'I'm waking up with a spring in my step!' Josie Gibson loses 10lbs in under a month as she overhauls her lifestyle after reaching 17 stone

Josie Gibson has revealed she has shed 10lbs in just under a month after overhauling her lifestyle.

In a new interview, the Big Brother star, 36, who recently vowed to transform her size 18 body to a 12, enthused about 'feeling great' since she joined a Weight Watchers plan.

The This Morning presenter also shared that she's managed to stay motivated to lose weight in a bid to 'keep up' with her energetic son Reggie, two.

Host Josie told The Sun: 'I'm down ten pounds already. I'm quite big so obviously it comes off quicker. The thing is it's not only about the weight for me – I feel great. I'm making foods from as much zero points (Weight Watchers plan) as I can.

'I was eating a lot a stodge before, but I can't tell you the difference it's made to my energy. I can get up and go. I'm actually waking up in the morning with a spring in my step – it's been great, and I'm faster.' 

'I'm about a size 16 at the moment. I'd like to get down to a size 12... guess how much I weighed when I started? 237 pounds (16st 9), and now I'm down to 227 pounds.' 

Earlier this month, the blonde reflected on falling back into 'unhealthy habits' of overeating bread and chocolate.

The former OK! TV star told MailOnline she no longer feels 'sexy' and only sees herself as a 'working mum' now her body is at an 'uncomfortable size.'

Josie said: 'I can't wait to start feeling sexy again. I can't remember the last time I felt proper sexy. I just feel like a working mum. I don't feel sexy.

'I have obviously been big my whole life – I have always been one of those people that's struggled with my weight. 

'In 2013 I lost weight and then I started putting it on again when I had my son in 2019 and it's getting to a point now where I feel really, really uncomfortable. I feel uncomfortable with the size I am. I am a size 18. 

'I would like to be a comfortable 12 or a 12-14. I would be so happy with that. I have been a size 8. I don't think it suits me and it's a lot of work to get there so I just need to find that happy medium. A size 12 would be ideal.' 

The influencer, who shares her only child with her ex Terry, has spoken openly about her fluctuating weight having started her public journey when she released her hit workout DVD Josie Gibson's 30 Second Slim in 2013.

She famously slimmed from a size 20 to a size 8 after seeing unflattering pictures of herself on the beach - she was so shocked she called herself a 'beast'. 

In 2014, the media personality lost an incredible six stone over a year when a combination of a strict diet and exercise helped her slim down from 16st 7lb and a size 18 to 10st 2lb. 

Since having Reggie however, the TV star has spoken about her changing body and weight gain and has frequently hit back at body-shamers.
