00:00 I just, I wanted to look good, not just for myself,
00:02 but also for my fans and for all the people
00:04 watching the show.
00:05 I don't want people to watch and be like,
00:06 wait, this isn't the Chanel I love.
00:07 You know what I mean?
00:08 - We're gonna see that on the show,
00:09 you adjusting to new parenthood.
00:11 - Yes. - Absolutely.
00:12 - What would you say was the hardest adjustment?
00:13 'Cause you know, postpartum hits you
00:15 like a brick sometimes.
00:17 - Well, definitely, yeah, the body changes.
00:19 You know, I gained a lot of weight.
00:22 My knees were hurting so bad,
00:24 but it's been a long struggle back to get my body back.
00:28 And you'll see that on the show as well,
00:30 I will be honest, 'cause I believe
00:33 and be honest about the things.
00:33 I had liposuction.
00:35 It was the scariest, hardest thing I've ever went through.
00:38 - Worse than childbirth.
00:39 - It was, well, I had a C-section too,
00:41 so it was even worse than that.
00:43 It was a lot.
00:43 And I was like, dang, I was like,
00:44 I wish some of these girls who did this
00:46 like put it out there more,
00:47 because I didn't know how hard it was.
00:49 I will say though that it was a great jumpstart
00:51 to get back to where I was.
00:53 - Do you feel pressure to bounce back
00:54 to where you were at all?
00:55 - A little bit, just because obviously
00:57 I'm getting into doing a whole new show
00:59 and I knew I was gonna be back on camera so soon.
01:01 So I just, I wanted to look good,
01:03 not just for myself, but also for my fans
01:05 and for all the people watching the show.
01:07 I don't want people to watch and be like,
01:07 "Wait, this isn't the Chanel I love."
01:09 You know what I mean?
01:10 - Well, I think you look fantastic.
01:11 Are you back to where that you wanna be?
01:13 - I am happy where I'm at.
01:15 I'm still trying to get a little skinnier
01:17 to fit in a few clothes in my closet
01:19 that I cannot get back into.
01:20 So we'll see if I get there perfect.
01:22 And I'm sure you think that she looks absolutely perfect.
01:24 - Yeah, I mean, it's something that a man
01:26 could just never understand,
01:28 like having your body change like that and all that.
01:30 So, you know, I feel like she's doing a great job.
