Lucy Mecklenburgh drove fans wild as she showed off her incredible four stone weight loss this week, six months after giving birth.
The 29-year-old The Only Way Is Essex babe welcomed her baby boy Roman into the world in March with her Coronation Street star beau Ryan Thomas, 36.
She shared a bikini selfie to her Instagram page on Sunday, with her post-baby body looking sensational in the flesh-toned swimwear.
Many fans were asking the TOWIE babe for the secret to her weight loss, and Lucy revealed she was kind to her body and didn’t feel pressure to “bounce back” straight away.

In her lengthy paragraph telling her fans about her post-baby transformation, she explained: “Sorry to tell u but there’s no magic pill, no fad diet and no quick fix.”
The reality star continued: “Roman’s 6 months old and to be honest I had this image in my head of being back to regular exercise and healthy eating in 6 weeks after my all clear from the doctor.
“Let’s just say it wasn’t quite like that. Biscuits and coffee for breakfast, lunch and dinner some days! If I got 1 hour to myself I would nap not do burpees haha.”

Lucy advised her followers that “every journey is unique like every body & baby is unique”.
She told her 1.7m followers: “Don’t put any pressure on yourself!”

The brunette bombshell revealed she began introducing exercise into her routine three months postpartum, saying: “Doing @resultswithbump stretches and short workouts… and daily walks with the pram which during lockdown kept me sane. Fresh air, light exercise and new scenery.”
She added: “6 months in I’m still not sticking to regular exercise and eating a perfect healthy balanced diet but so what!! I workout when I feel up to it and don’t feel guilty if I don’t!
“My fav workouts to follow on @rwl right now are postnatal Pilates with Amy, stretches with Rachel, fight klub & I love the LIVE Insta classes when little man is napping.
“I have a whole new respect and appreciation for my body.”
The brunette bombshell finished off her post by saying: “Love to all you beautiful mamas! We are all superheroes,” adding two kissing emojis to the end of her informative caption.
