She’s said she wants to slim down to a tiny size six because she’s not happy with photographs of herself.
But perhaps The Only Way Is Essex star Maria Fowler hasn’t yet started her diet, as the 25-year-old was spotted yesterday indulging in a greasy meal at Burger King in Marbella.
Dressed in an Ann Summers monokini, Maria kept her sunglasses on as she enjoyed a Double Whopper burger and chips at the fast food outlet.

Maria’s meal came as she admitted to Closer magazine she is conscious of ‘looking big’ in photographs, despite being a size 8.
And Maria, who has posed naked for Breast Cancer Care’s Pink Fridays
campaign in the publication, has even taken up boxing in a bid to
lose a few pounds.
She said: ‘I see bits others wouldn’t
that I’d like to change! I see paparazzi pics of me in a bikini, and I
think I look too big – I hate it. I really want to be size 6.’

Maria, who is also planning to have an advanced laser liposuction
procedure to get rid of ‘a small
pocket of fat’ on her bottom, also spoke to Closer about her
mother Trudy’s battle with breast cancer.
The TOWIE star revealed Trudy, 56, told her she was suffering from the disease five years ago, leaving her ‘numb with shock’.
And Maria said while posing completely naked was ‘nerve-wracking’, she wanted to do it to raise awareness of breast cancer.

She explained: ‘My mum was diagnosed
with breast cancer in 2005. When she broke the news to me, I was numb. I
just thought, “Oh my God, no.”
‘It was grade three – which is really
aggressive – and she had to have chemotherapy, radiotherapy and a
mastectomy. She passed the five-year mark at Christmas – she was only
given a 70 per cent chance of living that long at first.’

Maria added one of the most difficult parts of seeing her mother go through such a battle was when she lost her hair.
She said: ‘When she had chemo, Mum
decided to cut off her hair before it fell out. I did it for her – but
she looked like a child. It was horrible.’
But Maria also revealed it was her
mother who first encouraged her to move from Derby to Essex to pursue
her glamour-modelling career.
She added: Mum told me to do it.
Seeing me follow my dreams helped her. We speak all the time, and she
comes to visit me loads too.’
Trudy also encouraged Maria to have her breast enlargement, knowing it was something she wanted to do.
Maria said: ‘My boob job was just
after Mum’s reconstruction. She told me to go for it – she said she’d
have done it years ago if she could have!’

Sarah B ull – is this all your journalistic life amounts to, pet?? Stories about TOWIE nobodies who are scoffing a burger? I commented last week about you gettin the rubbish stuff, was I wrong?? I’m cringing for you right now. But don’t worry, I’m only Scottish and I know your paper doesn’t like us much

I’d say pretty irresponsible reporting, but no doubt this was a press release from the TOWIE publicists.
Not satisfied with having no less than 10 female weight related articles this week, you are now using the perjorative term ‘chow’ to discuss a young girl eating a fattening meal and telling impressionable young girls that size 8 isn’t thin enough.
Would it be possible to have a diet/weight/she’s fat/she’s thin day free day tomorrow? I won’t hold my breath.
