Honey G has revealed that she is following a strict training plan after shedding two stone and is preparing to run a marathon.

The X Factor star, real name Anna Georgette Gilford, 41, has completely overhauled her lifestyle and fitness regime.

She lost the weight during lockdown in 2021 and since decided to run four triathlons and do a 20-mile run.

Speaking to the Sun, she said: 'I'm following a strict training plan, and you have to do a long run so I'm running two or three times a week.'

The rapper, who soared to fame in 2016, added: 'I'm training a lot actually. I'm running it with a mental health foundation so doing a lot of training at the moment. I've done four triathlons too.'

She also shared that she is planning to release new music, dividing her time between training and recording. 

It comes after the star shared incredible photos after dropping down three sizes after lockdown in 2021. 

Honey transformed her figure after dropping from a size 18 to a size 12 during the coronavirus pandemic.

She had revealed in an interview at the time that she can now wear clothes she 'wouldn't have dreamt of wearing' previously, and even now enjoys wearing sexy lingerie.

Speaking to Closer magazine, Honey told how ditching her trademark baseball caps and bomber jackets for sleek ensembles following her weight loss has given her a boost in confidence as she's inundated with compliments.

She explained: 'I used to wear loose and baggy clothes that went up to a size 18, but I've thrown most of them away as my taste has matured. Now I wear outfits I wouldn't have dreamt of wearing, and I can fit into nice underwear from Victoria's Secret.

She admitted that she went through times of feeling that she had no 'sex appeal' but delightedly said that things have now changed for her after she had worked 'so hard' to transform her figure, adding it has been several years since she 'felt this good' about herself.

In 2020 Honey showed off her new look after completing a charity triathlon, and admitted she'd done more exercise in lockdown than she had 'in her whole life.'

She shared a glimpse of her new physique in a skintight leotard after completing a triathlon, which consisted of a 750m swim, 20km cycle and a 5km run.

Honey also took part in a triathlon in September 2021, sharing an Instagram photo of her athletic figure at the finish line at Box End Park. 

Amid the pandemic, she told The Daily Star that after struggling to commit to a diet, Honey decided to overhaul her fitness regime during lockdown after failing to maintain her previous weight loss.

She embraced virtual spinning classes, running and open-water swimming sessions to help her shed two stone, along with Hatha Yoga classes.

She explained: 'Lockdown has proved to me that doing lots of exercise can make you lose weight.

'I went to see a top obesity specialist and a dietician in the past and I was trying to lose weight by changing my diet but during lockdown I combined changing my diet and doing a large amount of exercise.

'I've been probably doing more exercise in lockdown than I have in my whole life.'
