Yawn...

Gogglebox babe Scarlett Moffatt – AKA one of our favourite people on the telly – recently decided to overhaul her lifestyle and set herself a weight loss goal.

After combining regular exercise with a healthy diet, Scarlett has revealed that she’s now lost a staggering two stone, taking her from a size 16 to a 10.

You can read all about her game-changing weight loss journey right here.

Dedicated fans of Scarlett know that behind her perky personality, she has suffered extensively as a result of online bullies – that mostly target her weight.

Scarlett previously told the Belfast Telegraph: "People have said, ‘You’re that fat you should just go and die.'

“There are odd ones, mostly men, who criticise me about my weight and size and say I’m ugly. I’d be lying if I said it didn’t hurt sometimes."

And despite the old saying ‘if you haven’t got anything nice to say, don’t say it at all’ – online trolls are now body shaming Scarlett for being 'too skinny’.

Scarlett recently posted a flawless selfie of her new hair ‘do:

She captioned the snap: "Bye bye summer mermaid hair, hello shiny natural hair!"

And despite her fans flocking to tell her how great she looked, some were not so kind.

One commented: “Frighteningly thin!! You was perfect just the way you was.”

“Your looking very thin Scarlett! X”, wrote another.

Another added: “Be careful about your weight my lovely keep well xx”

One even accussed her of ‘morphing’ into another reality star: “Scarlett you are morphing into Charlotte Crosby you looked so much better previously.”

However, one fan was quick to jump to Scarlett's defence, writing: "You look amazing @scarlett_moffatt .. people are quick enough to tell people they are loosing to much weight, but don't give enough of a fuck to let you know when you are putting it on! Jealousy is an ugly thing. You do you."

Touché.

We think Scarlett looks bloody amazing, happy and comfortable in her own skin.
