But with her thinner size eight body, Paige was left with an unexpected issue she now has to overcome.
Despite having her dream body and dressing in leggings to show off every svelte curve - she also developed a dreaded and mortifying 'cameltoe'.
While other 'skinny jab' users have reported developing 'Ozempic face', Ozempic hands, or Ozempic teeth - a more gaunt, aged appearance around the cheeks, jawline and eyes - Paige had developed Ozempic vagina.
It is the newest, and now one of the more unusual side effects of weight loss injectables, according to experts.
She told Fabulous: 'I have lost over 3 stone in four months on weight loss injectables. Now it's left me with Ozempic Vagina. I am shocked.

'My mates call it my Ozempic cameltoe. I have fallen victim to a hidden side effect of weight loss injectables.
'A friend saw me at the gym and asked me if I had a 'hidden package' down below. I blushed red, telling her it was simply 'new knickers'.
'When I looked, I realised my labia had effectively 'lost weight' and sagged a bit."
Admin staffer Paige lives in Birmingham with her long-term partner, Ads, 39, a personal trainer, and was stunned to discover she had fallen victim to this hidden side effect.
I LOVE my new 'Ozempic face' - it looks like I got jawline filler, I look 10 years younger AND I lost 60lbs
Just like every other part of skin, the labia, which is the skin and lips surrounding the vulva, can be affected by fat loss.

The labia can sag, and the wings or lips can become less full, saggy and even longer.
This can occur as the body ages or when women undergo menopause, childbirth or in Paige's case, significant weight loss.
The labia or outer lips go from being plumped to being saggy and baggy – losing tone and shape.
It causes the bottom of the labia to look more obvious in leggings, tight jeans or shorts.
I'd worked so hard to get this size eight body to be hit with this totally unexpected and unusual side effect
Paige Osprey, 30
Amanda Bradshaw, PRP & stem cell specialist at Blend Clinic, explains: "There's increasing anecdotal evidence that rapid weight loss with Ozempic can lead to changes in the vaginal area, including a sensation of looseness.

"This happens because dramatic fat loss doesn't just affect the face or body but impacts the vulva and vaginal canal too.
"The fatty pads that give structure and support to the vaginal walls can shrink, leading to reduced tone and altered sensation during sex or even when using tampons.
"Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a popular treatment for this.
"We take the patient's own blood, concentrate the healing platelets, and inject it into targeted areas of the vagina.
"This stimulates collagen and elastin production, increases blood flow, and helps restore tissue strength and natural lubrication.

"After the procedure, women often report improved tightness, sensation and confidence within a few weeks, without the downtime or invasiveness of surgery.'
'It's depressing'
Paige set about researching the topic and discovered she may have fallen victim to Ozempic Vagina or Ozempic cameltoe as it is becoming known.
'I'd worked so hard to get this size eight body to be hit with this totally unexpected and unusual side effect. It was depressing.
'Self confidence can be crippled so easily. Self confidence surrounding this particular area is even easier to shatter and mine was.'

Paige admits she has spent her past 30 years battling weight-related issues, and to be struck by this side effect destroyed her self-esteem.
'I was born weighing ten pounds and have battled to be slim since then," she says.
'And growing up, I was known as the 'fat friend.' I thought Ozempic was finally my cure to end the weight struggles, but then I had been left with this issue.

'It was my 30th birthday that made me get the motivation to make a change, so I sat down in January and ordered the weight loss injections online, paying £160 for a month's supply.
My partner said I was being silly but I knew once I began worrying it was going to be an issue until I fixed it

'Within three hours of the first injection, a sudden peace was over me. The desire to seek out calorie rich treats was gone.
'The food in my head was quiet.
'I had been through a long weight battle just to get to the solution of weight loss injectables.
'I wish they'd been available when I was a teenager because it would have meant I could have controlled my weight.

By April Paige had lost almost three stone and says she was more energised, confident and felt more in control because she was giving herself the weight loss jab than she had ever done in her life.
She says: 'The jab gave me the power and seeing the three stone fall off I felt pride in myself for the first time in my life.
'I had learnt to control the weight using the jab."
However, that's when Paige says she noticed the appearance of her Ozempic Vagina or so-called cameltoe.

According to Paige her 'Ozempic vagina' made her lose confidence in the bedroom as well.
She says: 'I had a new thinner body but I felt the effects down below.

'I hated that and my love life was affected. I felt uncomfortable.
'My partner said I was being silly but I knew once I began worrying it was going to be an issue until I fixed it.
'I never thought weight loss would have this impact. Women don't talk about loss of tone. That's why I am sharing what happened to me.
'When I researched the topic and realised, I'd suffered loss of taught-ness in my labia, and it was untoned and flopping because of weight loss jabs. I was stunned.
'Problems with your 'other lips' is not something you think will happen.

Olivia Attwood exposes the dangers of weight loss procedures in new show
In her latest documentary series for ITV2, presenter and model Olivia Attwood explores weight loss jabs, scary surgeries and the lengths people will go to for their looks Presenter and model Olivia Attwood, a Love Island alumni, knows a thing or two about the pressures to look perfect. Over the years, she had indulged in the 'odd tweakment or two', admitting she's a bit addicted to lip filler. 'I will try anything,' she says. She thinks Kim Kardashian is the ideal of perfection and totally understands this need to keep chasing a desire for the perfect selfie. This all makes her the ideal person to make these documentaries, as she explores the booming business of cosmetic procedures - and the huge dangers - without judgement and with a vested interest. A warning, if you're squeamish you might want to have a cushion ready as this series is a no holds barred look at nips, cuts, tucks and nauseating surgeries. In this latest series, Olivia Attwood: The Price Of Perfection (starts June 12, ITV2, 10.05pm), Olivia investigates six different aspects of the cosmetic world - weight loss, smile, skin, the 'Mummy Makeover', men and 'Spending £100k and counting'. Not only does she speak to patients and practitioners, but she even hops onto the table to try some out for herself - from the latest in energy treatments to the benefits of salmon sperm injections. Starting with weight loss, Olivia says: 'Big boobs, big bums and body positivity may have changed the way we feel about our figures at times, but as far as I can remember, being thin has and probably always will be, in fashion.' Olivia interviews Kate Moss's fashion model sister Lottie, who was hospitalised after misusing Ozempic. Lottie says: 'I always felt compared to Kate. I felt a lot of pressure to be like her and to look like her. I got the Ozempic from a doctor who was giving it out on the sly with no questions asked. Within two weeks, I'd lost 6 or 7kg. I had a seizure. I was terrified. I honestly felt like I was dying. It wasn't worth it.' Olivia also talks to people using fat-busting injections (even when they don't know what's in them) and follows a woman to Turkey as she has 360 liposuction and a Brazilian Butt Lift. Frank, funny and relatable, Olivia is not afraid to ask the big questions in this eye-opening (and sometimes eye-popping) series. Olivia Attwood: The Price of Perfection is airing on ITV2 tonight at 10.05pm. There's plenty more on TV tonight - here's the best of the rest.. DNA JOURNEY, ITV1, 9pm Cold Feet stars Fay Ripley and Hermione Norris are the first in the spotlight in this new series, which will also feature Jo Brand and Julian Clary and Sam Thompson and Marvin Humes as celeb twosomes. Using advanced DNA technology and genealogy, the duos will unlock hidden secrets from their family trees as they discover amazing revelations about their descendants, fascinating stories of unknown ancestors, and meetings with newly-found living relatives. 'I do feel nervous,' says Hermione. 'I didn't sleep a wink, I woke up at 3am with my normal menopausal angst. I don't know anything about my family.' While Fay adds: 'I've been haunted by my ancestors. It will be interesting to see where the acting comes from.' Their first instruction is to go to St Paul's Cathedral, where Fay makes a discovery about an elite printer in her past. And in Chester-le-Street, Hermione finds out about a mining background and a prank that went terribly wrong, involving a loaded gun. Her ancestor accidentally killed his best friend, believing the gun was not loaded. Hermione says: 'I don't know how you keep breathing if you've killed another human being, your best friend.' However, she then discovers the ancestor went on to rescue men and boys during a mining tragedy and then campaigned for safer mines, being hailed a hero. 'I'm proud that I come from mining stock," Hermione adds. As Fay and Hermione's journey continues, they discover their ancestors also include a Swedish immigrant and a music hall manager. THE SAVOY: GREAT HOTELS THROUGH TIME, 5, 9pm Tucked away in an exclusive part of London's West End is The Savoy, the capital's first purpose-built luxury hotel - and its history is fascinating. When it opened nearly 140 years ago it was a groundbreaker. It was the first hotel in London to have electric lighting, ensuite bathrooms and 'ascending rooms' - also known as lifts! It also has the longest surviving cocktail bar in London and the theatrical lobby, with its marble floor and mahogany walls, sending you back to a different era. Actor Nigel Haver says: 'People go to LA for showbiz. You don't have to, you go to The Savoy.' Sweeping through the history of the place, this documentary explores how The Savoy has always been a favourite of the rich and famous, including Hollywood screen siren Marilyn Monroe and our own royalty, Princess Diana. She celebrated her 30th birthday party there with 15,000 balloons and Prince Charles famously didn't attend. Frank Sinatra, Winston Churchill and Vivien Leigh have dined there, French painter Claude Money has painted from a hotel balcony, fuelled by two cooked English breakfasts a day. Today, if you have a few grand for the night, you can stay in his suite and attempt your own version of a Monet painting. EMMERDALE, ITV1, 7.30pm The police reveal they believe Nate was killed on the day he was supposed to leave for Shetland and Tracy says she was at Vanessa's for that entire day. Later on, Vanessa looks like a deer in headlights when DS Walsh asks her to corroborate her sister's alibi in an official statement. Mandy and Paddy persuade Bear to go and see Liam about his insomnia. Kerry throws Pollard a surprise party but is horrified to hear he's planning to sell the barn. EASTENDERS, BBC1, 7.30pm It's Kat and Alfie's wedding day (again), but their concerns about Tommy and the video cast a shadow of their happiness.

Lottie Moss makes jaw-dropping confession after 'terrifying' Ozempic overdose
TV star and model Lottie Moss has opened up on her scary experience of having a seizure following an overdose of Ozempic as she admitted she's thought about taking it again Model Lottie Moss has discussed her 'terrifying' experiences with medication Ozempic on a new ITV show. The young model has revealed she was hospitalised after taking the medication, which is used to treat diabetes. Lottie, Kate Moss' younger half-sister, said: 'I'd lost like, six or seven kg, like, it was so dramatic. "Coming off really quickly, and you almost don't even notice it, because you're so sick and, like, tired all the time. That's why they, like, rushed me to the hospital. In the ER, I started to feel something really weird happen as soon as I got on the bed, I had the seizure, and they were holding me down. I was terrified. "I do remember it, I started to feel, I honestly felt like I was dying. And it sounds really dramatic, but I've never had a seizure before. And I was just like this so isn't worth it? Like, what am I doing to my body? Like, why did I feel like I needed to do this. "But I remember when I was just after I'd come out the hospital, I felt good because I was so slim, and I get how that feeling can be so addictive now.' Despite all the pain and horror, Lottie says she has 'thought about' going back to the injections before remembering it 'didn't work out for a reason'. Other celebrities have used the jabs or similar ones including Sharon Osbourne and Gemma Collins. While some have used the medication for weight loss purposes, the drug isn't licensed for this. Instead, it is used to treat diabetes and side effects of the drug is weight loss. On ITV show The Price Of Perfection, Olivia Attwood speaks to Lottie and also continues her search for how science and social media are redefining beauty as we all chase the perfect selfie. Lottie decided to open up on her scary hospital experience last year as she wanted to warn people of the dangers. She said on her Dream On with Lottie Moss podcast that her face and hands clenching up was one of the 'scariest' things she has ever gone through. Medical professionals told her that the dosage she was injecting into her leg would have been prescribed to someone who weighed at least 100 kilos despite the star being in 'her 50s' range. She said: "A few months ago, I was not feeling happy about my weight, I had a friend, and she could get it for me. "It was below board, from a doctor, but it wasn't like you go into a doctor's office and he prescribes it for you, takes your blood pressure, and takes tests, which is what you need when you go on something like Ozempic. At the end of the day, it is a medication, it is dangerous and really meant for weight loss of people of a very large size. "When I was taking it, the amount that I was taking was meant for people who are 100 kilos and over and I'm in the 50s range. It's these small things I wish I'd known before taking it. But I took it, you inject it into your leg, and it was the worst decision I ever made. She added: "I would rather die any day than take it again. It made me feel so nauseous. I took it for two weeks. It comes with a pen and different doses, you take one injection one week, one injection the next week and you take it every week, and I've never felt sicker in my life. I was throwing up, it was horrible. I took a lower dosage the first time I took it then I went up higher. I ended up being in bed for two days, felt so sick, my weight had dropped." The new series of Olivia Attwood: The Price of Perfection is available this Thursday on ITVX.

Olivia points out: 'You're not meant to lose weight that quickly.' Lottie continues: 'This is the thing.

A shocked Olivia asks her: 'Do you remember that?' Lottie confesses: 'I do remember it. I started to feel... I honestly felt like I was dying. 'It sounds really dramatic, but I've never had a seizure before. 'I was like "This so wasn't worth it... What am I doing to my body?" 'Why did I feel like I needed to do this? 'I remember when I had just come out of the hospital, I felt good because I was so slim and I get how that feeling can be so addictive now.'

The model was rushed to hospital after she took high doses of Ozempic given to her by a friend who bought it under the counter from a doctor. The model was violently ill, suffering a seizure and severe dehydration after taking the drug when she weighed around 60kg - just 9stone. She said she would rather 'die' than use Ozempic again, which is meant to treat the obese or diabetics and has suffered global shortages.

She said there were, 'small things I wish I'd known before taking it' and revealed her weight plummeted to around 53kg in a few weeks. After being seen by medical professionals, Lottie learned the dosage of Ozempic she was injecting into her leg should be prescribed to someone weighing at least 100 kilos - nearly double her size. Lottie explained: 'A few months ago, I was not feeling happy about my weight, I had a friend, and she could get it for me. 'It was below board, from a doctor, but it wasn't like you go into a doctor's office and he prescribes it for you, takes your blood pressure, and takes tests, which is what you need when you go on something like Ozempic. 'At the end of the day it is a medication, it is dangerous and really meant for weight loss of people of a very large size.

But I took it, you inject it into your leg, and it was the worst decision I ever made. 'This is a warning to everyone. Please, if you're thinking of taking it, do not take it, it's so not worth it.' The OnlyFans star described the severe side effects she suffered as a result of taking the drug such as vomiting, losing the colour in her face, and dramatically dropping in weight.
