Former TOWIE star Lauren Goodger has come under fire from fans after revealing she lost one stone and 4lbs through a strict 21-day juice cleanse in Portugal. The 31-year-old shared her transformation on Instagram, showing off a noticeably slimmer figure in a black vest and grey leggings.
Despite her weight loss, many followers criticised the diet as a 'quick fix' and unsustainable. One fan wrote: 'It's not a long term solution though and more of a quick fix. You need to change your eating habits to maintain the weight loss.' Another joked: 'I'm pretty sure we'd all lose weight if we didn't eat for 3 weeks too #notrocketscience.'
Lauren defended her cleanse on Sunday, posting a photo of herself holding a green juice and explaining that the diet also helped clear her anxiety and tiredness. She wrote: 'My anxiety and tiredness is non existent! This really does show you what your body needs and I feel alive!'
The reality star has been open about her weight struggles and previous liposuction. She slimmed to a size eight in 2015 and released a fitness DVD, but later admitted her weight crept back up to a size 12 in August 2017.
