Seven months after sporting dangerously thin limbs, Nicola McLean has been showing off a healthier figure in Marbella after having put on around a stone in recent months.
A friend tells Now: ‘Nic's had a tough time but she's back in amazing shape and we're all very proud of her.'
Nicola, 27, admitted starving herself after giving birth to son Striker in March 2010.
She lost 6st in eight months to get down to just 7st 9lb and a tiny size 6.
‘I don't eat normally,' she said at the time. ‘I won't eat every day.
'I know it's wrong but I don't want the numbers on the scales to go up.
'I've lost too much weight. My boobs look horrendous and you can see my ribs - I look like a little girl.'
Nic made a change when loved ones begged her to regain her curves.
Footballer hubby Tom Williams even promised her the Marbella break if she gained 5lb.
