RTE star Kathryn Thomas has revealed she lost a massive 10lb in a week – by heading off to Spain for a bootcamp.
The Voice of Ireland presenter was 11.5in smaller following the week of Army-style training that left her feeling “like an ‘aul wan’ getting out of bed”.
The Carlow host put herself through two-hour hikes up mountains, 20km hikes before breakfast and portions of food that had to be eaten with a teaspoon – even paying €1,000 for the privilege.

But Kathryn said she felt phenomenal afterwards – with her boyfriend Padraig McLoughlin noticing just how sexy she was.
She said: “I felt amazing when it stopped. My skin was bright and clear. My boyfriend Padraig picked me up at the airport in Dublin and immediately noticed the difference.
“My shorts were loose on me and I was pleased with the work I did on defining my arms — they are my favourite feature.
“I was glad it worked and I had a great sense of achievement.”

Now Kathryn believes that the bootcamp will help her cut out alcohol and other junk from her life.
“This might sound clichéd, but the group of 27 women went on a journey together and we’re still in touch,” she told the Sunday Times.
“I think we all took a lot from it. I learnt a significant amount about nutrition and discipline and I’ve now cut out, or cut down on, caffeine, alcohol and dairy.
“It was very intense, and it wouldn’t be for everyone, but I loved it.”
