Main character was fat and lonely rich child, who lost a lot of weight in Paris. Possibly Shirley Conrad or similar. Any ideas??

Was the character male or female? Age? (roughly...) ???

Shirley Conran even. She then went on to be a top model/fashion designer/ other fabulous career etc

Was coming back to say Scruples - I loved those Judith Krantz books back in the day. And there's a mini-series - I'm going to look for that.
