Towie's Frankie Essex shows off two stone weight loss in candid before-and-after pics

Frankie Essex has wowed fans by showcasing her impressive weight loss snaps.

The TOWIE star, 33, recently shed a whopping two stone in just under 12 weeks after making the decision to overhaul her lifestyle while in lockdown.

The reality TV beauty, who dropped the weight thanks to a healthy daily food delivery service, took to Instagram on Tuesday to showcase the amazing results of her hard work and dedication.

Frankie posed up a storm in the jaw-dropping before and after snaps which saw her sport a grey Calvin Klein underwear set.

In the first photo, Frankie looks downcast as she documents her curvaceous figure in the mirror selfie.

And in the second image, the reality star beams as she flaunts her toned tummy, bulging muscles, and slimmed-down frame.

Lifting the lid on her weight loss journey, Frankie revealed that she became unhappy and uncomfortable in her skin when she couldn’t control her eating habits.

The Essex native admitted that she would eat "whatever someone would put on the plate in front of me" while in lockdown with her boyfriend Luke.

While Frankie spent weeks eating the same amount as her personal trainer boyfriend, she knew she had to make a change when she started to feel ‘fed up’.

“I was feeling a bit fed up with lockdown and then started to become more conscious about the amount of food I was eating,” she explained.

“Before starting on the MuscleFood plan, I was having the same portion sizes as my boyfriend. He’s much bigger than me, both muscle and height-wise, and we have completely different body shapes.

"As he’s a man, they can get away with eating so much more, so the food plan really worked for me to help with portions. I used to eat whatever someone would put on the plate in front of me, which is why I really needed to control my portion sizes.

“Now have my food on a smaller plate which is a really good idea.”

Proud of her incredible progress, Frankie added: "I didn’t realise how good I really looked until I saw the before and after images. I can be a bit hard on myself sometimes."
