We all diet for different reasons and more than likely, you have tried to drop some weight in the past year or so at least once. Perhaps that is why many of us were so thrilled with Dawn French started losing weight and shared a picture of her progress a few weeks ago. It certainly is motivating to see the weight disappear and we couldn’t be happier for her success.
It seems as if things have taken a bit of an unexpected turn as of late when the 59 year old comedienne and actress said goodbye to her diet in favor of taking care of another part of her body, her boobs. That’s right; after shedding well over 7 stone, Dawn has decided to drop the diet to save her cleavage.
It was a few years ago that Dawn started to slim down the first time and we were all concerned when we found out that she wasn’t doing it for vanity reasons; she was preparing for a secret hysterectomy. She has since revealed that she was never unhappy with her body or the way that she looked, but perhaps the woman looking back from the mirror may just have been more motivating than she expected.
In her own words, “I’m happy with my boobs. I do not want to lose them.” She went on to say, “I would never surrender them for everyone.”
It was after a cancer scare in 2014 that the 19-stone actress decided to take matters into her own hands. Her doctor was convinced she had uterine cancer. The first test came back negative but the second test is what prompted her to have the surgery.
Her decision to lose the weight was so she could have “keyhole surgery” rather than an invasive operation. Her motives were purely for health purposes and she has always held onto the statement that she was happy with the way she looked.
After slimming down, she showed off her new look to her fans on Instagram; letting them know she was still working on her health.
She certainly did look trimmer, but it wasn’t until recently that she explained how she achieved the weight loss:
‘I just did less eating and more exercising and I’ve kept that up. But I have more treats now.’
‘I’m not a big drinking person and hardly ever have alcohol. Perhaps it’s not sweet enough for my sweet tooth.’
Dawn also surprised viewers on This Morning at the beginning of July with her new look. Most of her fans agreed that she did not look near her age of 59.
