Skinny VS Curvy

… even though she’s a size 6.

Life & Style reports:

Even though reality star Khloé Kardashian recently shed 25 pounds, bloggers were calling her a “monster beast,” “Kong,” “Bigfoot” and a “fat skunk” after she walked down the aisle in her fairy-tale Vera Wang wedding gown and tied the knot with Lamar Odom on Sept. 27.

And fellow reality stars added to the unfair ridicule. Supermodel Janice Dickinson attacked the star saying, “There’s no way she would become a fashion icon. Khloé looks like a heifer.” And Spencer Pratt recently said, “Khloé still needs to work out more. I recommend she go to theheidimontagworkout.com so she can get fantastic curves like my wife’s.”

But the feisty newlywed, who dropped from a size 10 to a 6, isn’t taking the comments laying down. “Everyone criticizes me about my weight all the time,” Khloé tells Life & Style. “It’s easy for me to be like some other girls in Hollywood — not eat and become anorexic — but thank goodness I am strong-willed and secure with myself.”

Self-confidence didn’t always come easy for the Kourtney & Khloé Take Miami star.

“When I was a chunky little 8-year-old and I had these two beautiful sisters, I’d wonder, why don’t I look like that?” Khloé remembers. “Now I hate it when people compare me to my sisters. Kourtney’s 5 feet, I’m 5-foot-10 and Kim is 5-foot-2. I will never look like them. No matter how skinny I am, that body will never be mine.”

Still, the attacks continue. “Khloé should be put out to pasture,” Janice Dickinson says. “She should be kept in the stables along with the rest of that family. I think she’s a little pig. The whole family is piglike.”

Comments like that once would have left Khloé in tears. But these days, she’s brimming with confidence thanks to her new healthy diet and fitness plan.

“Khloé’s in the best shape of her life, and millions of people would kill to look like her,” Kim told Life & Style as she was leaving STK restaurant in LA on Oct. 2. So even though Khloé was unfairly ridiculed on what was supposed to be the happiest day of her life, in the end she’s getting the last laugh: She has the perfect body and the perfect man.

“Way before, I was a size 10. Then I went to an 8, and now I’m a 6,” Khloé tells Life & Style. “I don’t think with my bone structure I could get much smaller than a 6. This is my body — and I love it.”

Whoa, those comments coming from Janice are pretty mean. And Spencer is funny, let’s all laugh, haha.

I’m no fan and I dislike the fact that these sisters talk so much about their weight (and pose oh-so-oftenly in bikinis), but being called “heifer” as much as Khloe does can’t be pleasant.

Oh oh… all you curvy lovers are probably a little worried – Will Christina lose her famous curves? Well, let’s hear the details!

Don’t worry, January Jones–Christina Hendricks has no intention of losing her curves. At an Emmy after-party on Sunday, the Mad Men actress told People that Christina’s “has gone on a diet” to prepare for her wedding. Her advice to her co-star: “Not to go too far, because if she loses her curves it will be a very sad day.”

Good thing Christina is totally content with how she looks. She told SELF, “My healthiest habit is keeping positive about my body at whatever stage it is–being confident and celebrating who I am at the moment.”

The sexy ’60s office manager–whose husband said she’s “changing people’s view of what’s beautiful”–did admit to switching up her diet, but not for her wedding, rather, a life change. Keep reading for the details!

Christina is a self-professed foodie, even though she grew up in a household where her mom made “very much Southern ’70s cooking, like fried chicken, mashed potatoes and quiche.” It wasn’t until she moved away from home that she realized there was a whole world of food out there. “Like vegetables!” she said. “My mom didn’t like them, so she hardly ever cooked them–and when she did, they would be overcooked. Now when she comes over and I make fresh veggies, she says, ‘These are the most delicious things I’ve ever had!’ So I’ve turned my mom on to vegetables, which is good.”

To stay healthy, Christina gets “inspired by” the seasonal recipes in cooking magazines and on sites like epicurious.com. “Otherwise, I’ll just go to the grocery store and look around for what’s beautiful and pick that up. Like rhubarbs!”

As for her diet, she started it “just for me, for my life. I feel like I need more energy, so I’m trying to stay away from tons of carbs and eat more protein.”

She also exercises three times a week with a trainer–and her fiancee! “It’s amazing how quick an hour can go by when you work out with someone you love,” she said. Their typical workout includes well-rounded cardio and strength development. “Working out together makes it fun!”

Christina’s perspective on health and fitness is pretty refreshing, huh? Not that she sees herself as a poster girl for curvy woman on TV. “At first, I thought people were calling me out and it made me feel uncomfortable that they were focused on it,” she admitted. “Then when I realized it was all positive and it was actually helping other people, it started making me feel great.”

Life&Style has all the details:

Karina Smirnoff tells Life & Style. “The dancing is the diet, but everyone is different. So if celebrities really want to get the most out of the experience, they implement a healthy diet full of protein.”

KARINA PACKS HER DIET WITH FRUITS AND VEGGIES

Professional dancer Karina Smirnoff, 31, is a svelte 110 pounds, but even she has to tweak her diet to get into top TV shape. The 5-foot-5 dancer tells Life & Style she typically has egg whites with spinach and tomato for breakfast, fruit for lunch, and salad and fish for dinner. But her best diet advice? “Listen to your body,” she says. “There are foods that your system will digest easily and others it will struggle with. Of course, fruits and veggies are always good.”

KELLY FINALLY DROPS THE POUNDS

Fan favorite Kelly Osbourne, 24, says that after years of yoyo dieting, dancing has been the only healthy way she’s been able to lose weight. “I do five hours of rehearsals a day — sometimes even six,” she told Life & Style at the 7th Annual Teen Vogue Young Hollywood Party on Sept. 26. The 5-foot-3 star lost 14 pounds in the first six weeks of rehearsals; since then, she’s lost even more inches. “My body is completely changing; I’m getting really small in places where I’ve never been that small before!” Kelly says. “Kelly has cut out late-night snacking,” an insider tells Life & Style. She also drinks six glasses of water a day.

MYA ADDS MUSCLE MASS

Mya, 30, has slimmed down — and toned up! “I lost 11 pounds in four weeks,” the 5-foot-5½ contestant told Life & Style at a Humane Society event in LA on Sept. 22. And the singer continues to keep off the weight with occasional twice-daily runs that speed up the metabolism. “My body has gotten more toned,” she told Life & Style at the beginning of rehearsal. “I’m seeing a lot more definition, especially in my arms.”

DEBI FILLS UP ON H2O

“I’ve lost 11 pounds, and I’ve noticed my body toning in weird areas,” Debi Mazar, 45, tells Life & Style. Thanks to five-day-a-week rehearsals — and in spite of a torn neck muscle — she even notes, “My bra bulge is gone!” The 5-foot-5 actress and cooking-show co-host keeps her energy up with homemade lunches of pasta, fruit and even chocolate, plus “tons of water.” Staying hydrated helps prevent fatigue so you can get through your workout.

Since we saw Scarlett yesterday and some of you were saying that she has gained some weight (back), this quote of her from Glamour Magazine is quite interesting – Here’s the whole body-related part:

Scarlett Johansson is over endless speculation about her weight.

“There was this rumor mill cranking out stories that I had lost 14 pounds — I could never lose 14 pounds,” the actress, 25, tells the November issue of Glamour. “I hate seeing these ridiculous articles where [tabloids] guess someone’s weight.

“I can’t look at somebody who is 6 feet tall and 120 pounds and say, I’m going to get that body. That’s just never going to happen,” she admits.

Johansson — who slimmed down to wear a lycra catsuit as the Black Widow in the Iron Man 2 sequel (out next spring) — has accepted her body, she says.

“You have to work with what you’ve got,” she says. But despite coming to terms with her figure, working the red carpet still makes her freak out. I have a tumultuous relationship with it because I love to get ready for the red carpet, but being on it is very uncomfortable. It’s so freakish and weird,” Johansson says. “I get flop sweats, dry mouth, heart palpitations, allover panic!”
