Former Loose Women star Jane McDonald has lost a whopping four stone in recent years and has shared the simple diet trick that helped her achieve her weight loss

Jane McDonald has impressively shed four stone by tweaking her diet with some simple changes.

At 61, the beloved TV personality, famed for her appearances on shows like Cruising with Jane McDonald, Loose Women, Gogglebox, and BBC Radio 2, realised she needed to overhaul her eating habits for better health.

Her transformation began in earnest in 2017 when she participated in ITV’s Sugar Free Farm, a reality show that challenges celebs to ditch sugar and revamp their diets.

During her stint on the farm, Jane connected with Angelique Panagos, the in-house nutritionist, who introduced her to a bread recipe that became her go-to for comfort food cravings. “The only bread I eat is one that I’ve got a recipe for from Angelique,” Jane shared with Express.co.uk.

“It’s got no yeast in it and it’s made with lots of pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, wholemeal flour, oats and yogurt of all things.” She explained how easy it is to prepare: “It’s literally 20 minutes and it’s made ready to put in the oven. I don’t eat a lot of it but when I’m really craving a bit of starch I just get some out of the freezer and stick it in the toaster and it’s done.”

Additionally, Jane revealed that she has eliminated white carbs like flour and pasta from her diet, focusing instead on healthier alternatives. While participating in Sugar Free Farm, McDonald managed to lose 9 lbs in just two weeks, thanks to Angelique and a complete overhaul of her eating habits. “I lost a stone and a half from taking part in the TV show Sugar Free Farm,” McDonald confessed. “I used to eat so much rubbish. I didn’t realise how much rubbish I used to eat.”

Jane, who last year told OK! how people blame age for not taking on challenges, went on to explain: “I’ve always loved a pie and I was very carbohydrate-led as I was always hungry. I ate far too much and all the wrong things. I didn’t realise that if you eat the wrong things, it doesn’t feed your body so you will want more. I like my life, and my schedule takes a lot of energy, but I was beginning to get quite tired and I was blaming it on age.”

Jane thought it was “normal to have a big waist and a spare tyre” until she met Angelique who showed her that a slimmer physique and having more energy was achievable. After leaving the farm, Jane continued to put into practice what she had learned from the show, resulting in an additional weight loss of a stone and a half due to healthier eating habits.
