‘I Can Finally Buy Sexy Underwear'

Vanessa Feltz tells Woman she’s feeling better than ever after losing weight

- 

It’s no secret that radio broadcaster and journalist Vanessa Feltz has struggled with her weight over the years. But the self-confessed yo-yo dieter at last seems happy in her own skin, after taking drastic action and going under the knife to get the body she’s always dreamt of.

Since having a gastric bypass at the beginning of the year, Vanessa, 57, has lost an incredible three-and-a-half stone, as our exclusive picture (right) shows. And she’s not stopping there – she wants to achieve her goal of losing another 7lb.

Now, in an exclusive interview with Woman, the glamorous granny tells us, ‘I’m a size 12 and on holiday I wore a bikini, so I have a brown tummy for the first time in 35 years. I can wear a strapless bra and feel comfortable without bits bulging out, it’s such a nice feeling.

Vanessa also reveals how many of her previous health fears have vanished now that she’s lighter – and how it’s helping her handle the menopause as a result – why people treat her differently since losing weight, and how things have spiced up in the bedroom for her and her lucky toy-boy fiancé, Ben!
