An Eastenders actress has revealed she managed dramatic weight loss after deciding to remove one thing from her diet. Tamzin Outhwaite said that when she hit the menopause she took to drinking wine - and it had a big impact on her.
In an interview with Closer Magazine the 52-year-old said that it was over this period that she reckons she put on more than a stone in weight. However, she revealed it was appearing on BBC endurance show Feel the Fear that sparked a change in her approach.
She is now alcohol free - and it led to her eating much more healthily too. Tamzin said: “Let’s just say I put on a lot of weight when I hit the menopause - over a stone. I’ve never been one to diet but when I quit drinking, I lost the stone I’d put on and craved goodness like fresh salads and juices.”
