The 31-year-old socialite, who is famous for being famous, told Life & Style magazine: "I’m hoping to slim down a little bit, and I’m not afraid to say it. I think everyone goes up and down in whatever that comfortable love relationship phase is where you like to eat out, but now it’s time to get it together again."

It’s not the first time the star of “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” has talked about getting fit again. The avid tweeter has been letting her followers know that she was hitting the gym again.

She tweeted on Saturday, “Ready to workout,” along with an Instagram picture of herself.

A few days prior she posted another tweeted bringing attention to the fact that she was working out, “Up early just finished an amazing workout today with @Gunnar! Have a good day tweeps!”

Then most recently she wrote, “Since I started QuickTrim again a few weeks ago, I'm down 6 lbs!!! Yay best feeling. I was getting discouraged but now I'm so motivated!”

The Kardashians are notorious for publicity-seeking, and it wouldn’t be surprising if she purposely put on some extra pounds just so she could lose it to promote QuickTrim, a product she gets paid to endorse.

Kardashian and her sisters Khloe and Kourtney are currently involved in a $5 million class action lawsuit that alleges they and the makers of the diet pills QuickTrim fasley sold the effectiveness of the product for weight loss.

It’s not even certain if the pills are safe to take. QuickTrim products are supposed to "detoxify and clean" the body by getting rid of extra water weight, according to the company.

But there is no scientific evidence to back up the QuickTrim’s claims and worse, the Huffington Post reported that recent studies show the product might even be harmful.
