She’s won a legion of fans for her honest demeanour and when Ricki-Lee Coulter recently took to social media to admit, “I’m not one of those girls who’s naturally thin and can eat whatever I want” she was yet again praised for her frankness.

And now, in the latest issue of Woman’s Day, on stands today, we unearth how the 29-year-old has shed a whopping 30-kilograms and kept it off for six years.

As the former Australian Idol star gears up to marry personal trainer Richard Harrison, she has vouched to be a “hot bride” but without sacrificing the things she loves or cutting out entire food groups.

Then and now! The singer shows off a fuller frame in 2004 but these days is noticeably slimmer.

“I plan my cheat meals and work hard to earn them and I savour every mouthful,” the singer, who hits the gym six days a week to ensure she can treat herself, reveals.

Ricki’s day on a plate shows a plethora of meals – from the more naughty delicacies like pancakes and pizza to healthy salads and snacks. For Ricki, it’s all about balance.

Work hard, play hard! The 29-year-old hits the gym six days a week so she can justify indulging in the odd treat.

And the results are easy to see with the Come And Get It hitmaker shrinking from a size 14 to a petite size 8.
