Bake Off finalist Laura Adlington says she was terrified of being a plus-size woman on TV – but is now 'the heaviest and happiest I've ever been' and is spreading body positivity.
The Great British Bake Off star Laura Adlington has shared how she is "the heaviest and happiest" she's been after embracing body positivity and confidence in herself.
She said: "There were doubts, because I was worried about what the UK population would think of a plus-sized woman around food especially." However, she is now a champion of body positivity and spreads encouragement and confidence to other people through her podcast Go Love Yourself with her friend Lauren Smith, which won the wellness category at The British Podcast Awards on Thursday night.
Laura added: "I thought my life would start when I lost weight. I would long for Laura, version 2.0. I thought when skinny I would do things I never did, like date more, I’d have better sex, I’d wear better clothes, I’d socialise more, go clubbing, go on holidays."
