Judy Finnigan Loses Two Stone After Near-Fatal Stomach Ulcer

Judy Finnigan, the former TV presenter, revealed that she lost two stone after a life-threatening ruptured stomach ulcer in 2018 left her needing two life-saving blood transfusions. The ulcer was caused by taking ibuprofen, which resulted in a critical health scare that could have led to her bleeding out within half an hour without immediate medical intervention. After the incident, Judy worked closely with her daughter Chloe Madeley, a personal trainer, who designed a revised program focusing on a reduced-calorie diet with smaller, more frequent meals and regular exercise. Chloe praised her mother's dedication to healthier eating habits, noting a shift towards superfood salads, raw fish, and whole grains. The weight loss has significantly improved Judy's overall health, especially considering her underlying medical conditions. Recently, Judy celebrated her 77th birthday looking vibrant and healthy, with her family marking the occasion.
