Big Brother's Josie Gibson shows off her weight loss in body confidence post

Big Brother winner Josie Gibson has shown fans her impressive two stone weight loss alongside an inspirational message about body confidence.

Josie, who won Big Brother's eleventh series in 2010, oozed confidence in a candid bikini snap and shared a message about her past struggles with body images.

The 34 year-old penned: "I've spent years hating my body, it's been the laughing stock of magazines and social media posts.

"I've got to a point in my life where I absolutely love my body and everything it does for me. Yes I want to make some home improvements but it's like decorating the house you love."
