Gemma Collins has revealed she has dropped another 18 pounds amid her incredible three stone weight loss.
The former TOWIE star, 44, revealed earlier this year she had gone from a size 26 to a size 20 in just three months after she started using Mounjaro injections.
Now, Gemma has said she has lost another stone and four pounds while on her weight loss journey and is feeling ‘really good’.
Gemma admitted she has been exercising more but is trying not to put too much pressure on herself.
Speaking to OK!, Gemma said: ‘I’ve actually just lost another stone and four pounds, I feel really good.’
‘I love myself as I am – you’ve got to be kind to yourself, it’s just about constantly remembering to make those right choices and be mindful,’ she added.

‘I don’t put pressure on myself. It didn’t take you five minutes to gain it and it’s not going to take you five minutes to lose it.’
Gemma revealed on Friday that skinny jabs left her with ‘agonising’ health woes following her three stone weight loss transformation.
The TV personality, 44, who stars in Paddy Power’s latest gaming ad with Coleen Rooney and Danny Dyer, told Daily Mail that she had a ‘gallbladder attack’ in August and is still on medication months on.
A day before flying to Cyprus for her partner Rami Hawash’s birthday, she dropped to the floor in pain.
Worried she would need to go to A&E, her doctor paid her a home visit and diagnosed her with gallstones.
Gallstones are small stones that form in the gallbladder and if they cause pain, some people may need surgery to remove the organ, according to the NHS.
When asked if she ever experienced any bad side effects, Gemma told Daily Mail: ‘I had a little gallbladder attack. I’m not sure if it’s linked, they say it can be linked, it’s not always the case, so I’ve had to slow down on it all for a bit.
‘We were going away for Rami’s 50th and I was in excruciating pain. I’d taken him to a Ferrari day because it was his 50th birthday and we were flying the next day.

‘I fell to the floor, whilst he was going round the track. And I was like, whoa, I’m in pain. And then I was thinking I’m gonna have to go and sit in A&E.
‘I called my doctor and he said, “let me come to your house scan you”. When he scanned me, it was gallstones.
‘But gallstones, this is where I’m not 100 per cent convinced at the minute, gallstones, everyone can have gallstones and they can flare up at any time.
‘You know, I was in such pain, but I’ve got the medication at the minute that’s helping me.
‘At the time, it was agonising and I thought I’m, I’m not gonna make it to Cyprus.
‘But, you know, the doctors were great and I’ve got pain relief for it now so we’re just gonna really have to see how it goes, you know.’
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.’
While Gemma at the time was proudly displaying the results of her weight loss, she also suffered from a more immediate side effect from the jabs.
Gemma was left concerned that her weight loss made her ‘look older’ as she shared a candid Instagram post, pointing out her ‘next level’ crow’s feet.
