Kim Kardashian Defends Her Weight

Kim Kardashian has been looking amazing lately! The reality star always looks great, but recently Kim has put a lot of extra focus on getting into the best shape of her life—and it shows!

Kim posted pictures from her shoot with QuickTrim with her sister Khloe. Both girls donned skimpy bikinis, and looked great! But it has raised some eyebrows since people are wondering how they did it so fast.

But Kim insists she’s lost weight and toned up the old-fashioned way—eating right and working out. She wrote on her website, "I really feel like I have reached my fitness goal and now I am toned, fit and at a healthy weight and I just need to keep it up!"

Kim also insists she still eats her fair share. In fact, on Thanksgiving, she tweeted that she was looking forward to sweet potato soufflé, fried chicken, turkey, dressing and cranberry sauce. But she said she was planning to hit the treadmill while the food was in the oven. "No excuse for getting lazy during the holidays,” she said.

So how did this sudden spike of interest in weight loss come about? Hollyscoop caught up with Kim’s former Dancing With the Stars partner Mark Ballas, and he told us Kim has always been focused and dedicated to looking her best.

“I don’t know maybe the dancing got her moving,” Mark said. “But she is very disciplined and one of the sweetest people I know. I talk to her all the time; we became really close friends. She is focused in that gym working on that fitness everyday, doing her thing. I am proud of her.

Kim makes it sound—and look—so easy! But we’re happy she’s getting trim the healthy way. And she looks better than ever!
