Gemma Collins has been posting pictures of her new, slimmer self on Instagram recently – and she looks fabulous!

The TOWIE star, 38, has reportedly shed three stone, leaving many people in awe at how she’s achieved so much weight loss.

Well, we may finally have the answer. The Sun’s website published a story today claiming that Gemma has been receiving special injections.

According to the report, The GC is undergoing the Skinnyjab weight-loss plan, which sees customers receiving a series of appetite-suppressing injections.

SkinnyJab’s website states: “Using a tried-and-tested medical revolution which acts as an appetite suppressant, the SkinnyJab® plan can reduce your hunger, allowing you to eat less while avoiding the cravings for those troublesome snacks.

“Over a significantly short period of time, ​the SkinnyJab® plan can suppress your appetite for big portions of food, effectively shrinking your stomach and preparing your body to expect less food.”

An initial three-week plan costs £250, with repeat injections priced at £135 each.

Meanwhile, a rep for SkinnyJab told Metro.co.uk: “Gemma has successfully used our weight loss programme.”

The company added on their Instagram page: “Her weight loss secret has officially been revealed!

“We have been working with Gemma to help her lose those stubborn pounds. THIS IS NOT A FAST FIX TO WEIGHT LOSS, ITS A KICKSTART TO A HEALTHIER LIFESTYLE!”

Earlier this year, Gemma suggested that her amazing weight loss was partly down to a vegan diet.

Sharing a video of herself looking slender in a white tracksuit, she told her followers: “Thanks for your weight-loss comments. My hard work is defo paying off. #veganlifestyle #eatlifenotdeath.”

And Gemma’s fitness instructor Vicky Young confirmed to New! magazine last month that her client had been on a healthy diet (albeit not a strictly vegan one).

She said of the star, who’s been appearing on The Crystal Maze recently: “For breakfast she’ll have poached eggs, avocado, and tomatoes on sourdough; then lunch will be a big salad with kale, peppers and avocado, with either chicken or tuna steak.

“For dinner, I make her vegetarian curries, or sometimes it’s chicken and halloumi kebabs with peppers on a skewer and tzatziki salad.”

However Gemma has been losing weight, one thing’s for sure – her fans are loving it.
