Kate Puncher A bride-to-be\'s final dress fitting is always a bit of a tense and emotional affair. But when Kate Puncher realised that her wedding dress was too small, instead of being distraught, she felt a huge sense of achievement. The former anorexic overcame her condition after her fiancé bought her a wedding dress two sizes too big - and ordered her to put on three stone to fit into it. She managed to put on even more. Kate, 31, has battled the eating disorder since her teens and once weighed just four stone by surviving on nothing but mints. The former model was regularly admitted to hospital and doctors warned her she would never have children because her body was so damaged by the condition. But when she got engaged to sweetheart Barry, 30, gave her an ultimatum, start eating or the wedding is off. So unlike most brides who desperately diet into their dresses, Kate had to EAT her way into the outfit - and put on so much weight she even needed the waist let out. The stunning blonde has maintained her weight - and the couple have now had the baby they feared they could never have.
