Chantelle Houghton has shown off the results of her incredible weight loss of almost 4st - and she tells us she's feeling better than ever after overhauling her life 16 months ago.
The former Celebrity Big Brother winner, 39, oozed confidence in a white bikini as she hit the beach during a holiday to Tenerife last week.
Speaking exclusively to new, Chantelle says, "I feel amazing. I can't tell you how great I feel. Not just in myself, but even my skin, hair and nails are better. I'm so happy. I have a spring in my step and I'm ready for summer." Chantelle now weighs 9st 6lbs and is celebrating being back in size 8 clothes after she hit just over 13st in 2021. "I'm 3lbs shy of reaching a total weight loss goal of 4st. I'm very happy with where I am, but I want to lose those 3lbs," she explains.
The star adds that she's not on a strict diet, telling us that healthier choices have become part of her lifestyle. "It hasn't been brutally hard - it's just the way I live my life now," she says. "Over the years I've put on weight, lost the weight on a diet, then put the weight back on - it's been like a yo-yo.
"And when I wasn't on a diet, I wasn't eating properly. I'd skip breakfast and lunch, then I'd get to the point where I was so hungry I'd just eat rubbish, like McDonald's. Or I'd have a bag of crisps, a chocolate bar and a can of coke.
"Now, I've completely changed my diet and it's sustainable. I don't eat processed foods and I don't eat sugary stuff. I just eat natural sugars, like fruit. I love food so much. I eat a lot, but now it's healthy."
