But how did Adele lose weight and did she follow a specific diet? Here's what we know...

How did Adele lose weight?

Adele apparently lost seven stone through changing her diet habits and approach to fitness.

Amid the attention over Adele’s transformed figure, her former personal trainer in London spoke out about her weight loss to hit back at critics, saying her mission was always about “getting healthy” and not “super skinny.”

He said in a lengthy Instagram post Adele “warmed to training and made better food choices.”

Pete Garacimo explained after the singer moved to LA and went through a tough divorce from husband Simon Konecki she embraced a “new sense of self.”

He added: “She embraced better eating habits and committed to her fitness and ‘is sweating’! I could not be prouder or happier… this metamorphosis is not for album sales, publicity or to be a role model. She is doing it for herself and for Angelo.”

What is the SIRT food diet?

Adele reportedly credits the ‘sirtfood diet’ for her weight loss, which is food high in sirtuin activators – a type of protein which regulate a number of bodily functions including metabolism, inflammation and lifespan, according to Healthline.

Some natural plant compounds dubbed ‘sirtfoods’ may increase the level of these proteins.

Sirtfoods include; kale, red wine, strawberries, onions, soy, parsley, extra virgin olive oil, dark chocolate, matcha green tea, buckwheat and turmeric.

The diet’s creators claim it will lead to rapid weight loss as it combines sirtfood and calorie restriction.

However, there’s not yet enough strong evidence the sirtfood diet has more benefits in weight loss than any other calorie-restricted diet.
