Hannah Waterman 'drops five dress sizes'

Hannah Waterman has reportedly dropped from a dress size 16 to size 6 in just five months.

According to Heat, the former EastEnders actress embarked on a strict diet for her new exercise DVD Hannah Waterman's Body Blitz.

Waterman reportedly claimed that the weight loss was achieved through exercise and the help of Loughborough University's expert Martin MacDonald.

"I didn't want to do a crash diet - you have to lose weight steadily," she said.

"I've been interval training, which means getting your heart rate really high and then dropping it down again then getting it high again. It's hard, but it works."

Meanwhile, Waterman's actor husband Ricky Groves has reportedly lost two stone since taking part in Strictly Come Dancing.
