Kourtney Kardashian is embracing her "thicker body."
Kourtney Kardashian is loving her body in all its forms.
During the latest episode of The Kardashians, the reality star, 43, got candid about her body image while explaining that she gained weight as a result of her IVF journey with husband Travis Barker.
"So obviously my body's changed. But it was all of the hormones that the doctors put me on," she explained during the episode of the Hulu show airing Oct. 6.
"Eight months of IVF treatment has definitely taken a toll on my body mentally and physically. It's taken me a lot to get me to the place of feeling really comfortable and happy with the changes."
Kardashian then discussed the difficulty of dealing with social media users who comment on "every photo" about her weight and often even speculate that she's pregnant, which she said would be harder to deal with if it weren't for Barker.
"Every day, Travis is like, 'You're perfect,'" she stated. "If I make one complaint, he's like, 'You're perfect. You're so fine...You've never been better."
"Having a partner who's so supportive of me and always complimenting me like no matter what, it's just helped me to really embrace the changes and actually to the point where I love the changes now," the Poosh founder explained, noting that the Blink 182 drummer has made her "so into" her new curves.
"My ass is amazing," she continued, adding that she is so in love with her "thicker body" that she now cringes when she looks at photos of herself from when she was smaller.
"When I was super skinny, it's like a time that I was super anxious. Not about eating, not about staying at a certain weight. But, like, just in toxic relationships," she said. "I used to always say this: 'When I'm super skinny, just know I'm not happy.'"
Kardashian then described the previous stages of her body, noting that she used to way 95 lbs. before 105 lbs. became her "new normal" at the time. "I'm 115," she said of her current state, admitting, "I used to be so stuck on the number."
"I love being curvier. It's just channeling that queen energy and embracing the woman that I am," she added.
