Davina McCall says people "shouldn't be ashamed of wanting to lose weight" in the new year as she shares some of her top tips to body confidence.
The Masked Singer presenter, 55, may be rocking washboard abs and sculpted arms - but she insists that she has to work very hard to stay in shape.
Speaking about how she noticed her clothes had got a little tighter during the Covid-19 pandemic, she claims that the UK is having a "snack amnesia pandemic."
Davina has been helping the nation to get fit for almost two decades after selling more than 2 million weight loss DVDs and she now runs her own online platform Own Your Goals Davina.
With more focus on body positivity in recent years and many highlighting the dangers of diet culture, Davina took a moment to defend her project.
She told HELLO! magazine : "I’m not trying to get you to give stuff up, I’m just trying to get you to make sensible choices. I just want you to eat in a way where your body’s going to be screaming, ‘Thank you!'"
She insists that she doesn't want people to give anything up, just "make sensible choices".
Davina admitted to "indulging" over Christmas, but said that people shouldn't be afraid of admitting if they want to slim down to "feel better in clothes".
“We’ve often been a bit nervous about talking about weight loss, but we shouldn’t be ashamed of it because it’s what people want to know about,” she explained.
She said that her "biggest mission in life" is to make exercise more enjoyable for people.
As many people head back to the gym after the festive period, Davina has explained how she can understand why fitness newbies might find their new lifestyle intimidating.
But she insists that there is "no downside" to exercising and that it's a personal journey.
The mum-of-three explained that there are still things in the gym that she "isn't great at", adding that she does "easier versions".

Davina also spilled a few of her secrets of how she manages to stay so slim with fans.
One being she never eats after having dinner, adding that she realised she was consuming up to 400 calories in the evening from snacking on carrots and hummus.
She also said that exercising in the morning is a great way to start the day and she stays motivated by putting her gym clothes on first thing so she can't talk herself out of it.
The star said that she sticks to the 80/20 rule to weight loss - where exercise counts for '20%' of your journey but what you put into your body is the remaining '80%' of the work.
