Kim Kardashian Says Fat-Shaming “Chipped Away At My Soul”; 7 lbs Away From Goal Weight
Kim Kardashian was literally compared to a whale during a pregnancy in which tabloids fabricated her weight at six-months pregnant as being “200 lbs.”
Every other day was new fat-shaming, comments about how Khloe is the “hot sister now,” and claiming Kanye was disgusted with Kim’s body and threatened to leave.
It was brutal, and although she put on a brave face Kim now reveals how much all that affected her.
“Pregnancy for me was a lot tougher than people saw on my show or from magazines,” she tells PEOPLE. “Every day I would hear people criticize me, and it would affect me.”
“Little by little, it would chip away at my soul,” she added, “I wanted to tune out the media and my public life and ignore it all.”
“To get back to feeling like myself just makes me feel good again,” she continues. “It’s all about feeling your best.”
“Losing this weight has not been easy, but I did it and that’s so rewarding,” she says, noting that she’s seven pounds from her goal weight after gaining 50 lbs during the pregnancy. “I was dedicated and motivated, and for me, that paid off.”
