This Morning’s Alison Hammond reveals she’s lost 2 stone and wants to run a marathon after quitting sugar

ALISON Hammond has revealed she’s lost two stone after ditching sugar from her diet – and now the This Morning presenter is keen to run a marathon.

The mum-of-one entered ITV’s Sugar Free Farm and her latest weight loss journey is set to be broadcast on the channel in the new year.

Alison, 41, who once admitted she was “embarrassed” by her weight which came to over 20 stone, gushed: “I’ve totally changed shape, and my clothes are fitting alot nicer now.”

Chatting to Best magazine about her time on the show she said: “I’ve lost two stone since I filmed Sugar Free Farm.

“OK, so I might not have shed ten stone, which is the amount I need to lose but, for me, it’s not so much about the weight loss: it’s more about feeling better in myself, and I’m definitely feeling a good deal happier now.”

The former Big Brother contestant took part in the show which sees celebrities give up sugar while working on a farm.

Viewers will see the star feature alongside the likes of comedian Joe Pasquale, Towie’s Gemma Collins and Britain’s Got Talent duo Stavros Flatley.

Outside of the show, Alison is a gym regular and is keen to see what she could achieve in the future.

She added: “I work out with a personal trainer three times a week.

“He tells me I’m really fit for my weight, and says, ‘Imagine what you could do if you were a bit smaller.’

“If I did lose a few pounds, I’d probably be running marathons, which would be amazing – I’ve never done one, but I’d love to.

“Even a half marathon would do.”

ITV’s Sugar Free Farm kicks off January 10 at 9pm.
