FERNE McCann has shared her experience of feeling “large” on the red carpet as celebrities who “once had curves” seem to have “shrunk down to nothing.”
The 35-year-old reality TV star, mother to daughters Sunday, eight, and Finty, two, recently discussed the secret behind her two-stone weight loss, attributing it to “consistency.”

While she feels more confident in her body than ever, she admitted to experiencing a moment of doubt regarding her shape and size during an event.
“I noticed so many slender women walking beside me and, honestly, I felt ‘big,’” she shared in an interview with OK! magazine .
“I began to question my body in a way I hadn’t in years.
“There’s a noticeable trend of individuals aiming for extreme thinness again. It feels like a regression to that heroin chic look of the 90s.”
While the former TOWIE star acknowledges that weight-loss injections can be beneficial for some individuals in need, she worries they are being misused by others due to a “desire to be skinny again.”
She, who states she would never consider using them, is a strong supporter of the body positivity movement and believes women should be celebrated regardless of their shape or size.
Reflecting on her observations, she continued: “What I noticed were numerous women on that red carpet who used to have curves and healthy, beautiful bodies.
“Now, they’ve slimmed down to almost nothing. Of course, it’s their choice, but I certainly feel there’s been a shift towards valuing thinness again.”

Along with the video, Ferne expressed how she feels more “energized” than ever, stating that she “doesn’t believe in eliminating foods or following a ‘diet.’”
She wrote: “Consistency, establishing daily healthy habits, and my breakfast plan are how I achieved my weight loss… SUSTAINABLY.
How to Lose Weight Safely
Losing weight should be a long-term commitment to healthier living rather than relying on drastic measures.
The NHS suggests several tips that can be gradually incorporated:
- Engage in physical activity for 150 minutes a week – this can be divided into shorter sessions
- Aim for your 5 A Day – 80g of fresh, canned, or frozen fruits or vegetables counts as one portion
- Strive to lose 1 to 2lbs, or 0.5 to 1kg, weekly
- Read food labels – products that have more green color coding than amber or red are typically healthier options
- Replace sugary drinks with water – if you find plain water unappealing, add slices of lemon or lime for flavor
- Reduce consumption of foods high in sugar and fat – start by swapping sugary cereals for wholegrain alternatives
- Share your weight-loss goals with someone you trust – they can help motivate you on challenging days
