Former "Laguna Beach" star Kristin Cavallari is opening up about her past experiences with extreme dieting. The Kristin Cavallari Reflects On Extreme Diet Measures first appeared on The Blast

Kristin Cavallari remains one of the most talked-about reality stars thanks to her stints on “Laguna Beach” and, more recently, “Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour.” Recently, the 39-year-old reflected on life in her 20s, vulnerably revealing that she had at least some form of an eating disorder.

Kristin Cavallari Opens Up About Having ‘A Form Of An Eating Disorder’

Cavallari took to her “Let’s Be Honest” podcast in June 2026 to reflect on her dieting history, revealing that she used to be obsessed with food yet still stressed about staying slim. She said, “I was obsessed with food. I was obsessed with it!”

The mom of three continued, “I was obsessed with my weight. I would guilt myself all day, every day, and it was such a horrible way to live.”

She then reflected on her life today, proclaiming, “To see where I’ve gotten today with real freedom around food, it makes me so happy, and I’m so proud. All I wanna do is help other people who have experienced a similar situation.”

Kristin Went Into Detail About The Diets From Her 20s

As the podcast episode continued, Cavalleri shed more light on her past eating habits. Noting that despite her being “obsessed” with food, she’d often go without it. According to her, “Not in a way where I was never eating, I was just eating salads with chicken and nothing else in it.”

She continued, “Really bland and basic food, and really being hyper aware of what I was putting in my body. But then what I would do is I would drink on the weekends, and I would binge eat, so I guess that is an eating disorder.” Cavallari added, “Not trying to minimize it! I guess that is an eating disorder. This is the first time that I’m like, ‘Maybe it was.'”

After that, she described her experience, saying that she was on the “spectrum” of eating disorders, adding, “I think [it’s] really common for women because of our society.”

The ‘Laguna Beach’ Alum Previously Opened Up About Carbs

Cavallari’s most recent comments aren’t the only recent example of the reality television icon opening up about her past struggles with food. She spoke to Bustle in 2024, revealing that she’d avoided carbs in the past.

She told the outlet, “I’m eating the most carbs I ever have.” Cavallari continued, “There was a period of my life where I would not go near a carb. I was even afraid of carrots for a while because I was doing keto coupled with intermittent fasting, and I actually think it messed up my metabolism, and it took me a year to stabilize.”

She added, “Now this freedom with food has been really nice.” At the time, the television personality stated that she was in “the best shape” of her life after developing a more balanced approach to her carb intake.

Cavallari Recently Made Her Miami Swim Week Debut

Cavallari launched her jewelry and lifestyle brand Uncommon James in 2017. Since then, the company has become quite successful, with Cavallari herself making her debut at this year’s Miami Swim Week with her collaboration with Resa. According to PEOPLE, she wore several pieces of jewelry from the company, including necklaces, bracelets, and rings.

Regarding the rest of her attire, she wore a snakeskin-print bikini along with a matching sarong skirt. After her strut down the runway in Miami, she returned to the stage wearing a fitted leopard-print dress, this time joined by Resa designer Suzanne Marchese, in order to give a final wave to the crowd.

Kristin Recently Opened Up About Dating

Cavallari finalized her divorce from NFL alum Jay Cutler in 2022 after almost seven years of marriage. Since then, she’s been in a handful of relationships and opened up about a new guy she was dating in December 2025. Her revelation came after a person reached out to her “Let’s Be Honest” podcast, asking how to handle men who don’t can’t communicate frequently enough.

She shared her experience, saying, “This guy in L.A. that I am dating, he’s in L.A., I’m in Nashville, and he’s busy, I’m busy. We do not really have a texting relationship. There is a text once in a blue moon, and there’ll be a little back and forth, but not.”

Cavallari then said that the man she was dating would call on occasion, but that weeks can go by and she “won’t hear from him.” She added, “And by the way, I’m not reaching out to him either because life is busy and I think we wanna date someone who has something going on, who is busy, where they actually can’t text you all day, and they can’t call you every day.”
