Chanelle Hayes showed off the jaw-dropping results of her 8.5 stone weight loss as she soaked up the sun in Spain last week.
The Big Brother star looked phenomenal as she sizzled in the same yellow bikini she wore on holiday three years previously and prior to the gastric sleeve surgery which helped her shed the incredible amount of weight after years of body battles.
Before undergoing her surgery, the star revealed she took laxatives for 10 years and would only eat a tin of tomatoes in a bid to look 'skinny like Victoria Beckham' during her battle with yo-yo dieting.
In subsequent years, she found her weight creep up to 17stone 4lbs at her heaviest, after bingeing on Domino's pizza, doughnuts and Coca Cola.
In an interview with The Sun, the mother-of-two has shared how gastric sleeve surgery helped her curb her compulsive eating habits and develop a healthy relationship with food.
Reflecting on how fame exasperated her desire to be 'skinny', Chanelle recalled: 'My life post Big Brother, my eating habits got worse, everyone I hung out with in London was even smaller than me, so I felt so big...
'They all took drugs, which I guess explains why they were thin, but that was not something I was into. I was living in hotels and would not eat anything all day, if I got absolutely starving I would eat a tin of tomatoes with hot sauce, then take laxatives.
