Simple Life Years she looked atleast a size 12/14 given she is 5’1 - 2003-2007:

Guessing a size based on :

Nicole Ritchie a size 12? Ha! Please.
She was probably a size 4 at her heaviest. She was known for being anorexic looking.

NP. She looks like she was a size 10-12 in the picture PP posted. And a 0-2 at her smallest.

No way. You clearly haven’t followed her career. She’s extremely petite. 110 probably made her look chubby in the face.

Some people have very small appetites. My mother is very underweight. My best friend is very underweight. My son is very underweight. None have anorexia. They like food, but just feel full very quickly.

I have a BMI of 19 at 44. I don't have a big appetite, but I do like cheese and chips, so I have to watch those two things.

But the people OP mentioned WERE very overweight.

I went from 135 to 265 and back and up, rollercoastering over the years. I also have two family members who gained their weight back post weight loss surgery and I’ve always been curious for those who are able to keep it off in Hollywood, what are they doing differently?

135 to 265 is a medical emergency. That weight gain is seriously not normal for 99% of the human population. And Inhave had 3 children and lost all the pregnancy weight in 2 weeks. Now I'm in menopause and still weigh the same amount as I did in my 20s. So one cannot blame pregnancy and/or menopause for that time of gain.

Nobody in great shape got there or stays there by walking a little each day.

Excuse me? I'm 5' 10" and have weighed about 135-137 all my adult life. Walking 3 to 4 mikes every day may not put you in the greatest shape (I used to work out at Crossfit) but it can sure keep the pounds off.

Unless you were significantly heavier as a teen, you’ve missed the point of the OP’s question.

It's because you untangle the emotions and history that led to your overeating and inactivity. It's never just because you love food too much. And it's also because you do it sustainably - without restriction and diets.

- maintained a weightloss for 10 years, naturally - no surgery, no diets, no calorie counting, no pills, etc.

There was that whole rumor that Rachel Zoe gave Richie stimulants to suppress her appetite.

3-4 miles per day is not "walking a little each day". That's a LOT of walking. To put that in perspective for you, that would take me, someone 5'4", at least three hours.

I walk for about four hours every day and I’m overweight. I need to lift heavy weights to lose but I haven’t had the energy lately.

PP here. I was heavier as a teen, if you think 35 lbs heavier counts.

Man, I would love to know how you did this. This is my issue but I can't seem to find the right help, and I desperately need it (not the PP but I went from 135 to 210 lbs in just a few years). I don't want to hijack this thread. Would you consider posting in the Diet & Exercise forum?

Completely irrelevant to this discussion, but thanks for sharing.

I’m talking about the picture of her on the car eating ice cream. She’s not 110 pounds there

Are you too young to remember or is this a trick question, like actually her weight was fine but people were cruel about it?

OP is acting like Nicole was overweight and has kept the weight off. Nicole seems like a tiny person in my opinion then and now. I have no idea why the original poster is pondering her maintaining her weight. Just seems incredibly toxic to post such a thing. Especially, when Nicole has battled addiction and an eating disorder.

I'm a walker, not a jogger or runner, and a moderately paced walk would get that done in under 2 hours.

This is not enough to keep celebrities slim.
