Dawn spoke of her dramatic weight loss over the past year, telling how she loved her fuller figure and insisting she didn't choose to lose weight over self esteem issues.She instead implied she lost the pounds for health reasons. "The weight has nothing to do with my self esteem," she told Holly and Phillip. "I refuse to dislike my other body, and you know... I may have it again one day! You never know!"When asked by Holly if she was tired of discussing her weight loss she replied:"Yes! Well I suppose I've always thought that that isn't really what mattered, and yet by losing all this weight I've realised that for a lot of people that is all that matters, and that is really sad. "The actress and comedienne is currently promoting series two of award winning TV show Roger and Val Just Got In, in which she stars alongside Alfred Molina.The show follows the couple in the 30 minute time period in which they come home from work.
