Hi Danielle, The one thing that has so far impressed me about that particular programme is they appear to fully sort out problems for people successfully. I hope that it works out well for you both.

The ones they broadcast on the TV programme are fully sorted out. I imagine that there are many other candidates whose situations are only partly improved, or not improved at all, and obviously these will not be chosen for broadcasting.

That's not to say it isn't worth getting in touch with them, just that you shouldn't expect miracles from a TV programme.

Apparently this week they are looking for 'over weight women with Type II diabetes' .. I do hope that they get some volunteers that have coeliac disease as this might be of benefit to people who are struggling with several conditions.
