Just a few months ago, Khloé Kardashian was being encouraged by Kim to pose for some ~sexy shoots~ to show off her new body. Khloé wasn't quite so keen.
However, when Kim scored Khloé the cover of Complex magazine, her insecurities seemed to fade straight away.
And the shots were the fire emoji come to life.
So when she posed for the cover of Shape magazine, Khloé was even more body confident, and photos were taken of her like this...
...and this.
However, the magazine eventually chose this shot for the cover.
And Khloé wasn't a fan, taking to Twitter to say she wished the magazine had chosen a less "safe" shot for the cover.
Love Shape mag & I'm thrilled to be on the cover but we took so many better cover images.
I wish they would have used the other set ups over that simple grey look. 😏
Looks like we might make a Kim mark II of Khloé yet.
But she was pretty proud to have made the cover, especially after years of being labelled the "fat" Kardashian sister.
But how fucking crazy that me... "The fat one" is on the cover of Shape!!! Ha! 😝
She also revealed in the interview, that weight loss had never been her goal when she began exercising – in fact, she chose it over therapy after splitting from Lamar Odom in 2013.
Khloé explained:
"When Lamar and I broke up I had all these emotions that I didn't know what to do. Some people suggested therapy, but instead I joined my local Equinox gym, where I'd get on an elliptical and watch bad reality TV. As a result, I started losing weight. Once I realised I could shed some pounds that way, I began working out regularly with my trainer, Gunnar Peterson, and I made a commitment to get healthy."
She also revealed that when Lamar was in hospital earlier this year, after overdosing at a brothel, she put exercise on the backburner – and suffered because of it.
Khloé said:
"When Lamar was in the hospital, I stopped doing the one thing I really needed: exercise. The gym takes all the anxiety away when I'm overwhelmed or stressed out."
Well, it's clear Khloé has never looked healthier or happier.
