She penned: ‘Over the past few weeks, so many lovely people have messaged to ask how I managed to drop 9st over the past 17 months.
‘Before this change of lifestyle, I was stuck in a cycle, endlessly searching for that elusive magic diet wand, believing it was out there, waiting to instantly turn me into the best version of myself.
‘I’d daydream about finding it, waving my wand, and bingo, becoming the person I always thought I needed to be to find happiness.
‘But here’s the truth, that magic wand doesn’t exist. What I’ve discovered instead is something even more powerful, the right support.
‘I was at a point where I felt completely lost and out of control, unsure of where to turn next.’
Michelle has also been sharing with fans a glimpse of her workout routine as she hits the gym regularly.
In June, Michelle performed on stage with Robbie Williams in front of a huge 70,000 strong crowd at Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium.
The Scottish singer belted out Relight My Fire alongside the Take That star, 44, after receiving a surprise invite from him.

Michelle thanked Robbie for his ‘unconditional kindness’ and gave an insight into her night.
In the clip, she could be seen getting ready backstage before joining Robbie in front of the crowd wearing a bright red lace gown.
Michelle wrote: ‘So about Saturday night…… It’s taken me almost 24hrs to try and comprehend what happened yesterday at Murrayfield Stadium.’
She continued: ‘It was truly a moment I’ll never forget, singing to a home crowd of 70,000 people with one of the world’s biggest superstars performing by my side. To everyone in the crowd cheering me on – thank you. Your support means the world.
‘To all of my beautiful friends, family and followers across my social media platforms for sending me literally thousands of messages of love and support – thank you so much and I’m so sorry I haven’t managed to reply to you all individually but please know how grateful I am.
‘To my incredible manager Alison Sloan and my phenomenal team who put me together on the day – thank you. You made me look and feel more beautiful than I’ve ever felt performing in my entire life.
‘Finally I want to thank Robbie Williams for his unconditional kindness to invite me to sing with him onstage in the first place.
‘To watch you perform and have the crowd in the palm of your hand for over 2hrs straight last night was jaw dropping and a master class in live vocals and stage craft. You are a beautiful soul and I’m so lucky to count you as a friend.
‘It’s been 22 years since I won Pop Idol and I feel so truly blessed to still be performing at this level after All This Time.’
