BBC EastEnders legend Letitia Dean, who plays Sharon Watts, has wowed fans with her amazing weight loss journey.
The actress managed to drop four dress sizes in just four months, going from 10st 4lbs to 8st 3lbs. Letitia achieved this incredible transformation by making changes to her diet and cutting out junk food. She now enjoys a healthy diet filled with "grilled skinless chicken" and "lots of greens".
She said: "It was incredible. I found I had so much more energy than when I used to eat junk food." The star admitted that she tried various "faddy diets" in the past but they didn't work for her. However, after appearing on Strictly Come Dancing in 2017, Letitia felt inspired to make a long-term positive change to her lifestyle.
Letitia shared with Closer: "The main reason I wanted to do something about my figure was that I was so sick of extreme dieting and my weight yo-yoing. I just woke up one morning, and I'd had enough. For years and years - as long as I can remember - my weight had yo-yoed up and down.
I'd go on fad diets like Atkins or I'd only eat eggs." Despite managing to "lose a stone in a couple of weeks" through these tough diets, Letitia found it wasn't sustainable and she would inevitably return to her old habits and regain the weight "on again". Now, Letitia follows a balanced diet, sticking to 1,300 calories a day, and pairs her healthy eating with exercises such as running and boxercise. According to the NHS website, the general recommended calorie intake is around 2,000 calories per day for women and 2,500 calories per day for men.
