Gemma Collins displayed her impressive weight loss as she shared an inspiring end-of-year message.
The TOWIE star, 44, has kept her followers updated on her weight-loss journey after dropping from a size 26 to a size 20.
The reality star revealed earlier this year that she achieved the results in just three months after using Mounjaro weight loss jabs.
Taking to her Instagram page on Tuesday, Gemma looked incredible in a black and blue bikini as she posed up a storm on a beach during a recent vacation.
Rounding off the year with a message for her followers, she penned: ‘As we step into 2026, do so with grace, confidence, and unwavering self-belief.
‘Your intuition is sacred guidance—trust it, honour it, and allow it to lead the way. Never dilute the essence of who you are to meet the expectations of others.

‘The foundations of your soul were divinely designed and do not need to be changed.
‘True luxury is authenticity. True power is alignment. When you remain rooted in your truth, abundance flows naturally.
‘Stay real, stay grounded, and stay radiant. Your presence alone is powerful.
‘May 2026 bring elevated success, abundant wealth, deep inner peace, and soul-level happiness to every woman.
‘May your path be blessed, your heart protected, and your dreams manifested with ease.
‘You are becoming. You are rising. You are exactly where you are meant to be. HAPPY NEW YEAR.’
Elsewhere, Gemma revealed she is now microdosing on Mounjaro after fearing the weight loss jab had left her with ‘agonising’ health woes.
The TOWIE star revealed to the Daily Mail last month that she had a ‘gallbladder attack’ in August after dropping to the floor in pain.

The star has gone from a size 26 to a size 20 and lost 3.5st since taking the jab, and now Gemma has revealed she is back on the jab after taking a break.
‘I had to stop the jabs for a bit because I had a gallbladder attack in August, but they’ve assured me that it’s not actually linked to Mounjaro,’ Gemma told The Mirror.
‘I’ve given it a rest and I’ve really been managing what I’ve been eating. But I think I’m going to start microdosing because I feel with the microdosing, you don’t get all the [side] effects.’
Gemma followed the guidance to increase her dosage incrementally, from the starting dose of 2.5mg, to the maximum dose of 15mg a week.
But she now confirmed she will be sticking to the 2.5mg dosage as that was her favourite amount.
Hailing the drug as ‘life changing’ she continued: ‘I’ve lost about 3½st and kept it off. I just feel good. I’m never going to look stick thin. I don’t want to look stick thin. It’s not who I am. But it’s about being healthier. So it’s all going in the right direction.’
Her end goal is to lose 6st in total from her original weight but she isn’t in any rush to drop the weight dramatically (pictured last month)

One of the reported common side effects to taking Mounjaro is gallstones, according to Superdrug doctor Dr Babak Ashrafi.
He wrote on the company website: ‘Gallbladder problems such as gallstones or inflammation of the gallbladder (cholecystitis) are rare but serious side effects of Mounjaro.
‘GLP-1 inhibitors like Mounjaro can cause gallbladder problems because they can reduce the amount of a hormone called cholecystokinin, which is important for healthy gallbladder function.’
The Mounjaro patient leaflet also warns gallstones is a common side effect.
A spokeswoman for Eli Lilly, which makes Mounjaro, told the publication that patient safety is their top priority and they actively monitor, evaluate and report safety information for all their medicines to [regulatory agency] MHRA.
While Gemma has proudly displayed the results of her weight loss, she also suffered from a more immediate side effect from the jabs.
