‘I’m wearing it proudly:’ Susanna Reid, 49, reveals she’s gained half a STONE over Christmas but has no plans to try and shift the pounds

She’s spoken openly about her weight loss after quitting alcohol and snacking.

But Susanna Reid has revealed that she gained half a stone over her Christmas break, but defiantly said she’s ‘wearing it proudly.’ 

Speaking on Thursday’s Good Morning Britain, the presenter, 49, said she’s ‘anti-resolution’ for the New Year and she’s in no rush to shift the pounds.  

 

Transformed: Susanna Reid, 49, has revealed that she gained half a stone over her Christmas break, but defiantly said she’s ‘wearing it proudly’

At the start of the show, Susanna told co-host Ben Shephard: ‘I have put on half a stone over Christmas, and I am wearing it proudly.’ 

Highlighting her still-slender waist in a chic printed snakeskin dress, the star said she’s in no rush to lose the weight she gained over the festive period, and has brushed off the idea of a New Year’s Resolution.

She continued: ‘I’m all about anti-resolutions. No goals. I’m not going to do some crazy park run exercise regime, I’m just going to accept it.’ 

Offering her own advice Kate suggested: ‘An elasticated waist really helps with the no goals.’

Susanna then pulled at the middle of her dress before jokingly adding: ‘I’m wearing one of those this morning.’

The star has openly documented her weight loss journey after learning in 2018 that her weight meant she was at the top end of her BMI.

Susanna previously revealed that she’s managed to drop a stone and a half after quitting booze and cutting down on her snacking.

Speaking to Lorraine Kelly in March she said: ‘I went to a doctor because I just wanted to ask him about skin problems and he said I recommend two things…

‘One is you stop drinking or cut down on drinking and one is you lose some weight because you are at the top end of your BMI…

‘It can creep up without noticing, I cut out snacking, I found waking up so early in the morning and you’re in energy deficit and all your body can think it have toast have biscuits and you can pile it one really.’

While she has given up booze, Susanna also said she hasn’t ruled out the odd little drink, and did have a cheeky tipple after hosting the Oscars live from LA.

She said: ‘I haven’t been completely abstemious when it comes to alcohol, but when we were in LA, Piers thinks I’m a dullard not drinking, so after the Oscars I thought we’re in LA, if now isn’t the time of a margarita when is? But it took two days to get over it.’

In January last year Susanna also revealed she’s decided to give up caffeine, despite her early starts on GMB, leaving her co-host Piers Morgan incredulous.
