Charlotte Dawson appears unrecognisable as she shows off her incredible 3.5 stone weight loss.
TV star Charlotte, 30, told fans she's "so so proud" that she's changed her life after starting her fitness journey in 2021.
Sharing a picture of herself in an orange bikini before losing the weight, Charlotte told fans: "What the actual chuff?! Can’t believe this was exactly a year ago today!!"
She continued: "As you all know I had to shift some serious timber for health reasons because I was on the verge of Type 2 diabetes like my dad."
