After literally breaking the scales, Alison Hammond has been determined to set the record straight about her dramatic 13st weight loss. Despite widespread rumors, the Great British Bake Off star insists that fat jabs were NOT the secret to her transformation. Instead, Alison attributes her success to a strict fitness regimen, a supportive younger boyfriend, and a surprising £2.85 supermarket snack. 😲
A close friend of the star revealed, “Alison was mortified when she stepped on the scales in 2020 and broke them. The sensor couldn’t handle anything over 29st, so she had no idea how much she actually weighed at that time. It was a real wake-up call.”
Her journey began after a doctor’s warning confirmed she was prediabetic, and her health was in jeopardy. This serious diagnosis pushed her to make major changes, including cutting out sweets and fatty foods, despite the temptation of being surrounded by baked goods on her job.
But Alison didn’t turn to fad diets or quick fixes. Instead, she found her go-to snack – Itsu crispy seaweed thins, with only 24 calories per pack. “She eats about four packs a day,” a friend revealed. And seaweed wasn’t the only change — she also works out three to five times a week with her personal trainers. A mix of strength training, boxing, and Pilates has helped her shed the weight while keeping her body strong and energized.
And the key player in her transformation? Her boyfriend, David Putman, a 29-year-old former Russian model. Alison says the couple’s bond and his encouragement have made all the difference. Despite their 22-year age gap, the couple is madly in love, and David has been by her side, cheering her on every step of the way.
“Love at first sight” — that’s how Alison describes meeting David, and their relationship has sparked her to keep going on her fitness journey. The two are often seen spending time together, including walks and shared workouts.
However, Alison is quick to shoot down any rumors about using fat loss injections to aid her weight loss. She says she’s scared of the potential side effects and doesn’t trust the “scary” stories surrounding the treatments. “For people who need them, they’re a good thing. But for me, as soon as I hear any scare story, I get frightened,” she admitted.
Despite her remarkable transformation, some industry insiders have raised concerns that Alison could lose her signature curves, potentially making her less relatable to fans. But Alison has made it clear — her goal is not to shrink but to lead a healthier life.
“I’m a black, big, bubbly woman, who is slowly deflating a little bit,” she said during an interview on Loose Women last year, showing that her journey is about feeling good in her own skin, no matter the size.
As Alison continues to work on her health, fans are eagerly waiting to see what comes next. Will she step into the ballroom on Strictly Come Dancing? One thing is for sure: it will be seaweed in her handbag, not Ozempic.
