TV presenter Alison Hammond recently confessed that her 20st weight made her feel “embarrassed”. Fast forward to the present day, and Alison appears to be feeling better than ever since embarking on a new fitness journey. The 44-year-old recently took to Instagram to upload a picture, and fans couldn’t believe how much weight she’s lost. Sharing a glamorous photo, Alison gave praise to her make up artist for “killing” her look, as she wore her hair in curls and opted for a floral blouse.
Within seconds fans rushed to comment on the photo as they applauded the presenter star for her incredible transformation.
“Wow, beautiful!” one user said.
“Stunner,” another added.
“Wow Alison you look incredible. Keep it up,” a third commented.
Likening Alison’s transformation to US singing sensation Beyonce, one more added: “Thought it was @Beyonce for a minute”
How did she do it?
In April, Alison was unveiled as a Weight Watchers ambassador. At the time she came in at 20st on the scales.
Speaking of her decisions to join the weight loss company, which now goes by the name of WW, she said: “My WW journey is focused on getting healthier for myself. I feel rubbish when I don’t eat properly or exercise and WW helps me with what I eat and do.
“I want my journey to empower others to think about making changes to their lifestyle to become the best version of themselves.”
Throughout her career, Alison has struggled with her weight. She became “embarrassed” in 2016, after discovering she weighed over 20st.
Speaking in an interview at the time, she confessed: “It’s the one thing in my life that I feel like I can’t achieve.”
She added to Bella Magazine: “When you get really big like me, you don’t see any light at the end of the tunnel.
“I need to do it in small stages. If I just try and live healthily and drink lots of water, the weight loss will come. If I lose one or two stone, it’s not going to be obvious to anybody, but I’ll feel better in myself.”
The single mum – who as son Aiden, 13 – recently admitted her busy lifestyle distracted her from making a change to her health in the past.
“It’s been 17 years since I began working in TV, and I’m busier than ever, especially juggling my duties as a mum,” she said.
But thanks to her new fitness plan, she’s managed to finally focus on improving her health.
She added: “WW is the only programme that works for me, with the Online WW Coach there for support whenever you need it, 24 hours a day.”
