Lucy Mecklenburgh is on vacation in Barbados

Lucy Mecklenburgh is on vacation in Barbados, and she's making sure to post some stunning photos on Instagram. She's currently spending time at the local beaches and in the sun. Mecklenburgh shared a new set of photos on her page this week. In it, she wore a light blue bathing suit and a cover-up. She captioned the post, "Barbados."

Mecklenburgh shared some of her wellness secrets and tips in an interview with Express. She says that she believes in making little changes to her routine. "Change one thing at a time, don't overwhelm yourself," she advises. "For me, it wasn't a massive weight loss journey but I did lose a bit of weight and toned up and felt fitter and healthier as a result."

In order to help herself get healthier, Mecklenburgh worked with trainer Cecilia Harris. She tells Express that Harris helped her with her diet. "Cecilia told me to eat breakfast, so that was a huge part for me," she says. "That little change made such a difference to my life. I had an omelette every morning and that automatically stopped my tea and biscuits at 11 o'clock.

Mecklenburgh makes sure to eat healthy, but she also still indulges. She tells Your Healthy Living that she uses the 80/20 rule. "When it comes to my own diet, I try to live by the 80:20 rule. So, from Monday to Friday I'm quite strict. I don't have any fast food or processed food. I'll have a veggie omelette for breakfast, for lunch I might have a chicken salad and maybe I'll have a Thai green curry for dinner. I make everything from scratch and I make sure that I have plenty of vegetables. At the weekend I'm very chilled out. I love food and I think it's there to be enjoyed. If I fancy a pizza or a bowl of pasta then I'll have it. That's what works for me – being strict during the week and a bit more relaxed at the weekend.

Mecklenburgh likes to cook healthy meals. She tells Your Healthy Living that she cooks a lot of dairy-free meals. "I do enjoy cooking but I have around a 30-minute limit and then I get bored," she says. "One of my favourite recipes to make is a dairy-free chicken and mushroom pie. I can't really have too much milk, and I always used to find that a lot of recipes always had cream in. So I invented a recipe with coconut milk and filo pastry, and it's absolutely amazing served with lots of green veg."

Mecklenburgh tells Your Healthy Living that she does a variety of things to stay in shape. "I tend to work out around five times a week and I'll do anything from 20 minutes to an hour. It's usually HIIT-based training, with a bit of weight training, Pilates and barre. I would love to enjoy yoga but me and yoga have a bit of a love–hate relationship. I'm not very good at relaxing – it's one of my weaknesses. I find that a lot of people either love Pilates or yoga and I'm very much more a fan of Pilates."

Former Towie star Lucy Mecklenburgh has been showing off her baby bump while on holiday at an Abu Dhabi waterpark

The 30-year-old is currently on holiday with her fiancé Ryan Thomas and their son Roman.

Just last month the pair revealed that they were expecting their second baby together as Lucy posted: "Here we go again."

Lucy Mecklenburgh showed off her growing baby bump in a chic blue bikini while posing alongside her eldest. The family is staying at the St Regis Hotel on Saadiyat Island as they enjoy the winter sun.

They also paid a visit to the Emirates Park zoo where they fed giraffes.

Gushing about the break, Rylan said traveling long distance with a toddler had been fine until Lucy made parenting fail in the hotel room.

The former Jason Grimshaw actor said his wife-to-be accidentally turned on every light in their suite saying: "Roman started screaming!"

Lucy gave birth to Roman, who is now 19 months old, last year. She recently opened up about terrifying health care that saw her son end up in hospital. The mum found her baby boy blue in her cot back in September.

Little Roman was taken to Basildon Hospital near their Essex home and was then transferred to London's St Mary’s Hospital where he was then put on a ventilator. They found that the illness was viral and he is now doing well but has to now use an inhaler twice a day to help his breathing.

As well as caring for son Roman and gearing up for baby number two, Lucy and Roman have also been in talks surrounding their upcoming wedding.

The pair have decided to put the big day on hold to have both their children with them. A source told a magazine: "Lucy isn't too concerned about wedding plans but would like to get her figure back after her second child is born."

They went on to say that a summer 2022 wedding is off the cards because Lucy would like to wait until her children can be more involved in the wedding.

They added: "Lucy is really glad the babies will be close in age and loves that if she has a girl she'll have an older brother in Roman to watch over her."
