Elaine Crowley blew both judges and viewers away last night with an incredible weight loss of 1 stone 2 lbs on the first episode of Operation Transformation.
The show made it’s highly anticipated debut last night and Elaine along with celebrity lawyer Gerald Kean, funnyman Karl Spain, RTÉ Radio 1 reporter Brenda Donohue and comedian Katherine Lynch took to the scales to see if their intense week of training and healthy eating paid off.
The Midday presenter undoubtedly stole the show with her impressive weight loss however, when the results were announced she kept her composure and didn’t look overtly excited. Elaine went on to explain that her calm reaction is because she doesn’t like to base everything on the scales.
“I’ve said it before it’s not about the scales for me,” she told fitness coach Karl Henry.
“The problem for me is keeping it off and a lifestyle change. It’s about change in the long-term. If I lose three pounds next week – yay! If I lose a stone next week – yay! If I lose nothing next week – yay! as long as I can eat my three meals a day and get my exercise in everyday it’ll come off eventually.”
Despite the brunette beauty’s demure reaction, dietitian Aoife Hearne said she thinks it was the most significant weight loss on last night’s show.
“I would say that is the most significant weight-loss that we’ve had so far on today’s show because you haven’t been able to exercise as much as you would like so it shows you how important food is.” she told Elaine.
Congratulations from all of us at VIP towers, Elaine!
