The television personality continued, "The scale was sort of a gauge for me that I was heading in the right direction. And it was never about ‘I have to lose this amount,’ it’s really about how I feel,” the Food Network staple admitted. “I feel great, I have, I feel strong. Even when I was thinner, I don’t think I ever have been a squatter or a lunger before. Not since my ballet days.”

Although Drummond has gotten healthier, she in no way sworn off the foods that bring her joy. “It changes your whole outlook just having the routine of exercise in your day and, you know, I still eat the foods that I cook my family. I still eat cake. I just eat a Rhode Island-sized piece instead of a Texas-sized piece," The Pioneer Woman Cooks author stated.

As Drummond excelled in her health and wellness, her 25 year marriage to Ladd Drummond apparently went through a bit of a rough patch.
