Josie Gibson Launches Channel 5 ‘1970s Diet’ Series After Five-Stone Weight Loss

The presenter credits portion control, increased activity, a 12-week MuscleFood plan—not weight-loss injections.

Overview

  • Channel 5’s two-part The 1970s Diet: Could It Work for You? airs Wednesday and Thursday, with Gibson adopting 1970s-era food, exercise and lifestyle.
  • Gibson says she lost five stone through healthier eating, moving more and completing MuscleFood’s 12-week Do The Unthinkable plan, allowing one weekly cheat meal.
  • A nutritionist on the show provides an authentic 1970s meal plan built around smaller portions and staples such as boiled potatoes, liver and spam.
  • She dismisses fat jabs and reports no new surgical procedures, while acknowledging a 2016 tummy tuck to remove loose skin.
  • Now around a size 14, the This Morning host says fitness testing placed her in a superior range despite previous weight concerns.
