Alison Hammond has revealed the secret to her 11 stone weight loss and says she cut out one food to help slim down. Alison, who revealed one food in particular that she decided to cut back on.
But over the years she has decided to prioritise her fitness and wellbeing. She started working with a personal trainer five years ago and has taken up reformer Pilates, an exercise enjoyed by everyone from David Beckham to Harry Styles.
Alison has previously explained that this led to her giving up sugary foods. Speaking to the Radio Times , she has now revealed one food in particular that she decided to cut back on.
She said: “I’ve had a personal trainer for five years, even when I was at my biggest. But I had a childish mentality with regards to food, especially toffees – but now I’ll only have a couple a day.
“We’re not getting any younger, are we, babes? You realise at some point you’ve got to look after yourself. I’ve got a speaker under my pillow to play relaxing music, and a sleep tracker.”
Alison has previously explained that her mother had type 2 diabetes. It led to her feeling “terrified” when they told her she was pre-diabetic – the point where your blood sugar is higher than normal but not high enough to be diabetic.
Speaking to Women’s Health, she said: “My mum had Type 2 diabetes and she was worried for me, so when I then found out that I was pre-diabetic, that was frightening. I thought ‘I have to be an adult about this’. The sweets had to stop, and the fatty foods.”
Having spent time with her personal trainer, Alison explained she let herself have “some sugar” in her diet. She continued: “If I miss a session or two with my trainer, I notice it. That kick you get out of the way you feel is so good.
“Because my body’s working properly, I can allow myself a bit of sugar here and there. I love my new shape and although I still have areas I’m conscious of, such as my arms and tummy, it’s great being able to wear things I would never have been able to before. I mean, look at me, I’m a bombshell.”
Alison told Closer magazine that she likes to workout four times a week, mixing up strength training, Pilates and walking. She said: “I’ve just started doing reformer Pilates and, oh my God, it’s so good.
“You feel absolutely incredible after it. I really need a good stretch – I’m stiff as a board – so reformer Pilates has been brilliant for me.”
Alison rose to fame as a contestant on Big Brother before becoming a showbiz reporter on This Morning. Her cheeky interview style with Hollywood stars such as Ryan Gosling and Hugh Jackman won over audiences.
She has since appeared on a string of programmes, including I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!. In 2021 she became one of the main presenters on This Morning and two years later was unveiled as host of The Great British Bake Off alongside Noel Fielding.
