Gemma Collins wants to lose another three stone using controversial injections

Gemma Collins has declared she wants to lose another “two or three stone” using the controversial Skinny Jab injections.

The reality TV star, 39, has already lost around three stone, but she’s adamant she wants to continue her body transformation journey.

Lockdown was a blip for Gemma as she put on around four pounds, but she has since taken it off and lost around three stone altogether.

She credits Skinny Jabs – injections of an appetite-supressing drug – with helping her shed the weight.

The GC told The Sun Online : “I’ve lost about three stone in weight.”

“It’s been a great amount of weight to lose but I’ve still got a bit of a way to go if I’m being honest.

“I still want to lose another two or three stone… I use the pen every week and it just really curbs your appetite.

“It’s well needed for me after the lockdown. Basically, since the restaurants have been open again, I’ve been back on them.”

Skinny Jabs are legal as the drug used in them – liraglutide – was approved for medical use in Europe back in 2009.

The usage comes with a warning that they should only be used by those who have a BMI of over 30 or between 25-30 and if they have another weight-related condition such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure or sleep apnoea.

Experts have recommended the injections are taken on doctor’s orders.

Gemma revealed she came off the injections earlier this year, but returned to them after lockdown and is hoping to continue her weight loss ahead of the temptations of Christmas.
