Kerry Katona has pledged to kick her tubby ways once and for all and head off to fat camp, according to Heat.

The troubled yoyo dieter seems determined to make this year an improvement after a disastrous 2008, peaking when News of the World published footage of her snorting cocaine at her home.

Following the incident, in which it was alleged that her two of her four children were home at the time, Kerry has had dealings with the police, social services and axed as the face of Iceland.

The termination of the lucrative Iceland contract left the star in financial ruin, and once again having to deny that she is a drug addict.

Now Kerry is desperate to turn her life around and get back into shape, and reckons that a military style boot camp in Kent is a sure fire solution.

A friend said: “She thinks her stay at boot camp will give her the motivation she needs.”

Last month it was reported that Kerry was seeking financial advice to open a Kebab shop.
