Josie Gibson displays her slimmed-down figure in a yellow lace dress on This Morning after spending £7k on liposuction to have 45 per cent of her arm removed amid lipoedema battle

 stunned as she showed off her slimmed-down figure in a white lace dress during her appearance on This Morning.

The Big Brother star, 41, previously shared she'd spent £7,000 on in a bid to kickstart her transformation after being diagnosed with the medical condition.

Josie has since shared she had 45 per cent of her arm removed in a brachioplasty, which is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the upper arm.

Lipoedema is a chronic disorder involving an abnormal, symmetrical buildup of adipose tissue (fat) primarily in the legs, hips, buttocks, and sometimes arms. 

On Friday, Josie was back to her usual presenting duties on the show, where she displayed the results of her recent .

The star turned heads in a yellow lace summer dress, which she paired with gold jewellery.  

Her appearance comes just weeks after she showed off her surgery scars after undergoing an arm lift amid her lipoedema battle.

Taking to her Instagram Stories, the star shared a clip promoting Wild deodorant’s latest offer while wearing a black sports bra top and leggings.

At one point in the clip, she lifted her arm to use the roll-on and revealed her surgery scars underneath. 

Josie had previously shared that despite working out, she struggled to shift the 'lumps and excess weight' in her body.

The star said she felt 'held back' by her condition, but has since thrown herself into working out, as well as a focus on wellness.

She said: 'I have just bought a treadmill so I try to get my steps in on there, and sometimes I put some circuits together at home.

'I take collagen supplements and electrolytes. I've also been getting lymphatic draining and have been understanding how the lymphatic system works.'

Alongside this, Josie also has NAD+ and glutathione injectables, designed for anti-aging. The wellness side of things helps to promote healing from her operations.

She revealed that this included renting a hyperbaric chamber from a company for three months. This involves breathing in 100 per cent oxygen in a pressurised chamber to increase blood oxygen levels and aid healing.

Josie also explained how she has built her own copper pyramid triangle, which are popular tools for meditation and energy healing.

In March, Josie shared she'd undergone brachioplasty surgery, and despite having 45 per cent of her arm removed, said she was feeling 'really good' just a week later.

According to the Cleveland Clinic, a brachioplasty, also known as an arm lift, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the upper arm. 

The procedure typically lasts one to two hours under general anaesthetic and usually leaves a scar along the inner arm. Recovery takes around one to two weeks, with heavy lifting restricted for four to six weeks. 

In a series of video clips, Josie told her followers: 'I've just had about 20 messages asking how I am, so I'm so sorry I didn't want to alarm anybody. I went in to see Paul Tulley last Friday for brachioplasty. 

Clarifying she is doing well, she added: 'There was nothing wrong with me. I'm really, really good, in fact.

Explaining further, she said: 'So for those of you who don't know what brachioplasty is, obviously I had liposuction on my arms, and then I've had an arm lift, and that's because the lipoedema is obviously on my arms as well.' 

According to the NHS, Lipoedema is a long-term (chronic) condition of fat and connective tissue which builds up in your legs, hips, bottom and sometimes arms. It affects both sides of the body equally.

The condition is more common in women and only very rarely affects men. However, it's not the same as obesity.

For some people, it can have a big impact on daily routine, physical health and emotional wellbeing. 

Josie continued: 'So I just felt gross whenever I was in like a vest top, and I just wanna go out in the summer and feel alright when I put a vest top on. 

'Constantly fighting your genetics. So I went in last Friday, I've had 45% of my arm removed, I've got my bandages on, and that just keeps your arm all intact. 

'But I'm very lucky, I'm quite a fast healer, so the only thing that has been annoying about it, there's been no pain, I've had no pain at all, but it just stopped me in my tracks. 

'And those who know me know I am so busy, I'm always doing something, and this has really stopped me in my tracks. 

'Like even putting the bins out, just you can't do, so, but otherwise I'm so glad I've had it done.'
