Peter Andre’s weight loss without dieting

Australian singer Peter Andre wrote in his column for the new magazine about how he lost weight. He wrote:

“I’m 72kgs. I haven’t dieted – you know me, I’m not a big fan of diets – but I’ve been running an hour a day, six days a week. That’s like seven or eight kilometres a day.I used to hate running but now I love it.”

Remarkably, Peter Andre could manage to achieve an incredible weight loss by mere daily running.

Peter Andre also has mentioned in this column the reason behind this weight loss. He said that he would be shooting for his 2018 calendar and hence wanted to be in good shape for it.

He had planned to take the calendar shoot during his holidays, but it has been moved forward instead. Andre wrote:

“I wanted to take the kids on holiday to Dubai before the kids go back to school. I’m shooting my 2018 calendar there and hoped to combine doing that with our holiday, but the shoot has been pushed back.”

He admitted that he has been training very hard for the calendar shoot and now feels good about it.

Peter Andre’s past health scare

Peter Andre had a past tryst with meningitis. He woke up at night with a strange feeling and a severe and stabbing pain at the back of his head. He started vomiting. Andre thought it was either food poisoning or flu. He worried about giving the flu to his children.

He was sweating and high temperature. Andre asked his then-wife Katie to call the ambulance. Andre was rushed to the East Surrey Hospital at Redhill where after a thorough examination, the doctors carried out tests and a spinal tap.

Peter was diagnosed to be suffering from viral meningitis. The doctor offered symptomatic treatment to Peter, and it took him many weeks to completely recover. Rumors were circulating during that time that Peter Andre was dead.

What is viral meningitis?

Meningitis is inflammation of the coverings (meninges) of the brain and/or spinal cord. When a virus causes meningitis, it is called viral meningitis. Enterovirus is the main culprit.

It could lead to fever, cold and clammy hands and feet, sweating, vomiting, headache, stiff neck, photophobia (dislike for bright light), drowsiness, mental confusion, and muscle pain with or without joint involvement.

The treatment is symptomatic. Usually, viral meningitis is self-limiting and runs a natural course. In some cases, antivirals such as acyclovir could be useful. Early medical attention, diagnosis, and treatment improve outcomes of this disease.

For Peter Andre, it was the ‘single most frightening experience of his life’!
