Kim Kardashian Dishes 60-Lb Weight Loss Diet & Fitness: Why Kris Jenner Blames Kim For ‘KUWTK’ Ratings Drop
Kim Kardashian isn’t changing her name to Skinny Kimmy (yet), but she is celebrating the loss of all her pregnancy pounds, plus more. Kardashian, 35, now weighs 132 pounds, reported Us Weekly.
Recalling how much she weighed six years ago, Kim gloated that she has almost achieved her 2010 sleek physique.
“12 pounds to go to reach 2010 Kim!” wrote the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star.
Saint is only 5-months-old, while North is 2, but Kardashian began dieting soon after her son was born in December. She weighed 139.6 pounds last month.
“YOU GUYS!!!! PRE BABY WEIGHT WAS 135!!!!!” Kim wrote at one point in her travel down the scale.
Kardashian gained more than 60 pounds during her pregnancy with Saint. And she worked hard to take off those pounds by following the Atkins diet and exercising diligently.
Working with personal trainer Don Brooks, Kim described what she typically goes through.
“OK, guys, I have to do 20 sprints today,” she revealed. “This is just a little part of my sprints, you guys. I don’t think you understand, it’s like sprinting for a mile off and on.”
As for her Atkins diet, Kardashian has been candid in crediting it for taking off the weight, noted E! News.
“Yaaaassssss!!!! #Atkins,” Kim wrote on social media.
But resisting temptation when it comes to tasty foods and keeping up the exercise regime isn’t easy, especially when Kardashian is on vacation.
“I mean it’s a challenge, it’s not easy at all,” admitted the mom of two. “We just got back from our family vacation and every day, we were up early working out.”
As one of the co-stars of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Kim has played a key role in keeping the family name in the spotlight. But some claim that it is “momager” Kris Jenner pulling the strings behind the scenes, even to the point of alleging that Kris orchestrated that infamous sex tape, pointed out the Hollywood Gossip.
However, for three years now, ratings for the family’s reality TV show have been falling. Concerned that the public is weary of the Kardashian clan, Kris is plotting a way to return to the drama that made them famous originally.
Jenner blames the absence of Kim for those falling ratings. And so, with a bribe of money, Kris is determined to get her daughter to boost the KUWTK viewer numbers, a family insider told Radar Online.
“Kris has ordered Kim to help her save the show by bringing the drama. She saw how the ratings drop was tied to the fact that Kim has been largely absent from the plot this season.Kris has put Kim on a mission and offered her a extra million or two if she will be on every episode this upcoming season.”
Jenner feels that viewers are bored with the rest of the flock. Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom had their time in the spotlight, and Kris believes that the audience has had enough of watching Khloe’s drama play out.
“Kris knows that viewers are just really over and bored with all the Khloe and Lamar drama, as well as the Kylie Jenner coverage,” explained the source.
As for Kourtney Kardashian? Although Scott Disick at one point exploded across screens, riveting viewers with his own drama, Kris isn’t depending on the Kourtney plus Scott scenarios to save the show, added the insider.
“[Kris] knows that Kourtney cannot save [KUWTK] now that Scott is not an explosive asset.”
For Kim, the demand from her “momager” to shoulder the burden of saving Keeping Up with the Kardashians comes at the right time. After losing the baby weight, Kardashian is eager to take over the spotlight again.
“Kim cannot live without being the star of the show. She has taken a backseat this season because of her pregnancy and baby, but now that she is hot and skinny again she is ready to slay,” revealed the family source. “Kim loves power and prestige more than anything else in the world besides her money!”
