Gogglebox's Amy Tapper reveals incredible weight loss transformation
by CHLOE LOUISE FOR MAILONLINE · Mail OnlineGogglebox star Amy Tapper revealed her incredible five-stone weight loss journey as she shared an inspirational before-and-after snap to Instagram on Wednesday.
The TV personality, 24, who joined the ITV show in 2013, looked happy as she posed in a tight-fitting white vest top.
Posing for a mirror selfie, Amy took a snap wearing a similar black and white ensemble to one she wore in 2022 to highlight her impressive journey.
Amy has lost a significant amount of weight over the past three years after adopting a healthier lifestyle.
She wrote that she is 'proud of herself' and never thought she was going to reach her milestone.
The reality star – who quit Gogglebox back in 2018 – posted in the caption: 'Officially 5 stone down and I couldn’t be happier. Never thought I’d be able to reach this milestone so I think I can say I’m proud of myself.
'Thank you for being by my side throughout it all @tashelite.fitness (swipe for our reaction today)'
Her comment section was flooded with positive words of encouragement. ‘Amazing!!!!!’ wrote one user.
In another snap shared as part of an album, Amy posted the difference while wearing a tie-dye hoodie before posting a clip of her weighing herself on some scales.
The inspiring snaps come after Amy embarked on a challenge to better herself and went on to lose over 3.5 stone.
At the beginning of 2022, Amy said she had ‘kick-started her year’ by losing 33cm from her waist in five weeks.
She often posts videos of herself working out with weights, boxing and going to the gym so her followers can keep up to date with her weight loss journey.
In November 2022, she admitted years of trolling during her five years on the popular Channel 4 show which spurred her on to try an endless cycle of unhealthy fad diets.
The quick fixes meant Amy never managed to maintain her weight loss, and it's only since she made a 'positive lifestyle change' that her health journey has really taken off.
Amy has revealed how she recognised from a young age she had a bigger build in comparison to the rest of her peers, and despite never being bullied, she was always aware of her size.
She was just 13 when she joined her mother Nikki, 51, father Jonathan 56, and brother Josh, 26, on Gogglebox.
The show instantly propelled her into the public eye and the scrutiny of cruel social media trolls.
Amy admitted she would often type her name into Twitter as new episodes of Gogglebox aired, only to see trolls making negative comments about her weight.
