In the latest episode of The Kardashians on Wednesday, Kourtney revealed she felt insecure after gaining weight while undergoing IVF.
While on the set of the Bustle shoot, she told her assistant Liz Muller and stylist Dani Michelle: “So obviously my body has changed.
“But it was all of the hormones that the doctors put me on. Eight months of IVF treatment took such a toll on me mentally and physically.
“And it’s taken a lot to get me to the place of feeling comfortable and happy with the changes.
“Everyone comments in every photo that I’m pregnant. And we wish that and if it’s in God’s plan then it is.”
Kourtney then talked about how her husband Travis Barker, 46, has encouraged her to have a positive attitude about her body.
“Travis always tells me every day, ‘You’re perfect,'” she confessed.
“Like if I complain about any little thing, he’s like, ‘You’re perfect, you’re so fine. You’ve never been better.’ So now I’m so into it.
“My a** is amazing. I’m so into my thicker body. I looked at photos of my body when I was so skinny and it was so cringy.”
During her confessional, the show played a slideshow of old photos of Kourtney looking very skinny.
BODY IMAGE ISSUES
She said: “When I was super skinny, it’s like a time that I was super anxious.
“Not about eating or staying at a certain weight, I was in toxic relationships. I always say this but when I’m really thin, know I’m not happy.
“I also just love being curvier. It’s just channeling that queen energy and embracing the woman that I am.”
Back on the set of the shoot, Kourtney told her team: “I used to be like 95 pounds. And then 105 became my normal weight.
“I’m 115 [pounds now]. I used to be set on the number.”
Her stylist Dani Michelle then complained about putting on weight herself, to which Kourtney declared: “You’re perfect! You just need new pants.”
BABY STRUGGLES
The Poosh founder has three children with her ex Scott Disick – Mason, 12, Penelope, 10, and Reign, seven.
Viewers have seen Kourtney’s struggle to have a baby with Travis – who she married in May.
The couple underwent an unsuccessful round of IVF in the first season of The Kardashians.
Meanwhile, Kourtney recently faced backlash over her parenting skills.
Kourtney revealed she has a strict policy concerning junk food and diets for her children and has banned son Mason from eating fries.
The KUWTK alum recalled a time when her eldest child wanted fries from McDonald’s but she refused.
Following the backlash, Kourtney explained on Instagram: “… We love and eat lots of French fries, but we do try to avoid fast food French fries!”
Kourtney then proceeded to list the ingredients in French fries, which include “potatoes, vegetable oil, hydrogenated soybean oil, and natural beef flavor”.
