Kerry Katona embarks on diet and fitness mission after health diagnosis

A determined Kerry Katona has declared "hell no!" as she embarks on a diet and fitness regime after being diagnosed with a health condition. The 42-year-old former Atomic Kitten singer asked "who's with me?" as she fights back.

Mother-of-five Kerry is having an overhaul after being diagnosed with Lipoedema, an abnormal build-up of fat in the legs and sometimes arms. The condition, which is more common in women, can be painful and affect daily life according to the NHS.

But Kerry was feeling positive as she shared a video on Instagram of herself working out at home and declared: "Today is the first day of the rest of your life people!! I absolutely love Monday mornings! New day, new week, clean slate, fresh beginning!"

She explained: "I was diagnosed lipidaemia last week which means swelling of the body and random fatty lumps. But f*** that s***!!!" and she added in her upbeat and inspiring message: "Gonna train the s*** out of my body!"

Kerry, who also has a broken foot, continued about her health: "If you look at the video you can see the swelling at the top of my stomach, cross my ribs, and also my shins and knees… their that big they’ve got their own bleeding personalities!!

"Oh also got a broken foot!! is that gonna stop me?????? Hell no!! I start @francisdiet today with the help of @carlafishwick who’s been a huge inspiration to me!!!!"

Kerry also took to Instagram Stories to share snaps of herself posing in a sports bra and knickers as she began her mission. "No turning back people!!!" she exclaimed. And she said she was "on a mission with cardio workouts."
