What did Robbie Williams have to say about weight loss?
During the episode the ever-entertaining singer and showman, opens up about how his previous relationship with food had affected his mental health, with Robbie commenting that: “I found that normally my history is being overweight and being dreadfully unhappy and then counteracting that with extreme measures and being depressed because there are no nutrients in my body.”
Talking about why he became a part of the WW family, Robbie said: “There is this relentless weight battle and weight issue that I’ve had forever.
“WW phoned up and said, ‘Hey, we want you to be really healthy and have a clean head, and feel good about yourself!’.
“The universe spoke and I listened to it, and I was like, ‘Yes, please let me get on this’. And I started boxing. That was great for my mind”.
