Last month Lorraine Kelly celebrated reaching her weight loss goal on Instagram, which saw the ITV personality dropping 21lbs and two dress sizes through popular weightloss programme, WeightWatchers UK.
Now, in an exclusive interview with The Express, the 62-year-old presenter, has revealed the "dead easy" tips which helped her go from a size 14 to a size ten, acheiving the WW 'Gold Status'.
Her weight loss journey began after the Gogglebox star gained a few pounds during the Covid-19 pandemic, where she "comfort ate".

Speaking to publication, she said: “I comfort ate and would just find myself hovering around the biscuit tin and the fridge for all sorts of goodies.
“Me and Steve [her husband] would have a massive, big chocolate plate every night. It started off quite small but ended up being huge! I was going through packets of biscuits and unhealthy grub.
“I wasn't doing as much exercise and mindlessly eating, just eating for the sake of eating. Now I’ve got much more of a balance.”
But that balance doesn't necessarily mean denying herself of treats and enjoys her food and drink - especially at weekends.
By using the WW app alongside doing 10,000 steps a day, Lorraine's weight loss has been “dead easy”.
“It isn’t a stupid, silly diet because diets don’t work, as we know," she tells The Express. "It’s just about making little changes.
“We all know what is good for us, we all know what we are supposed to eat, so it is about getting that balance right. I'm not bored or miserable and thinking about food all the time, just eating well.”
Speaking of the meals she tends to eat, she explains her husband Steve is the king of the kitchen and says: "The thing I do actually, well Steve does because he is a much better cook, he makes a massive bowl of really spicy vegetable soup on a Sunday and I have that for my lunch Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and then he makes another one.
“I don’t have it every day for lunch but I find that it really fills you up if you are hungry and a banana isn’t going to do it for you.
“That’s my tip, that and not to beat yourself up if you do have a chocolate biscuit, for goodness sake it’s not the end of the world!
“But it doesn’t mean that you have to have 20 bags. Just say, right, I had that, big deal, move on. There is nothing wrong with having a biscuit with a cup of tea, it’s fine, it’s just about getting the balance.”
