Amy Childs displays her extreme weight loss in a yellow top and shorts set as she nips out to run errands in Essex
The OG TOWIE star, 35, stepped out in Essex on Thursday to buy groceries from Sainsbury's.
Amy embraced casual chic in a matching butter yellow lounge set, consisting of a corseted hooded sweater and drawstring shorts, which showed off her trim figure.
She paired the look with cream chunky flatform sandals and black sunglasses, and carried her keys and iPhone.
Picking up her week's shopping, Amy was seen pushing a Sainsbury's trolley filled with bags.
It comes after she revealed the real reason behind her extreme weight loss after calling off her wedding to her fiancé Billy Delbosq.
Addressing the weight loss and cruel trolling she's received as a result of the weight loss in an emotional interview with OK! Magazine she said: 'I'm going through so much at the minute that the weight has fallen off me.
'I worry about my mum constantly. She's very emotional – she thinks she's going to have another heart attack.'
'People think I'm not eating, but I do eat. To be honest, I do feel better when I'm a bit heavier than I am at the moment.
'There's so much going on at the minute – it's the result of pure stress. We're also having renovations done in the midst of parenting four kids.'
Amy added: 'But I'm strong, I've been in this industry for 15 years. I've had lots of people concerned about me, which I completely understand, but yes, people can be so quick to judge.'
Amy also explained how she once tried using weight-loss injections 18 months ago, but it made her 'so ill she threw up three or four times'.
TOWIE - which is one of ITVX's most streamed titles with 66million streams in the last 12 months - is back with the brand new series airing on ITV2 and ITVX later this year.
Amy also recently called off her wedding to her fiancé Billy after a stressful period dealing with her mother's ill health and her own extreme weight loss.
The reality star, who is said to be 'gutted' over the decision, has reportedly decided to cancel their impending nuptials to focus on her personal life.
It was previously claimed that Amy's 'perfect' day was under threat and it has now been reported by Closer magazine that the day is totally off for now.
According to the publication, the plans have been pushed back due to 'last minute changes', after she first delayed the wedding in 2023.
An insider said: 'Amy has had to cancel her wedding and she's absolutely gutted. There was going to be a show around it, following the run-up to their big day..
'But they've had to make some last-minute changes based on what's going on in their lives.'
And last month, the mother-of-four also explained that she'd been going through a stressful period with her mother's ill health, as she revealed the real reason for her recent weight loss.
She had previously sparked concern from fans with her new slimmed-down appearance after dropping an incredible two stone.
But last month, she addressed the weight loss and resulting cruel trolling in an emotional interview with OK! Magazine, saying: 'I'm going through so much at the minute that the weight has fallen off me.
'I worry about my mum constantly. She's very emotional – she thinks she's going to have another heart attack.'
'People think I'm not eating, but I do eat. To be honest, I do feel better when I'm a bit heavier than I am at the moment.
'There's so much going on at the minute – it's the result of pure stress. We're also having renovations done in the midst of parenting four kids.'
Amy added: 'But I'm strong, I've been in this industry for 15 years. I've had lots of people concerned about me, which I completely understand, but yes, people can be so quick to judge.'

Based on Jilly Cooper's novel of the same name, the series centres on a group of wealthy media types in the 1980s who are based in the Cotswolds. Advertisement Hayley Atwell (Maja Smiejkowska/PA) Atwell will be playing Helen Gordon, ex-wife of Alex Hassell's Rupert Campbell-Black, and mother of his two children – Marcus and Tabitha, while Everett will play her husband, Malise Gordon. Executive producer Dominic Treadwell-Collins, chief creative officer at Happy Prince, told the Edinburgh TV Festival: 'We have some new guests. 'So some new cast, some of them are newly created characters, with Jilly's blessing, some famous characters. 'And most importantly, we're looking into Rupert more. So we have Rupert's children… but also with them… anyone who knows Jilly Cooper knows that Rupert's ex-wife, Helen, loathes him, and she is married to his old show jumping boss, who's a bit older than her.

I'm a very flawed woman. I've made terrible decisions in my love life.' She added: 'The term, sort of typecast, is always sort of seen as this negative thing.

Further ensemble cast have been announced as Sanditon's Maxim Ays, Mr Loverman star Holly Cattle, Slow Horses star Eliot Salt, and One Day's Jonny Weldon.

Is this the new Gavin and Stacey? 'Genius' BBC sitcom gets 1M viewers an episode - and has even borrowed 'icon' from James Corden's hit show
Gavin and Stacey pulled in 12.3 million viewers with its Christmas special, as the BBC show penned by James Corden and Ruth Jones bowed out in style after 18 years - but there could already be a new pretender to the comedy throne. Here We Go, currently airing on Friday nights on BBC One, first aired in 2022 - after a pilot called Pandemonium in 2020 - and has quietly been woo-ing every generation with its tales of chaotic family life. Its third series, branded 'genius' and a 'hidden gem' by comedy fans, is getting just shy of a million viewers per episode, with previous series commanding up to 1.7 on the BBC iPlayer, with many now calling for a Christmas Day special episode. Set in Bedford, which writer Tom Basden says 'speaks to the whole country', the 'dom-com' is filmed by camera-obsessed 15-year-old Sam and follows the lives of the Jessop family. And there's a very familiar face amongst the cast, with Alison Steadman, who famously plays Pam in Gavin and Stacey, appearing as grandmother Sue. Basden told BBC Radio 5Live last month that he was able to persuade TV comedy legend Steadman, 78, to take on the role because it was first filmed in lockdown, when actors were twiddling their thumbs. The cast also includes other big names, BAFTA winner Katherine Parkinson, who appeared in The IT Crowd and more recently starred as erotic novel writer Lizzie Vereker in Disney+'s adaptation of Jilly Cooper's Rivals. Parkinson plays recruitment consultant turned therapist Rachel, who's wed to ex Olympic archer Paul, who's now a policeman, played by Sex Education star and Ghosts co-writer Jim Howick. Fans tuning into the latest series are as hooked as ever. One commented: 'Genius! Brilliant writing and acting. Waited forever for Series 3 and promised to watch it each week only to have binge-watched it all on day 1!' Another added: 'All 3 series [episodes] have been brilliant. Not enough episodes though. I'm gagging for more! Please do more!' One penned: 'Best show to come out in a while. Absolutely love it. One of those you can re-watch multiple times!' A comedy fan questioned 'How can the BBC get it so right with this, yet serve up rubbish like Mrs Brown's Boys?' Writer Basden, who cut his teeth in the Cambridge Footlights and plays Robin, told the BBC last month: 'It's about a family called the Jessop family who live in Bedford and are a very, very normal family who find themselves in a lot of weird and wonderful situations.' Asked why he chose Bedford as the location for the sitcom, he told the broadcaster: 'I thought Bedford was a really good location for a show that speaks to the whole country. 'I wanted to set the show somewhere that just felt very traditionally English but not really known for being any one particular thing. 'I didn't want it to feel like it's a show about London or a show about Manchester or something.' Following the finale of Gavin and Stacey at Christmas, via a feature-length festive conclusion, the BBC comedy will be grateful Here We Go is winning fans. Gavin and Stacey, which debuted back in 2007 after being created by Corden and Jones, concluded with on/off lovers Smithy and Nessa finally declaring their love for one another and tying the knot, but not without a few hiccups along the way. While the series is officially over, the sitcom's creators are set to release a new book. When Gavin Met Stacey and Everything in Between : A Story Of Love And Friendship will be published in the Autumn and share for the first time how the pair turned their little comedy into a full-on cultural phenomenon. James, 46, and Ruth, 58, said following the announcement: 'We're so excited to be sharing the story behind the story of Gavin and Stacey '. 'The show has played a huge part in our twenty-five-year friendship and we hope this book will give readers a fresh insight into how it all came about.' According to the publisher the book will feature never-before-heard stories and behind the scenes gossip and see James and Ruth recount the rejection, obstacles and challenges they faced on the way to giving birth to their beloved comedy creation and also explore their own real-life friendship. Asked for the secret to the show's success, James added: 'Young people are now watching things at twice the speed that it was ever meant to be formatted at and you're told speed is important. And here's a show that ended 15 years ago, waited ten years to tell another hour of the story, and waited five more years to end it. 'Actually maybe time and patience and care might be the answer for things to have longevity outside of what we consume on our phones.' All episodes of Here We Go are on the BBC iPlayer, with series three episodes airing on Fridays at 9pm.
