37-year-old Katie Johnston was rejected by her groom for "not being what he wanted" and she continued to face cruel trolling over her weight online.
It forced that star to seek a quick fix and she openly turned to fat jabs to drop the pounds.
Now, the star has flaunted her new figure in a skintight blue dress.
Katie looked more glam than ever in the gorgeous snap as she opened up on how she was finally feeling better and healthier than ever before.
Taking to Instagram to discuss her weight journey, she said in a lengthy post: "What this moment represents is something so much deeper.
"Through the hardest seasons of my life, I've come out the other side wiser, stronger, and more resilient than ever.
"For the first time in my self-love journey, I've turned my attention to my physical health - not for approval, but for me.
"Today, I am officially healthy. My DEXA scan says I'm free from dangerous visceral fat, strong in both muscle and bone, and thriving instead of just surviving."
She then detailed how exactly she dropped the weight and transformed her look with training and fat jabs.
Katie wrote: "Transparency is my thing so…Weight loss jabs - but we want fat to go not muscle sooooo use @glo_up_1 for the symptoms and the huge protein dose so the body goes after FAT not MUSCLE.
MAFS Australia signs up 'wildest ever bride' for upcoming series as explosive new episodes start filming
"Weight training 3 times a week to turn the protein into muscle for longevity and that will mean burning fat at rest - use a PT at first for technique and if you can't keep going use free videos online."
She then detailed how walking, eating the right foods and watching her protein were all super important on her journey.
The auburn-haired star, 37, found fame on Married At First Sight 's most recent series, where fans were quick to call out her groom Tim Gromie's cruel conduct.
MAFS fans watched in horror as school teacher Tim brutally rejected Katie Johnston just minutes after they said I Do - as he insisted she was nothing like what he "would have wanted".

Magda Szubanski breaks down in tears in moving acceptance speech as she is inducted into the 2025 Logies Hall of Fame
Magda Szubanski broke down on Sunday night as she gave an emotional acceptance speech via video call during her 2025 Logies Hall of Fame induction. The comedian, 64, was unable to attend the event in person because she is immunocompromised as she undergoes treatment for stage 4 cancer. But that didn't stop the Kath and Kim star from bringing the audience to tears with laughter and sadness as she graciously accepted the honour. 'I am so sorry I cannot be there. I do have a good excuse this time, normally I don't come because I can't be bothered getting out of my pyjamas,' she said. 'This time there really is a reason. I want to say first of all, let's get this out of the way, I have not been awarded this honour because I have the cancer.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'I am getting this because of 40 years of hard work. Lobbying, bribing, threatening, whatever it took. Finally it has all paid off,' she joked. Magda then struggled to contain her emotions as she thanked her friends, fans, and supporters. 'The love and support that I have felt, like a tsunami, from the Australian public, it has been overwhelming and I have to tell you, it really helps,' she began. 'I did not think I was going to cry,' she then added as she teared up. 'When I go online and look at those messages, every time, my heart lifts. And I feel that much stronger to deal with the cancer. 'So thank you for the love that you are pouring my way, I really feel it.' A wave of A-list stars stepped out to help induct Magda into the Hall of Fame on Sunday night. Today Extra co-host David Campbell introduced the segment, with Magda being the godmother to his daughter Betty, seven. Stars who shared their tributes included big names like Hamish Blake, Dannii Minogue, Ally Langdon, Julia Morris, and Poh Ling Yeow. The Irwins, Melissa McCarthy, Rebel Wilson, and Kathy Lette were also among many others who shared kind words for the Australian star. Marg Downey accepted the award on her behalf. Magda is the fifth woman to be inducted into the Hall of Fame since it was introduced in 1984. She has joined the likes of Ruth Cracknell, Noni Hazlehurst, Kerri-Anne Kennerley, and Rebecca Gibney. Two months ago, Magda revealed she had been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. She appeared on camera with a shaved head to reveal the shocking news after beginning her treatment for cancer. 'Hello, my lovelies. So, the head is shaved in anticipation of it all falling out in a couple of weeks because I have just been diagnosed with a very rare, very aggressive, very serious lymphoma,' she said. Magda also revealed she has started treatment in Melbourne called the Nordic protocol, which treats mantle cell lymphoma by shrinking the tumours with a combination of drugs administered in five phases. It's known as the Nordic regimen based on its clinical trial sites in Denmark and Norway. The actress explained she will be 'lying very low' due to her weak immune system.

Zoë Foster Blake turns heads at the Logies for the wrong reasons as she's mocked for 'shower curtain' gown
Zoë Foster Blake was attracting attention at the Logies - and some would say for the wrong reasons. The 45-year-old had husband Hamish Blake on her arm as she walked the red carpet at The Star in Sydney. The skincare mogul chose an unusual gown for the occasion, consisting of pearl-toned panels. Inspired by Art Deco designs, the frock included large cuts-outs that showed off her midriff and a hint of bust. The skirting was semi-detached and featured an unusual triangular pattern. Zoë finished the ensemble with a pair of strappy black heels and pearl drop earrings, as well as a number of diamond rings. Not everyone appreciated the author's look, with some comparing it to a 'shower curtain' online. 'I normally love everything Zoë Foster Blake does, says, and wears, but her dress is giving me "I forgot my outfit so used the hotel shower curtain" vibes,' one Logies viewer commented online. Another chimed in: 'Is she wearing a shower curtain?!' Hamish, meanwhile, looked handsome on his wife's arm, contrasting her avant-garde fashion moment with a classic black tuxedo. It comes after news that Zoë is setting out to forge a new career in television. The Go-To skincare mogul has just sold the TV rights to her new novel Things Will Calm Down Soon. And there's a chance that Nicole Kidman will play the book's main character - a businesswoman with a resemblance to the real-life Blake. TV Tonight reported that Blake has made the deal with Sydney-based company Made Up Stories who plan to make the book as a series in the US. The high-profile outfit is led by producer Bruna Papandrea, who has a strong relationship with Kidman. The Hollywood superstar has already starred in a number of Made Up Stories productions, including HBO's The Undoing in 2020 and 2021's Nine Perfect Strangers as well as the Apple+ anthology series Roar in 2022. The Oscar winner also co-produced the 2017 HBO hit Big Little Lies with Papandrea. Blake, who shares Sonny, eight, and Rudy, five, with her radio star husband Hamish, also announced she will be an executive producer on the new series. Things Will Calm Down Soon centres on a 30-year-old hairstylist called Kit who sets out to launch her own product line. But things get complicated as the would-be corporate mogul tangles with investors amidst romantic disappointment and family demands.
