Chanelle Hayes has shared snaps of herself wearing the tracksuit bottoms she wore the day she got her gastric sleeve surgery to highlight her weight loss.
The former Big Broter star, 33, dropped a massive eight stone following the procedure and kept the same pair of joggers she wore, calling the transformation 'mind-blowing'.
In the snaps, Chanelle donned a pink vest and a pair of black skintight shorts as she put on the tracksuit bottoms to emphasise the change in her body.
Transformation: Chanelle Hayes has shared snaps of herself wearing the tracksuit bottoms she wore the day she got her gastric sleeve surgery to highlight her weight loss
Alongside the post, she wrote: 'These are the joggers I wore the day I went in for my gastric sleeve surgery. I kept them to compare a year on and it is completely mind blowing for me to actually see the difference.
'I wanted to let people know what I eat in a day because I have so many DMs asking me. So here was today: -2 eggs (scrambled) and chorizo, -2 chocolate cookies
'Slice of roast pork, one roast potato, half a Yorkshire pudding, stuffing, gravy, broccoli and peas, -a bit of Wensleydale cheese.
She added: 'Before, I would have eaten all the above and so much more. But I feel satiated and full after such small amounts now I never feel like I'm missing out because that gnawing hunger of being on a diet isn't there.

'I have noticed that a year on I can definitely eat more than a year ago but my level of restriction differs on a day to day basis.
'Anyway, I hope this has helped answer some of your questions. Let me know if there's anything else I should post about that might help any of you guys.'
It comes after Chanelle recently told how she spent years 'hating herself for being too big' but is now 'the most content' she has ever felt.
Chanelle posed underneath a sign that read 'hot stuff' and encouraged fans to embrace their bodies while crediting a change in attitude for helping her to realise she is 'good enough'.

Chanelle said: 'I kept them to compare a year on and it is completely mind blowing for me to actually see the difference'
Explaining how a change in mindset helped her to practice self-love and see herself differently, Chanelle revealed: 'I’ve realised over the past few years that I am what I tell myself I am. When I was bigger, I thought of myself as “ugly”, “the funny, fat friend”, “not worthy”, “disgusting”.
'But even when I was a size 6, weighing under 7 stone I still felt not good enough and was constantly comparing myself to others who were that bit prettier or thinner, smarter or more popular.'
She continued: 'I don’t confess to be magically “fixed” and to hold the secrets to learning to being happy all
