Tom Kerridge's Dopamine Diet: My low-carb, stay-happy way to lose weight
Thanks to his Dopamine Diet, Michelin-starred chef Tom Kerridge has shed eleven stone over the past three years. That's the same as 70 bags of sugar. If you're struggling with your weight and need to shift unhealthy pounds, this new approach makes it easy, and is guaranteed to make you feel happier in the process.
Most people find it hard to keep to a long-term diet, but this one is different. The recipes feature ingredients that trigger the release of the 'happy hormone' dopamine in your brain, so it's a diet that will make you feel good! Tom's 'dopamine heroes' include dairy products such as double cream and yoghurt, good-quality meats including beef, chicken and turkey, and even chocolate. By ditching alcohol and starchy carbs in favour of plenty of protein, fresh fruit and veg, you will be eating meals that will help you shed the weight, whilst offering a satisfying intensity of flavour.
Treats in store for Dopamine Dieters include spinach, bacon and mint soup; roasted onion salad with fried halloumi; shepherd's pie with creamy cauliflower topping; soy glazed cod with chilli, garlic and ginger; braised beef with horseradish; Chinese pork hot pot; and chocolate mousse with sesame almond biscuits. These are recipes that don't feel like diet food, and can be shared with friends and family. It worked for Tom and it can work for you. Give it a go! And lose weight the Dopamine Diet way.
Yes, I do that and sometimes it comes out better than the original.If I don't have a minor ingredient I will always adapt a recipe and use what I have got.

There are a few bits on the menu that could be LCHF, I'd have to check if I visited. Bit out of my price range though !I've always fancied a meal at the hand of flowers, does he offer 2* lchf there?
@daisyduck - well I ought to be slim and happy already as I've been eating nearly all the yummy foods on your list already for many years and on LCHF for nearly three years... But I'm still a fatty, and currently a very miserable, unhappy old biddy. I'll have a look at the book too, though I don't usually buy recipe books when I can adapt existing recipes or find freebies on the web.
Dark chocolate also apparently can help with insulin resistance so is a double whammy...

Indeed! When I went for a 'light lunch' at his other establishment the coach, I was told, 'this is a tasting menu, madam' and found that each mini taste was about 12 quid! The Coach is supposed to be the cafe version of the hand and flowers!!!Lol imagine a tenner would just about buy you a coffee there now!!
