Khloe Kardashian<\/a> has addressed the fatphobic culture of the early 2000s, recalling being called ‘fat’ during a workout.<\/p>\n

The 41-year-old was on her way to an event at Barry’s Bootcamp\u00a0in Studio City, California<\/a>,\u00a0during the season seven premiere of The Kardashians, when she reminisced about her past experiences with co-founder Barry Jay.<\/p>\n

While sitting in traffic, the reality star rang sister Kourtney Kardashian<\/a>, where the mom-of-two divulged what the trainer had previously said to her.<\/p>\n

‘Remember when Barry called me fat?’ she asked Kourtney. ‘This was years and years ago, and we were running and I stopped. And he was like, “That’s what you’re fat!” and I was like, “That’s why I’m here!”‘<\/p>\n

In a piece to camera interview, Khloe said at the time she was ‘fatter’ than she is now.<\/p>\n

‘We were working out and I remember taking a break because I couldn’t run and he was like, “That’s why you’re fat,”‘ she exclaimed.<\/p>\n

She added: ‘I just remember [thinking] “God, that’s a weird way to encourage people.”‘<\/p>\n

But Khloe then dismissed the slight, saying it was a ‘different time.’<\/p>\n

‘This was, like, 2006. Biggest Loser and diet pills,’ she listed. ‘You were allowed to call people fat. But we never spoke after that. That’s literally the whole exchange.’\u00a0<\/p>\n

Daily Mail has reached out to Barry’s Bootcamp for comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Kardashians have often gone to Barry’s Bootcamp to work up a sweat, with the studio featured in their short lived spinoff show Kourtney And Kim Take New York, which aired from 2011 to 2012.<\/p>\n

Khloe had previously opened up about body image issues she faced during the early days of Keeping Up With The Kardashians.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘When the show first started, I was very secure, very secure,’ she admitted during a reunion in 2021.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘And then during the first couple seasons, I became insecure because of the public opinions of myself. Then I had, I think, a good run of being secure, and then I think recently I’ve become insecure again. So I guess it just goes, you know, up and down,’ she reflected.<\/p>\n

Khloe has seen a physical transformation over recent years, undergoing a massive 40-pound weight loss.<\/p>\n

The reality star has attributed her new lean physique <\/a>to following a strict diet and exercising regularly.<\/p>\n

The TV personality decided to overhaul her diet and her lifestyle years ago – but she previously admitted that it hasn’t been an easy process. Pictured in 2012<\/p>\n

In 2024, while appearing on the SHE MD podcast, the mother-of-two recalled being 204 pounds when she gave birth to her daughter True, who she shares with ex Tristan Thompson.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Although she had previously lost a lot of weight following her split from ex-husband, Lamar Odom, by hitting the gym daily.<\/p>\n

She admitted she was initially nervous about whether she could trim down again because it took ‘so many years to do it the first time.’\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘But, because I had all the tools in my toolbox, I knew what to do and I actually lost my pregnancy weight so much faster than I ever did my regular fat weight,’ she noted.<\/p>\n

She also reflected on being use to being ‘overweight a lot’ of her life.<\/p>\n

‘God, I mean my weight-loss journey. It took years for me. I’ve always been chubby – like athletic. I’ve always played sports. I just was never in shape,’ she said.<\/p>\n

Khloe – who shares True, six, and son Tatum, two, with Tristan – also confessed to being an ’emotional eater’ during her younger years.<\/p>\n

‘I used to be a major emotional eater for sure, but then when I was done, I would always be like, “Wait!” I would feel so good eating. And then… so bad after,’ she admitted.<\/p>\n

‘And then I would cry and probably do it again because I was sad so I needed the ice cream again. And it was this crazy repeat cycle, but I gave myself a lot of patience and I just took my time.’<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Khloe Kardashian has addressed the fatphobic culture of the early 2000s, recalling being called ‘fat’ during a workout.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":237642,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[49,3335,48,2093,407,84,112187,19018,26575,890],"class_list":{"0":"post-237641","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-fitness","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-california","10":"tag-canada","11":"tag-dailymail","12":"tag-fitness","13":"tag-health","14":"tag-keeping-up-with-the-kardashians","15":"tag-khloe-kardashian","16":"tag-kourtney-kardashian","17":"tag-lifestyle"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/237641","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=237641"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/237641\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/237642"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=237641"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=237641"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=237641"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
