Kim Kardashian Talks Weight Gain: I Got “Comfortable” But It’s Time To “Get It Together”
October 3, 2012 by Hollywoodite
Kim Kardashian has gained enough pounds since dating Kanye West, reportedly at his behest because he likes heavier women, for people to notice and comment on it. Kardashian, 31, was never skinny anyway. However, she’s clearly put on weight since getting “comfortable,” her word, in her apparently cooling relationship.
National Enquirer speculated that Kardashian gained “15 lbs” on her “5 ft 3 in” frame although it looks more like 20-30 lbs (photos from August 2011 compared to September 2012). And it’s very, very apparent on such a short frame with such short arms and legs when all the weight goes to her thighs and butt.
Kardashian tells Life & Style this week, though, she knows she’s getting too heavy and it’s time she “get it together again” and lose the weight. Especially when she’s so heavy she’s split two outfits in the last few months (once ahead of Jimmy Kimmel Live and once after an event for Midori).
After a wardrobe malfunction where Kim Kardashian busted out of her figure-hugging dress at the Midori makeover event on Sept. 25, the curvaceous star tells Life & Style she’s keen to get back into shape… and she’s not ashamed to admit it!
“I’m hoping to slim down a little bit, and I’m not afraid to say it,” Kim tells the new issue of Life & Style, on newsstands now. “I think everyone goes up and down in whatever that comfortable love relationship phase is where you like to eat out, but now it’s time to get it together again.”
Since she began dating Kanye West in April, “she’s gained 15 to 20 pounds. All Kim and Kanye ever do is go out to eat,” shares a friend. “She feels so comfortable around him, he loves her curves, she hasn’t been vigilant about dieting.”
Kim’s plan of attack? “I’ve started [diet supplement] QuickTrim again,” she reveals to Life & Style. “When I start that, it’s full focus.” And it looks like Kim’s hard work is paying off: She’s told friends that she’s already shed six pounds. – via Life & Style Magazine.
