WWE Star Opens Up About Pressure To Be Fit

WWE

A WWE star has opened up about the pressure she’s felt in the past to stay fit and how she feels about her body now.

WWE star Carmella has made her return to WWE and immediately hit the ground running!

In her return bout, Carmella won a slot in the Elimination Chamber match to determine who was next to face Bianca Belair for the WWE Raw Women’s Championship.

Recently she spoke to Yahoo Life about the pressure she has put on herself in the past to stay fit and what has changed for her this time around.

Carmella said:

“There’s a lot of pressure to look your best and be fit and healthy, and I think I was sort of doing it more in an unhealthy way. When I look back, I realize I was just so strict with my diet and restricted myself from eating anything and everything that wasn’t vegetables, fruit and lean meats, and that’s just sort of how I lived my life.”

“I look back and I kind of laugh at it because at the point I’m at now I do it for all the right reasons and not because I want people to perceive me a certain way. At this point in my life, I never weigh myself anymore. I do not care about that.

“I’ve finally gotten to a point where I don’t want to restrict my diet. I don’t want to tell myself I can’t have something. And I feel like now this is the best I’ve ever looked and the best I’ve ever felt because I just am doing what’s right for me and eating intuitively.”

Carmella’s real life husband Corey Graves has recently reminded fans that not only is he cleared to wrestle, he would be more than happy to tag team with his wife.
