Vicky Pattison makes 'worried' admission as she gives update on 'struggles'
Vicky Pattison has opened up about her "struggles" with food and admitted she has concerns over the use of weight loss jabs. The former Geordie Shore star has previously been open about her battle with "disordered eating" Vicky Pattison has candidly shared her "struggles" with food while voicing her concerns about weight loss jabs. The former queen of the jungle, known for her victory in I'm A Me Out of Here!, has previously discussed her battles with "disordered eating". The reality TV star revealed that she used to count how many blueberries were in her porridge, "restrict calories" and "weaponise exercise" during her lightest periods. Conversely, Vicky confessed to times when she "ate what she wanted" but was then "cruel" to herself. It comes as Vicky, 37, admits she has her reservations about people using weight loss jabs. The Geordie Shore alum says people using the jabs feels like a "step back" for body positivity. She expressed her "worries" about the contents of these jabs in an interview with The Sun, questioning: "I've seen women online losing weight on the skinny jabs and they're feeling great and have new-found confidence, and that sounds amazing for them, but do we really know what we're putting into our bodies? No. "I don't think we've got enough information about them, have we? That's what I'm always worried about. It feels like a bit of a step back." Vicky says it is an "absolute shame" that after years of "embracing the body positivity movement" people have started saying "I never wanted to be curvy actually, I always wanted to be skinny." Although the star has "no judgement" towards anyone deciding to take weight loss jabs. She added: "As someone who's spent her life struggling with noise around food and what people thought about us, being the big girl and all the rest of it, whatever makes people happy is none of my business." Currently in England and Wales, doctors have the option to prescribe weight loss injections on the NHS. Treatments such as Saxenda, Wegovy, and Mounjaro can be prescribed, with the latter requiring a specialist's involvement. Vicky, who tied the knot with Ercan Ramadan last year, shared three pictures of herself at different weights on Instagram in August. She used the post to open up about how she felt about her body. In the post, the celebrity penned: "I used to be cruel to the girl in the first photo... I let her eat what she wanted but I constantly berated her. Called her names and made her feel worthless. Just because of a number on a scale." The conversation continued as she reflected: "I was cruel to the girl in the second photo as well but in an entirely different way. I would count how many blueberries I put on my porridge, restrict my calories and weaponise exercise. That girl was a nervous wreck." Vicky acknowledged that she was "unhappy" when looking at both photos. She confessed that during those times, she combated "anxiety" and "disordered eating." Adding to her confession, she stated: "Both of these extremes didn't bring me happiness- the unhealthy practices I put my body through over the years brought me anxiety, disordered eating and low self worth. "And even though I'd like to think I've changed and I'm in a better place now- these pictures always serve as a stark reminder of what I put myself through. And what I don't want other women to put themselves through."

Vicky Pattison uses this CurrentBody LED hair growth helmet to prevent hair loss
Vicky Pattison just shared with fans she's been loving this LED hair growth helmet from CurrentBody that promises to reduce hair thinning and hair loss, for healthier, longer locks Vicky Pattison recently revealed the beauty gadget she's been using in her self-care routine to reduce and prevent hair loss and thinning—and we know where you can shop for your own. Taking to social media, Vicky enjoyed some RNR while wearing this CurrentBody Skin LED Hair Growth Helmet. This red light therapy device promotes hair regrowth, stimulating new hair's strengthening and faster growth while reducing hair loss and thinning with every use. Clinically proven to give up to 126% more growth than topical, laser and supplement treatments alone, this CurrentBody LED helmet uses natural, cellular LED light therapy treatment to encourage thicker hair and new hair growth. This helmet is equipped with 120 LED bulbs that deliver 18 J/cm² of precise red (640nm) wavelengths. It stimulates the blood flow of oxygen and essential nutrients to hair follicles, increasing hair density and faster growth. Boasting a unique shape that ensures full, optimal scalp coverage without any patches missed. Set to provide results after hands-free 10-minute daily treatment at home, this LED helmet has been proven to enhance hair quality significantly and is even more effective when used with complementary hair regrowth treatments. Plus, CurrentBody promises noticeable results after a matter of weeks. Perfect for men and women alike, the helmet comes in two sizes to offer the best coverage for your unique head shape. Both the small/medium and medium/large size options retail for £649.99 on Amazon and directly from CurrentBody. Though the helmet hasn't received any reviews on Amazon yet, plenty of CurrentBody shoppers have been singing its praises. One 5-star reviewer raves: "I have been using this now for about 6 weeks. Not always consistently but my hairdresser and my husband have said things like "Wow your hair has gotten so long" or "Your hair seems thicker." Not sure if this is all from the Hair Growth Helmet but I must admit it seems to have a lot more little hairs growing and I notice it when I am blowing my hair dry. I love the face, neck and hair growth helmet!" Another buyer beams: "I've been suing this device since Dec 15th, 2024 and have already seen sooo much new hair growth. I had ascari g alopecia (Discoid Lupus on my scalp) and all though I know won't get complete hair regrowth on the scared tissue, I'm still seeing lots of new hairs. If you're on the fence, don't wait! I started seeing results in less than 2 weeks." And further songs of praise come from this shopper who says: " This really has been a complete gamechanger for my hairloss and regrowth. I've used this every single day, without a single day off, for 7 months and have seen significant reduction in hairloss and significant increase in hair growth. Now, what I would say is that hairloss reduction could be down to a number of different factors (I upped my iron and vitamin D, for instance, as I was suffering from extremely bad hairloss following some medication I took), but the regrowth speed is categorically down to this device. So while stopping hairloss is not something I can fully vouch for, I will say that the regrowth using this has been speedy and really impressive." If you're looking for a more versatile and discreet way of encouraging hair regrowth, check out this Red Light Infrared Hat Welzo Hair Wellness Growth Cap that retails for a more affordable £99.99, down from £299.99.
