Adele's 'mind-blowing' reason for 7-stone weight loss leaving her unrecognisable

Adele's seven-stone weight loss has sent shockwaves through the showbiz circuit.

But the motivation spurring the singing super star onto her weight loss journey wasn't about how she looked or getting "super skinny".

Obsessing over her image couldn't be further from the truth.

In fact her UK-based personal trainer Pete Geracimo said her son Angelo was at the heart of the reasons to why she wanted to lose weight.

The personal trainer hailed the spotlight on the singer's weight loss journey as "mind-blowing".

Pete opened up about his working fitness relationship with Adele in recent months on his social media profile.

To achieve her seven-stone weight loss, the songstress stuck to a gruelling workout regime and made cleaner food choices.

He wrote: "When Adele and I started our journey together, it was never about getting super skinny. It was about getting her healthy. Especially post pregnancy and post surgery.

"When 25 dropped and the tour announced, we had to get ready for a 13-month gruelling schedule. In that time, she warmed to training and made better food choices."

Pete lifted the lid on how Adele getting skinny wasn't about album sales, publicity or being a role model.

The PT revealed the motivation in her heart was her son and herself.

"As a result, she lost considerable weight and people took notice. Her body transformation was splashed across every media outlet. The attention it generated was mind-blowing.



"Since she moved to LA, it's been well documented that she underwent some tough personal changes. It's only natural that with change comes a new sense of self and wanting to be your best possible version.

"She embraced better eating habits and committed to her fitness and 'is sweating'! I could not be prouder or happier for her! This metamorphosis is not for album sales, publicity or to be a role model. She is doing it for herself and for Angelo."
