Speaking in tonight’s episode, Tom explained a drawback he has found when trying to lose weight.
The chef said: “The thing about diet food that I’ve found slightly depressing is that so much of it is uninspiring and not very interesting.
“There’s no way you’re going to stay on a diet if you find the food that you’re eating a little bit beige and dull.”
However, he shared a top tip on how to cook more interesting healthy foods.
“Heat and spice make dishes exciting, especially when you’re on a diet,” Tom explained.
He also revealed he is hoping to keep up his diet and fitness routine going forward.
“I have a sort of issue with saying I’m on a diet,” Tom explained.
“If you’re on a diet, it comes to an end and it shouldn’t be like that. It should be a way of life.
“I’m going to do everything I can to avoid being on a diet and instead be on a new way of life.”
In the past, Tom has credited the dopamine diet for helping him get into shape.
The diet plan is believed to help boost the levels of dopamine, the happy hormone.
Those following the plan can tuck into foods including dairy, unprocessed meat, fish, eggs and nuts.
Sweet treats including dark chocolate and bananas are also on the diet plan.
Tom also explained he cut back on carby foods and instead filled up on vegetables and meats.
