Jennifer hopes chef Paula McIntyre can help her turn her back on binge snacking and reduce her weight, which she believes is holding her back from being a better nurse.

Stephen visits student nurse Jennifer in her digs in east Belfast. Studying hard for her finals while working long hours in Craigavon intensive care unit, she has little time to look after herself. Mindlessly eating junk to keep her energy levels up, Jennifer is feeling guilty and hypocritical that as a nurse she is giving out advice to patients about their health and diet that she obviously does not follow herself. Her dad鈥檚 dying wish was for his daughter to be the best nurse she could be and Jennifer feels she is tarnishing his memory with her eating struggles. Jennifer鈥檚 mum back home in Enniskillen is also worried about her daughter and desperately wants her to stop the bingeing.

Chef Paula McIntyre is famous for her traditional home cooking using local produce. She has worked hard to make a meal that is really tasty, substantial in taste but as low in calories as she can make it. In the kitchen, Paula tells Stephen that this programme has now inspired her too to try and eat more healthily. Fingers crossed it can do the same for student nurse Jennifer and Stephen Nolan as well!
