Carnie Wilson may be struggling with her own post baby weight loss but she’s not going to allow her kids to make the same mistakes she did. As she finishes up filming the first season of her Unstapled reality show she weighs in with Dr. Oz and talks about how she’s encouraging her children to exercise and eat right. For example, when she’s out playing or swimming with 4-year-old Lola, Carnie is sure to mention why they are exercising. She explains a walk the mother and daughter took together,
“I tell her, ‘Hey, when you have too much fat on your body, it’s bad for your heart,’ or, ‘If you’re too skinny, that’s bad for you, too.’ It’s important for us to get lots of exercise and don’t eat too many treats and try to eat a lot of vegetables, which she still won’t do [laughs].”
Carnie doesn’t want to instill fear in her daughter but wants her to be aware that life is precious and that people have to take care of themselves if they want to be around for a long time.
It’s been eight months since Carnie gave birth to her youngest daughter Luciana and even though her husband is very supportive and healthy eating is a family affair she still can’t seem to lose the weight. Hopefully with the help of family and Dr. Oz she’ll have better luck in season two of her show.
Celeb Diet Doc…
Carnie Wilson sure has made losing weight a career… and that’s why I don’t think she will ever lose weight. I have treated many patients who get certain benefits out of a certain illness or disease that they refuse to relinquish. It’s to the point that they have no desire to be cured (In medical terms it’s referred to as secondary gain).
In Carnie’s case she has been forever identified as having an “overweight problem” and has certainly attained a lot of media attention over it. After her gastric bypass surgery she was briefly “thin” and I do believe if she truly wanted to be thin she could do it. But I don’t. As a thin person, she may have lost her identity and perversely lost some media attention because of this (I mean how many articles can you write about someone who last finally lost the weight vs someone who is constantly struggling). So subconsciously, Carnie found ways to circumvent her gastric bypass (I suspect she drinks a lot of liquid calories) so that she could regain her weight and regain her identity.
