In his autobiography, Gary revealed how he ballooned to 17 stone and suffered boats of depression and bulimia as his solo career flopped.
The former X-Factor judge has worked hard to keep the weight off in a healthy way since then and appeared on ITV’s Loose Women in January to discuss his weight loss journey.
The star admitted he ‘disliked me so much’ after reaching 17 stone in the years that spanned his Take That stardom and the launch of his solo career.
‘At that point, I decided to lose weight, I wanted to see results and feel better. If the scales are that, use them,’ Gary explained. He continued: ‘I don’t believe in weighing yourself every day and beating yourself up. The body doesn’t work like that.’
‘You could do nothing wrong and be heavier, the body is a bit like the seasons. It changes throughout the year. So there’s maybe some danger in that,’ he said.
