Despite finishing Celebrity Operation Transformation last month, Elaine Crowley has revealed that the lessons she learnt on the show have stuck with her and her attitude towards food has completely changed.
The Midday presenter took part in the weight loss show last month along with; comedian Katherine Lynch, solicitor Gerald Kean, funny man Karl Spain and RTÉ Radio 1 reporter Brenda Donohue.
After four weeks of following a healthy eating and exercise plan, Elaine lost and incredible 1st 8lbs and the brunette beauty’s admitted that despite the occasional Weetabix binge, she’s been sticking to the show’s food plan.
“I’m eating the same amount. I have the odd binge but instead of pizza it’s Weetabix – Weetabix is my new pizza,” she told the Herald.
Elaine has revealed that looking back, she’s no idea how she was able to take part in such a challenging weight loss show, but she’s glad she stuck to it.
“I’m delighted I got through it. It was tough, in hindsight I’m like, ‘How the hell did I manage to do it?’It was an endurance test,” she said.
The Cork native said that she’s delighted she’s managed to keep the weight off so far, as usually she’d have put it all back on.
“There was a great sense of achievement as well and I’ve been keeping it up. Normally, at this stage, I would have piled on all the weight again and that hasn’t happened, so touch wood,” she said.
