Katie Hopkins - what you think Thin-Fat-Thin #Noexcuses

Oh please, the woman is an *kitten*.

It'a a publicity stunt which bears no resemblance to the reality of being overweight / obese and the reasons / emotions behind it.

I know a lot of people are hoping she will fail but I think she will probably lose it all again easily, simply because for her it is simply calories in versus calories out. She said herself that she hated eating all that food and had to force herself to do so. So going back to what is her normal eating habits and exercise / activity will be easy for her.

No doubt she be even more obnoxious and vile than she is now as she will have "proved her point".

It's not helpful at all.

Exactly what I was thinking, for a lot of people its just as much a mental thing as the physical act of eating too much rubbish food. She is an awful person that has been made 'famous' by being obnoxious and insulting everyone and anyone. I wish everyone would just ignore so she goes away.

Bump. Watching this space.

She maintains she won't be going to any posh gym or having a dedicated trainer, so let's see if that's true!
She was a moron when she was on The Apprentice... nothing much has changed

You know, I don't want some awful slag insulting me for being fat and pretending it's somehow "motivational".

I spent entirely too much time insulting myself for being morbidly obese.

I don't need some fame mongering cow to do the same, especially after I finally cleaned up the nonsense in my brain.

There are entirely too many people out there who are dealing with mental afflictions along with being overweight, and they don't need any more negativity.

More often than not, that kind of "tough love" or "motivation" achieves nothing.

It sends some people right back to the kitchen, and nothing is achieved.

I'm not advocating treating people with kid gloves or coddling them.

I am, however, advocating not treating them like garbage.

People should be encouraged to deal with the mental issues that accompany their issues with food (if any are present).

People should be encouraged to be checked for underlying medical issues and have them treated, if applicable.

Browbeating people and being generally unpleasant towards them because they're fat is just vile.

Especially when whatever they're telling themselves is most likely 10 times worse than anything she could say.

People need support, encouragement, education and non-insulting honesty.

The rest is up to them.

I'm praying the weight takes 10 times as long to come off as it did to go on. Silly cow.

She has no clue.

Yeh with you on this one :devil:

I too think this is a publicity stunt to prove herself 'right' yet again and she should just go and boil her head!!! :explode:

That has to be one of the best phrases I've heard!

This is all coming from a woman who ruined her professional career by getting caught shagging some guy in a field (and being a general c***), so she then decided to become a 'celebrity' who only gets attention by being sensationalist and insulting people into a frenzy.

It's desperation for attention.

would never say personally bad thing as other have, as doesn't that make you the same as her?

In the whole time she's forced herself into the public eye she's been nothing but awful and by making public her ridiculous thoughts and opinions she leaves herself wide open to criticism.

I personally don't think less of people because of what they name their children or how much weight they carry. So, no, saying bad things about her doesn't make me the same as her.

So this woman is purposely gaining weight just so she can lose it? And that is supposed to show the world, what? That because she can do it, that means there is no excuse for anyone to be fat?
I find this quite upsetting. I will be the first to admit that it is my own fault for being obese, and only I can do something to change that. I'm not going to sit here and blame this and that on my weight gain, it's all me.
But the mental and emotional aspect of weight gain/loss is not something that should be ignored or brushed aside. It's HARD. I'm not saying it's impossible to overcome the mental and emotional battle, clearly many people have. But I think it's something that should be acknowledged. For many people, it goes far beyond just putting down the fork.
