Towie’s Fran Parman admits she’s ‘struggling’ after 3.5 stone weight loss

THE Only Way Is Essex star Fran Parman has admitted that she’s “struggling” after her 3.5 stone weight loss.

The reality TV favourite – who joined the ITVBe show in 2014 – recently took to Instagram to show off how she’d overhauled her look.

But today Fran, 31, has revealed how shedding the pounds has been a “struggle” and “difficult” at times – especially when it comes to tightening loose skin.

Speaking to OK! she said: “I am slimmer, it’s not what I used to be when I was a child but I don’t know if that’s because I’m getting older again.”

The reality star went on: “I’m trying to figure out something to kind of get that that six pack back. Not so much a six pack but you know… more of a definition.

“I’m struggling with that at the minute – as soon as I figure it out I’m sure I tell everyone on Instagram.”

When asked if she has any loose skin around her tummy as a result of her weight loss, she replied: “A little bit, yeah it’s just a lot of skin. It’s not that bad.

“I mean, I’m sure I can figure out something I’m honestly doing so many sit ups and Russians twists and all of that. And it’s just… I find it very, very difficult to get my skin tight again.”

Last month Fran posted before and after snaps of what she looked like when first joining the show compared to what she looked like now.

The two demonstrated how she had lost weight, as well as used “baby Botox” and filler to keep her youthful look in her 30s.

The photographs showed the difference in Fran’s chiselled cheeks, jaw-line, as well as her slightly plumped lips.

Fran overhauled her image in just eight months after she was targeted with abuse following her return to the ITVBe show.

She had put on more than three stone while caring for her elderly grandfather during the first lockdown.

Unfairly, she was targeted for her size when she returned to film Towie in August following a two-year absence.

Fran since overhauled her diet, ditching sugar and rebooting her exercise regime to return to her trimmer frame in a matter of months.
