Fern Britton loses 4st
Fern Britton is looking slimmer than ever

How Fern Britton lost 5st in 2 years

The Good Morning presenter's sexy new figure is thanks to cycling and porridge

Saturday, 17 May 2008

Fern Britton's amazing transformation - dropping a whopping 5st in 2 years - is hard to miss.

When she stepped on stage to present The British Soap Awards in London on 3 May, she looked slimmer than ever. At the previous year’s event, the star had dropped from a size 22 to an 18, but 12 months on, she’s lost another 2st.

Thrilled with her new look, 50-year-old Fern’s even decided to ditch the body doubles in her new Ryvita campaign, which kicks off this week. Instead of the computerised special effects that saw her head being superimposed on to a model’s body, Fern’s eager to show off her own figure.

‘Fern’s lost a lot of weight by cycling, walking the dog and not eating too much,’ husband, TV chef Phil Vickery, 47, has confirmed,

Looking thinner than ever at 14st and a size 14, the mum-of-four’s secrets include swapping cream for crème fraîche, saving 140 cals per serving.

Firmly committed to her new regime, Fern’s currently training for a 370km charity bike ride in Cuba for charity Women For Women this November.

Fern Britton’s superfoods

Bowl of porrige (110 cals)
Fresh vegetable soup and two crispbreads (137 cals)
Tuna salad with jacket potato and a piece of fruit (360 cals)
Treats: small packet of Cadbury Buttons (170 cals)
Drinks: cups of tea and lots of water

As much as I like Fern and she has done really well in losing so much weight but she definitely does not look a size 14. She is more likely to be a size 16. Vanessa Feltz always said she was a size 12 but she must have a fantastic mirror!!

I know Fern Britten is a celeb but surley she is entitled to a Private life and what she does in that time is her business. So she's had a Gastric belt op if I could afford it I to would have it done. People just stick their jealous noses in where they are not wanted. Good Luck Fern You look fab. Hilda Winnard
