Kerry Katona sends 'warning' as she strips off to her underwear for workout after health news

Kerry Katona jokingly issued a 'warning' to her fans as she found herself stripping off during her latest workout. The former Atomic Kitten star revealed earlier this week that she has embarked on a diet and fitness regime after being diagnosed with a health condition.

Mother-of-five Kerry is having an overhaul after being diagnosed with Lipoedema, an abnormal build-up of fat in the legs and sometimes arms. The condition, which is more common in women, can be painful and affect daily life according to the NHS.

When sharing the diagnosis with her loyal fans, Kerry was feeling positive as she shared a video on Instagram of herself working out at home and declared: "Today is the first day of the rest of your life people!! I absolutely love Monday mornings! New day, new week, clean slate, fresh beginning!"

She explained: "I was diagnosed lipidaemia last week which means swelling of the body and random fatty lumps. But f*** that s***!!!" and she added in her upbeat and inspiring message: "Gonna train the s*** out of my body!" And Kerry has remained true to her word, taking to Instagram every day to share a look at her latest workout.

On Friday (March 24), the 42-year-old filmed herself working up a sweat in just a black bra and matching knickers. She captioned the post: "WARNING Avert your eyes in now Yes that’s right no f@@king filters!! I know it’s not a pretty sight but it’s real!!! As you all know I’m doing @francisdiet with @carlafishwick.

Kerry, who also has also been walking around unknowingly with a broken foot for months following fall while filming last year, went on to say: "Stayed at my mum's last night and forgot to pack my gym wear!! NO EXCUSES Get your s**t done! Even if it does mean scaring the postman in morning when he peeps in through the window!!!! Even without my gym gear I did @mfitofficial workout!

"I have complete faith in the process!! Dear god!!!! not gonna lie. I feel extremely vulnerable by posting that video, but I’m also sick of all these bloody filters."

And Kerry's fans were quick to comment on the post, sharing their encouraging messages, while many also complimented her looks, including Ulrika Jonsson who wrote: "You have a beautiful body, my friend."

@rimskihair said: "Kerry fair play to you it’s a real body how a lot of us look like … lots of love..x." @smedders75 wrote: "All i see is a woman doing what she can to make herself feel better. And sticking at it. Should ban filters anyhoo. Keep it real." @gayleclubbercise posted: "You look bloody great hun ! Good on you for being genuine with no filters, much more realistic than all the filtered insta-posers! Good on ya."

@donnagrace87 replied: "You're an inspiration @kerrykatona7 is so refreshing to see the reality. Thanks you." @mcladytame shared: "The fact you are so transparent, so real, so exposed and so genuine, is why we love you Northern Queen." @hillrhiannon added: "You look ace and frankly thank you for being so bloody real and honest!!!"
