Throughout Janelle Brown’s tenure on TLC’s Sister Wives, viewers have seen her struggle with her weight.
During season 3 of the reality TV show, Janelle hit the gym with the other wives of her then-husband Kody Brown: Meri Brown, Christine Brown and Robyn Brown. (Janelle, Christine and Meri have all since ended their respective spiritual marriages to Kody.)
“I remember when my kids were little, watching the weight creep up, creep up, creep up but I felt so powerless to stop it,” Janelle admitted during an October 2011 episode, detailing her diet woes. “I was mortified [to share my weight with the other wives] because I never told anybody, including Kody, how much I weigh.”
She continued at the time: “You know, my physical appearance has always been my Achilles heel. I mean, I know I’m smart, I know I’m a good employee [and] I know I’m good at everything else, but my physical appearance … to have [my weight] so blatantly broadcast was very disturbing for me.”
