Former Olympic skier Chemmy Alcott has revealed exclusively to HELLO! that she was inspired to lose weight after failing to recognise herself after having children
January 01, 2020 - 08:11 GMT hellomagazine.com In an exclusive interview and photoshoot with Hello! magazine, former Olympic skier Chemmy Alcott has revealed she was inspired to lose weight after failing to recognise herself after having children."I looked in the mirror and I wasn’t comfortable with who I was," she tells HELLO!."I didn’t know who was looking back at me. I had been a professional athlete for 20 years, then I became a mum and I lost who I was.
In the interview, Chemmy reveals that she turned to personal trainer and friend Sarah Lindsay – who also takes part in the Hello! shoot - for help getting back to her best. She embarked on a 12-week body programme with Sarah’s Roar transformation gym and the results speak for themselves.“I am now the weight I was when I was 17,” Chemmy says. “I started at 83.7kg and now I am about 68kg. Since I have done this, I have found more time for self-care. It’s triggered my respect for my body again.

I wanted to give myself a break from the mummy guilt, too. I felt like people were going to judge me. It takes confidence to say: ‘Now is the time to think of me.’ It makes you a better mother.”Like this story? Sign up to our newsletter to get other stories like this delivered straight to your inbox.
