The 44-year-old 'This Morning' presenter - who has been an ambassador for the weight loss program since April - video called the members to congratulate them on their efforts and she had a "blast" speaking to all "these incredible people".

In a statement, she said: "I had a blast calling these incredible people, to listen to their stories and celebrate their success.

"I am on my own journey with WW and I know how much commitment it takes to live a healthy lifestyle, but when you start seeing those results it makes it all worthwhile.

"Reaching out to other members who are doing the same as I has given me such a buzz. This programme works really well for me and easily fits in with my on-the-go lifestyle, and I am feeling fantastic. Do you know what, these guys inspire me!"

Alison herself has dropped an impressive 25lbs since becoming a WW member and believes "little moments" deserve recognition and help to keep people motivated while on the programme.

She said: "These little life moments are the things that need recognition. They are worth celebrating and keep people motivated. Whether that means reaching a significant weight loss goal, completing an activity they never thought they could, or dramatically improving their own health and fitness".

The television personality went on to explain that she's gained a "new lease of life" since her weight loss and feels "inspired" by other members of the Weight Watchers community.

She said: "Thanks to WW I've got a new lease of life. I'm eating healthier, have more energy, and I'm even taking part in some form of exercise every day. I've also been inspired by the thousands of members on the WW online community, Connect, who regularly share updates on their journeys and I really believe that we need to spread this positive feeling beyond members and into the wider community."
