She confirmed to fans she would be going through a gruelling transformation full of "blood, sweat and tears" in order to slim down and build up some muscle.
Wearing a simple black two-piece gym set, Lucy showed off her curves in the unfiltered video as she spoke about her nervousness at putting her real body on display for the first time ever.
Lucy-Jo said in the clip: "This is really embarrassing actually filming this as I've never really shown you any of my wobbly bits.
"I like to tuck them all in but this is me with no filters.
"All of me is on show."
The star, who used to be married to Corrie co-star Alan Halsall, added: "I've got 30 days to transform this body to drop 10 pounds and build up some muscle.
"It is gonna be blood, sweat and tears but I am so ready for this journey."
She went on to further open up about her body hang-ups and goals in a caption for the clip in which she admitted she wasn't sure if she even had the confidence to upload the clip at all.
The 42-year-old wrote: "This is me, 42, mum of 2, no filters, no good angles, just me and my wobbly bits. Honestly this video was so hard for me to film and I wasn't sure whether to post it or not.
"But then I thought why the hell not, I'm not perfect, I'm a working mum who never has time for herself and I wanted to do something about it!
"I'm so self conscious of my body, unless I'm fully dressed…. But to take you on this journey I need to be open and honest from the start. So here we go… this is me flaws and all
Lucy went on to reveal her exact weight and what she is hoping to get too, confessing that she wanted to drop 10lbs to reach a final weight of 8st and 13lbs.
Lucy said: "I aim to drop 10lbs, (I am currently 9st 9lbs) and I want to completely change my body shape. I am going to get leaner and build muscle…. Sort my flat a**e out and grow some glutes.
She went on to confess that she would be revealing her transformed body with a photoshoot as she begged her followers to join her on her fitness transformation.

But she added she was expecting to find it difficult as a result of her hectic lifestyle, adding: "We have so much going on in our lives, with events coming up, work & family related. The kids break up from school in a couple of weeks and my life in general is absolutely crazy
But I have been putting this off for well over a year now, and I am so fed up with myself."
Lucy-Jo has never been far from the spotlight since shooting to fame for her small parts in soaps.
She is arguably best known for her former co-star marriage to actor Alan, who plays Tyrone Dobbs in Coronation Street, with whom she shares their daughter, Sienna.
Lucy-Jo originally played gobby Katy Harris for just over two years in the ITV soap until she was written out in 2005.
She later played Donna-Marie in Hollyoaks before eventually going on to pick up an award for Villain of The Year at the British Soap Awards for her role of Rhiannon Davis in Doctors.

Brookside's six craziest celebrity cameos from the Pope to BBC chat show royalty
Ahead of its long-awaited return to our screens, let's look back at the big names who popped by the Channel 4 show during its initial run It's been away from our screens for 22 years, but at last Brookside is staging its much-anticipated comeback – for a limited time only. The beloved Liverpool soap opera will return in October as part of a special crossover episode with Hollyoaks to mark its 30th anniversary. Both programmes are the creation of acclaimed writer Sir Phil Redmond, who expressed his excitement about seeing his two productions come together. He recently said: "I can't wait to see how all the gardens are coping in the heatwave and, who knows, what might pop up if someone decides to re-lay their patio. I know we left something else down there." Brookside, which initially aired on Channel 4 between 1982 and 2003, propelled numerous household names to stardom who have since achieved greater success. Anna Friel secured her television debut as Beth Jordache across two series, while Sue Johnston and Ricky Tomlinson – who portrayed Sheila and Bobby Grant respectively during the 1980s – would later reunite in the late 1990s in the BBC's hit comedy The Royle Family. The soap also proved so successful that it even drew several celebrity guest appearances, and here we examine the six most significant cameos to grace Brookside Close. 1 of 6 Pope John Paul II (1987) 2 of 6 Graham Norton, the Nolans and Carol Smillie (2000) 3 of 6 Lorraine Kelly and Eamonn Holmes (1994) 4 of 6 Paul O'Grady (as Lily Savage, 1994) 5 of 6 Morrissey (1988) 6 of 6 David Seaman (1999)

BREAKING: Michelle Williams, 44, welcomes fourth child as she reveals surrogacy details
Actress Michelle Williams has revealed she has welcomed a baby daughter via a surrogate. Michelle, 44, who is married to Hamilton director Thomas Kail, discussed having three children under the age of five during an appearance on chat show Jimmy Kimmel Live. She is also mother to daughter Matilda, 19, who was born during her relationship with the late actor Heath Ledger. Responding to a compliment on her figure from actress Tiffany Haddish, who is filling in for Kimmel, the Dawson's Creek star said: "Then I've got to give a big shout out to Christine, because this last baby did not come through my body. But the miracle of our little girl is thanks to Christine. Maybe you're watching out there, so thank you Christine. Thanks to Christine, I have three under five at home." It comes as Hollyoaks star, Roxanne McKee, announced she was expecting her first child, aged 45. Discussing how she is managing with three little ones, Michelle said: "Everything's good and under control. I'm the adult. "I'm trying to figure out the sort of life-work balance. "I hear a lot of people are talking about self-care, and I'm just wondering, when? Because I'm a working mom. "I already have the guilt, and I don't want to take more time away from them, but I understand I need to fill up the tank." She joked she had found a solution by "visiting our fine local establishments of government bureaucracy". Williams added: "You say: 'I'm sorry, honey. But one day you're going to grow up, and you're going to get a job. And you're going to pay taxes, and you're going to need a social security number for that.' "And then here's how it goes: I recommend a midday appointment because it's a little bit more crowded. And then you can claim your rightful place at the back of the line where they will let you wait in complete silence for at least one hour. "There is free seating for all. Bring like a nail file and a to-do list and check, check, check." She continued: "If you want a pro hack tip, don't double-check your paperwork because you might have to go back." The actress, who discloses very little information about her private life, is best known for films including The Greatest Showman, Brokeback Mountain, Venom and Blue Valentine. Michell welcomed her first child with Kail in 2020 and a second in 2022.

Peter Andre's wife ‘hurt' by Katie Price's ‘cruel' jabs at her kids – as she vows to protect them from his ‘jealous' ex
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A BOMBSHELL video of Katie Price insulting her ex Peter Andre's youngest kids has left the family sickened - as insiders blast: "She's reached a new low". Following a dramatic week between the feuding families, Pete's "hurt' wife Emily MacDonagh was stunned to hear Katie's cruel dig about her children being "irrelevant". Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 5 Peter Andre and his wife Emily with their three kids together, and Junior and Princess who he shares with ex wife Kate Price Credit: instagram/@peterandre 5 Leaked footage shows Katie Price counting cash with daughter Princess 5 Princess with her mum Katie Credit: Instagram/Princess_andre The fresh twist in the bitter dispute between Junior and Princess's parents has seen Pete call in lawyers - after a 90-second clip was leaked by Katie's second husband Alex Reid. Mum-of-five Katie, who was declared bankrupt at the time, appears to be counting wads of cash in front of Princess while mocking the fact Pete must pay the private school fees for their eldest children. Katie then brands Emily and her two children 'irrelevant' - encouraging Princess to agree with her. 'Your dad is going to have to pay the school fees because of my bankruptcy,' Katie says in the video, believed to have been filmed in 2020. "Does he moan about it? What does Emily say? It's money that could be spent on her and her kids. 'They're not going private, are they, they're irrelevant. No one even knows who they are.' Our source told The Sun: 'Of course the focus has been on the fact Katie is counting cash while claiming to be bankrupt, but Pete has been left horrified by what she said about his family in front of Princess. 'She would only have been about 13 then - and her mum was talking like that about her own brother and sisters. It's disgusting. "Emily is stunned that anyone could speak about children like that. It's a new low. Princess Andre breaks silence on Peter and Katie's bitter feud after his blistering statement 'The family don't want Princess pulled into anymore of her mum's drama. 'For someone who claims to want a peaceful life without any feuds, Katie isn't leading by example.' Katie was referring to her first husband Pete's kids with Emily - Amelia, 11, and eight-year-old Theo. After the video was filmed, the couple went on to welcome a third child, daughter Arabella, last year. 5 Emily is a stepmum to Pete's eldest children Credit: Instagram/@peterandre 5 The pop star has called in lawyers after Princess was dragged into the latest Katie drama Credit: Instagram Since 2018, Princess and Junior have lived full-time at their dad's house - and developed a close bond with stepmum Emily, who has been married to Pete for ten years. He broke his 16-year silence on ex Katie after she sensationally claimed she'd been banned from starring in their daughter's new reality show, The Princess Diaries. Our source added: 'Emily's really hurt by the whole thing. 'She's always been classy and taken the high road, but her protective, motherly instincts have taken over and she's adamant she won't let her kids be dragged down by Pete's ex. 'This all kicked off because of Katie's jealousy. It was her daughter's time to shine, but she had to make it all about her.' In a loose-lipped podcast episode, the mum-of-five furiously claimed Pete and his management banned her from any publicity with her daughter 'because they think I'm trash basically'. Katie said: "Everyone knows she's doing this documentary - and I'm not in it. "Certain people don't think it's good for Princess to be seen with me. ''There's no reason why both parents just can't be there to support her.' She added: Katie went on: 'It's so not fair to bring Princess piggy in the middle. So I think it's about time all of us adults just sit down and talk about what their beef is with me and just get over it. 'Life would be more at peace because I don't have a problem. I just think life would be a better place.' However, those close to Pete says Katie must put her money where her mouth is and end the trash talk once and for all. Our source continued: "Katie needs to stop. One week she is talking badly about everyone and then a few days later she wants to make a peace pact, then she's bad talking them again." "It's insane," they added. Hitting back after Katie's claims Junior and Princess live with her, Pete said last week: "For sixteen years I have stayed silent in the face of repeated lies from my ex-wife and her family, out of respect for my children and loved ones, but staying silent has been incredibly frustrating. "That ends today. The latest comments about my children's welfare and living arrangements compel me to set the record straight. "For well-documented reasons, and for their safety, Junior and Princess came into my care in 2018 and remained with me until they reached adulthood. "In 2019, the family courts issued a legally binding order to enforce this arrangement. I have never made this public before out of respect for my children." Katie Price's missing millions At the peak of her career Katie had an estimated fortune of £45m, thanks to her lucrative modelling career, book deals, and TV appearances. The cash-strapped mum-of-five was first declared bankrupt in 2019 over unpaid debts of £3.2 million. In a podcast interview earlier this year, she blamed her exes who include Peter Andre, Alex Reid and Kieran Hayler and lawyers for her money woes. She insisted that funding her exes' lavish lifestyles with cars, watches, luxury holidays and homes left her finances in tatters. She added: "I went through a breakdown, this is how mine started - lawyers and exes, that is my bankruptcy thing. "And obviously a bit of HMRC. "When I had my breakdown, if anyone has been depressed… I don't know if you've ever had depression. "It starts with depression and you just want to sleep all day and not talk to anyone, the phone would ring and you wouldn't answer it.' In March, Katie was declared bankrupt for a second time over an unpaid tax bill of £761,994.05. The demand for payment was made by HMRC last October. Katie was due to give evidence about her finances at the High Court but failed to turn up - holidaying in Cyprus with her new man JJ Slater instead. Her Mucky Mansion was a bomb site for years after it was burgled, flooded and swamped by an overflowing septic tank. She finally moved out at the end of May and is renting a four-bed mansion in Sussex. He added: 'Unfortunately, there are many more lies and baseless accusations that I have yet to address. Those will be dealt with in the coming months." A spokesman for Pete and Princess's management firm, CAN, told The Sun: 'We never ever get involved in our clients' personal lives unless they ask us to. 'We would never advise our clients to see their parents or not. 'Princess has a good relationship with both of her parents. We would rather not get dragged into any negativity.'
