Default Satellite viewers - Discovery health channel

Discovery run a programme called Weight Matters hosted by Vanessa Feltz. On the episode I saw this evening they were following a chef who was himself just starting Atkins. They are going to watch his progress over coming weeks.

If you can get the channel it might be worth a look.

I have no idea whether this is current or a repeat I just happened on it while channel hopping.

Hi

Thanks for that information...what day of the week did you see the programme ... and what time...

Is it on every day or once a week...? I will have a look.

Thanks

I saw it on Thursday evening about 6.30pm/7pm

I do not know exactly when. I think there is a discovery +1 hour as well. Sorry I can be of no more help.

Thumbs up Thanks - Great News

{Rustpot: .... a chef who was himself just starting Atkins. They are going to watch his progress over coming weeks. }

That is great news. The results could lead to a fast-track change of attitudes to LCing in the UK. Anyone seeing further updates please keep posting.

Take care.
