She took to her on Tuesday to speak out against … someone who talked at length about losing weight to fit into her dress during her red-carpet interview.“To walk on a red carpet and do an interview where you say how starving you are … because you haven’t eaten carbs in the last month … all to fit in a fucking dress?” Reinhart wrote. “So wrong.

I didn’t starve myself, but I was so strict.”Kim has a mixed history with body positivity — while her maddeningly good shapewear brand, , makes an unusually wide range of sizes, she also recently released a and has been known to promote and on Instagram. It was more than a little disappointing to see her continue this red-carpet trend, especially because she’s describing what essentially amounts to a three-week crash diet.
