Katie Hopkins may have transformed herself from a size 8 to a size 16, but that hasn't changed her belief that overweight people - or 'fatties', as she calls them on Twitter - are just lazy people who need to take responsibility for themselves.

KATIE HOPKINS REVEALS WEIGHT GAIN STRUGGLES

Katie, who purposefully piled on 3st 7lbs pounds for new TV show Katie Hopkins: Journey to Fat and Back, is still being accused of fat shaming on Twitter.

She recently told one social media user: "Have an amazing day. And lay off the bacon butties, chubster."

However it is not just her comments which have upset people; it is the aim of her TV show, which will see Katie - who has ballooned from 8st 8lb to 12st - 'prove' to viewers that they have "no excuses" to be overweight.

Katie has, as a result, been targeted by those who say they're happy being overweight, as well as those whose weight is the result of a number of medical conditions.

KATIE HOPKINS DOES THE ALS ICE BUCKET CHALLENGE

Using the hashtag #jogonKatieHopkins, the social media movement has seen people hitting back at Katie's comments, branding her "disgusting" and "ignorant".

The movement seems to be growing, with more and more people using the hashtag as opposed to Katie's approved #Noexcuses publicity push.

KATIE HOPKINS: "IF YOUR HUSBAND CHEATS, YOU HAVE YOURSELF TO BLAME- LOSE WEIGHT!"

And it seems as if some of the comments have affected Katie, who has given herself three months to get back to where she was, with no personal trainer, gym or nutritionist.

She tweeted: "I'm scared that I won't lose the weight."
