Locked in a race with herself, Kim Kardashian tweeted that she was running #OnTheTreadmillRightNOW in an attempt to slim down her body to what she called her “skinny days,” before she gave birth to a 4 pound, 15 ounce girl, when she could still shrink wrap herself into this skin-tight leotard/dress:

Kardashian tweeted the picture of herself, circa 2010, along with the unforgiving caption, “Throwback to a few years ago [#SkinnyDays](https://twitter.com/hashtag/SkinnyDays?src=hash) [#OnTheTreadmillRightNOW](https://twitter.com/hashtag/OnTheTreadmillRightNOW?src=hash).”

Her followers responded with a mixture of disbelief (“are you kidding me?), sudden pangs of insecurity (“If she’s currently fat, than idek what tf I am”) and shameless [marketing](https://twitter.com/EMERGINFASHIONZ/status/489399321385644032) (“Get Your Dress $32.99 Sizes S-2XL”).

Kardashian’s post-baby body dilemma began little more than a year ago on June 15, with the birth of a baby girl and the subsequent public [scrutiny](http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-body/pictures/kim-kardashians-post-baby-bikini-body-photos-20131712/34614?utm%5Fsource=yahoocelebrity&utm%5Fmedium=referral) of her body in a two-piece swimsuit five months later.


## Transcript

>> Kim Kardashian is ready for more kids. The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star called in to Ryan Seacrest's radio show Tuesday and confessed she loves being a mom to 8- month- old North, something she never thought she would say.

>> I love my daughter so much, and I know what it was like to grow up with siblings.

>> Right.

>> So I definitely want to have more, but I'm definitely, I'm not going the route my mom did.

>> Yeah.

>> You're right.

>> She is crazy.

>> The star said she'll have 3 kids tops but is not looking forward to another pregnancy. She told Ellen DeGeneres last month, she wouldn't wish that on anyone.

>> It's all worth it in the end--

>> Uh huh.

>> so I would definitely suffer through that, but pregnancy was not a good experience for me--

>> Yeah.

>> at all.

>> I kind of-- you know, women who say that it's a beautiful thing, I would think a few--

>> They are lying.

>> But who can blame the new mom for wanting more. She's head over heels for her little girl.

>> She is honestly the sweetest little girl.

>> Let's show that picture.

>> She really is.

>> Oh, look at that.

>> She is so sweet. She never cries.

>> Yeah.

>> She is a perfect little angel.

>> Yeah.

>> Before any more kids come along, we know Kim and fiancée, Kanye West, will tie the knot sometime this summer in Paris. They got engaged last October. Thanks for watching. I'm Brice Sander.
