Katie Holmes Explains Weight Loss
February 16, 2009 by Julie Bonner
Everyone has been talking about the fact that Katie Holmes looks noticeably thinner these days. Of course, you have to balance that with the fact that everyone thinks she’s pregnant too. Geez, this girl can’t win with the press!
It is obvious if you compare pictures of Katie from a year ago, to now, that she has lost weight. But the question is why? Is she sick? Is she stressed?
Well, Katie has set the record straight about her thinner frame. She says it’s because of her stint on Broadway when she starred in “All My Sons”.
“My metabolism was in full gear the whole time,” she tells Hello! “I lose weight fast when I’m working so hard. It doesn’t matter how much I eat, I just get thin.”
Katie doesn’t really mind too much though. She says, “It’s not the worst problem in the word to have, though, now is it?”
She is so right. Katie seems to be happy in her own skin, no matter what size she is and she has to be. If Katie were to put on 10 pounds right now, the media would say “Breaking News! Katie is fat. She’s using food as comfort because of her horrible marriage to Tom Cruise!” Like I said, she can’t win.

I don’t believe this article. She was seen toting around a calorie-burning energy drink, which doesn’t jibe with this account. I think I’ll believe my eyes on this one. I don’t doubt that she didn’t have as much time to eat because she was working more, but why would she feel the need to drink something that burns calories, if it doesn’t matter what she eats. Not blaming her for this article, because I doubt she had anything to do with it, but it’s bogus.
what do you mean tyler that she had nothing to do with this article? She had a lot to do with this article as she is going on the record in it regarding her extreme thinness. She is quoted in the magazine. Are we all to assume now that the Celcious diet drink was the body guards? I believe that the diet drink was hers and that she has an eating disorder.
I don’t believe this article either , Hello always make up interviews.
i was wondering the same thing about the celcius calorie burning drink…doesn’t make sense. i bet she is always trying to stay extra thin so she doesn’t look too huge around tiny tom.. i totally understand, i’m tall too and i used to have a smaller boyfriend and it was always on my mind to be extra thin so i didn’t feel so “huge” around him because he was so thin and had a smaller frame himself. it was actually kind of stressful. blah.
I agree with these posts. She doesnt look like someone who is naturally thin, like a Nicole Kidman. I think she has to work at it too.
If it’s so true that her metabolism kicks in and she loses weight when she works hard than why wasn’t she so thin back when she did Dawson’s Creek? I know it’s not as hard as doing Broadway but it’s still WORK. Sorry, not buying it!
maybe she came out with this story in response to media flak over her Scientology detox diet that she underwent after her run on Broadway ended. Could be she and TC wanted to quiet the chatter regarding her niacin rundown after AMS wrapped up. A fast metabolism is alot less controversial than a detox-rundown.
I believe she starved herself in order to get as thin as she could for the Miu Miu shoot.
Judging by different things she lets slip in her interviews , I think that Katie is a stress bucket and a bit of a worrier, in the Vanity Fair interview when they showed Suri, she said that things that the media say about her husband and family eat at her, especially when they say things about Tom,which are lies, she finds them very hurtful and heartbreaking, so this girl must live with a lot of inner turmoil, and then in the Times interview, she said when doing the play she could’nt look at peoples faces for fear of being judged. Well she is judged , disected , and talked about and there are people out there who say the meanest things about them, especially anything written about her child must be especially hurtful. She also said that she likes to know what is out there about them, that was in 2006 , well a lot more was said since then. Must admit an eating dissorder has passed through my mind as well, she really needs to put on weight.
Sorry, but as Oprah would say “I’m not buying” Katie’s excuse. If she’s that busy and that worried that she appears THAT thin, she needs to rethink her stress and activity levels. I’m a working Mom and I can maintain a normal weight. Katie was never this thin in the past. An eating disorder passed thru my mind as well. From what I gather people get those when they can’t control the outside influences in their lives so they attempt to control the one thing they can….their weight. I pray that’s not the case with Katie. Sometimes people SEEM to have it all, but secretly are very unhappy. Not saying thats the case with Katie – I don’t know. But I do know something about her statements doesn’t ring true considering the weight loss drink and her previous history. JMO….
It takes a reduction 3,500 to lose one pound. She lost many during the span of a few months. That means not eating.
Oops, 3500 calories.
