FabSwingers.com forum: Fat Katie Hopkins

By (user no longer on site) OP
over a year ago

... has gained more than 3 stone for a tv programme... She has piled on the pounds as an experiment 'to prove that it is easy to lose weight' and that 'too many excuses are made for people being overweight'...

She says, "Spoon-feeding a nation excuses when we are so disastrously overweight is not what we need.

"We are the fattest nation in Europe and we need to digest the cold, hard truth that we are like this because we eat too much and move too little.

"My project was to prove that all the excuses for being fat are nonsense — and it is proving that."

Her next task is to lose the weight again....

It will be interesting to see how she does. Some of it is valid I guess but its the same for many things people are good at coming up with excuses.

How is she going about losing the weight?

I think its a pointless exercise,she won't be proved wrong so she'll lose the weight even if she starves herself to do it

There was a similar programme about a fitness model (a guy) doubled his body weight and then lost it all to get back to his original weight and size all in a year

I was just about to post something similar.

She will also have trainers and dieticians working with her.

She is bloody-minded enough to never want to be proved wrong about anything so we won't ever know exactly how she achieved the weight loss and how much it cost.

I wonder if she'll go as far as getting some worms in?

Doesn't she just need to revert back to her old diet to lose the weight, albeit slowly?

I imagine she gained the weight by overeating and exercising less, which is not her normal regime. Some people have weight issues because a bad diet and a lack of exercise is what they've done all their lives. So it isn't representative at all!

Plus, most people aren't craving continued TV exposure and a bucket of cash as a reward for achieving it.

I read about it a while ago that said she was going to do it. I'm quite surprised she's done it actually, thought it was all hot air. I think it will be at least another 3 months till it's on as she has to lose it now..?

Obesity and people being over weight is looked upon by the simple minded such as this attention seeker in such a facile dumb way, which ignores the huge complexity behind it for many people. She should keep the 3 stones for a few years and then lose it. Short term weight increases will not deliver the same metabolic changes that those who have very long term excess weight have. She will also be devoid of any psychological contributory factor, though I do think she has some serious defects overall. She needs to be starved of publicity, I dont see that she is good for our society - more like vermin ravaging what she can for her greedy ego.

All this will prove is that people who have no issues relating to food can put on and lose weight.

I will say it till I am blue in the face but, it is as unnatural to eat yourself to 40 stone as it is to starve yourself to 4 yet only the dangerously underweight have a recognised mental health condition.

Why is it such a leap of comprehension that some overweight people have developed unhealthy food associations?

Considering that a high proportion of people with weight issues have psychological problems that need to be dealt with, as well as the metabolic effects of years of yo-yo dieting and unhealthy diets and lifestyles, this isn't a valid test AT ALL.

It sounds like just another stick to beat fat people with.

"I did it and, even though my circumstances aren't remotely similar to yours, there's no reason you can't. Ergo, you're just greedy and lazy"

Pointless and completely unhelpful.

Agreed, on all counts.

It would be just as useful to prove someone without a broken leg can walk and use it to tell people with broken legs that they should be able to and should stop making excuses.

That's simple: we're seen as greedy and the undeserving of sympathy. Plus, we gained our weight (mostly) in a pleasurable way.

I know why I am fat and I know it's in my head. However, I am also now happier and more confident about my body than I ever was as a size 8, 10 or 12. I am going to try and lose some weight because I want to keep wearing the wonderful clothes I already own.

It will prove she can put on and loose 3 stone too along with making a lot of people come up with convoluted reasons some can't loose weight. Its a bit pointless though very few will watch.

I know this sounds nasty but I hope she keeps the weight, she is a great example of why this country is going down the pan, talentless attention seeker.

As for putting on weight, when I was young I eat pasties, cream cakes, tea with three sugars all day I put on nothing. Now I eat none of these things, cycle around 150 miles a week, yet 3 stone overweight, according to my doctor.

Who knows you might sleep snack. The facts are though if you eat more calories than you burn off you put on weight there is nothing complicated about that.

She should have to maintain it for at least a year. Although she did seem to have some comments that she 'now has some empathy for overweight people'. Even if it's just one ounce of empathy I think that's a good thing as she didn't have it before!

I know she will have gym trainers and goodness knows what else to help her. But I do give her credit for at least giving it a go and gaining the weight. Lots of people wouldn't.

From someone who has suffered with their weight all their life unless you have a medical condition you can loose weight, if you have phycological issues about food go and see a councillor if need be.

I know what its like to have serious issues with eating and will always have those issues but if you seriously want to loose weight you will.

She's so shallow she'll be snorting , liposuction, swallowing amphetamines to shed the weight if she has to. I'll give her this she's determined.

i agree, i have always had a very unhealthy relationship with food, the only way i can loose weight is by not eating, i have lost 7 and a half stone this year but if i told people how i think a lot would ne shocked, normal diets do not work for me so i resort to extreme measures

not everyone is the same all because she can loose weight by eating 3 meals a day that does not mean everyone can

My point is that anyone who goes to the trouble to do this to be on TV, really hasn't got any other talent worth exploiting. She doing it to poke fun at people she feels superior to and of course money.

Well that's conjecture but insinuating she will be taking drugs is slanderous and a probably well off the mark. I don't particularly like her but others must if they are putting a show up. I don't know her so have no idea if she feels superior or what talent she has like you obviously.

I do think that some, and I stress "some" people add weight out of shear love of food so they eat too much.

I know someone like that, they say they just love food. It's a bit like someone smoking when they know it's not good for them.

I wouldn't call it an addiction though, because it doesn't have an element of dependency to it, i.e. would give them a high, they just enjoy food!

I watched the Apprentice she was in and snippets on youtube, read about her before she was famous and formed my opinion on that. Apart from the Appentice I can't really listen her, yet I watch Clarkson because he I find him more of a pantomime villain.

Basically she trades on shock value and just being nasty, I know I'm being nasty about her but I think she deserves it. Unless she's an amazing actress.

Food is a funny thing. Unlike smoking we can't give it up completely - we require calories to live.

Some see food just as essential fuel but for most people food is imbued with pleasure, rituals of one sort or another and memories. Sharing food with others denotes a bonding, however short. Preparing food for someone offers a certain sense of love. My father never says he loves me but if he wants me to know he does he fries me plantain.

It is basic animal instinct to eat food while its available for example in the summer in preparation for winter.

Only since the founding of the unions, the welfare state that the working class were guaranteed not to starve.

It won't even acknowledge people can have problems losing weight. The entire thing seems to be being billed as "if I can do it, you should be able to too" to disprove that it's difficult and show anyone struggling is just lazy, greedy and weak-willed.

I hope I'm wrong, but so far that's how it's looking.

I agree food is more than just fuel, but if you take France it has a much lower incidence of obesity than the UK and yet nowhere is food more celebrated, ritualised, family oriented and enjoyed.

The French consumer, in general, have no more disposal income than the UK, food is certainly not cheaper. Are we lazier than them? can't see any evidence for that. So why the gulf?

Clearly the problem of UK obesity levels are complicated and probably culturally deep seated.

Can't see how this 'experiment' is going to contribute to the issue in any meaningful way.

"All this will prove is that people who have no issues relating to food can put on and lose weight.

Why is it such a leap of comprehension that some overweight people have developed unhealthy food associations? "

Good grief! You are the only other person I've heard say this, the other one being me.

Nobody chooses to be fat as nobody chooses to be thin.

The standard 'heathy eating' message isn't helping either. It's well documented here that I've lost eight stones and kept it off but I still have my demons, they are just a little easier to fight these days but fight I still do.

Don't be so silly of course people choose to be fat or thin.

You choose the actions that have the outcome.

It's like saying "no one chooses to be caught speeding", correct but they choose to speed and so choose to take the consequences.

Just like choosing to eat a massive calorie surplus is choosing the consequence of getting fat.

Whilst Hopkins is an odious personality I am glad the Police took no notice of the complaint as it was a ridiculous thing to do. she herself should have been done for wasting police time over such a trivial comment.

It's simple really. She will eat less pies/chocolate/pizz/burgers/chips etc.

And do more exercise moving.

There IS NO SECRET to loosing weight.

I haven't seen the clip yet, going to wait and watch it in context.

She can indeed be obnoxious but I find her a refreshing change from the politically correct Stepford Wives people that seem to populate the world these days. She gets people talking and challenges things that other people daren't for fear of being slated.

I don't agree with everything she says but

Thing is that most overweight people don't go from a size 10 to obese In a matter of weeks/months. It's creeps on slowly over years and then bad eating habits are so entrenched in people's lives it is difficult to stop, just like smokers, alcoholics etc. she said in an inter_iew that she's a very active person who normally eats not a great deal and so she found it very hard to eat all the crap she was told and they basically told her to sit in her kitchen and just eat and drink sugary drinks all day as the weight wasn't going on fast enough.

So for her once the slimming back down phase started after only a few months of her hating every minute of what she'd been doing she just went back to her normal eating and exercise and it would of came off fairly easy.

I've not seen the documentary but at least she's generated a good topic debate. Obesity is a huge killer, cost to the nhs and often hurts those close to the person due to their health drawbacks.

Any eating disorder is terrible, I've seen people morbidly obese and with fairly advanced anorexia, both are terrible and don't have overnight solutions. But there are people out there worse than Katie Hopkins for sure, and she's still getting attention - which she wants. Public attention often loves to go towards things like this.

She has highlighted the important issue that whilst you may be healthy now and happy in yourself long term it will cause issues that will be detrimental to your health and cause strain on an already overburdened NHS. Again this argument can be used for smokers drinkers etc.

Unfortunately they didn't stop making cigarettes to stop people smoking, and they haven't stopped producing alcohol to stop people being alcoholics and they wont stop the fast food industry from producing fast food, its all related to how we live these days, people have forgotten how to cook, we can now easily afford food that was considered a luxury years ago and instead of eating it once a week people are eating it every day.

It`s a vicious circle and some people can get off it and some cant.

I agree with what you are saying. I'm happy with myself but I also understand the impact it has being overweight through my late nan and my dad. I want children and weight can have an impact on that. What I don't need though is for it to be shoved down my throat. I know in the new year I will make minor changes in my lifestyle and loose a bit of wobble nothing drastic as I have done previously and became ill through it. If I can reduce my chances of getting diabetes which runs in my family then that will be a step worth taking

OK as a fatty I'm going to say you can be too fat, now where all fat for various reasons but we know ourselves whether its through gorging ourselves on fast food or not.

There are a lot of overweight people that are physically healthy me being one.

I watched the autopsy on Elvis last night. Now we all remembered how bloated he looked, he actually weighed 15 1/2 stone and was 5ft 11 now I don't class that as overweight but the bloatedness was caused by all the shit he ate, the actual damage he did to his organs was amazing.

I didn't see the Katie Hopkins documentary but I saw a picture and she just looked bloated, she wasn't that big about 12 stone I think she went up to but again the bloatedness was caused by the fact that she had lived on nothing but fast food. I don't know if it was covered but would of been Interesting to see what damage it had done her body.

Theres two kinds of fat healthy fat and why should anyone feel pressured to loose weight if there healthy and unhealthy fat and that is the time to do something about it.

I was extremely unhealthy when I was at my largest and it took a long time to do something about it but the shear joy when they tell you your no longer diabetic and don't have high cholesterol is worth all the effort of losing a bit of weight.

That's ridiculous. Its comparable to someone going out and getting intoxicated every night for a week, and the quitting, suggesting its so easy for alcoholics to give up. People have different metabolism's. I know people that eat badly and way too much, who are thin as a rail, and others who eat half what I eat and have weight issues. The woman is a moron.

If you read beyond the sniping and crass way she puts it across , she actually talks sense.

Children and adults are who are overweight need to be eating healthily and getting some exercise to lose weight.....as I like my food and overweight I will be the first to admit I need to do these things to lose weight.

Yes, some people may be on some medications that don't help with weight, but does that just mean they have to be even stricter to keep the weight from going on.

Sometimes though it is the way things are said rather than what is being said that is the problem, and lets face it as she craves attention she will make the news by whatever means.

I don't think her experiment in the timescale given proves anything though, normally people put on weight over a period of time and by eating things they enjoy, on reading what she has said, she didn't enjoy the foods she had to eat so it has to be easier to give them up again.

The woman is an annoying arse, who lives in her own perfect little world. Loved it when she was talking about children's names, and how certain names ring alarm bells, and she would steer her kids away from such children. Children with names like geographical places. Her child is named India, apparently, or maybe she spells it "Indya". She's an arse.

I have felt the healthiest and money energetic since I lost my weight since September. I had 2 days of eating/drinking over Xmas and the day after Boxing Day I woke up feeling like shit!!! Did me a favour though as the leftovers got thrown away and I was back on my regime Saturday morning first thing.. And that's not even from eating a huge amount.

Exactly this.

It's a bullshit experiment, she has a fast metabolism and by her own admission she's desperate to be slim. I think she gained an insight into how bigger people feel. And I give her a massive thumbs up for that. She risked her health to give it a go. If she was 30st it would have been better though.

In fact I think many people would benefit from being 30st for a week! They need some empathy.

"Remember folks this is the woman who happily tweeted that and extremely fat child asked her a question and her response to the child was to say she didn't explain things to fat children.

This is the woman who criticised parents for naming their children after place names - she called her own daughter India.

This is the woman who sits in moral judgement of others but was papped shagging a married man on a public footpath.

Not sure what your point is.

That possibly people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones

If that was true, no-one would ever speak. Everyone lives in a glass house. No-one is perfect.

No she says she wasn't going to have any of those things but as she was very slim and had a very active lifestyle before and stopped doing anything and ate insane amounts of junk and fizzy drinks to gain the weight just going back to her lifestyle would be enough for it to come off I expect

No my point was why worry about the disgusting attitudes of this appalling woman. She's certainly no one to admire. What makes her differ from many is that she genuinely believes she is the better person and the 'voice' of 'reasonable' people.

I don't know why people take what she says so seriously, I wouldn't want to meet her that's for sure but I do agree with some things she has said in the past, I don't know her that well and not that interested in her but some of her comments make me laugh, she doesn't give a shit what anyone thinks and people who hate her so much, do they realy know her, what she is really like.

I don't think she believes half of what she says, but she knows that coming out with what she does gets her attention so she carries on.

It's words that can have a devastating effect on some. While we need to be educated on certain things I think there is a more empathic way of spreading the word as such.

While you and possibly a million other people that can take it on the chin there are some delicate flowers amongst our society. I couldn't give a shit what she says personally I do think she could have a better approach in what she says but I do think she does it to have a reaction and she is doing a good job gaining the reaction...it doesn't always mean that was she says is right!

She's a vile excuse for a person and I won't pay a jot of attention to anything she says.

She's always playing the same few soundbites over and over anyway. You don't need to listen to know what vicious bile she's spouting.

"If you read beyond the sniping and crass way she puts it across , she actually talks sense.

Yes, some people may be on some medications that don't help with weight, but does that just mean they have to be even stricter to keep the weight from going on.

Sometimes though it is the way things are said rather than what is being said that is the problem, and lets face it as she craves attention she will make the news by whatever means.

Exactly this.

In fact I think many people would benefit from being 30st for a week! They need some empathy."

Having a fast metabolism when you slim, is a myth. In fact the larger you are the faster your metabolism will be because it has to work harder to pump the blood around.

"She's a vile media whore. She has nothing of value to teach us which we don't already know. All she is doing is trying to prove her venomous and judgemental opinions right.

Her little experiment will contribute nothing to what is scientifically understood currently about the cause and effect of obesity.

The only results it will show is how foul she is and will make those suffering from obesity feel even worse.

Also give the torygraph and Daily Moan something to knock peeps with too.

I started to read about it on mail online but got bored with it, heard it all before though she has got a point about fat people making excuses, that we eat too much of the wrong things.

however as much as I admire her and anyone else for staying slim, we are all different and its not so easy for some as it is others otherwise nobody would be overweight, its easy losing weight but not always so easy to keep it off.

I haven't read all of this so I don't know if it's already been said but this woman is only able to continue with her activities because she creates revenue for herself and the people who publish her. The answer is simple, stop reading, watching and reacting and like a spoiled child having a tantrum she will disappear. Unless you think she is serving a purpose in polarising opinion or making us examine our own opinions.

"All this will prove is that people who have no issues relating to food can put on and lose weight.

Why is it such a leap of comprehension that some overweight people have developed unhealthy food associations?

Good grief! You are the only other person I've heard say this, the other one being me.

Nobody chooses to be fat as nobody chooses to be thin.

That whole crap about "when I get to my goal weight, no more diets for me!" bullshit winds me up. It never ends. It's not a flash of blinding light and all weight problems are solved.

"
Perhaps to Many mac donald shops, burger kings, easy access especially on the high Street you tried to take them away There would be a revolution look at the yanks they love their french fries And rump steak who does,nt all bad for Yer..

if all in moderation its not And thats just it in moderation plenty of other things to try in between if You can,t mix yer meals up (BEFORE COMSUMPTION

) as in lighter meals Then thats where the Issues lie within Yourself luckily I have never had that Problem but I would still like to lay Off more things than I do but as Someone said earlier its a very hard Thing to do lifestyle changes basically.

being short of money is a good way to lose weight because you cant afford to buy food and you have to walk everywhere.

Theres two kinds of fat healthy fat and why should anyone feel pressured to loose weight if there healthy and unhealthy fat and that is the time to do something about it.

Type 2 diabetes can be if it's linked to obesity.

Type 1 is a different matter. My cousin was only in her 20s and was very slender. But she had undiagnosed type 1 - which killed her. She was not long married and was expecting her first child.

type 2 yes you can get rid of it via a good diet, my sugars now average 5.2 and I'm at no more risk of getting it later in life than anyone else
