Lisa Riley reveals she’s going to do a METAL detector test LIVE on Loose Women to prove she doesn’t have a gastric band
The former Emmerdale star has been targeted by trolls after losing an incredible 11 stone
LISA Riley has revealed her plans to do a metal detector test LIVE on Loose Women to prove she doesn't had a gastric band.
The former Emmerdale star has lost an incredible 11 stone but says she still gets trolled by people who think she's lied about losing the pounds naturally.
Speaking exclusively to the Sun Online, Lisa said she's sick of the abuse she gets from nasty trolls online and wants to prove them wrong once and for all.
Lisa, who used to star in Emmerdale as Mandy Dingle, has gone from a size 28 to a size 12 and she expects to drop another dress size - after undergoing a second surgery to remove excess skin - by the time she turns 41 in July.
The TV star dropped the pounds by curbing her diet, giving up alcohol and lost a stone in one week after eating only 400 calories a day.
Speaking ahead of the launch of her new perfume, Change, Lisa said: "I think we live in this world where people are so f***ing mean.
“And because of all the trolls and the haters, the next thing I want to do is a live metal detector test on Loose Women to prove everyone wrong because they’re still saying I’ve had one.
"I'll have an internal x-ray, whatever to prove there's nothing in there because I'm so proud that I did it by myself."
Trolls previously targeted her saying she "looked like a cancer victim" leaving Lisa upset as she has lost both her grandfather and her mother to the disease.
Last October, Lisa passed a lie detector test after being questioned by the same man who oversees the tests on the Jeremy Kyle Show.
The 40-year-old will undergo her second skin removal surgery in two weeks and said she can't wait to "get on with her life".
She continued: "Before, I’d be on a girls holiday in Malta and they’d all have their bikinis on and the flat, flat stomach and I know the next time we go that’s gonna be me!
“That feeling is insane."
While the Manchester native admitted the surgery is painful, she can't wait to overhaul her wardrobe to show off her new perky bust.
She said: "After I did the reveal following my first surgery, I did think 'do I need the top doing?'
"But I have to think about the volume of skin on my back, my boobs are like two tongs and my bingo wings are horrendous.
"I can't wait to have my two new little apples - and no implants - they'll be all natural."
Inspired by Lisa's personal journey, her new perfume called Change will launch exclusively on Ideal World today at 4pm.
Speaking about her first scent, Lisa said: “I never thought in the Emmerdale days that I’d have my own perfume because of everything that’s happened to me.
"It's amazing, it's the cherry on top for me."
