5ft 1in). If I’ve put on a few pounds, I go easy on bread, biscuits and cakes. I don’t believe in fad diets – your body needs a bit of everything.”
Debbie is also aware that you need get the right nutrients, so she is partial to slurping smoothies packed with goodness and loading up her plate with greens. She said: “I love smoothies, but only have the occasional one because they are sugary.
