Back in action!
Karolina Kurkova, supermodel and Victoria’s Secret Angel, has returned to the red carpet, well recovered from her surgery. Last night, at the amfAR Gala in New York, she showed her glory days are back, wearing a midnight blue dress fit for an olympian godess.
Karolina’s surgery was due to thyroid issues that began to upset her a few years ago. Her overactive thyroid brought her extra 30 pounds and menopause symptoms at the age of 24. Other unpleasant side-effects came along too. In a recent interview, the model spoke about her condition: “I was 24 and going through menopause – that was one of my side-effects. I thought I was going crazy. I was having panic attacks every minute and I didn’t know what was happening, because I’ve been a healthy person. I’ve exercised all my life. I’ve always eaten well and taken care of myself”.
At the moment, the 27-year-old woman has clearly lost all the weight she’s gained and looks completely recovered from whatever health problem she was through. Her slender frame is also creating a buzz of a possible exagerated weight loss. The Daily Mail asked nutricionist Helen Money her opinion on this subject: “Karolina does appear to have lost weight but to me it looks like her muscle tone has improved. She may have been working out more (or perhaps she changed her style of excising). It does sound like she uses her calories wisely – spends them on foods high in essential vitamins and minerals rather than junk food. Her eyes and skin reflect this”. So, even nutritionally approved, Karolina Kurkova is healthy, in great physical shape and looks like she’s at a very good stage in life!
