Great British Bake Off judge Dame Prue Leith has been candid about her efforts to manage her weight, revealing that she often skips breakfast as part of her strategy to control her weight. Leith admitted to struggling with resisting food and expressed frustration with her husband when he encourages her to eat breakfast. She confessed to having a “problem” with maintaining her weight and shared that she tries to keep it down by avoiding certain meals.
In addition to her avoidance of breakfast, Leith mentioned her love for cake, acknowledging it as an occasional indulgence in her line of work. She humorously described her diet as “the worst in the world” as she humorously pointed out that she only follows it for a limited period each year.
Leith’s eating habits drew attention to broader concerns about obesity, particularly among children, as she emphasized the importance of instilling healthy eating habits from a young age. She advocated for teaching children how to cook as a way to inspire a love for nutritious food and suggested that weight loss interventions could have significant impacts on public health.
