HAIRY DIETERS - HOW TO LOVE FOOD AND LOSE WEIGHT

OK ... in Australia we haven't seen the Hairy Dieters on TV yet. So this entry will bring you up to speed.

Last TV series of the Hairy Bikers was "BAKEATION" where the lads toured Europe feasting on pies, pastries and cakes like it was a race to the Coronary Heart Disease clinic.

And this is how they looked ...

BEFORE

The series currently running in England is a 4 part series called ...

"HAIRY DIETERS - HOW TO LOVE FOOD AND LOSE WEIGHT"

And check out the lads on the cover !!!

AFTER

This transformation took 12 weeks.  So ... what did they do ???

Well ... they love food and love to eat. So, starving themselves or eating foods more akin to animal husbandry is OUT OF THE QUESTION.

Simply, they analysed and changed the way they cook.

They still eat curries, pies, pastries, rich meat stews, hearty breakfasts, sumptuous desserts and treats and takeaways (or Fakeaways as their version). But much healthier versions, sacrificing nothing in flavour, texture or the sheer delight of eating great food.

The book of Hairy Dieters (cover above) has rocketed to top best selling book in UK.

You can buy the Cookbook here, which is were I ordered mine. Unfortunately, it is currently sold out so it won't get posted until they re-stock.

Another BEFORE shot

I have been following this "food revolution" online and feedback by those that have tried the recipes, endorse that these meals taste great and bring weight reduction results.

THE CATCH:

Yeah, I know ... you have been asking yourself "What's the catch?"

1. You won't buy this food at a "Drive-Thru" ... so you have to cook it yourself.

2. Most of us will lose weight  just by eating these meals. However, exercise (even moderate) will speed the process along.

THE UPSIDE:

There are many. Mostly, you will cook and eat great meals ... the foods you (and your family) already love.

You will become healthier, look better and weigh less. You may even become a better cook ... I know I will.

I now understand calories and if 100 calories is a lot or not ... go figure !

OK ... if you want to know anymore ... follow the links on this page.

P.S. 

I am not eating these meals yet ... so I will record a 'weigh-in' for the record and as my starting point. 

So with embarassment and shame ... here it is ...
