Secret Eaters on RTÉ2 – Thursday August 23rd at 20.00

Series 2, Episode 7

This week, brother and sister Emma and Matthew from Camberley in Surrey are under the Secret Eaters’ spotlight. Matthew is very sporty, mountain-biking at weekends and going to the gym three times a week while Emma restricts her food intake on weekdays to just a few hundred calories a day. So why are these two putting on weight? They’re convinced they’re making the right choices with their food, but Emma’s habit of picking while cooking, and Matthew’s willingness to indulge in chocolate cake immediately after exercise, seem to suggest otherwise.

Once they learn the shocking truth of what they’re really eating, will these siblings be able to stick to a healthy eating plan, start winning their fight with the flab and look forward to a healthier future?

And when it comes to eating, once we pop most of us can’t stop. So in this episode our secret cameras won’t just be concentrating on Emma and Matthew’s dietary downfalls, we’ll also be laying mischievous and tasty traps for the public proving just how easy it is for us ALL to succumb to secret eating.

 

 

Series Overview

Britain has a big, fat problem. Only America is getting fatter than we are faster than we are.

Though a nation obsessed with our waistlines, for many people huge weight gain is a complete mystery.   How are we putting weight on when we’re convinced we live on salad and sparkling water? This series proves just how many of us are in denial about what we eat and hide the extent of our eating from our families and ourselves.  For many there is a huge gap between the muesli we admit to and the chicken tikka we eat when the lights are down.

Secret Eaters is back for a second series.  Presented by Anna Richardson, the show goes undercover across the UK to find out the truth about how much families really eat. Each week one household – couples, friends or siblings – are put under 24-hour surveillance to discover if they are Secret Eaters.

Using fixed cameras installed inside their home and Private Investigators to track them outside of it; at work, rest or play our cameras will be watching.

All the evidence will be revealed in the Secret Eaters’ Incident Room. Here, each couple will be confronted with the shocking reality of their diet because if you want to lose weight, you really need to know the truth about how you’re putting it on.

Could you too be a Secret Eater?
