Former EastEnders actress Lorraine Stanley has shown off her staggering weight loss in a series of new snaps, where she has transformed her look.
The 48-year-old, best known for her portrayal of Karen Taylor in the BBC soap, which she starred in from 2017 to 2024, recently flaunted an impressive five-stone weight loss.
Taking to social media, Stanley sported a very slim physique as she donned a flower-print top and trousers during an event.
Her small waist was evident as she held a dancing pose and wrote: "5 months sober & still had a good night dancing! #Sobriety."

The Instagram Story continued: "@Bingobangouk @thegaietysouthsea thanks for having us."
Stanley left EastEnders in 2023 after being written out of the show as part of a cast shake-up on the soap. However, she reprised the role several times throughout 2024.
Stanley is understood to have achieved the weight loss without modern jabs such as Ozempic or Mounjaro, with The Sun reporting the actress opted for a gastric sleeve operation instead.
Stanley has been sharing glimpses of her new figure earlier in recent months. Earlier in May, she shared some photos celebrating her sister's birthday.

Standing next to her sister in the snaps, she sported a vest and maxi skirt. Next to the picture, she penned: "Happy Birthday to my beautiful sister Karen. Love you millions."
Last May, she penned on social media: "What a difference a year makes. Five stone down, feeling good, clean living, healthy choices, new me, healthy mummy."
Stanley has revealed since her soap exit that she has struggled to find new acting gigs, sharing candid updates on social media.
In one post, the actress explained she had created a new set-up for self-taped auditions, thanking her former EastEnders co-star Zack Morris for his help.
"Self tape setup in the loft, I'm so not technical but I'm proud I've managed to set it up all by myself with advice on equipment by @_zack_morris," she wrote.
The post continued: "Just finished one and it's hard work... I'll get there. [It's] a struggle watching yourself back & not being highly critical on yourself... just let it go and send it #SENT."
Many of her recent posts have prompted fans to note how healthy she is looking, with several taking to the comment section of her photos.
"Lorraine, you look fabulous," one shared under a photo, while another remarked: "She looks amazing."
