No photoshop required: Lucy Mecklenburgh chose to showcase the results of her consistent workouts in a sexy Instagram snap
She captioned the picture saying: ‘Morninggggg!!! @resultswithlucy workout done!! summer bodies are made in winter!!! #fitness#abselfie #motivation #resultswithlucy’.
Fans were quick to compliment her toned frame as one fan wrote: ‘that's it. I'm calling the personal trainer this weekend’.
While the star is currently at a healthier weight, she came under criticism earlier in the year for being too thin.

Speaking about her weight to Look magazine, she said: ‘I’m fit and healthy, and I eat well because it makes me feel good.
‘I don’t believe in starving yourself, and everyone deserves a treat, but obviously you can’t eat doughnuts every day and stay slim’.
When asked which form of exercise is most effective for her, she said: ‘Gymnastics. The bottom of my bum is my problem area. I still get a bit of cellulite, but I started doing gymnastics on Tumble and it’s made a huge difference.
‘Dancing is great for burning calories, too.’
Lucy may well get a lot more gymnastics practice as she’s reportedly enjoyed ‘a string of dates’ with Louis Smith after exchanging flirty banter with the hunky gymnast on the set of celebrity talent show Tumble.
The pair are said to have met while filming the BBC gymnastics show, which will not return after ending in September, and pals say the chemistry was evident long before they went on their first date.
‘There were lots of rumours about Louis and Lucy when he was judging Tumble and she was a contestant,’ a source told The Sun’s TV Biz. ‘It’s true they were flirting but nothing happened.’
Definite chemistry: Sources claim Lucy is dating Louis Smith. In November Louis posted the above picture, which he captioned 'Look who I found.. @lucymeck1 . She looks just as good in a dress as she does in a leotard #tumble'
Handy: Louis won bronze at the Olympic Games in London two years ago. He has since appeared on a string of celebrity talent shows, among them Strictly Come Dancing and Tumble
The pal claims Lucy initially ruled out the possibility of romance with the Olympic silver and bronze medalist, 25, because at 5ft 10in he is considerably shorter than the towering 6ft 2in she normally goes for. The source explained: ‘Louis got with someone straight after Tumble but they split and he bumped into Lucy. She must have forgotten about his size because sparks flew and they started dating.
'The way things are looking they could be together for a long time.'
Lucy’s reported dates with Louis come shortly after a short-lived romance with Welsh TV presenter Gethin Jones.
