Osman and Stephanie
This week Gillian meets 29-year-old Osman Dualeh and his fiancée, 23-year-old Stephanie Holmes. Police sergeant Os and drama teacher Steph have been together for five years.
They live together in Merseyside and while their relationship has grown, so have their waistlines. Between them they are more than 12 stone overweight. Both were svelte when they first met but since getting together they have picked up each other's bad habits and settled into a life on the sofa. Neither one cooks as they both claim not to have the energy or time.
This week Gillian meets 29-year-old Osman Dualeh and his fiancée, 23-year-old Stephanie Holmes. Police sergeant Os and drama teacher Steph have been together for five years.
They live together in Merseyside and while their relationship has grown, so have their waistlines. Between them they are more than 12 stone overweight. Both were svelte when they first met but since getting together they have picked up each other's bad habits and settled into a life on the sofa. Neither one cooks as they both claim not to have the energy or time.
The result is a diet of takeaways, chocolate and huge portions - a combination that has seen their weight explode and their love life decline. This young couple plan to get married and have children - but they have no energy or lust for life, or each other. After a hard day at work, Os and Steph come home and are too tired to do anything other than eat and sleep. Their usual routine revolves around sitting in front of the telly, ordering a pizza, and then straight to bed - but only to go to sleep.
These two couch potatoes need help and luckily Gillian is on hand. But can she get them off the sofa and onto the highway to health?
