My book didn't arrive this morning and when I tracked the order on Amazon I see they have sold out!! Hope mine is already on its way.

I have watched a couple of the programmes but I cant get past their hair and beards all over the place in the kitchen - a little grooming gents please to go with your newly svelte bodies and this is coming from a woman married to a beardy but a beautifully trimmed one.

Bummer, tattynan. I'm waiting for mine from Amazon for £10.49. sad
I liked the series though. DH actually peeped out from behind his fishing magazine and we've tried a couple of the recipes smile

The book people website has the hairy dieters book on offer for £4.99 at the moment.

I shall just have to stare longingly at the bottle, Nanadogsbody. wine sad

Good luck merlotgran..the salmon with chilli ginger sauce is yummy but you might want to trade in the merlot for a lighter wine to go with it.

PS only a suggestion!

Oh Dear. It's the Great British Bake Off tonight. I do love that programme but I did far too much baking when the last series was on.

I've just seen the first episode on iplayer and was really impressed by their honesty. I'm now off to Amazon to buy the book grin

Both DH and I need to lose weight. I'm having blood tests for various things next week because I have suddenly started to pile on the weight even though I eat healthily and just enjoy the occasional glass of wine. Some of my symptons point towards hypothyroidism so we shall see. hmm In the meantime I thought I'd catch up with the Hairy Bikers on iplayer because DH loses heart very quickly with diets. He loves their programmes so this might keep him interested. Looks like I'll be ordering the book as well.

I have actually served some of the recipes to my BH and he's never even noticed, indeed he commented on how tasty the lasagne was. Shysal, I think the secret is all the herbs and spices they use. Yum! wink

I have bought the book too, it has some tasty-looking recipes. On my alternate day fasting diet (see Horizon thread) I can consume 500 cals for lunch on 'fast' days, so it is helpful to have the calories already calculated. I ate a variation of their breakfast on Sunday, which allowed for a dessert too.

Bought this book over a week ago and it's a veritable treasure trove of great, tasty recipes. I'm just eating a sensible breakfast and lunch then using o e of their recipes for dinner, and can already notice a difference of a couple of pounds in only a week.

Would definitely recommend.
