Kendra Wilkinson: Happy With Her Size For Now

http://www.lifeandstylemag.com/2011/05/25/Kendra_LogoAA_1.jpgKendra Wilkinson got more than just 6th place on Dancing With the Stars -- she got her former body back! "I feel like I look so much better than I used to!" Kendra reveals during her exclusive Life & Style photo shoot. "I was a size 2 or 4 before Dancing With the Stars and now I'm a size 0. My waist is still shrinking! When you work out, you produce so much lactic acid, so my body always looks thicker and more muscular. Now that I've had a couple of weeks off, my body is fuller and looks better. I hope I'll look like this forever. But to be honest, I will never be satisfied!"

Kendra reveals that a combination of Ab Cuts' fat-burning supplements and a diet of natural foods helped to keep her fit. "Ab Cuts and fruits and veggies are my answer," Kendra explains. "When you're eating bad, you end up getting bacteria overgrowth. When you eat well, your body naturally cleanses itself."

The former Girl Next Door publicly struggled to reclaim her famous Playboy body following son Hank's December 2009 birth where she gained 60 pounds of baby weight. Although she's dropped the weight, it hasn't stopped her from thinking about baby no. 2. "I'm worried about gaining the weight back," she says to Life & Style. "but motherhood is worth it."

So what will be different next time? "I've learned my lesson with the first child," Kendra says. "I'm determined to be healthier and treat my body better." Hubby Hank Baskett is just as excited for her new toned body. "Hank loves my new body," she tells Life & Style. "He says this is the most beautiful I've ever looked." And while Hank can't wait to add onto their growing family, for now the two are reconnecting in the bedroom. "He's ready [for another baby], but we're just having fun being young parents to Hank for now," she adds.

Vienna Girardi: How I Lost 20 Pounds

http://www.usmagazine.com/uploads/assets/articles/40937-vienna-girardi-how-i-lost-the-20-pounds-i-gained-during-the-bachelor/1304702388_vienna-290.jpgLooking good is the best revenge!

Nearly a year after splitting from The Bachelor's Jake Pavelka, Vienna Girardi has a new man -- and a hot new figure.

As the 23-year-old reality star tells Us Weekly, she recently dropped the 20 lbs. she gained during her 2010 stint on the ABC series. Girardi's best body part? Her taut tummy.

"I love my stomach," she told Us at Thursday's Friends of El Faro Celebrity Poker Tournament in L.A., adding that she'd like to drop 15 more lbs. "I'm working on getting it back…I'm six pounds down and I have a few more to go. I'm working out with my trainer, Brian Peeler, and I started working out at Physique 57."

Girardi says the key to her weight loss success has been cardio training and a strict diet without starches or wheat.

When it comes to logging hours at the gym, "We do something different every week. Today we went to [L.A.'s] Runyon [Canyon], and I have gone to Runyon a million times but never like we did today. Not only was it 100 degrees out, but he literally made me run down the hill with my shoulders back and your core tight. Then, he made me run up the mountain on the steps. I was so sore by the end of the work out. Every 15 minutes, I was like 'I'm gonna pass out!'"

With Pavelka long out of the picture, Girardi has a new man who appreciates her curves: Bachelorette star Kasey Kahl, whom she began dating earlier this year.

Enduring a long distance relationship -- Girardi lives in L.A. and Kahl in Fresno, Calif., -- the couple work hard to make their romance work.

"We are so crazy about each other, Girardi gushes to Us. "The only thing we bicker about are [travel arrangements]. It's always like 'are you gonna drive here this weekend or am I gonna drive there this weekend?' But, it's a good bicker because we just want to be around each other!"

Khloe Kardashian: I'm "Massive" Next To Sisters

http://www.usmagazine.com/uploads/assets/articles/40651-khloe-kardashian-i-feel-massive-next-to-kim-kourtney/1303924048_khloe-290.jpgIt's not easy being the "biggest" Kardashian sister.

In the new issue of Us Weekly, out Wednesday, Khloe Kardashian admits red carpet events with older sibs Kim and Kourtney can take their toll on her self esteem.

"They are 5-foot and 5-foot-2, so I look massive next to them," Khloe, who is 5-foot-10, tells Us. "Everyone expects me to be 9 feet tall and weigh 200 pounds [when they meet me]."

26-year-old Khloe -- whose mom Kris Jenner even criticized her weight in a recent episode of Khloe and Lamar - has "struggled with her weight since she was 8 years old," a family friend tells Us. "She was always taller and developed much broader shoulders than her petite sisters."

And the E! reality star, happily married to basketball star Lamar Odom for over a year, says she first gained weight following Kris' divorce from her late father, famed OJ Simpson trial attorney Robert Kardashian Sr.

"My brother [Rob] and I were always heavy. They gave us food to keep us comforted. All we did was eat crap," she recalls.

Classmates and even her mom's friends noticed that Khloe's older sisters Kim, 30, and Kourtney, 32, stayed skinny despite the family turmoil. "I had older women tell me, 'You should really work out,'" she explains. "It really got to me."

Her initial response? A teenaged Khloe hit the gym, working out three times a day and eating tiny meals. She went from a size 12 to 0.

"I started to get a positive response from people when I was losing weight," she admits.

http://www.lifeandstylemag.com/2011/03/03/JacquelineBeforeAfter1111.jpg

One addition to the next season of the Real Housewives of New Jersey? Jacqueline Laurita's hot new bod! The Housewife star reveals how she trimmed off 30 pounds in the new issue of Life & Style.

Jacqueline gained 55 pounds while pregnant with her son Nicolas but after giving birth in June 2009, she still had 30 pounds to lose.

Thanks to regular workouts and Medifast meal replacements (including shakes, soups and bars, all supplemented with one meal of protein and veggies per day), the 5-foot-3 reality star has trimmed down to her current weight of 120 pounds. "I lost 12 pounds the first two weeks," Jacqueline, 40, tells Life & Style. "I'm able to get back into my old jeans -- I can't believe it!"

And she can't wait to show off her svelte figure on Real Housewives, which resumes later this year. "It's going to be the best season we've ever had," she says.

Bethenny Frankel Reveals She Starved Herself

http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2011/02/16/article-1357738-0D3A1904000005DC-557_233x631.jpgBethenny Frankel has built a successful business empire on sharing her secrets to being thin.

But the reality TV star, whose best-selling books include "Naturally Thin" and "The Skinnygirl Dish," has revealed she once resorted to dangerous methods to look lean.

The mother-of-one has admitted that up until her thirties, she was consumed by an obsession with weight loss.

After trying everything from binging to laxatives, the 40-year-old said she felt trapped and used to starve herself.

'I used to forbid myself from everything,' she revealed in the latest issue of Us Weekly magazine.

'Until my early thirties, I spent my entire life being obsessed with dieting. Bingeing and then fasting or starving. Forbidding everything.'

Bethenny said her issues began when she was in school and a class mate teased her about her appearance.

Following the incident, Bethenny, who said she was only around 8 pounds overweight, visited an obesity clinic.

In the revealing interview, she hinted that her own mother's difficult relationship with food had an impact on her.

Bethenny's mother, Bernadette Birk, from whom she is estranged, allegedly suffered bulimia.

'There was a lot of food obsession and diet obsession and being-thin obsession,' she said.

'My mother was very beautiful and very thin. Being thin was very important to her and part of her identity. I also wanted to be thin.'

The former Real Housewives Of New York star says she has now conquered her body-image struggle and has developed a healthy attitude to food.

'I always say I don't think you should be guilty about food,' she says. 'You can have it all. Just don't have it all at once!'
