‘At that time I had already lost 45 kilos of the weight I had gained during pregnancy.’
Danielle Armstrong shared an update on her postpartum body after welcoming her one-year-old daughter Una last year on her Instagram on Tuesday.
The former TOWIE star, 36, posted a video to show her weight loss journey, which included a clip from a year ago of when she was three months postpartum, as well as a clip of herself now.
The video then cuts to a clip of Danielle now as the star shows off her svelte figure in a grey activewear set.
He captioned the clip: “It’s amazing to see what can be achieved in 12 months.”
‘Give your body time and trust the process.’
‘If you feel like you’re never going to get your body back, you will, you just need to do a few things daily.’
In the video’s title, the TV personality proceeded to give her followers some advice and explained what had worked for her over the past year.
She said: ‘For anyone who wants to be healthier and see RESULTS’
‘80% of our appearance depends on what we eat. We need to find a nutrition plan that allows us to have a calorie deficit that doesn’t make us feel like we’re on a diet.’
“DIETS DON’T WORK, they are a quick fix. You need to follow something that is realistic for your lifestyle and that you actually enjoy. I also stop eating after 8pm which makes a huge difference to the results.”

The video then cuts to a clip of Danielle in the present day and the star shows off her svelte figure in a grey tracksuit. She captioned the clip with: “It’s amazing to see what you can achieve in 12 months.”
‘Water is key to achieving results, my goal is to drink between 2.5 and 3 liters of water a day’
‘I like to track my steps, I’m quite competitive with myself on the Apple Watch and I close my circles ‘
‘My goal is to walk 10,000 steps a day at least. Trust me, even if you can’t go to the gym, taking steps is good.’
“Supplements have become a big part of my life now. I take a variety of pills throughout the day that help my body absorb the good nutrients from the foods and shakes I eat. I also take a preprobiotic to keep my gut working at its best and that helps with weight management, bloating and immune health.”
‘Finally, sleep and rest are just as important as all the above. Poor sleep can reduce metabolism, making it difficult to burn calories. That’s why it’s a good idea to go to bed at 10 p.m. and get up at 6 a.m.’
‘A few simple lifestyle changes can make a huge difference, not only in weight loss, but also in your overall health and well-being. You’ll feel better about yourself, age better, and become the best version of yourself.’
Last year, Danielle revealed she was expecting her second child when she shared a sweet black-and-white video of herself holding three pregnancy tests and admitting, “I wasn’t sure!”
She wrote: ‘Baby Edney No2….Oh we can’t wait to meet you.’
“We are absolutely thrilled that we will be adding another baby to our family in the summer of 2023. I know Orla will be the most amazing big sister.”
Danielle later revealed that she found it “very emotional” and “difficult” to get pregnant with her second baby.
Earlier this year, she shared her relief at no longer having to keep her pregnancy a secret, admitting she was “anxious” this time around.
Last year in January, Danielle revealed she was expecting her second child with husband Tommy Edney by sharing a sweet black-and-white video of herself holding three pregnancy tests.
She said: ‘I’ve felt a lot more anxious this pregnancy and all I want is for all the doctors and all the different scans and all the different tests they do to give me the all clear.’
“I don’t know what it is, but this time it was really difficult for me.”
She continued: ‘The news is finally out. I’m so relieved to be able to be myself, not wearing a baggy top. I’ve had a lot of messages over the last few weeks from people asking me ‘Are you pregnant?’ I think women have a feeling.
“But I’ve found it very difficult to contain myself and hide it from my friends and family. Even my mother!”
“My mother and I are very close, but it’s hard to keep it from her for a while.”
Danielle advised her followers not to ask if anyone was pregnant, saying: “But you know what I’m gonna say to everyone watching this, if you think or suspect someone is pregnant. Just a little tip: don’t ask them. Don’t even try to make the clues, keep it to yourself.”
And in July, she confirmed she had welcomed her second child by sharing a heartwarming post on Instagram, revealing she had given birth to a baby girl.
“Because I’ve been through it a lot in the last few weeks and it’s not a nice feeling. And being in that position was horrible because you feel like you’re lying, but obviously you’re not.”
“But I think the whole thing about pregnancy, trying, getting pregnant, is a very personal thing and you should always respect the person’s decision about whether they’re going to tell you or not.”
She concluded: “But the news is finally out. I don’t feel like I have to worry about hiding my identity and I don’t want it to seem like a secret.”
“I’m not really a private person, but we’re really happy. I can’t wait for summer. I feel like we’re going to have a lot of work to do.”
