0:00:03 > 0:00:06For a week the peaceful island of Lusty Beg
0:00:06 > 0:00:08in the Lakelands of Fermanagh
0:00:08 > 0:00:11has become home to three families desperate
0:00:11 > 0:00:12to change their lives.
0:00:13 > 0:00:16They're part of Northern Ireland's growing obesity crisis
0:00:16 > 0:00:20and these families have decided to do something about it.
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Isobel, Nick and daughter, Rachael,
0:00:24 > 0:00:28Ryan, Ellie, Mum Cara and stepdad, Johnny
0:00:28 > 0:00:31and mother and daughter, Rosie and Ellen,
0:00:31 > 0:00:34have come to the island to take part in a tough regime
0:00:34 > 0:00:37designed and delivered by a team of experts
0:00:37 > 0:00:42to tackle the families' nutrition, fitness and well-being.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45It's a week of heightened emotions...
0:00:45 > 0:00:46SHE LAUGHS
0:00:46 > 0:00:48SHE CRIES
0:00:48 > 0:00:49..hard work...
0:00:49 > 0:00:51Push! Push! Push!
0:00:51 > 0:00:54..and honesty.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57There's no harm in it, but it'd be nice to have a flirt.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12So far this week the families have been tested to their limits.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17Over five days they've been pushed physically...
0:01:17 > 0:01:20On Friday, I want you to run a mile with me.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24..challenged mentally...
0:01:24 > 0:01:29I feel like saying, you know, I know I'm fat, but I'm not deaf.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32..and old eating habits have been forgotten
0:01:32 > 0:01:35as they've taken up a new regime of healthy eating and cooking
0:01:35 > 0:01:38as part of this potentially life changing experience.
0:01:40 > 0:01:41It's really nice, actually.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46It's the family's last full day on the island
0:01:46 > 0:01:49and what better way to start it than to take advantage
0:01:49 > 0:01:52of the beautiful natural surroundings?
0:01:52 > 0:01:56These two giant canoes lashed together are called Dragon Boats.
0:01:56 > 0:01:57And there's room for everyone.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00- There's water getting in! - Bah!
0:02:00 > 0:02:02LAUGHS
0:02:02 > 0:02:04I think we might get slightly wet.
0:02:04 > 0:02:08We introduced the Dragon Boats this week, purely because it was fun.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10Let's take longer strokes.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13It's a great way of exercising without realising you're doing it.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16You use a lot of your core muscles - abs,
0:02:16 > 0:02:18upper body and they're working out,
0:02:18 > 0:02:21but you don't get that perception out on the water.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23You're enjoying being out on the water.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26# Lusty Beg is so good... #
0:02:26 > 0:02:27ALL LAUGH
0:02:29 > 0:02:31# Even though you get no food
0:02:31 > 0:02:34# Even though you get no food
0:02:34 > 0:02:37# But we're going to lose a few stone
0:02:37 > 0:02:40# But we're going to lose a few stone
0:02:40 > 0:02:43# Then you'll be able to see our bones! #
0:02:43 > 0:02:44ALL LAUGH
0:02:47 > 0:02:48Very good.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52Looking ahead to tomorrow's return home,
0:02:52 > 0:02:55clinical psychologist Dr Rachel Andrew
0:02:55 > 0:02:58wants the children to think about coping strategies.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01For this session we've got the idea of a suitcase
0:03:01 > 0:03:04and this would be like a mind suitcase.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06Does anyone have any ideas immediately
0:03:06 > 0:03:09about what they want to put in their suitcase?
0:03:09 > 0:03:10Could you draw items like
0:03:10 > 0:03:13how you're eating, like, a strawberry or something?
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Yeah, definitely, or even the feelings -
0:03:15 > 0:03:20you might draw little faces with different feelings on.
0:03:20 > 0:03:21Erm, absolutely, yes.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24Well, shall we get started? Shall we draw some things,
0:03:24 > 0:03:27or do some writing on the suitcases that you've got?
0:03:29 > 0:03:33I know Ellie we were talking about caring for people and,
0:03:33 > 0:03:38Ryan, I guess you see Ellie much more than anyone else.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Are there things that she does that you like?
0:03:40 > 0:03:42- No!- Well I know, because the two of you
0:03:42 > 0:03:45- don't always get on very well, do you?- No.
0:03:45 > 0:03:49- Are you saying that there's nothing? - No.- Really?- Yes.
0:03:51 > 0:03:52Oh, that's really sad.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56- I know.- Do you think you will look forward to going home?
0:03:56 > 0:03:57Yeah.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02- I'm looking forward to seeing how I get on.- Are you?- Yes.
0:04:02 > 0:04:07How confident are you, Ellie, about how you'll get on?
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Well, I'm pretty confident,
0:04:09 > 0:04:12because I'm quite proud of myself of what we did last night
0:04:12 > 0:04:17- and proud of my brother as well. - Right.- Be quiet!
0:04:17 > 0:04:20- You don't think Ellie's proud of you? - It's not that,
0:04:20 > 0:04:22she's just saying that in front of the cameras.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25When everybody gets off it will be different.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28- You don't think she's very genuine? - No.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Ryan, can you think what Ellie might be upset about?
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Don't know.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Doesn't sound like you're too...
0:04:46 > 0:04:47..too bothered?
0:04:47 > 0:04:48- No.- No.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57Ellie, I've not got a tissue, sweetheart.
0:04:59 > 0:05:00ELLIE CRIES
0:05:02 > 0:05:05You know your....
0:05:05 > 0:05:09you and Ryan, how you don't get on, is that what's upsetting you?
0:05:09 > 0:05:11Yes.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16Because Ryan's not too sure, I guess, he's thinking he doesn't know
0:05:16 > 0:05:20when you're telling the truth and not telling the truth.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22Did you know that?
0:05:22 > 0:05:26- No.- So it was a bit of a shock to hear that?
0:05:26 > 0:05:27Yes.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31Can I have time out?
0:05:31 > 0:05:34- Do you want a little bit of time on your own?- Yeah.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36That would seem OK.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Yeah, I thought
0:05:53 > 0:05:58our relationship was sort of OK. Then just did that on TV.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Oh, I see.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04- Do you worry people will think you're not a very good brother?- Yes.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06- How?- I was sly to her.
0:06:06 > 0:06:07Ah.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12Do you think you are a good brother to Ellie then?
0:06:12 > 0:06:14Well yeah, I thought so, but...
0:06:17 > 0:06:18Apparently not.
0:06:24 > 0:06:28During their week on the island, the families have been encouraged
0:06:28 > 0:06:31to be hands on in the kitchen and learn some new skills.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36You know that lovely bread you've been having for breakfast?
0:06:36 > 0:06:38I want you to make your own loaf.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40When I was thinking about the best way
0:06:40 > 0:06:42to approach food for the families,
0:06:42 > 0:06:46I really thought it was very important to make them hands on.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49You don't need a bread maker. It's basic ingredients.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51It's cheap as. It'll save you money...
0:06:51 > 0:06:53'So we're not just giving them everything.'
0:06:53 > 0:06:57It's not like a holiday - they have to step up and get involved.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00And when it's baked you can take it back to your own lodge.
0:07:00 > 0:07:01How does that sound? Yeah.
0:07:01 > 0:07:05That's really important, I think, because if they sit out,
0:07:05 > 0:07:07when they go back they're not going to be any further on.
0:07:07 > 0:07:11It's stone ground, extra coarse, if possible. A pound of that.
0:07:11 > 0:07:15Half a pound of pinhead - which is porridge oats.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18Two level teaspoonfuls of bicarbonate of soda,
0:07:18 > 0:07:22two level teaspoons of salt and a walnut of butter.
0:07:24 > 0:07:28OK, pick up your salt and pour it on your pinhead.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31Pour in your walnut of butter.
0:07:31 > 0:07:32Stir in all your butter.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35make sure all the butter is evenly broken up.
0:07:35 > 0:07:40If you would now like to add your pint of buttermilk.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Good girl.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44She's an experienced stirrer!
0:07:46 > 0:07:47It's a little bit hard.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51- After your working out... - It's a work out.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Nick if you want to pour that into, this is a pound loaf,
0:07:54 > 0:07:58and these are brilliant liners, so guaranteed to come out.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00If you want to pop that in there.
0:08:00 > 0:08:08And this is cooked at about 180 in the oven for about 40 minutes.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11If the bottom, the base, sounds solid - it's ready.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14And then get a skewer just to test it.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Pop it in there.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23All right. Put it in.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26Right in the centre there. Watch your fingers.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28Good girl. Excellent.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32Good. Excellent.
0:08:32 > 0:08:36The bread recipe is one thing the families can take home with them.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39But for the adults, in their group session with
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Clinical Psychologist, Dr Raman Kapur,
0:08:41 > 0:08:44thoughts of returning to normal life
0:08:44 > 0:08:47are also making them think of what they'll be leaving behind.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50It would take very little to make me cry today.
0:08:50 > 0:08:51I feel very emotional.
0:08:51 > 0:08:57Because I feel very emotional today, I feel very hungry or I feel empty.
0:08:57 > 0:09:02But it may be that on Saturday morning there will be
0:09:02 > 0:09:05an emptiness that you've got to manage.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08It's the loss of this. The loss of the five of us and the kids.
0:09:08 > 0:09:12Yes, that bond seems to be very strong in the group.
0:09:12 > 0:09:17So, Raman, do you do a summing up at the end, or anything?
0:09:17 > 0:09:20No, it will be really as we are.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22So you have this opportunity
0:09:22 > 0:09:25and tomorrow morning to say what you want to me
0:09:25 > 0:09:29and whatever that might be.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32I think, for me, it's been very helpful.
0:09:32 > 0:09:37Because you said at the start, the answers are inside you.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40Although you talk to friends or whatever,
0:09:40 > 0:09:42you don't really let them see the side
0:09:42 > 0:09:45you're less proud of, or the insecurities
0:09:45 > 0:09:47that I would have or whatever.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50But I feel I can sit in this group and say,
0:09:50 > 0:09:54I'm worried about this, or I'm worried about that.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57Sometimes I can't work out how it works.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59You know, or how it has worked, but...
0:09:59 > 0:10:01sometimes when you can't work out a thing
0:10:01 > 0:10:04it's better saying it's working and let it go at that.
0:10:04 > 0:10:09I haven't got to that stage where I feel I've fully opened.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13- If that's the right word. - I feel like I have
0:10:13 > 0:10:16opened up to Raman, I feel to bring it to a close for me,
0:10:16 > 0:10:19I need more of a return from you.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22I think when things do come into your head you don't give yourself
0:10:22 > 0:10:25the permission or the authority to say it.
0:10:25 > 0:10:31What I'm trying to highlight is it's hard to believe in your own self appraisals.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34You're either looking to me or to others to do that.
0:10:34 > 0:10:35Self praise is no praise at all.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42That is inevitably going to mean that confidence is never going to be built.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45Because good things never get digested.
0:10:45 > 0:10:49Confidence is going to have to be built by other people building that confidence.
0:10:49 > 0:10:55Yes, but that's what, you're giving that away then, I think, you're giving that authority away.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00I think the penny has dropped for Johnny and Rosie.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03I think it's halfway there with Cara.
0:11:03 > 0:11:07But I think it's still hovering over Isobel and Nick's mind.
0:11:07 > 0:11:13I hope they do a bit of thinking from today and with the individual sessions
0:11:13 > 0:11:16maybe they can move forward themselves.
0:11:16 > 0:11:20Because if they don't move forward themselves, then in a sense I don't want to collude with them,
0:11:20 > 0:11:22think that someone can always do it for them.
0:11:24 > 0:11:29Giving the children confidence that they can do things themselves is key to success in the future.
0:11:29 > 0:11:34And this can start with something as easy as taking control of todays lunches.
0:11:34 > 0:11:38OK so what we're going to do this lunchtime is a little bit different,
0:11:38 > 0:11:44because we're going to get all of you to do lunchboxes for yourselves and for your parents.
0:11:44 > 0:11:48Do you each want to do your own box?
0:11:48 > 0:11:49You start with your wrap.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54I will tell you though that the adults aren't getting any chicken,
0:11:54 > 0:11:56so you guys can finish the chicken between you.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59Chicken!
0:11:59 > 0:12:04For the adults there's spinach & feta in filo pastry.
0:12:04 > 0:12:09Add a hard-boiled egg and some fruit and you have a nourishing and healthy meal in a box.
0:12:09 > 0:12:14Packed lunches don't have to be a sandwich, packet of crisps and a chocolate bar.
0:12:14 > 0:12:19And with a bit of thought it's not hard to make something very simple feel a bit special.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23So if you grab a seat for a second.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26- Ow mum you poked me in the eye. - Sorry.
0:12:26 > 0:12:27Sorry.
0:12:30 > 0:12:30Come on.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32Are you alright, pet?
0:12:34 > 0:12:36OK, can you get round there?
0:12:36 > 0:12:36Yeah.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Ryan you're going to miss lunch.
0:12:43 > 0:12:44He can cry.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47He won't cry, he won't cry. Promise.
0:12:47 > 0:12:48Good boy.
0:12:48 > 0:12:49Right, excellent.
0:12:49 > 0:12:50OK the team's back together.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52What d'you do that for?
0:12:54 > 0:12:56Kicked me in the foot.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57Are you sure?
0:12:57 > 0:12:59Sure.
0:12:59 > 0:13:00There will be no lunch.
0:13:00 > 0:13:08Straight after lunch, Cara, Johnny and the kids have a much needed family session with Dr Rachel Andrew
0:13:08 > 0:13:12An incident just happened there now which I am really cross with Ryan about.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16I came out, I hadnt seen Ryan all morning and I came in behind him and done this to his hair.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18And you poked me.
0:13:18 > 0:13:19And he said I poked him in the eye.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22Which I didn't, because there were several witnesses.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24Ryan then left and went outside.
0:13:24 > 0:13:30He then came in and took his foot and kicked me of my sore ankle.
0:13:30 > 0:13:31I didn't know it was your sore foot.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34And he denied doing it and again there were several witnesses.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37No, I didn't deny doing it!
0:13:37 > 0:13:38Right.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41I'm really angry that you decided to kick me where it really hurts.
0:13:41 > 0:13:42Mum, I didn't know that was your sore foot.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45It doesn't matter. You shouldn't be kicking me Ryan.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47Why would you kick me?
0:13:47 > 0:13:48Do you not think I'm good to you?
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Cos you poked me.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53- Do you think that I purposely poked you in the eye?- Yes.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56You know Ryan doesn't want to go to his Dad's on a Saturday,
0:13:56 > 0:13:59at times the teacher's looking at him in school.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01What is it all about?
0:14:01 > 0:14:01Right.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03Where does he want to go?
0:14:03 > 0:14:10Yeah, that sounds, I suppose that little summary it sounds like then there's a lot going on for Ryan
0:14:10 > 0:14:13both at school and with Dad and at home.
0:14:13 > 0:14:17Every week it's the same, "Do I not have to go to my Dad's"?
0:14:17 > 0:14:20And for me it's very important that the relationship stays there.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Every Saturday it's 11 to 7.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24What's changed there Ryan for you as you've got older then?
0:14:27 > 0:14:33I wouldn't want his Dad to think that Ryan was against him.
0:14:33 > 0:14:34No.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36It's not that, I'm scared that whenever I go to my Dad's,
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Mum and Johnny are going to go somewhere fun.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40You don't want to miss out?
0:14:43 > 0:14:44Yes.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47Maybe there might be some flexibility about that, Ryan,
0:14:47 > 0:14:52so if there was a week where you wanted to see Dad at a different time...
0:14:52 > 0:14:53I don't know, could that happen?
0:14:56 > 0:14:57Yeah, I suppose.
0:14:57 > 0:14:58Maybe on a Sunday.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Yeah.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02To make sure you didn't miss out?
0:15:02 > 0:15:09Yeah cos Saturday I think is more of a you know where I can do something fun.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11Go to the library, you quite like doing that.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14Maybe we need to change the day then
0:15:14 > 0:15:15His Dad has always said if he doesn't want to come,
0:15:15 > 0:15:18he's coming to the age, it's fair enough, it's whatever he wants.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20So his Dad would be open to that.
0:15:20 > 0:15:21I don't see that as a problem.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24Sunday I was a bit selfish, I wanted you at home with me.
0:15:24 > 0:15:25Sundays I kind of I see as a family day.
0:15:25 > 0:15:29Never any much fun Sunday.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32Boring day, so maybe you prefer to go to your Dad's on a Sunday?
0:15:32 > 0:15:33Yeah.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35Would that work?
0:15:35 > 0:15:37Wow have you just come to a solution as a family?
0:15:37 > 0:15:39Pocket money and Saturdays off.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42You're going to have a great time on a Saturday with money in your pocket and going up the town.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44Wow.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47Ryan may have tried to tell me this all along,
0:15:47 > 0:15:50but I've been too busy doing everyda life things to really be listening.
0:15:50 > 0:15:56I know it's always been a problem, but I've never sat and got to the root of it.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59I don't think I have you know, so I can't blame Ryan altogether for it.
0:16:00 > 0:16:07A healthy lifestyle is as much about the family dynamic as it is about food and exercise.
0:16:07 > 0:16:12The experts are working towards all the families finding a new balance in their lives.
0:16:12 > 0:16:18Amanda and her team believe that a more positive outlook will create strong foundation
0:16:18 > 0:16:21for the healthier future the familie are searching for.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24For Cara and the kids it's a real breakthrough.
0:16:24 > 0:16:25Where are you going?
0:16:25 > 0:16:27We're going to deliver bread.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37- That's the bread.- Oh thank you very much.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39And dinner's at six.
0:16:39 > 0:16:40OK bye.
0:16:44 > 0:16:49A final one-on-one session with psychologist Raman is 45-year- old Isobel's last chance
0:16:49 > 0:16:52to take advantage of his expertise.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55I hope you don't mind I've came with some notes.
0:16:55 > 0:16:56Good, good.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59Because half the time I come away and I'm thinking things
0:16:59 > 0:17:02and getting another thought and then I've forgot.
0:17:02 > 0:17:06Part of me feels have a reached a point where I feel done?
0:17:06 > 0:17:11That's it, I should just sit back and enjoy...
0:17:12 > 0:17:15my food without doing any thing else.
0:17:15 > 0:17:20I mean if that's what I do enjoy, why can I not become the...
0:17:22 > 0:17:24what the...
0:17:24 > 0:17:27The homely aunt, for want of a better word.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30Being loving, homely.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32- Kind of a mother thing?- Yes.
0:17:34 > 0:17:40You know I suppose it's easier to to invite friends around, or family around and to put on a nice spread.
0:17:40 > 0:17:41Bring out the good wine.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45And then be praised for that.
0:17:47 > 0:17:53You know, "We went around Isobel's and had a lovely meal, had a lovely bottle of wine."
0:17:53 > 0:17:55That's sort of would be...
0:17:55 > 0:17:57what I would take pride in.
0:18:00 > 0:18:06Maybe one of the few sources of feeling good that you've developed.
0:18:09 > 0:18:14Which to some extent is about pleasing others and keeping other people well fed,
0:18:14 > 0:18:22which is kind of fine, but where do make sure that you're well fed and looked after?
0:18:22 > 0:18:26I think that gets totally forfeited, postponed.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29Maybe it is age-related as well.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31Because...
0:18:31 > 0:18:36You don't go out as much, you don't socialise as much and you socialise in a totally different way.
0:18:38 > 0:18:43So it's alright as you get older to go out and have that nice meal
0:18:43 > 0:18:45and not worry about the inches piling on.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50But then sometimes I would get very sort of shallow and say,
0:18:50 > 0:18:53no I do care, I do want to be the way I used to be.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58It would be nice, I mean there's no harm in it,
0:18:58 > 0:19:00but it would be nice just to have somebody to flirt with you.
0:19:07 > 0:19:14And feeling the safe, ugly fat person in the corner that's just good to talk to.
0:19:14 > 0:19:15A bit of you wants your femininity back?
0:19:15 > 0:19:15Yes.
0:19:15 > 0:19:16Fuller really.
0:19:28 > 0:19:35I think Isobel is thinking about the idea of retrieving her old self as she called it.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38Whether that's her feminine self or her womanly self.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Or her intelligent self.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42Cos actually when she gets a chance to think things through
0:19:42 > 0:19:45and put things together she does actually manage that.
0:19:45 > 0:19:51I mean the fear of failure really has disabled her for such a long period of time.
0:19:51 > 0:19:55Acknowledging these needs in herself is progress for Isobel,
0:19:55 > 0:20:00but will she be able to translate those feelings into action?
0:20:01 > 0:20:04Cara's motivation meanwhile is riding high.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07And John's got some new exercise devotees on his hands.
0:20:13 > 0:20:17How have you got on as a family with the fitness aspects we've done?
0:20:17 > 0:20:20I kind of liked the week, because it wasn't like a boot camp.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23It hasn't scared me, it is something I can see myself doing.
0:20:26 > 0:20:27How have you got on Ellie?
0:20:27 > 0:20:28I enjoyed it.
0:20:28 > 0:20:29You enjoyed it.
0:20:29 > 0:20:29Yeah.
0:20:30 > 0:20:35You know what else I noticed you doing and enjoying and I don't think you knew it was excersise?
0:20:35 > 0:20:36Tennis.
0:20:36 > 0:20:37That's not exercise.
0:20:37 > 0:20:38It is exercise.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40Getting the ball and stuff.
0:20:40 > 0:20:41That's definitely exercise.
0:20:43 > 0:20:48What things do you think are goals that you are going to be able to set to try and get those exercises?
0:20:48 > 0:20:51I think me and Cara's already talked about getting bikes for the two of us,
0:20:51 > 0:20:53because the kids have bikes.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55So we can join in. Go on cycle ride together.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58Half an hour every evening we are going to try and aim for something.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00Good. Without a doubt that's brilliant.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03Hold it for a moment.
0:21:03 > 0:21:04Come on, back to the middle.
0:21:04 > 0:21:07How's the week gone for you so far, fitting the fitness aspect in?
0:21:07 > 0:21:12I've really enjoyed it and I've been able to do thing here that I never thought I would be able to do,
0:21:12 > 0:21:13because of a back injury.
0:21:13 > 0:21:17I've actually loved it, I didn't think I would, but I do.
0:21:17 > 0:21:21You're reaching forward and down to your leg.
0:21:21 > 0:21:26We need to set you some short and long term goals for when you leave.
0:21:26 > 0:21:30We have two of the most beautiful beaches in Northern Ireland,
0:21:30 > 0:21:32so when it comes to walking, we have no excuse.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35We've got tennis courts.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38You have tennis courts as well.
0:21:38 > 0:21:39Yeah, we've got a good yoga school.
0:21:42 > 0:21:49So I see no reason why we can't incorporate those three things as a regular part of our weekly life.
0:21:49 > 0:21:53Definitely.
0:21:55 > 0:21:56Quality.
0:21:56 > 0:21:57You work towards it.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59That's it.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02How did you get on with just the fitness aspect this week?
0:22:02 > 0:22:05I thought it was going to be a lot worse.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07I thought I was going to be a boot camp type of thing.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09And you were going to be really working us.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12Not that you haven't been working us!
0:22:12 > 0:22:19So have you found that most importantly the fitness we have done this week has been achievable?
0:22:19 > 0:22:19Is that right?
0:22:19 > 0:22:20Yes.
0:22:20 > 0:22:21Looking good!
0:22:21 > 0:22:25What can we put in place, what goals are you going to set yourselves?
0:22:25 > 0:22:31I'm going stop paying the gym my monthly money for nothing and start using it.
0:22:31 > 0:22:31Anything you particularly enjoyed Rachael?
0:22:31 > 0:22:32The water aerobics.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35And you know what? I'm never playing tag with you again either!
0:22:35 > 0:22:38I've never run so much.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40Good team work good chase down, perfect.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42People were jogging for 40 minutes - you were sprinting for 40 minutes!
0:22:46 > 0:22:49Nick, you're a member of the gym also aren't you?
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Just trying to get you to...
0:22:54 > 0:22:55It's trying to get the motivation to get my lazy ass out of my bed in the morning.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58Yeah, it's just seting that alarm clock an hour earlier,
0:22:58 > 0:23:02and getting up and getting out and doing it.
0:23:02 > 0:23:03We know what we're doing.
0:23:03 > 0:23:04We just need to do it.
0:23:11 > 0:23:16While the families enjoy an evening BBQ, the therapists meet to discuss progress so far.
0:23:16 > 0:23:22So let's start with Cara and Johnny their kids, just in terms progress that's been made.
0:23:23 > 0:23:28From my point of view, with Cara, I do feel that we have had a significant shift
0:23:28 > 0:23:29from the start of the week.
0:23:29 > 0:23:34It's like the reality has dawned, she's trying to figure it out for the long term.
0:23:34 > 0:23:39I think big message that's got through to her is that change is ordinary hard work.
0:23:41 > 0:23:45Johnny looks very different, he has definitely lost a bit or weight, but more than,
0:23:45 > 0:23:48that there is something else, it is like he's nourishing himself properly for the first time.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51There is a sparkle in his eyes. He had got life in his eyes.
0:23:53 > 0:23:59Now the kids, Ryan and Ellie, individually they have both moved on,
0:23:59 > 0:24:03but I think collectively there is still quite a troubled relationship there.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05How are they going to figure that out?
0:24:05 > 0:24:09Cara said she never really thought about the children as two separate individuals.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13She just saw them as the children and spent time with them as a pair,
0:24:13 > 0:24:17so I think by dividing them up, giving them both some separate time,
0:24:17 > 0:24:22if she can take away that element of competition between the two of them,
0:24:22 > 0:24:26then they can perhaps begin to like each other really.
0:24:28 > 0:24:32Let's chat about Nick and Isobel and little Rachael.
0:24:32 > 0:24:36Nick, I think for me there's something being held back.
0:24:36 > 0:24:40I think he came to the island with mixed feelings.
0:24:40 > 0:24:44And I felt at the start he did give a bit of himself.
0:24:44 > 0:24:48But I kind of feel he's brick-walled at the minute, he's almost closed down.
0:24:48 > 0:24:52My theory at the minute is that he feels he's given away a bit too much.
0:24:53 > 0:25:00With Isobel she is lovely to be around, she has got quite a big aura about her.
0:25:00 > 0:25:05I've not had as much kind of feedback as to where she is.
0:25:05 > 0:25:09I'm actually extremely happy in how she's come on so much.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12I mean we first spoke on the first day when the whole thing came out
0:25:12 > 0:25:14where she tried a bit of training before she came here.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16And she unfortunately left in tears.
0:25:16 > 0:25:21And when we spoke today, seven days on, she said achievable.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24And that's a big thing, that's a word we want to hear.
0:25:24 > 0:25:28When it comes to Rachel, I must admit I find her like a little sunshine.
0:25:31 > 0:25:35I do think at the beginning of the week she was talking about some definite anxieties
0:25:35 > 0:25:40and I think perhaps what we've seen is her now grow a little bit more in confidence
0:25:40 > 0:25:45and she seems to have a clearer idea of what she's learnt here, what she wants to take home,
0:25:45 > 0:25:48what she wants the whole family to put into place.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53So yeah, I feel quite positively about Rachel.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56So last, but definitely not least we have got Rosie and Ellen.
0:25:56 > 0:26:01I've got to say I find being around either of them just really relaxing.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05I think the rose in Rosie is blossoming.
0:26:07 > 0:26:12She has connected her head really to her belly and in an emotional way.
0:26:12 > 0:26:14And I think she'll do well.
0:26:14 > 0:26:15Yeah.
0:26:15 > 0:26:20Of all of them I think Rosie has a clear path of where she is going to go from here.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22And of course Ellen is a product of her mum.
0:26:22 > 0:26:28Clearly, she has had that great backbone of her mum being so kind and loving and caring.
0:26:28 > 0:26:32But that softness I think is turned into strength a bit more with Ellen.
0:26:32 > 0:26:38I've started to see that bit more feisty than I initially had her down as.
0:26:38 > 0:26:46Ellen me, I just think she has got so many different qualities that are going to stand her is good stead.
0:26:46 > 0:26:51And I don't think you can under estimate some of the difficulties she has faced.
0:26:51 > 0:26:56So although I think she has this sort of quiet calm exterior,
0:26:56 > 0:27:01I think underneat that there is a real kind of resilience, real determination about her as well.
0:27:04 > 0:27:09So it's the last night and it's been absolutely brilliant.
0:27:10 > 0:27:11I feel like a new person.
0:27:12 > 0:27:17I feel like I'm cleansed from the inside out.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24The journey so far this week has been interesting.
0:27:25 > 0:27:33The group sessions with Raman I think were no more than a group of people chatting amongst themselves.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35That could have been done over a cup of coffee.
0:27:40 > 0:27:48He has his own style, which I didn't think that I benefitted very much from.
0:27:52 > 0:27:54I don't want to leave.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57It only feels like I've been here two days.
0:27:59 > 0:28:00It's madness.
0:28:01 > 0:28:02Absolute madness.
0:28:06 > 0:28:07Next time.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11Will everybody manage the Golden Mile Challenge?
0:28:13 > 0:28:15Their time on the island is over.
0:28:19 > 0:28:22And how will they cope back in the real world?
0:28:22 > 0:28:26The hardest thing for me has been resisting temptation.
0:28:26 > 0:28:29Even watching people drink a cup of tea and people say,
0:28:29 > 0:28:33"Oh you get used to it and you get to you couldn't drink tea with sugar,"
0:28:33 > 0:28:35I could drink it I am telling you!
