James and Ola Jordan share weight loss diet after they were branded ‘obese’ by doctor | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV

James Jordan, 44, and his wife Ola Jordan, 40, have stunned their fans in recent days after they unveiled their incredible weight loss transformation after previously despairing over their “mum and dad bods” following the birth of their daughter, Ella.

In a new post, the professional dancers have revealed that they were even branded “obese” by a doctor when they were living an “unhealthy” lifestyle.

The duo took to Instagram on Monday night and told James’ 248k followers: “So many people have commented and noticed that myself and Ola have lost a considerable amount of weight, which we have, and we are very proud of.

“We are very happy about it and we wanted to come on here because since Ola posted that unflattering picture back in the summer, we have both shifted a lot of timber, haven’t we?”

Ola then jumped in: “Yeah, but I think we both needed that wake-up call… we needed to change our ways and be healthy for Ella. Ella is our priority but also, we need to keep healthy for her.”

James then agreed: “Yeah because we were unhealthy. We went to the doctors one time, actually something for Ella, and we were both told that we were in the obese category.

“For us as professional dancers, to be told that you are obese, it wasn’t very nice.”

“It was a hard pill to swallow,” Ola added.

Hundreds of fans had taken to the couple’s previous post inquiring as to how they managed to shift the pounds just five months after Ola shared the “unflattering” photograph.

“Portion control. For us the big issue was the portion control.  

“But yeah, we still have our treats, we still eat what we want but essentially you just have to look at the whole picture and see what you are having.”

Thousands have since taken to the comments to praise the couple and to thank them for opening up on their weight loss journey.

Nikki echoed: “You both look amazing. I had a baby in June and for a few months felt great but since October I have noticed my weight gain so any tips would be greatly appreciated. I love dancing.”

And Jill penned: “You both look fab and you both look happy.”
