Khloé Kardashian has spoken about her weight loss journey after facing claims she had used medication to aid her journey over the years, despite documenting her gym transformation
Khloé Kardashian spoke about her major transformation after changing her whole life. The reality star who found fame on Keeping Up With The Kardashians has been documenting her journey on social media, which involves gruelling gym workouts and a complete overhaul of her diet.
The 40-year-old was cruelly trolled during the early days of her career over her appearance, but she admits she was more confident. Now, though, Khloé says she has been trolled for her latest appearance, with some branding her "gross" for losing weight. It's believed that Khloé has lost around 40 pounds.
‌
"The bigger I was, I was way more confident," the mum-of-two said in the latest episode of her podcast. Khloé, who has since made a name as a philanthropist and businesswoman, went on to add: "I think because, like, what are going to say about me? I know all the things you're going to say. I would have my days that I would feel low and all of that."
‌
Speaking on her Khloé In Wonder Land podcast, she continued: "When I started my fitness journey and, like, becoming in shape, I felt such a need that I had to keep this up, like even if it wasn't for me. I felt like, 'Well, I can't get fat again, because everyone is expecting that to happen.'"
Khloé commented: "It was also a different type of attention I was now receiving. And then once I got a little older, I was like, 'Wait, this is gross.' I hated that that's why I was getting more attention because I looked a certain way." Khloé stated "with ages comes wisdom," before saying: "I've learned, no matter what, I'm never going to make people happy because I was once bigger, I was thinner, and I had the same amount of people, but from different ends."
Since losing weight, Khloé has been branded a "traitor", been told she's no longer herself and is "not funny anymore." Firing back at her critics, the Good American founder fumed: "I just aesthetically look a little different, or a lot different, whatever you want to say."
Earlier this year, Khloé shared a string of bikini snaps with her social media followers, showcasing her slimmed-down frame but was met with cruel responses from users. "Make Khloé thick again," said one.
‌
Another penned: "I loved — and I mean loved — thick Khloe. She was my fave." "So sad she lost those sexy curves," commented a third. But while people have speculated that Khloé has used medication, including the diabetes drug Ozempic for her weight loss, she has furiously denied this.
Although some people use Ozempic to aid weight loss, it is not licensed for this and should only be used by people with diabetes to aid their symptoms. Every week, Khloé works out for five days. She spends four days in the gym with her personal trainer and chooses a dedicated cardio exercise or Pilates on her fifth day. Speaking previously, the 5ft10 star said: "I do circuit training with cardio intervals, so I'm always spiking my heart rate up and down."
‌
Khloé also said in the past that she had been "overweight" for "a lot" of her life and feared she wouldn't be able to lose weight after the birth of her daughter, True. Speaking on the SHE MD podcast, she said: "I used to be overweight a lot of my life. God, I mean my weight-loss journey. It took years for me. I've always been chubby - like athletic. I've always played sports. I just was never in shape.
"I was 204 [14 stone 5 lbs] when I delivered and I was like 'How am I going to do this again?' because it took so many years to do it the first time." She added that she later lost her pregnancy weight quicker than she had imagined. But it's not just her work outs that help her.
While most people eat three meals a day, Khloé eats seven. She has cut out "all sodas, little by little," after experimenting with "every diet under the sun".
