The country star is speaking out about her diet and fitness regimen.
Long before she was a country music superstar with her own fitness apparel range and brand-new fitness manual, Carrie Underwood was an Oklahoma farm girl competing on, and eventually winning, American Idol in 2005. But not even then-judge Simon Cowell’s notoriously sharp tongue could prepare her for the body-shaming comments aimed at her on online message boards.
While the singer tells the magazine that “I shouldn’t care what other people think about me,” the comments did make her acknowledge that her energy levels were low, and go-to meals like pasta and quesadillas were causing the longtime vegetarian to put on weight. Throwing herself into a new fitness regimen and meal plan thus became a way to shut down her critics while feeling better from the inside-out.
As she embarked on a tour with her fellow American Idol contestants, Underwood began counting calories and hitting the gym; “I was sleeping better, and I had more energy for our grueling schedule,” she says. But while she’s careful to avoid labeling her behavior as disordered eating, the mom of two admits sometimes going overboard by restricting her calorie intake to just 800 a day, causing energy dips and inevitable backslides.
