The former Love Islander, 30, posted a video explaining the secret behind her sudden 5st transformation.
In the clip the reality star revealed she had dropped more than five stone and six dress sizes in the space of just over a year.
And the blonde beauty added that she hadn’t undergone her radical transformation for vanity.
Instead, she explained, she had been forced to confront her ‘disordered eating’ after experiencing a health scare and had made sure to make changed so she could be the best mother to her daughter, Lucia.
But fans slammed the star for promoting her diet plan on Boxing Day, with many saying they already felt guilty for overindulging over the festive season and this made them feel worse.
In the video posted to her grid, Shaughna sat in her bedroom in a bright orange bikini and glam make-up.
In the other half of the screen was an older video of the blonde beauty from over a year ago in the same bikini from when she was at her heaviest, tipping the scales at 15 stone.
Addressing the camera, Shaughna said: ‘I can’t believe that was actually me in that video.
‘And this is me in the same iconic bikini, albeit with a few adjustments because it just didn’t fit me any more.
‘But now I’m back”
‘That video was taken over 14 months ago now and I’m so glad you can finally see the hard work that I’ve put in.’
The mother-of-one went on to say that she felt emotional seeing her former self and told her followers that she was going through a very difficult period and allowed he weight to get away from her.
‘I’ve got so much compassion for that person in that video because she was going through it,’ she continued.
‘She was new to motherhood, she was fighting trials and tribulations that everyone’s life throws at you and it creeps up on you
‘But I decided to take hold and take control of my life. I’ve now dropped over five stone and dropped over six dress sizes and I’m very happy with the end product.’
Shaugna also explained that she hadn’t lost the weight because of vanity but because she had been told she needed to make major lifestyle changes.
The TV star confessed that she had undergone a full body scan that had revealed dangerous levels of visceral fat around her organs.
She said: ‘Now I have to be honest, although I’m loving the way my clothes are looking and I’m loving the way I look in the mirror, this was not done for vanity.
‘I had quite a serious health scare where I had a scan and they told me I had loads of visceral fat around my organs and that can lead to so many nasty illnesses.
‘have a daughter now and it is my goal in life, to be the best role model and the best mum that I can be for her so this was all for her.
‘Albeit a little bit of my waistline was shed in the process.’
The media personality confessed to her 1.4million Instagram followers that it had taken her a long time to lose the pounds and throughout her diet, she was still being mercilessly trolled.
‘Although this has been over 14 months in the making it’s only been recently that people on my social media have noticed a change because even when I had dropped three stone I was still getting trolled and being called fat blah blah blah,’ she said.
‘It was exhausting but now I have so many of you asking how I’ve done it and some people have been getting a little bit angry and think I’ve been withholding the secret – I promise you I’m not.
Shaughna went on to add that she is now sharing her diet and lifestyle plan with her followers, saying: ‘I just needed to take my time and I’ve bought something for you that’s every single thing I done on this journey.
‘From the exercises to the nutrition plan, and I’m so glad I can give it to you how I intended.
‘This wasn’t going to be something I could just write off in an Instagram post, and voila, this is what I done.
‘No, I wanted to take my time because you all deserved it. So I really hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it.
‘Now listen, I haven’t lost over 5 stone and carried an eight pound, eight ounces baby and got away with no saggy skin.’
But the blonde bombshell revealed it hadn’t all been plain-sailing and was still struggling with sagging skin after giving birth to her little girl, 20 months.
She told the camera: ‘There is definitely some saggy skin here and I’m telling you, I’m wearing it with a badge of honour, I’ve grafted my bum off – quite literally and I deserve to show it off.
‘And I also do not care. I done this whole journey for no one but me and my baby so if my saggy skin offends you, sod off.
Shaughna finished off her video by encourgaing others to try her meal and exercise plan because it transformed her life and directed them to her bio where they could sign up.
‘I’m no dietitian or nutrition expert but I worked with the people who are.
‘It completely changed the game when it came to my eating. I actually realised I had really bad habits, terrible disordered eating I thought was a thing of the past and she completely 360’d it.
‘I was put on a “diet plan” and was struggling to finish my meals which, mental wise, was such a game-changer because I didn’t feel like I was restricting myself – because I wasn’t.
‘I was still allowed chocolate and ice cream and I was losing weight. This just blew my mind and I can’t weight for you guys to see it.
‘To find out more, click the link in my bio to Shaughna’s Shred It Plan and see what all of the hype is about.
‘And on a personal note, thankyou so much for sticking with me on this journey and no more questions for how I done it because you have got it all.
‘Love you! Mwah’.
She captioned the clip: ‘I won’t lie, I still can’t believe either of those people are me!
‘The real secret that no one told me before was you don’t need to exercise your ass off (thank god!) I have been doing workouts, but only after I’d done no exercise AT ALL for a month.
‘I was told I needed to reset my metabolism. That’s according to this amazing dietician I went to. So I just followed her eating plan for a month and only then started exercising again. The workouts I do are these fun combat routines that are only 12 minutes long. And everyone’s got 12 minutes in their day right?
‘SO after all the messaging from you, I’ve quickly put together all of this for you to follow. I’d really love you to get amazing results AND more importantly FEEL like you’re not fighting a daily battle with what you’re eating.
‘I’ve called it Shaughna’s Shred-It Plan and if you click the link in my bio or go to shreditplan.com you can follow the exact plan I’ve been doing. Or click the link in my bio, enjoy my huns!’
The reality star’s ‘Shred It Plan’ costs £79.99 or £19.99 in four instalments normally but the star is currently offering a discount.
Her glossy website includes several before and after shots of the star alongside links to exercise plans and dietitians.
But fans have blasted the star, complaining that she shouldn’t be selling diet plans on Boxing Day when many already feel guilty for eating too much over Christmas.
They flooded her comments with some even saying they were going to have to unfollow her because they found her content ‘triggering’.
They wrote: ‘I’ve always loved you but girl this is not it. On Boxing Day??’
While another follower said she was disappointed in the star, writing: ‘I don’t like that this isn’t free information… reach your dream weight and finally feel confident in yourself… at a cost, I didn’t think this would be your way of doing things so I’m disappointed’.
Another said: ‘Literally the day after Xmas day, when most people feel like c**p about what they have eaten’.
Some said they didn’t want to think about weight loss over Christmas but complimented the star on her transformation: ‘This is disappointing on Boxing Day. I don’t want to think about weight loss over Christmas. Jeez. However you lost the weight you look great but seriously’.
One fan wrote: ‘It’s an ad – she looks fantastic but it’s still an ad’.
While one unfollowed the star because of her video, commenting: ‘I love you, and I love this weight-loss for you — but I thought we were past influencers selling weight-loss plans to us on Boxing Day. I have to unfollow you babe because this content is triggering. All the best’.
