A stone in a WEEK! Geordie Shore’s Sophie Kasaei sheds 14lbs in 7 days
From cosmetic surgery to substantial weight loss, there's very little the Geordie Shore girls haven't tried in an effort to overhaul their appearance.
And it looks like 27-year-old Sophie Kasaei is the latest cast member to undergo a transformation after falling victim to online trolls in recent months.
After rejoining the show, the original cast member gained 21 lbs over the course of a six week filming schedule, and ultimately shed a staggering 14 lbs of it over just seven days at a boot camp favoured by celebrities.
"I love filming Geordie Shore but it totally wrecks your diet. I was in great shape before we started filming the last series but that all went out of the window by the end of the series," Sophie explained.
"It is party central for almost two months and there is no time to go to the gym. You need so much discipline to stay in shape and I lost it big time."
Branded a 'whale' on social media after gaining weight due to the amount of alcohol and junk food she was consuming while filming Geordie Shore, Sophie decided to sign up to a military boot camp in Norfolk – an experience which she says she won't forget in a hurry,
"The 6am wake-up call was the biggest shock – that is the time I am normally getting back in from a nightclub when I am on Geordie!" she admitted.
"I loved every minute of it and I was thrilled to lose 7 lbs in five days. I could not believe the difference – I felt so much firmer all over."
Focussing on long-term goals, Sophie reveals she plans to return to the camp, saying: "I want to go back and do a proper body blitz and get seriously in shape like Holly and Charlotte."
Reflecting on the impact filming can have on the cast members, Sophie said: "It does take its toll on the girls in particular and a few of us do start to feel insecure about our bodies by the end of the filming."
"It is worse for me because I am only 5ft 1in, so there is nowhere for me to hide my weight," she added.
