‘I had made myself fat by gorging on bread, crisps, crumpets and red wine. Once I accepted responsibility for my health, weight and lifestyle it made it easier to take control. You don’t have to have starter, main and pudding.
Last year, Lisa appeared on Loose Women where she revealed she’s been sober for the past three years. She revealed she was forced to give up alcohol due to ‘changes,’ before admitting she used to binge on a bottle of wine a night.
Lisa admitted that during the days when she used to binge on booze, she was spending 12 hours a day filming the drama Fat Friends, but remained oblivious that the amount she drank was out of the ordinary.

Shocking: Lisa previously revealed the side-effects of her weight loss on Lisa Riley’s Baggy Body Club
Speaking to panellists Nadia Sawalha, Kaye Adams and Linda Nolan, Lisa admitted she was forced to go teetotal for various reasons, and that she was approaching the mark of three years without a drink.
The Age Before Beauty star also said she would order drinks in bars that could pass for alcohol at a glance, to avoid questions from friends on why she wouldn’t drink.
She said: ‘It’s coming up to three years since I had a drink because of the change and stuff. When I go out I’d think right I’ll have a fizzy water with lime because it looks like a gin and tonic to stop people going ”oh why aren’t you drinking?!”
Struggles: Despite still being able to get up and spend 12 hours a day filming, the star added that she was oblivious to anything else going on due to the alcohol sedation (pictured in 1996)
Lisa went onto admit she used to self-medicate with alcohol as she filmed the fourth series of Fat Friends in 2005, especially after the passing of her grandmother.
Despite still being able to get up and spend 12 hours a day filming, the star added that she was oblivious to anything else going on due to the alcohol sedation.
She added: ‘When we were filming Fat Friends, especially series four when my gran died, I was self-medicating fully, I was having a bottle of wine, I was doing 11/12 hour days it never affected my job. Did I have awareness? No!
‘I wouldn’t have had any awareness, I was the one, car back from work, had my supper, right wine, and I had no idea. The following morning, six crumpets no questions, that was me soaking up!’
