Kristin Cavallari is looking back to a time when she didn’t have the best relationship with food.
During a recent interview with Bustle, Cavallari shared that she is in « the best shape » she’s ever been in and attributes most of it to the changes she made in her eating habits.
« I’m eating the most carbs I ever have, » she told the outlet. « There was a period of my life where I would not go near a carb. I was even afraid of carrots for a while because I was doing keto coupled with intermittent fasting, and I actually think it messed up my metabolism. And it took me a year to stabilize. Now this freedom with food has been really nice. »
The former reality TV star also discussed her divorce from Jay Cutler, saying the experience forced her « to let go of a lot of control » and just let whatever needed to happen happen « instead of trying to plan everything. »

Two years after finalizing her divorce from the retired football player, Cavallari told Bustle, « I’m way happier, and I’m way more at peace in my life. »
While she is happy in her life now, Cavallari previously shared the ways in which her « unhappy marriage » to Cutler negatively affected her weight and her overall health during an episode of her « Let’s Be Honest With Kristin Cavallari » podcast.
« There was a period of my life where I would not go near a carb. I was even afraid of carrots for a while because I was doing keto coupled with intermittent fasting, and I actually think it messed up my metabolism. And it took me a year to stabilize. Now this freedom with food has been really nice. »
« I was very thin, » Cavallari said. « I’ll put it in perspective for you guys. I’m 5-3. I currently weigh 114 pounds. Filming ‘Very Cavallari,’ I got down to 102, and I was eating the same amount of food that I’m eating now. »
She attributed her weight loss to the stress her marriage was putting on her, stressing « I was so unhappy, and I had way too much on my plate. »

« I own my own house. I have kids. I don’t need a man for anything other than just pure happiness, » she told Bustle. « Emotionally, he’s able to step up to the plate, and he’s shown up for me more than anyone else I’ve ever dated. »
