I'm a Celebrity star Mel Buttler reveals she's gained back all the weight she lost in the jungle

I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! star Mel Buttle has revealed she has put on the weight she lost in the jungle.

The 39-year-old revealed in a candid Instagram post on Tuesday that she has gained 15 kilograms since filming for the show ended last year.

‘All the weight I lost in the jungle is back. It’s hard to be healthy and busy,’ she wrote.

Mel then asked fans for health tips, adding: ‘I need a kickstart. Drop ya tips below to get motivated again. I’ve been stress eating, back on the reds and too anxious to exercise.’

She also confirmed her involvement in Dry July, whereby she’s vowed to give up alcohol for 31 days to raise funds for cancer research.

Last year, Mel revealed she had switched to a paleo diet and had lost almost 15 kilos as a result.

In a Courier Mail column in March, she also admitted to ditching bad foods.

‘I’ve had to say goodbye to dairy, sugar, carbs and processed food,’ the comic wrote, speaking of the restrictions.

Mel continued: ‘I’ve gone paleo as I will try literally anything to avoid having to work harder at the gym.’

Mel was the first contestant to leave I’m a Celebrity back in January after a close encounter with a snake.

‘All the weight I lost in the jungle is back. It’s hard to be healthy and busy,’ she wrote on Instagram 

‘All my fears have come true, basically,’ Mel said after fellow contestant Pettifleur Berenger saw a snake slithering through camp.

‘My brain is in such a state at the moment and the only thing I can see from here on in is more suffering. This is my limit, I can’t come any further.’ 

Mel then made the difficult decision to call it quits.
