Carnie Wilson is slamming the National Enquirer for claiming that she has gained 79 pounds and plans to have another gastric bypass.
"If I'm 205 today, that means I am up 70 pounds," she revealed in a candid interview about her weight battle on Good Morning America Thursday. 79 pounds, she said, "is an outright lie.
"It is very hard being in the public eye, being scrutinized for every pound," she added.
"They're saying I'm going to have liposuction, another gastric bypass to have a baby," she went on. "It's laughable."
Nine years ago, Wilson, now 39, underwent gastric bypass after ballooning to 300 pounds.
About 16 months after the procedure, she was down to 148 pounds.
Wilson — who has struggled with her weight since age 4 — said she packed the pounds back on while pregnant with her daughter Lola, who was born in 2005.
"A gastric bypass patient needs follow rules," Wilson said. "I fell off the bandwagon when I was pregnant... my eating habits changed.
"For me, it was about snacking," she added. "Somebody can consume a certain amount of calories, and if they don't burn the calories, that equals weight gain."
The Enquirer stands by its story that Wilson is planning on having another surgery, but Wilson said she is losing pounds through rigid exercise.
She said her ideal weight is "somewhere between 150 and 170."
Exercising is not easy, she admitted: "When I am on the treadmill, I am thinking about lunch."
But Wilson (who wants another baby) said, "I am committed to this, to my health, whether I am 300 or 200 or 150 [pounds].
Her weight, she said, "will always be a battle — surgery or no surgery.
"I am committed to my daughter. I want to be a light of hope for her," she added. "[I'm not saying] you need to be a size 6 ... you need to be healthy. That is the message I want to give to her."

It isn't easy to lose weight nor is it easy to maintain. Obviously some of you have never had any weight related issues in your life time! Sweep your own door step and quit worring about others!!
dear gawd do YOU want everyone to screwtinize YOU when you go up or down 30 or 50 pds? so what? she is in the public eye and yes its stupid, she is off by 9 stupid pds but still who gives a rip, it's HER downfall, its HER body, SHE has to live by her inability to maintain her weight.. SHE has to struggle with this. SHE has to lose the weight HOWEVER she does it, let her deal with it, if she does or doesnt so be it.. let her be.. skinny or fat.. just leave her alone, worry about yourselves..
The big, fat glutton-bitc h is back up to 390 stone or more--she's a seething, sloppy tranny mess who will die of a massive coronary like her pigmother Mamma Casserole...die now, fat who re!
Carnie's whole weight struggle story is getting old. She just needs to call Ricki Lake and get one-on-one help.
PS---I wasn't saying you should compare the two, just that everyone has flaws and should stop judging.
It's easy to be judgemental.....but I liked what you said, "Addiction is no joke"....some people just have issues beyond what others deal with. (For example, some people are pretty, but mean)
Why did she say "If I'm 205 today"? Why if? Are you are aren't you Carnie?
Carnie is not 79 pounds overweight just like Jennifer Love Hewitt is a size 2.
Riiiiiiiiiight. **wink wink**
I feel bad for her but there's no way she's a pound under 250. She's in denial. No wonder she keeps gaining weight.
Well the camera DOES add 10 pounds, so the estimates aren't really that far off.
P.S. Who cares?
Dear Carnie Wilson,
Shut up, put down the chips and ice cream, stop sitting around reading tabloids and watching TV stories about yourself, and go work out.
You have gained weight and need to get yourself together. Mmmmmkay?
Thank you.
hmm, i don't mean to sound mean, but why is she bit**** about 9 lbs? Close enough to 70. If they were off by 20 or more, then I would get pissed.
Well everyone has their own opinion and beliefs about addiction. I think the best way to go is to worry about changing yourself , not other's "understanding" of you. People are never going to think what you think they should think. lol
6:35 - I get it and I'm not trying to promote anything. She has been extremely open about her struggles with both food and other substances and I read many articles about what she was doing to help her. All I was trying to do is say that it is so easy to say that "she's fat, she has no discipline, etc." And, she clearly was sending a message by her quote. I didn't tell anyone to join any group, I'm not even saying that it is particularly workiing for me...as you can see, I said I am still struggling. I'm just trying for some compassion and understanding that there are many issues that are intertwined and we cannot judge unless we walk in others' shoes.
6:18, be careful what you post all over the internet about a certain group. Our public relations policy is based on attraction rather than promotion.
Hi everyone,
I really speak from experience on this one and there are many things that Carnie said that only those "in the know" know what she meant. I have always struggled with one addiction or another. I don't know why and I am not trying to hide my issues behind my family but...so many family members are alcoholics or drug addicts. When they quit those addictions, they turned to food. I was the other way around, which Carnie is as well. She was born to both a mother and a father that were addicted to drugs and alcohol. She turned to food (so did I). She lost weight (so did I, I went from 5'1", 270 lbs to 143 lbs. after Gastric Bypass Surgery). Then, guess what happened? I became an alcoholic (so did Carnie) and I am still struggling with the disease. When I went to treatment at Hazelden, they were starting to understand the connection. There is a connection in the brain between where alcohol hits and sugar in general. In the end, please be nice...there is so much more to this issue than "sticking 20 donuts in your mouth." You don't know what you don't live. If you are normal and healthy, thank your Higher Power but don't criticise others. Oh, and by the way, her comment that let me know where she is...she said we should live by "progress, not perfection", right from the AA 12-Steps.
Jody, on the Biggest Loser they also have professional trainers, don't work or have to raise families. They basically spend 24-7 trying to lose weight. How in the REAL WORLD, has that luxury?
Carnie- all you need is healthy diet, and exersize and a positive attitude and you can do it. They do it on the biggest loser all the time. It is nice to see you in a piture and at least trying to workout.
12:42 a.m. - "Carnie is a "regular" person, born with celebrity status,"
Uhhhhhhhhhh, she doesn't look "regular" to me, she looks SUPER SIZED! Why do Americans think 300 lbs is NORMAL...it's not! It's unhealthy!
Good luck Carnie. I'm rooting for you !!!
I agree Carnie! You've obviously gained at least 80 lbs! That kind of misrepresentation really burns me up too!
My prediction, she'll gain anoth 50 lbs and then go on the "Star Jones diet" ("Um...it was pilates.")
sooooo...why would she even make the statement "if im 205" like where does that number come from? and why would she compare 70 pounds to 79 pounds like its an "outright lie". please. whoever looked at her was off my nine pounds. she shouldnt complain that the media are attacking her about her weight when she used the media train and made it SOOO public that she had the surgery and then lost the weight. she even wrote a dang book about it! you dont get a gastric bypass unless you are seriously SERIOUSLY dedicated to changing your lifestyle. for life. not for a year or two. yeah people arent perfect. gain 20 pounds after a surgery like that? ok yeah thats understandable. but to go 70 pounds and just let the pounds come and come and come there is something mental going on.
150 KILOGRAMS!!!!!
Anyone who says that electing to have weight loss surgery is the "easy way out" is ignorant. Weight loss surgery is often the last ditch chance for someone who is morbidly obese to reduce their chances of dying too soon. It is a powerful tool
in the battle against obesity, but it is only that, a tool. It is not an "easy fix" or a "cure-all". The person electing the surgery faces all manner of complications and challenges for the rest of their life. The average person loses about 60% of their excess weight after surgery, significantly improving the person's health and appearance.
Carnie has nothing but my admiration for being so open about her very personal struggles with her weight. I only hope that her story and others like it help to educate the general public about this all too often misunderstood treatment for those people who suffer from morbid obesity, its severe health risks and its associated cultural stigma.
Carnie Wilson is a lovely person with a low metabolism. Gaining weight while pregnant is a natural occurance, some gain more than others. For naturally thin people, often times they have the "basketball" bump (ie. Nicole Kidman). For people who struggle with weight issues, even eating healthy foods, especially after being on such a low calorie intake beforehand, can cause higher weight gains. Carnie is a "regular" person, born with celebrity status, who tries to be a good example and influence for women. She encourages self-confidence. She should not be vilified for a set back (weight gain during pregnancy) that brought her so much joy. She has never been artifical - her honesty and candidness is unusual in celebrities. Most prefer the airbrushed, silicone, extensions and injections facade. Carnie is an inspiration at whatever weight she is!
I watched Carnie on Gone Country and I loved her! She is a great person and no one should be insulting her just because she is overweight. OBVIOUSLY (you see the pic) she is trying to lose it and people should just leave her alone. She's a beautiful person and I would LOVE TO MEET HER!! No I don't think it's ok to live your life overweight, but NEITHER DOES SHE. So please leave her alone and let her live her life. There is worse out there, like people who don't care about being healthy and sit around on their couch all day weighing 400 lbs and more. Love you Carnie!!!
Her weight is not the problem. She is. How come you gonna say her eating habits changed when she got pregnant? THIs is the time when your "EATING HABITS" need to be as healthful as ever....Maybe she was eating 20 dougnts for breakfast....
she haves to be between 250 to 300 she's to big
I agree that this example shows that the easiest path to take is not always the best path, in the long run. Life long weight loss comes from a lifestyle change, as with anything (quiting drugs, alcohol, money problems, relationship problems). You can't just have surgery and expect everything to be fixed. It takes hard work and changing your thinking. Hopefully Carnie gets that now.
7:28, assuming all skinny people "puke up their food and don't eat for weeks" is the same as assuming all overweight people are lazy and stuff their face constantly.
If you don't think it's right to bash people who are overweight then you shouldn't bash people who are normal or underweight.
You shouldn't make judgements like that. Sometimes it is genetics or could be something you have no idea about, like a thyroid condition.
