EMOTIONAL KATIE HOPKINS ON THIS MORNING: 'I HATE FAT PEOPLE FOR MAKING ME DO THIS'
5ft 7 Katie- who has made no secret of her intolerance of overweight people- has faced a backlash over her weight-gain project, with many branding her 'fattist' and 'shallow'.
She told Closer: "People say: 'You're lucky, you're skinny,' and I just don't think these excuses are cutting it any more. I think losing weight will be easy- I've missed exercise. It will take blood, sweat and tears- but rather that than sacrifice my pride for a doughnut."

Emily says: "It was hard to begin with. I struggled with the running and lifting weights and felt constantly out of breath. It got easier, though."
