Trista: I Want To Fit Into My Skinny Jeans
Three months after the birth of her son, former Bachelor star Trista Sutter, 35, tells Us she’s on a mission to lose the last of the 30 pounds she gained during pregnancy.
“I’m definitely not pleased when I look in the mirror,” admits the 5-foot-2 star, who now wears a size 4 and weighs 116 pounds, but aspires to surpass her prebaby physique and get down to 106 pounds. “When I fit into my size 26 Hudson jeans, then I’ll be happy.”
Sutter shares her post-baby body issues with Us and how husband Ryan, 33, is helping her get down to her goal weight.
How are you feeling about your body?
“My friend said that when I came home from the hospital, I’d be back in my old jeans. Fifteen pounds did fall off immediately, but the fact that it’s been three months and I’m still not in them is a bummer.”
What bothers you the most?
“My belly. It has a layer of fat, which, of course, your body has to put on, but it’s blubbery and I hate it. I want to be able to go bathing suit shopping for a vacation and not feel totally disgusted…I just don’t feel good in a lot of my clothes.”
Does Ryan help?
If I eat something that I shouldn’t, Ryan shakes his finger at me and says, ‘Uh, uh, uh!’ He’s been awesome, 100 percent supportive. He watches Max when I go to the gym and is constantly saying that I look great. But when you don’t feel good about yourself, you don’t feel like you want to be intimate. I want to feel, and look, sexy again for him. Even though he is being nice and saying he’s still attracted to me, I want to feel like he’s telling me the truth and not just saying it because he’s a good husband.”

Wow.. that seems extreme. Im 5 foot 2 and weigh a 116lbs. I guess according to her I must be a fatty.

Ash, You are fine. She is the one that sounds CRAZY! I was reading this and shaking my head.
October 24th, 2007 at 7:35 am
Yes, that’s a little extreme. No one likes fat, but she weighs nothing!
October 24th, 2007 at 7:41 am
O good lord, she’s whining in a magazine about being 116 instead of 106? And saying how it’s amazing how her husband is telling her she can’t eat food? That is sickening, no wonder so many girls have such horribly distorted body images. You just had a baby lady, you will gain weight and it is was for the good of your child; it is certainly not disgusting!

I am so glad to read the other responses that are already here! This IS ridiculous and I can’t believe that US Magazine put her on the cover…3 months after having a child…saying she’s not gonna be happy until she fits into her skinny jeans(forget the fact that she has a beautiful child and husband). This is exactly why I let my US Magazine subscription go. I am so over this crap!

Her friend who said she’d be back in her pre-pregnancy jeans was a LIAR.

She is a size 4 and “not pleased” when she looks in the mirror? “She’s on a mission to lose the last of the 30 pounds she gained during pregnancy…” and “…admits the 5-foot-2 star, who now wears a size 4 and weighs 116 pounds…”
Wouldn’t that put her at wanting to be 86 pounds, not the 106 like it says? Or has she already lost 20 of the 30 pounds and only has TEN left to lose?

i was wondering about that too blondey! this article is ridiculous and trista is ridiculous. she should be happy she has a adorable son who unfortunately is going to have nutbags for parents!!!
October 24th, 2007 at 8:13 am
Why is she still getting attention???
Somebody please, please tell her that her 15 minutes is UP!!
She is so annoying

Ya know, I’m 5′9 and weigh 157. I’ve had two kids. I weighed 130 before the first child, went to 181. Never lost the last 25 pounds. I could care less. My husband loves me for me, not for how I look in a bathing suit. It’s a shame that she feels this way about herself. I think she looks great but if someone doesn’t feel it, they won’t believe it I suppose.
October 24th, 2007 at 8:28 am
She needs to stop! My baby is 5 months old and I still haven’t lost the last 15 lbs, it’s a b*tch. Just deal with it. She sounds hella dumb. Just enjoy being a new parent and everything will fall into place in due time.
October 24th, 2007 at 8:29 am
she’s wearing a size 4 jean and her husband is wagging his finger at her over non-no foods? Why do we have to hear about these shallow nobodys?
October 24th, 2007 at 8:31 am
It says 12 comments but I only see 2!!
October 24th, 2007 at 8:40 am
If I wore a size 4 and my husband waved a finger at me and said, “uh, uh, uh” I’d break it in half and then kick him out of the house!
October 24th, 2007 at 8:47 am
Yes, it seriously is disgusting. To say she is embarassed to wear a swimsuit? Wtf… It is so irresponsible for her to speak like that to a magazine thats prime audience is women and girls. Someone needs to get a clue.
October 24th, 2007 at 8:52 am
Wow, that is ridiculous. And shallow. She just had a baby, she should be proud of her body for being able to accomplish that alone… I read an old US Weekly about how she struggled to have children in the first place… she is wacked if this is now her main concern.
October 24th, 2007 at 9:15 am
OH, BOO HOO!
October 24th, 2007 at 9:18 am
Dear Lord!!!will someone tell her to go away and quit milking the cash cow of that stupid reality show she was on!!!
No one cares!!!! She was the first one voted off on Dancing With The Stars!!! I repeat, NO ONE CARES!!!!!!!
October 24th, 2007 at 9:25 am
WHY DO WE HAVE TO HEAR ABOUT THIS NOBODIES?!? This bitch is severly fuc*ed in the head if she thinks 5′2 116 is fat. So is her husband for encouraging this behavior. I cannot stand these reality t.v. whores who OVER work their 15 minutes of fame. The next time we hear about these 2 as*holes is when they get a divorce. She is a freakin LOSER.
October 24th, 2007 at 10:22 am
WTF? “OMG I wear a size FOUR! I’m soooooo FAT!” I can’t believe this biotch has the audacity to come out and bitch about being a size 4 and ONLY 116 lbs. I haven’t weighed that since I was in like, 9th grade, and I’m not fat! I had my first baby a little over four months ago and I still have 15 lbs to lose. I’m only 6 lbs heavier than I’ve ever been, so technically I have 6 to lose to be back to “normal”. But to make myself happy I want to lose 15 and be back to 145 (at 5 ft 6 in tall), when I looked great and still had an hourglass figure. I can’t believe that people like this idiot come out like that. She should be ashamed of herself and her husband should be too. He sounds like an ass.

Oh, shut the f*ck up Trista!
October 24th, 2007 at 11:46 am
Why would People even publish an article like this? Look at her! She’s completely healthy the way she is! This is a ridiculous message to send to people, that being 106 pounds at that height is somehow “healthy”. Wearing a size 0 isn’t normal for like 90% of the female population.
Listen, how about letting your body nourish the baby for a year or so? That’s what all the extra fat is for! Dumb bitch.
I think if I was a size 4 and I wanted to starve myself into a 0, my husband would force-feed me cheeseburgers, not admonish me like a four-year-old. But that’s why I love him.
October 24th, 2007 at 11:57 am
what a ridiculous, terrible message this mag is sending. these people make me sick!
October 24th, 2007 at 12:51 pm
Bet she wished she’d kept her gob shut….

That’s lame. No wonder so many women have a negative body image. I agree with the posted who wondered why People even ran this story.
October 24th, 2007 at 3:35 pm
puuuuuuuuuuuuuuke!!! I feel sick after reading this. What’s her IQ? She should not be allowed to speak public. or private. she should be on MUTE.
October 24th, 2007 at 6:39 pm
This is so ridiculous! She has NOTHING to complain about, her weight is FINE if not enviable! And her husband sounds like a piece of work, too. How dare he ‘uh uh uh’ her- she calls that “supportive”? What shallow idiots, both of them. They need to go away now.
October 24th, 2007 at 8:05 pm
idiot.

I dont know who this Trisha girl is cause Im not from the US, but I dont know why everybody’s hating on her for saying she wants to get back to her old weight… Its one thing to be grateful for the child she gave birth to, and another thing to want to be back in her old skin. The one doesnt exclude the other. Her body was probably in a certain (skinny) state for a long time before the pregnancy, so you cant blame her for again wanting to be in the state she was used to when its finally not unsensible (as getting back in shape is unlikely to be harmful for the newborn, and actually is good for the mother’s health physically aswell as psychologically –> endorfine). Weighing 106 pounds may seem unhealthy to you all but at 5′2 ft and depening on her bone structure (and I can see in the picture that she is very small framed) it doesnt have to be unhealthy at all.
