Carnie Wilson Dishes With OK

Carnie Wilson is no stranger to battling her weight problems. Like millions of other people, she has waged a war to take control over her body which has included gastric by-pass surgery, when she was at her highest weight of 300 pounds. She slimmed down to 146 pounds, but found herself having to deal with the need to find other coping skills for her emotional issues. She admits to having a drinking problem, but now that's all behind her. In fact, as soon as she quit drinking, she got pregnant with daughter Lola, who is now three years old. Raising a child is not easy and certainly most moms can relate to the stress and lack of sleep which often leads to eating poorly. As a result, Carnie found herself gaining more weight. Once she reached just over 200 pounds, she sought the help of a nutritionist and trainer. She is now getting healthy and losing weight sensibly in the hopes of having another child in the near future. Most importantly, Carnie is teaching daughter Lola who great healthy food can taste.
