Jackie 'O' Henderson vows to lose 10 to 15 kilos so she can 'fit into her old clothes again'

Jackie ‘O’ Henderson has been unveiled as the new ambassador for WW, previously known as Weight Watchers. 

The KIIS FM radio host, 46, spoke candidly on Tuesday about how her weight gain had started to take its toll on her life.

‘I stopped wanting to leave the house and was avoiding social outings because I just didn’t feel well, motivated or confident anymore,’ Jackie said.

The Masked Singer judge went on to explain how her busy lifestyle and early-morning starts affected her sleeping pattern and energy levels.

Before she knew it, she’d slipped into unhealthy eating habits.

‘It can be a challenge to set a good standard for the day when you’re up at 4:30am and running out the door – your whole day and eating schedule can be a little bit out of whack from there,’ she said. 

Jackie has joined the science-backed program to lose between 10 and 15 kilos, and hopes it will help her feel better about herself.  

Low point: ‘I stopped wanting to leave the house and was avoiding social outings because I just didn’t feel well, motivated or confident anymore,’ Jackie said

‘I joined WW so that I can feel healthier, be more active, feel good about myself, and fit into my old clothes again,’ the radio personality added. 

‘It’s also important to me that I set a good example for my daughter [Kitty] about a healthy lifestyle and approach to eating.’

Jackie joins Kate Hudson, Oprah Winfrey, James Corden, Robbie Williams and Sam Armytage as WW ambassadors. 

Former Sunrise host Sam is understood to have lost 10kg after she signed up as an ambassador for WW in 2019.

Jackie has been open about her struggle to lose weight after stacking on the the kilos during isolation.

Back in November, Jackie revealed she wanted to get back into shape while interviewing motivational speaker Gary Vee on The Kyle and Jackie O Show.

‘I did what you said during lockdown and [embraced my weight] but now I’m at the other end and you need to help me lose this weight,’ Jackie said. 

On a mission: ‘I joined WW so that I can feel healthier, be more active, feel good about myself, and fit into my old clothes again,’ the radio presenter continued

Gary joked: ‘I only give that part of the advice, you need to talk to someone else for the other part.’

Jackie revealed in March she was ’embarrassed’ about the weight she had gained during the coronavirus pandemic.

The Channel 10 star said she was so self-conscious she wouldn’t let her 10-year-old daughter, Kitty, see her naked.
