Gigi Hadid reveals struggle with thyroid
Supermodel Gigi Hadid recently revealed that she has been struggling with a thyroid condition since a few years now. This means that she needs to take extra care to maintain the fabulous body. She told Elle Magazine, “My metabolism actually changed like crazy this year. I have Hashimoto’s disease. It’s a thyroid disease, and it’s now been two years since I’ve been taking medication for it. So, for the (Victoria’s Secret) show, I didn’t want to lose any more weight, I just want to have muscles in the right places, and if my butt can get a little perkier, then that’s good.”
To stay in shape, Gigi boxes regularly, and maintains a strict and healthy diet. “I knew I needed to find something that gave me a coach, gave me a family, so that when I walk in, it’s like my big brothers. They’re like ‘what up!’ They don’t care about who I am. That’s what I needed, and they don’t care about what my body looks like. They care that I give a good punch, and that’s how I want to be judged. That’s what makes me proud of myself,” she shared, about boxing.
