As a lifestyle expert with over three decades of personal and professional experience, I can wholeheartedly appreciate Ruth Jones’ journey towards a healthier lifestyle. Her approach to weight loss, focusing on portion control rather than following fad diets, is a testament to her wisdom and discipline. It’s not about quick fixes or shortcuts; it’s about making sustainable, long-lasting changes that improve one’s overall wellbeing.

In 2011, Ruth Jones shed a remarkable 4.5 stones, astonishing fans who wondered at the secret behind her weight loss success.

58-year-old actress from Gavin and Stacey fame has adopted a healthier lifestyle and attributes it to a single, straightforward habit: maintaining proper portion sizes.

While everyone eagerly waits for the highly anticipated Christmas special, details about her dramatic 2011 weight loss journey have surfaced.

In early 2010, finding myself overindulged from my holiday, I drew inspiration and embarked on a journey that led me to shed pounds, eventually reaching a size 12 by the end of it.

Upon my return home following a transformative vacation in January 2010, I couldn’t help but acknowledge openly: “We tend to indulge excessively during holidays, don’t we?

Suddenly, everything fell into place. I sensed the moment was ripe, and it was time to embark on a journey towards personal growth. Since then, I’ve continued moving forward without looking back.

Rather than opting for trendy diets or rigid meal plans, Ruth shared that she kept track of her serving sizes and caloric consumption instead.

In 2019, she shared with The Express that it took her approximately 22 months to shed off around four and a half stone. While she has tried numerous diets throughout her life, this time she opted for the traditional method – consuming fewer calories than she was burning.

Ruth had a daily intake of 1,250 to 1,500 calories when she attempted to lose weight.

According to the NHS guidelines, an average woman should eat approximately 2,000 calories each day to keep her weight at a healthy level.

In a thrilling development, Nessa, portrayed by the star, will be making her return in Gavin And Stacey, once again stepping into her beloved character in the popular BBC comedy series.

In the unveiled sneak peek of the Gavin And Stacey Christmas special, viewers will catch up on a significant change in the life of Nessa Jenkins, portrayed by Ruth.

In her fresh role as a rickshaw driver, she’s resorted to her old tactics of attempting to overcharge her passengers, setting the fare at £75 for a mere two-minute trip.

Wearing her iconic leather vest once more, speculation swirls about her dynamic with Smithy, portrayed by James Corden – and indeed, this is the detail that has piqued everyone’s curiosity.

Well, here I am, utterly thrilled and passionate about this very moment, as I gleefully declare to my fellow enthusiasts in a video clip, “Alrighty then, that’s all for now, you’re on your own for the rest.” Their expressions of astonishment are priceless as they confirm the cost.

The woman exclaims: ‘What? But we’ve only been on for a couple of minutes.’

Nessa responds with a warning about an upsetting tone, stating: “I suggest you ignore further interactions. By the way, do you have Apple Pay? I have Bluetooth technology in my bra.

In the teaser, filming for that particular scene took place all the way back in September; it was among the very first sequences we shot.

In the photographs, it appears that Nessa, close companion to Stacey Shipman, is depicted pedaling passengers around Barry Island in a rickshaw. Notably, she met up once more with Neil ‘Smithy’ Smith, who was sporting a wedding ring.
