Lucy Spraggan has shared her incredible body transformation while taking aim at "life threatening fad diets".
The 29-year-old former X Factor star has shared before and after pics on Instagram which shows how her fitness journey has taken her to washboard abs and a sensational toned body.
The singer has dropped three dress sizes in the process and showed off the evidence in a mirror selfie on social media, with her posing in a green sports bra and black Nike leggings.
In a second photo, Lucy is seen lifting her white t-shirt to reveal an impressive muscular frame and washboard abs.
In a lengthy caption, Lucy said that in 2018 she had already lost "quite a bit of body fat" but this had been done through 'fad diets' which she said were "experimental, inconsistent" and "actually life threatening".
She has since looked for "slow and tiny" changes and the results have been impressive.
Lucy explained on Instagram: "Found the pic on the left whilst scrolling through some old photos and it gave me some feelings! Good ones!
"I'd already started my journey to a different body composition here but I didn't really know it.
"I'd already lost quite a bit of body fat (left picture is from 2018) through various experimental and inconsistent (one actually life threatening!) FAD diets and I was noticing really small changes that I don't think anyone else would have been able to see."
The singer continued: "And that is one of the hardest parts of working hard = tiny, weeny, subtle changes.
"When I look at the left picture in contrast to the right I can SEE the change, it's a huge reward to know that I did that, it feels great!"
She warned her followers that the way she exercised meant that there were no instant results.
Lucy continued: "But on almost every other part of this slog it's been exhausting at times because results are so SLOW and tiny.
"But that is the truth of it. That's the bare bones of anything worth doing in life.
"We keep plugging at it, we keep pushing, we have to accept that to eventually notice that HUGE change we have to chip away at the rock bit by bit until you seen see the first sparkle of that lil diamond."
She continued to compare her body journey to her singing career: "7 years ago I was playing to crowds of 200 every night. Last year we sold 37,000 tickets just in the UK.
"When the world is back on track, I'll double that. I've done it before!
"I will keep digging, in everything I do. Work, life, love, family... everything.
"So that eventually I can look back and say: I did that.
"Happy Sunday. Keep digging."
Lucy has overhauled her lifestyle since splitting from her ex-wife Georgina Gordon and speaking on FUBAR Radio in October, she said that she had "rediscovered herself" after she "lost a bit of weight and had a divorce".
