Roxy Jacenko shows off her weight loss in skimpy bikini and racy lingerie after praising supplement she calls 'natural Ozempic'
Roxy Jacenko is clearly enjoying the result of her recent weight loss.
The PR queen, 44, shared some racy images to her Instagram Stories this week showcasing her incredible new figure.
In one photo, she posed for a mirror selfie while posing in lacy red lingerie, her taut abs on show.
Roxy also shared a close up image in which she flaunted her white bra, as well as wearing a skintight workout ensemble.
As she holidays in Bali, Roxy also showed off her bikini body as she lay by the pool in a colourful bikini.
Roxy has admitted to trying Ozempic in the past to lose weight but suffered a terrifying overdose.
But now she swears by a new supplement which she has called a 'natural Ozempic'.
She recently gave an insight into her daily ritual and 18kg weight loss.
According to the website, Eimele provides 'plant-powered solutions' for a variety of concerns, including weight management.
The brand's Calibrate Reds Max is said to help 'limit sugar and carb absorption' while simultaneously 'reducing fat storage'.
The powder sachets are designed to be taken dissolved in water at the start or during the biggest meal of the day.
Roxy previously revealed the extreme measures she goes to in order to maintain her goal weight of just 50.9kg.
She told Daily Mail Australia she is doing daily contrast therapy, which involves taking baths in warm and cold water from Monday to Friday.
This method is believed to help to improve blood circulation throughout your body.
She also does 40 minutes in an infra-red sauna each day before completing a 45-minute workout on the treadmill at speed 6 and rolling hills, as well as low-weight exercises.
'I don't do breakfast or lunch, instead I do dinner at 7pm each day which is focused on protein only and salad,' she explained.
Roxy also revealed she eats just one meal a day at dinner which is focused on protein only.
'Last night I had grilled calamari, rocket, pear and Parmesan salad. If I'm desperate for something sweet, I have dark chocolate-covered sultanas.'
Roxy also recently spoke about the terrifying moment she overdosed on Ozempic in an effort to lose weight.
She revealed she'd taken four times the recommended dosage before she suffered from severe vomiting and non-stop shaking.
'I put so much weight on. I would have to undo my jeans when I sat in the car so I got sucked in by it,' she explained on The Lazy CEO Podcast with Jane Lu.
'I bought it, I tried it. I took four times the amount in the first go.'
Roxy continued by saying she's 'so sick of people' who deny using Ozempic, adding: 'I call a spade a spade on my platform and I don't care.'
She also previously said she thought she was going to 'die' after taking one milligram of the diabetic treatment, which was four times the amount prescribed to her by a doctor.
'I thought I was actually going to die. I have had cancer, radiation therapy, all of that. It doesn't even compare to how bad I felt when I took this drug,' she told The Saturday Telegraph.
'For the first 12 hours I was OK. I vomited four times that morning, once in a hire car, and I went to work.'
Roxy revealed she then suffered from severe vomiting and non-stop 'epilepsy type' shaking which landed her in a drug overdose clinic for three days.

Race Across the World: the final, review: emotional, thrilling and far more than just a contest
Our critic, Michael Hogan, will be joining you in the comments below just after 10pm to talk about the highlights of this year's series Globetrotting contest Race Across the World (BBC One) climaxed with thrills, spills and worthy winners. It was impossible not to cheer as mother-and-son duo Caroline and Tom triumphed in a tense dash to the finish line. It made for a fitting end to their Asian adventure and testament to the joys of multi-generational travel. After seven weeks and 13,000km (8,000 miles in old money), the four remaining teams embarked on the last leg. Travelling to the southernmost tip of India at Kanyakumari was a frenetic trek, cunningly edited for maximum jeopardy. Viewers could be forgiven for nibbling their fingernails or squealing at their screens. This final began with Caroline and Tom in pole position, having opened up a seven-hour lead. Sisters Elizabeth and Letitia were their closest rivals, a mere 54 minutes ahead of Welsh childhood sweethearts Fin and Sioned. Canny brothers Brian and Melvyn had led until a disastrous penultimate leg left them way back in last place. Could they claw back the 19-hour gap? Crunch time meant a choice between sticking to the scenic coastal route or heading inland in the hope of better transport connections. Caroline and Tom blew their advantage with an overnight delay. Brian and Melvyn gambled on expensive taxis to kickstart their comeback. Fuelled by 'beer and biryani', they were closing in. Race Across the World is far more than just a contest. It's also an immersive travelogue and intimate reality show. Viewers got a Michael Palin-esque, ground-level view of India's southern states, from the cantilevered fishing nets to the vibrant flower markets. Our cockles were warmed by the helpful, friendly locals – including the sweet young man who bought Fin and Sioned a bagful of provisions and a couple who cheerfully invited Elizabeth and Letitia to their wedding. A welcome reminder of the kindness of strangers. Cynics might scoff at 'sob stories'. I'd call it reflectiveness at the end of an epic journey. Producers ramp up the emotional stakes, of course, but such are the ebbs and flows of human relationships. Brian and Melvyn had drifted apart but bonded again in their 60s. Naturally, the wry Northerners refused to say they loved each other. Tom helped Caroline rediscover her sense of purpose. Elizabeth and Letitia's strained relationship was now repaired. Teenage couple Fin and Sioned, the youngest ever contestants, had gone from bickering to buying matching flower garlands, maturing before our very eyes. You don't get such a variety of human stories on Love Island. Especially when Tom admitted he was 'too hot' to propose. The show's magic formula has seen it grow from a BBC Two experiment to a primetime BBC One hit with a celebrity spin-off and multiple Bafta wins. In six years, Race Across the World has become a flagship format and staple of the schedules. It not only provides escapism but makes a persuasive advertisement for smartphone-free, slower-paced travel. An exhortation to venture out of one's comfort zone and embrace new experiences. As the land mass of India narrowed towards its tip, so did the race. All four pairs were in close proximity and blew their remaining budget on taxis. They sped in fishing boats across a sapphire blue bay, then abandoned their backpacks and sprinted to sign their names in the hallowed checkpoint book. After 51 days, incredibly, there was just 19 minutes in it. Caroline and Tom pipped the sisters to the post, with the lovebirds in third and the 'pale old codgers' three hours behind. They'd caught up, but not enough. 'Beer?' asked Melvyn, true to form. 'Desperately and definitely,' gasped Brian. When everyone sportingly toasted the winners, it made for a typically wholesome sign-off. As always, this was more about the journey than the destination. Like Tom told his tearful mother, the experience they'd shared meant they'd already won. 'While I'm standing here sweaty, smelly and exhausted, I feel on top of the world,' beamed Caroline. 'I felt like such a failure to begin with. We must never doubt ourselves again.' A lesson for us all. Ever-competitive Caroline wanted to race home again. The rest preferred to travel in comfort. They'd earned it.

I was fat-shamed for being a curvy PT – insecure haters say I have zero muscles and I'm unfit, I love proving them wrong
A PERSONAL trainer has hit back at hateful trolls who branded her "unfit with zero muscles" - and proved just how strong she is. Eilish Toal, 29, runs SHE Coaching - which stands for stronger, healthier and empowered - in Glasgow and has 42 clients on her books. 5 5 The midsize fitness fanatic can deadlift 100kg, does burpees for fun and has completed three gruelling Hyrox competitions. But she admits it's "easy to get imposter syndrome" when she reflects on her thriving role as a PT. She told Fabulous: "I was really worried about how other personal trainers were going to perceive me for such a long time. "But I think it's got to a point where I know the value that I'm bringing. I know what I'm doing for girls, so I think it's absolutely incredible. "There's a lot of girls who have never been bigger, which is fine, but obviously until you've lived in a bigger body, it is kind of impossible to know how it moves, if that makes sense." Eilish, from Glasgow, was always the "bigger kid" in class as a youngster and was in age 10 clothing by the time she was seven-years-old. Fast forward to her first communion in primary school and she had to wear an adult's size 10. She said: "Then I went to high school, played basketball, but I was still bigger. "I think I pushed friends away, if a guy ever said they liked me, I was absolutely not believing that, and I just constantly put myself down." She then found herself in a vicious binge eating cycle until she was 25 and decided to overhaul her lifestyle. The former radiographer started her health journey while she still worked for the NHS. She admits that she 'fell into pretty terrible habits' during lockdown and decided to throw herself into her love for the gym instead. 'I love working with people and I decided to become a personal trainer", she said. "I decided that at my heaviest weight. I thought I have always wanted to do this and I'm not going to let it [my weight] hold me back. 'So I lost some weight over the next year and then I finally finished the PT course in January 2023.' She's seen huge success in her job so far, using her own previous struggles and curvier figure to support her clients with more than just hip thrusts. But she admits there is still a stigma around bigger people in gyms. She said: "They don't feel like they're welcome. I think bigger people do get treated differently than folk in smaller bodies. "People really need to widen their thoughts and realise that there are people who just don't feel comfortable in the gym." Troll takedown And people on social media can be just as narrow-minded about fitness. Eilish was recently hit with a cruel message under one of her workout videos, which read: "Girl you have zero muscle, look v unfit, overweight. Personal trainers should be neither of these things, it's ridiculous." But she expertly clapped back at the "insecure" troll and educated them on the true meaning of being fit. 5 5 In a video addressing the hater, she said: "Gal, I do not know what you're so deeply unhappy about, but no one is that mean and nasty without having some sort of insecurity. "Overweight? Yes, I can agree with that, but no muscle and very unfit. I Absolutely cannot. "I implore you, please come and train with me for a day because I can assure you it's not f***ing easy. "I could take the easy way out, but I love training hard. I've completed two Hyrox competitions at the men's weights, Hyrox doubles, and I've completed a solo Hyrox. I can run and I can lift some fairly heavy s***. "Again, am I the strongest person in the world? No. I am certainly not the leanest, but I certainly am NOT unfit. "In a world of girls supporting girls, this is absolutely gutting to see and I cannot believe the hate that's coming from you. "I've worked hard at bettering myself for years and this is why I'm a good coach. "And this is why people gravitate towards me because I am NOT the usual personal trainer. I will completely agree with that. However, that does not make me a bad personal trainer. "I do have muscle, I do have strength, and I do have fitness and I show people that they can have that too." Eilish's video quickly racked up 69,000 views on her TikTok page (@eilish_shecoaching) with people applauding her "perfect response". Gym support And many nervous gymgoers have insisted she would be the dream personal trainer to work with. One said: "Honestly I wish there is more PTs that represented what the majority of females look like! You look incredible." "I would be more inclined to go to this woman for personal training, also serving body", wrote a second. A third agreed: "The way I would feel SO comfortable knowing I was working with someone who has felt things I've felt and struggled in ways I have." A fourth chimed in: "You'd be my number 1 pick if I could afford a PT. Your body looks like something I would aim to achieve, others are so unrealistic for me." A fifth pointed out: "Being fit is a testable measure, 'looking fit' is a bs beauty standard that is constantly changing. You're killing it girl and you're helping me try and get back into fitness." And a sixth echoed: "Being fit and looking fit can be two totally different things! You are absolutely smashing it." 5 The support has left modest Eilish overwhelmed - but has motivated her to help as many women as possible build healthier habits and their self-confidence. She said: "The pressure on people is massive, so if I can help, if I can show someone, one person, that they don't have to be that much under pressure, I'm more than happy to. "A lot of my clients are wanting to lose weight, but we're looking at sustainable and long-term ways of doing that, and still living your life. It's not a fad, it's general lifestyle changes. "It's all about knowing you deserve better, and changing that narrative. It's small steps, it's little bits at a time, but it makes such a difference. "And for me, it's celebrating their wins. Everyone's wins are different. So for someone it might be 'I've not binged this week' and that is absolutely incredible. "It's about how you feel, it's not just 'have you lost weight'." She continued: "Everyone's got different goals. Not everyone trains to look smaller or be smaller. "I love the fact that I'm not small and lean, and I can still look at myself, and find love. It's total self-acceptance. "Traditionally, personal training has always been to look a certain way, but it's not everyone's goal. "I want to be the change in the industry and I want to be able to help as many women as I possibly can, and men. Men suffer as well. "I'm actually just really excited to see what the rest of the year brings, because I hope this is the start of the big girl fights back, the Big Girl Takeover. That's what we're going for."

‘It's very easy to make yourself appear like Bono': Warren Ellis on opening an animal sanctuary in Sumatra
When the pandemic forced musicians all over the world to cancel tours, Warren Ellis decided to take his career in a new direction. From the bounds of his home he co-founded an animal sanctuary in Sumatra, Indonesia. In 2021 the Dirty Three virtuoso and Nick Cave collaborator was introduced to the veteran animal rights activist Femke den Haas. Together they established the centre for old, disabled and displaced animals who couldn't be released into the wild. The sanctuary – Ellis Park – now lends its name to a documentary by the True History of the Kelly Gang film-maker Justin Kurzel: a stirring portrait of the park's inhabitants and dedicated caretakers. Immortalising Ellis's poignant first visit to the park in 2023, the documentary traverses the lush vegetation of Sumatra and ventures to Ellis's home town, Ballarat, and his studio in Paris, offering a glimpse into the life of a famously private Australian musician. 'I was very concerned at one point when we had half filmed it, and tried to get it stopped,' he says. Kurzel first heard about sanctuary during a catchup with Ellis at the 2021 Cannes film festival. 'Justin said to me, 'I'm curious why you did it and I think the answer's back where you were born,'' Ellis says. Returning to the schoolyard of his childhood and to his parents' home, the film's first half shows Ellis reckoning with his past in real time. In striking, intimate vignettes, he reflects on the indelible influence of his father – a musician who sacrificed the seeds of his dream career to care for his young family, and who taught Ellis songwriting by singing verses from poetry books. 'We filmed in there four days before the whole family disintegrated,' Ellis says, recalling his parents' ill health and his father's eventual death. 'I never thought I'd put that much of myself in [the film], and, as it transpired, the camera was on me when there were some big life things going on.' It was a conversation with a film-maker and fellow Cave accomplice, Andrew Dominik, that soothed Ellis's anxieties about being overexposed. 'If you're going to get something from it,' Dominik told him, 'you've got to open yourself up to the process.' When Ellis met Den Haas, the latter was running the Sumatra Wildlife Center, a 'tiny' reserve that provided vital rehabilitation to injured wildlife, especially victims of abuse and the illegal exotic pet trade. During their first conversation, Den Haas told Ellis about a 5,000 sq m plot of land neighbouring the centre. He immediately promised to buy it and donate the land to provide essential housing for unreleasable animals. 'He said, 'Doubts are toxic. There are no doubts; we just do it,'' Den Haas remembers. 'Within two weeks, we started to look at the land and make the deal with the landowners.' Within three or four months, the centre's size had increased fivefold and the sanctuary was operational. About this time 1,300 trafficked animals were confiscated nearby. For Den Haas, the timing was 'magical'. With the sanctuary up and running, her team now had the resources to offer these animals – many of them captured in Africa – life-saving veterinary care and shelter. Ellis Park provides a window into the lives of these animals and their caretakers, introduced in balletic, slow-motion closeups thanks to the deft, unobtrusive work of its cinematographer, Germain McMicking. 'Not once was his presence felt; he just dances around everything,' Ellis says. Sign up to What's On Get the best TV reviews, news and features in your inbox every Monday after newsletter promotion While Den Haas has previously protected the animals from overreaching film crews, she appreciated the sensitivity of Kurzel's team. 'They really came and filmed things how they were … And when you're watching the film, you get to see [the animals'] emotions and understand they're all individuals and have a unique and horrific background.' Ellis was conscious of the risks involved in documenting his own philanthropy: 'The problem is, it's very easy to make yourself appear a Bono-like character who's just grandstanding.' Upon his arrival in Sumatra, Den Haas welcomes him with open arms, inviting him to release an eagle rehabilitated by the centre. For Ellis, this posed a dilemma: he didn't want to 'look like some privileged guy that has built an animal sanctuary [to] blow out the candles [when] it's not even my birthday'. But with Den Haas's coaxing, Ellis accepts the honour in the film's moving climax. 'He didn't want to be in the spotlight, like, here's the guy that made it all possible,' Den Haas says. 'But he did make it all possible.' Ellis describes the film as an 'accident' that developed organically through his trust in Kurzel. Accordingly, the documentary has a living quality. The score – by Ellis, of course – was recorded as it was made, with the musician shown tinkering on his violin in paddocks and monkey cages, as well as improvising in the studio. These images cede to scenes shot in Sumatra while the embryonic music lingers – a reflection of the sanctuary's evolving form. Working on a film 'enables you to step out of that protective comfort zone that a band allows you to have and just do your thing for a common cause', says Ellis, for whom 'preciousness' is a young person's game. This common cause is clear in Ellis Park. Since the film was shot, the sanctuary has received an influx of bear cubs and baby gibbons whose mothers have been killed or injured by perpetrators of the illegal pet trade. Den Haas hopes it will soon shelter the bears in forested enclosures. The sanctuary is still growing, and so is Ellis. 'You know, I went over there expecting the film to be about abused monkeys and primates and birds,' he says, 'and I left there realising the most extraordinary animals are people.' Ellis Park is out now in Australian cinemas. The film will be released in the UK and Ireland in autumn 2025
