I lost 11 stone in 3 years by eating what makes me happy

Tom Kerridge is chef and co-owner of The Hand and Flowers pub in Buckinghamshire - the first pub in the world to receive two Michelin stars. His latest book Tom Kerridge's Dopamine Diet draws on his own experiences over the last few years. By the time Tom turned 40 he found himself very overweight - a result of the late-night lifestyle of the professional kitchen - and lost more than eleven stones after he devised a diet which remained true to the ideas which underpin his cooking. He describes to Libby Purves how he lost so much weight and what he changed in his diet whilst still eating delicious food.
