GOGGLEBOX star Amy Tapper has taken to social media to show off her weight loss success.
The 24-year-old, who first appeared on Gogglebox in 2013 with brother Josh and mum and dad, Nikki and Jonathan, has long documented her weight loss journey.
Back in 2022, Amy shared lots of glamorous snaps displaying her weight loss, and over the last two years, she has continued to work out and tone up.
And now Amy has shared one of the biggest milestones in her weight loss journey that she has ever reached – with her overjoyed with her efforts.
“Hit a huge milestone in my weight loss journey today and for the first time in my life I’ve lost four stone,” she excitedly revealed on Instagram on Monday.
“Been keeping quiet on my journey this time but will reveal all very soon,” she added, teasing a big reveal that she hopes to share soon.
She then tagged her personal trainer and said, “You mean more to me than you’ll ever know”.

Back in 2022, the star announced she had shed 33cm from around her waist.
WEIGHT LOSS UPS AND DOWNS
Almost three years ago, Amy shared a shocking before and after snap on Instagram where her weight loss was clearly visible.
“Guys I’ve just finished 5 weeks on the Super Slimmer Plan with @mfgoalgettersuk and I couldn’t feel better if I tried! I couldn’t think of a better way to kick start my year than the help of @musclefooduk,” she penned at the time.
She went on, “Physically I am ready to take on the rest of the year with more ease, and mentally I just want to keep going and going and never felt so motivated!
“As you all know I did @mfgoalgettersuk a while back and getting back on it has been amazing and a great start to 2022!”
Amy then revealed the extent of her weight loss, writing, “I’ve grabbed life by the goals with the MuscleFood Goal Getters plan and I’ve lost 33cm around my waist, gained a huge love for the gym and just feel so good in myself!”
Before Amy decided to embark on her weight loss journey, the blonde beauty opened up to us about her bullying hell.
AMY’S BULLYING HELL
Amy previously told us in a chat, “People genuinely thought I sat there watching TV all day, as if that was my life as if I didn’t ever go to school.
How cutting out sugar can help you lose weight
It might sound obvious, but cutting out sugar can help you lose weight - and this is why
- Reduced alorie intake: Sugar is calorie-dense but not nutrient-dense, meaning it provides a lot of calories without making you feel full. By cutting out sugar, you naturally reduce your overall caloric intake, which can create a calorie deficit and lead to weight loss.
- Lower Insulin Levels: Consuming sugar, especially in large amounts, causes spikes in blood sugar levels, leading to increased insulin production. Insulin is a hormone that promotes fat storage. By reducing sugar intake, you can help stabilize blood sugar and insulin levels, making it easier for your body to burn fat.
- Decreased Cravings: Sugar can be addictive and lead to cravings for more sugary foods. By cutting it out, you may find that your cravings for unhealthy, high-calorie foods decrease, making it easier to stick to a healthier diet.
- Improved Satiety: Foods high in sugar are often low in fiber and protein, which are essential for feeling full and satisfied. By replacing sugary foods with more nutrient-dense options like fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains, you can increase your satiety and reduce overall calorie consumption.
- Better Nutrient Intake: When you cut out sugary foods, you often make room for more nutritious foods. This can improve your overall diet quality, providing your body with the vitamins and minerals it needs to function optimally, which can support weight loss efforts.
- Reduced Fat Storage: High sugar intake, particularly from fructose, can lead to increased fat production in the liver, contributing to weight gain and obesity. Cutting out sugar helps to reduce this effect.
- Enhanced Metabolism: Reducing sugar can improve metabolic health, including better insulin sensitivity and lower risk of metabolic syndrome, which can facilitate weight loss.
By cutting out sugar and replacing it with healthier options, you can create a more balanced and sustainable diet that supports weight loss and overall well-being.
“They thought that all I ever did was sit on the couch eating chocolate and sweets, or that I was just oblivious to the fact I was big and overweight.”
Also in her interview with us back in 2021, Amy, who was told by doctors she suffers from a slow metabolism, revealed she had shrunk by three dress sizes, from a 26 to a 20.
At the time she said, “I have tried and tested every diet under the sun but my weight has been a battle since I was eight years old.
“It’s not because of what I’ve been brought up on, but a lot of people probably look at me and think that.
“I remember watching back videos of me when I was six or seven and asking Mum, ‘What did you feed me?’ She said: ‘You didn’t eat. We don’t know what happened.”
“Since then, every year was a different diet for me. I started with Slimming World then did shakes and bars. I have done no carbs and have just lived off chicken and veg.”
