Lauren Goodger heads to an appointment in figure-hugging grey Lycra

She may have been criticized for endorsing a 21-day juice cleanse for rapid weight loss; but Lauren Goodger seemed just fine on Wednesday as she headed out in Essex.

Dressed in casual garb, the former TOWIE star chatted to someone on the phone as she rushed to an appointment in her home town – having not long returned from the wellness retreat in Portugal.

The 31-year-old slipped into a very skimpy grey top and Lycra leggings, keeping warm with a black cardigan.

With the minus UK temperatures back up to a formidable febricity, Lauren carried, rather than wore, a black winter coat.

She donned mroon trainers to complete the look.

She wore her brunette locks straight around her features and a typical application of bronzer, mascara and rouge lipstick.

Lauren showed off her slim figure which she has recently attributed to a mix of healthy eating, juice dieting, exercise and liposuction.

Lauren recently hit back at criticism she faced after her 21-day juice cleanse in Portugal. 

She wrote on social media: ‘[The juice cleanse] was a tough challenge but how rewarding. You really see how strong you are mentally and physically!

‘A lot of criticism about juicing but it does a lot more than weight loss! I feel detoxed cleansed within like I couldn’t be healthier. 

‘I haven’t eaten meat for 22 days but I will of course go back to normality but with a few changes added to my diet!!’

Could it be? Lauren was once again wearing the diamond ring on her wedding finger, six months after her split from jailbird Joey Morrisson, sparking rumours they had reconciled

Determined: Lauren released fitness DVD in 2015  to mark her successful weight loss journey and inspire others. Since then, however, Lauren’s weight crept back up slightly

The reality star has long struggled with her weight, yo-yo-ing somewhat in the years she has been in the public eye.

But her latest efforts appear to have paid off. She cataloged her endeavors from the retreat in Portugal via Instagram.

She was seen relaxing in nothing but a toweled robe by the spa and in her luxurious room, enjoying her fast. 

She recently returned to her native Essex, a new woman.
