Amel Bent has long fought a battle against her weight. The 40-year-old singer was even an ambassador for the Weight Watchers brand, which earned her a lot of mockery at the time…
Although Amel Bent refused many projects during her career, she happily agreed to become a Weight Watchers ambassador in 2012!

Amel Bent expected it: “When I became the face of the Weight Watchers brand, I suspected that I was going to be made fun of“At the time, she was also confronted with the opinions of those around her.”Some people thought that it was not necessarily the best move to try in a career. Yet, to me, it made sense. I had a story to tell and a message to send“, she recently recalled in 7 Days TV.
For years, the interpreter of My philosophy was self-conscious about her weight and had a “extreme eating behavior“, she told us. And to specify: “On tour I was able to eat nothing for days. On the other hand, after the last concert date, I threw myself into food. As if to fill a gap“.

At the time, when the singer tested the Weight Watchers program to relearn how to eat, she finally “won the battle against his complexes“, as she confided in the brand’s magazine. “Weight Watchers works and changes your life! You have to do it without rushing: today I feel great and I take responsibility for my body“, she assured about the program which was not described as a diet but as a new way of eating on a daily basis. At this time, the mother of Sofia, 10 years old, Hana, 8 years old, and Zayn, 3 years old, was able to lose no less than 12 kilos!
Since her recent return to the forefront, after her two-year media break, Amel Bent has displayed an even finer figure than before. But how does she stay in shape? “I am stable, because I eat very healthy (thanks to what I cook for my daughters) and I have stopped soda, fast food, bread and cheese. So, it no longer moves. No sleeve or drastic diet, but almost no excess, and surely a hormonal change with aging and with pregnancies.she explained in a video posted on Instagram.
