Gail Porter praises DECarb™
Your hair’s coming back. You must be happy?
Yes, it’s bizarre. I’ve had alopecia for five-and-a-half years and no one knows what’s caused it or why it’s come back – something good is happening so I’m not questioning it. It might fall out again next week. If so, that’s fine too.
Has the hair loss overshadowed your career?
A lot of people are very superficial and alopecia is something everyone can see and there’s no getting away from it. I wasn’t blonde any more so apparently couldn’t do things such as Top Of The Pops.
What do you do on TV with a bald woman with no eyebrows? Every bad thing that happens, something good comes out of it and I met lots of amazing people – other women with alopecia or women who have lost their hair through chemotherapy. It helps you look at the world in a different way.
What’s the worst job you’ve had?
Working in B&Q. I had to wear a badge saying ‘Gail – happy to help’ but I so wasn’t and I had to wear tan tights. I had to advise people about fixtures and fittings. I wanted to be at home reading Dostoevsky.
You’re promoting a weight loss product, DECarb. Has it given you any digestion issues?
I’ve been using it for three months and I’m happy to report I’ve had no poop problems, I’m just getting thinner.
How did you make positive changes to your diet?
When I realised I was an ‘Energy Eater’ I was keen to change my relationship with food. I realised I had to cut back on eating so many starchy carbohydrates such as white bread and potatoes and had to stop the yo-yo dieting once and for all.
Why does DEcarb™ work for you?
With my busy lifestyle, I often find it hard to cut back on carbs such as potatoes, pasta and bread, which I eat to feel full quickly. It’s easy to lose motivation when trying to lose weight, but DEcarb™ helps me stick to my healthy eating plan whilst still being able to enjoy a little of the foods I love.
So how successful has DECarb™ been for you?
With the help of DEcarb™ I have lost over a stone since the beginning of the year. I look and feel the best I have done in years and the weight loss has given me a real confidence boost. I especially love my bottom and legs and I am looking forward to wearing lots of cute shorts this summer!
