Kim Kardashian's body panic

She has barely reached the second trimester and already the reality star is waging war against baby weight.

She may have one of the most envied bodies on the planet, but shapely Kim Kardashian is the first to admit she has her fair share of body insecurities. “It’s a constant struggle,” Kim, 32, has lamented of her efforts to keep her famous curves tight and toned. “My thighs are jiggly and I have cellulite.”

Now that she’s 14 weeks pregnant, Kim knows her weight war will only get harder – especially as the cravings have hit! “She’s already gained about 4kg thanks to cravings for chocolate and ice-cream,” a friend tells Closer magazine. “She’s said that she can barely contain her chest as she’s already gone up a cup size. She’s feeling as if she’s bursting out of her clothes.”

Her boyfriend, rapper Kanye West, 35, insists he loves her curves – but before she found out she was pregnant, Kim confesses she was already trying to shift the 11kg of “love junk” she’d gained in eight months of dating him. “I’m hoping to slim down, I’m not afraid to say it,” she told Life & Style magazine in October. “Everyone goes up and down in whatever that comfortable relationship phase is where you like to eat out. Now it’s time to get it together.”

After seeing how quickly her body can get out of control if she succumbs to her cravings, Kim is bringing out the big guns. She has signed up Hollywood personal-training heavyweight Tracy Anderson to keep her body in shape. “Kim has signed up to two months worth of cardio classes, and she’ll be doing yoga and Pilates as her pregnancy gets into later stages,” a friend tells Heat magazine. “She doesn’t see pregnancy as an excuse for letting go.”
