Zara McDermott has taken to social media to defend her one and a half stone weight loss after being ‘attacked’ by trolls who called it ‘harmful and damaging’.
The Love Island star, 23, admitted her post-villa lifestyle was unhealthy and despite feeling happy and eating what she wanted she felt a change was needed.
Sharing a selection of before and after images on her Instagram, the reality star said she followed a restrictive diet and fasted in order to feel healthier in herself.
Zara has been sharing her healthy living journey on a separate Instagram account, where she claimed she was receiving hate whenever she discussed her weight loss.
Hitting out at critics who have slammed her, Zara said: ‘I thought I’d do a post about my weight loss. Every time I post about weight loss I get people attacking me, saying it’s harmful and damaging.’
‘However, the last two images of me were of a girl who ate ANYTHING and EVERYTHING she wanted. Who rarely exercised. That is not healthy or good for anyone!’
‘I never worried about my body, I never thought I was fat, I was content. It was never a mental thing and was never affecting my mental health. I was happy with who I was.’
