Young dad Taitis as heavy in weight as he has years under his belt. At 23 stone, the lockdown wreaked havoc on Tait's diet. Commuting long hours to and from work and eating fast food takeaways en route means he can no longer run after or play with his young son Theo. Girlfriend Abbie is worried that his weight has ballooned so much in the past three years that he will not be around long enough to see his young son grow up. Stephen sees a younger version of himself in Tait and warns him not to waste his youth, and to do something about his weight now while time is on his side.
The challenge for chef Suzie Lee is to make Tait's much-loved but fattening takeaways a thing of the past by showing him how to cook fresh, delicious alternative meals at home. Tait and Stephen are delighted at how simple she makes favourite Chinese dishes look. When it comes to Suzie's tasty treat, Stephen's got a money-making idea up his sleeve.
