TLC- Katy Hopkins

[adrianna22]

Whose watching??

Yes I'm watching it wrapped well behind pillow as I get queasy at the operation stuff

I saw the bit where she was going through the court proceeding before and I thought there was no way she could of fallen on the child when she couldn't even move by herself!

Jesus Christ she already looks so different!

Really confused by it-

• how was she 8st 13 in the beginning? She looked exceptionally thin. I used to weigh the same. (Currently knocked up) and at 5 ft 6 was nowhere near that thin. The dr said she was underweight- at 8stone 13???

• how can anyone eat 6000 calories a day without puking from excess ?

• how did she put on 4 stone yet barely gain any boobs??

All on her tummy, looked pregnant.

I'm so glad she managed to get rid of weight. I looked at Mayra Rosales fb page and she has lost more weight since that documentary wrapped think I'm going to give the next program 'my big fat fetish a miss'

She's quite tall.

Ignore I'm watching f it I'm like this

It's just baffling haha

Anyone watching part 2 tonight?

I started a thread but didn't think anyone was watching

Weird how most of weight is on her tummy and face looks fat - tho from
Behind still looks if slim legs

Just watched it. What a farce. She had to eat over 6,000 calories a day to put weight on and lost it easily as she has a fast metabolism.

Predictably, this was all very simplistic and could be summarised as:

KH: "Fat people simply need to exercise more self control and exercise more".

Overweight interviewees: "You don't understand why I'm fat, how dare you say being my weight is unhealthy and anyway, it's easy for you to lose weight".

There was only lip service paid to the real issue, which is why some people overeat and don't do sufficient.

Whilst I agree that quickly gained weight is probably easier to lose than weight accumulated over years, I don't see any evidence that KH has an especially high metabolism. I read that her typical day's diet consists of bran flakes for breakfast, a tuna sandwich for lunch and a homemade meal such as curry or roast for dinner - no snacks. She also runs for an hour, three times a week. I'm sure most people would lose weight or maintain a low weight on such a regime.

I dont believe the weight gain. For someone her height being just under 12st is not huge. Also from what I've heard from those who know her get final with in was done after shed eaten a huge meal and drank nearly 2 litres of water. After dinner and water i can easily look pregnant and weight 9lb more.

I think she gained less than she made out and with her rare fast metabolism it wasn't hard to lose it. Let's see her get to 15stone and then lose it.

And how many times did she walk around breathing out! It's clear to see that she only really gained around her middle.

I missed the 2nd part - fell asleep, did she manage to lose it all again?

Yeah she managed to loose most of it, I think she kept half a stone/a stone because the machine said she was underweight due to her waist to hip ratio, body fat and weight. She got back in her size 10 jeans

lose*

Wonder how quickly she would of got back into her size 10's if she didn't have all the professional advice and hand holding.

Still think she was daft to do that to her body to try prove a point at least do if for the love of cake instead

The doctor said the tests showed she had a fast metabolism which is why she struggled with weight gain and lost it quickly.

She didn't have any help, she ran in the fields went spinning, no PT, gym memberships, fat camps etc.

Tbh from the meeting she held only 1 person went. You know what I'm fat because I eat to much, one of them protested she was healthy whilst another one said they needed help to become healthy but she took her at her word that she was healthy.

Tbh I agree with the fact that yes I need to eat less and move more I eat because there's nothing else to do and I'm just filling a gap of time. I look in the mirror and hated the way I like but would rather eat shit.

I agree with the fact that she is blunt and can be extremely rude but the woman who campaigns for fat people (can't remember the actual name) Isn't healthy and saying that she is I don't know why she thought Katie would be like "of course you're healthy"

She did go to the gym, it showed a clip of her at slimming class.

I will have to see if I can get it on catch up, but I reckon she would of had h elp/advice behind the scenes as she had some trainer there to help with fatting her up.

I don't hate the woman not even dislike I actually follow her on twitter when I can be arsed to go on and she can be very witty, just some of the crap she says makes me cringe which I think is mainly for panto effect.

Katie P used her boobs to make money, Katie H uses her gob.

oh that sounds wrong I should of said Words not gob

I didn't say gym she said no gym memberships. Out spinning classes are about £5 a weekly session where I am memberships are about £60 a month.

I have to agree Ignore, I do like her haha however the whole gob thing made me laugh lol

Finally caught up and watched (to my shame). I thought she came across as not quite as vile as I was expecting. She is a bit of a numpty though, to imagine that it's all so simple, and to ignore the psychological and emotional factors involved in weight gain / loss. Of course people have multitudinous reasons for being fat and finding it hard to lose weight and her experiment doesn't solve anything. Telling people they are fat because they are lazy and it's all their fault doesn't actually help them.

She was highly motivated to lose the weight and she still retained an extra 11 pounds, which kind of shows just how hard it is to lose weight, especially that last stone or 1/2 stone. I was a little that she squeezed herself back into her jeans even though she was 11 pounds heavier than the start. I need an extra notch on my belt if I gain 6 or 7 pounds, so 11 pounds I think would be at least one whole jeans size different.
