Curtis Pritchards weight loss How Love Island star lost a stone since leaving the villa – The Sun

CURTIS Pritchard has revealed he has lost a stone since leaving the Love Island villa last year.

The professional dancer says he decided to sign up to WW, formerly known as Weight Watchers, after years of crash dieting.

He admitted he would go through phases of rapidly losing weight to bingeing on 10,000 calories a day.

Speaking at a WW Supper Club in London last night, the 23-year-old said:"I've lost a stone to date so it's been going fantastically my WW journey.

"The reason I joined is I always do these crash course diets and I have always been around dancing so I've been under a lot of pressure to look a certain way.

"I need to have a certain amount of energy for the style of sport and career I chose.

"So I've had to do these crash course diets to drop weight dramatically.

"Sometimes I'd lose about two stone in a month then all of a sudden I'd be feeling weak and my mental state wouldn't be correct.

"I wouldn't be able to focus properly and I just wouldn't be able to perform to the ability that I needed to.

"Then all of a sudden I'd crumble and I'd put it all straight back on.

"Literally I'd just binge and eat whatever - chocolate, pizza.

"Some days I'd eat probably about 10,000 calories.

"So the weight would just go on and off, on and off, and I never felt good."

Curtis said that it was after leaving the Love Island villa that he decided it was time to change his relationship with food.

"In the villa, I did get fat shamed coming out," he said.

"I wanted to change my relationship with food - I wanted to eat whatever I wanted, in moderation.

"That's what I've been able to do for the past six months.

"I've been eating more than I've ever eaten in my entire life - just the correct stuff.

"And if I want that pizza, you can still have that pizza, you can do whatever you want."

He added:"When I was dieting, I used to be thinking 'I need to eat, but I can't eat. If I don't eat now for another two hours then I can eat a little bit then.

"It would be a nightmare. It's an ongoing game and I can't focus on what I want to focus on.

"So now I'm eating as much as I want, and I'm not thinking about food, and the weight is just slowly and gradually coming off me.

"I'm playing the long game now, I'm not playing the short game - and it's working.

"A stone's come off me - I wanna lose another seven pounds - but it's happening."

Curtis was joined at the event by his mum Debi, who has been supporting him throughout his weight loss journey.

She said: Just looking at Curtis now actually wells me up a little bit.

"He always put the pressure on himself because hes wanted to achieve to the best of his ability.

"In the field he chose his audience expect him to look a certain way so hed try his hardest to eat a little amount so that everyone was proud of him.

"Jumping to Love Island, he had a great time, but coming out he felt uncomfortable because of the body-shaming he experienced.

"Hes now found a good mental state about food thanks to joining the WW family.

Alongside Curtis was reality star Vicky Pattison, who was revealed as the latest ambassador for the brand, earlier this week.

She said: Through most of my adult life, my weight has fluctuated. Ive been really, really slim and then Ive also been a lot bigger.

"In retrospect I wasnt happy either size.

"When I was bigger I didnt feel comfortable going out and doing what I wanted to do, or wearing what I wanted to wear, and when I was smaller, I even counted how many blueberries I put in my porridge.
