Television presenter Carol Vorderman has said that the stress of quitting 'Countdown' caused her to put on weight.
The 47-year-old presenter told Reveal: "I have had a re-tox year. When I get stressed, I don’t sleep well and then I get tired."
"And when I get tired I find myself shovelling food in my mouth just to keep myself awake."
"I realised I was putting on weight when I found my dresses were a bit tighter. I was trying to blame the zips when I had difficulty putting them on, but the zips weren’t to blame."
Vorderman is due to leave 'Countdown' at the end of this year.
