Charlotte Dawson has lashed out at critics who have trolled her after her three stone weight loss.
The 29-year-old decided to overhaul her fitness regime earlier this year, after she was warned that she was in danger of developing type 2 diabetes.
The reality TV star also developed gestational diabetes when she was pregnant with her son Noah – and has since believed her diet consisting of chips and gravy may have exacerbated the diagnosis.
Taking to her Instagram page, Charlotte shared a video of her new slimmed down figure, and wrote a caption explaining her new look to her 1.3 million followers.

“Check Chazza out! Do ya think I’m sexehhh?!” she asked, playfully, before issuing a statement to trolls.
“If you have nothing nice to say please don’t comment on my posts you will get blocked,” she said, before detailing the sorts of comments some nay-sayers write on her page.
“These are the best ones: ‘I’m only funny when I was fat,’ ‘Your funny faces are only funny when you were fat.’
“I’m still Chazza the real funny bird just I’ve lost timber for the right reasons! ! For my health.. and I’m proud I still have a bit of my mum tum and my stretch marks.”
Charlotte added: “Only being positive now. I can now run around after Noah.”

Charlotte decided to focus on fitness after she told doctors she was starting to feel “a bit funny”.
She said: "I started this fitness journey with the goal of avoiding type two diabetes because I had gestational diabetes and was warned I was still in danger after Noah was born.”
She added: "My dad had it and died when I was just eight-months-old, so it really was a wakeup call to start getting fit."

When posting her first work out to Instagram, Charlotte said she wanted to be “a little less chunkeh but always funkeh.”
