We gave you the chance to put your weight-loss dilemmas to the Cook Yourself Thin presenters. Here's the advice that Sal gave to Laura.
"Hi, I'm a carboholic. I can live without cakes, sweets etc but I love starchy carbs.
"Is there a diet plan I can follow that doesn't compromise my carb intake too much?
"Thanks! Laura"
"Forget diets - they are too depressing for words, as often you deprive yourself of foods you love and then you crave them and before you know it you fall of the wagon, so to speak.
"It's about getting back in the kitchen and cooking again but cleverly... so if you love pasta dishes then think about making homemade tomato sauces rather than creamy ones and adding vegetables to it to balance the meal out.
"One of my favourites is a good homemade tomato sauce with chopped black olives, tabasco and chopped anchovies with say tuna.
"If you want a creamy pasta idea try my carbonara in the book... it doesn't compromise on the flavour but is certainly less calories.
"With regards to cakes etc... try making your own because you then know what has gone into it.
"Try Harry's chocolate and beetroot cake as it is so intense that I even struggled to eat more than one slice, and I love chocolate and cakes.
"Happy cooking!"
The awesome foursome show how eating healthily doesn't have to mean differently.
