‘Great British Bake Off’ Host Alison Hammond Shows off 150-Pound Natural Weight Loss on the Red Carpet

Great British Bake Off host Alison Hammond has been putting in the work to get healthy, and she’s looking better than ever after dropping 150 pounds naturally.

Hammond, 51, joined the cast of the beloved baking competition in 2023 and instantly won the hearts of viewers across the globe with her tremendous sense of humor and genuine kindness. But as her time on the series has gone on, it’s become clear that Hammond has slimmed down significantly. That’s why it was shocking to see the beauty hit the red carpet at the UK BFI Screening of Bridgerton Season Four Part Two at BFI Southbank in London, England, looking more svelte than ever. Dressed in a leopard print gown with a scoop neck and princess sleeves, the fan favorite showed off her dramatic weight loss and stunning smile.

Her Incredible Transformation

In 2020, Hammond had a discussion with her mom about her weight shortly before her mother passed away.

“Mum said to me: ‘If you can, sort out your weight, Alison,’ and that really set it in my head. My mum had type 2 diabetes, and she was worried for me, so when I then found out that I was pre-diabetic, that was frightening,” Hammond told Good Housekeeping.

Hammond got to work focusing on her health and decided to be more careful with sweets and fatty foods. She started seeing a personal trainer twice a week and does home workouts, including weights, walking, and stretching. Now, she’s no longer pre-diabetic.

Deciding to Skip Weight Loss Injections

While many celebrities decide to use Ozempic or other popular injectable drugs to achieve the weight loss they desire, Hammond decided that option just wasn’t right for her.

“I think that, for people who need to use them, they’re a good thing – but for me, as soon as I hear any scare story, I get frightened,” Hammond continued. “So I haven’t wanted to use them, but that’s not to say I wouldn’t in the future, and I certainly wouldn’t look down on anyone who did.”
