chocolate cravings?
