. ShawnJohnson feared body image issues would reemerge during pregnancy: ‘I fell victim to very extreme ways of nutrition and working out’
Shawn Johnson first opened up to Oprah about struggling with body image issues at 16 years old, after becoming an international celebrity on the 2008 Olympic stage in Beijing and later competing on Dancing with the Stars. But over a decade after she succumbed to the constant pressure of being “thinner” and “lighter” to earn a gold medal and win America over, the former gymnast had worries about making sure that her body was ready for pregnancy.
However, while pushing her body to the extreme while going through puberty in front of the nation, Johnson didn’t realize what impact diet and exercise would have on her body in the future until she decided that it may soon be time to start a family. Still, starting a family proved to be difficult for Johnson and her husband Andrew East, as the couple revealed in October 2017 that she had suffered a miscarriage.Now, just over two years after sharing the tragic news, the East family has once again taken to their social media and YouTube channel to discuss Johnson’s current pregnancy. And even though the 27-year-old says that “pregnancy is a beautiful thing,” she admits that her changing body can still be challenging to come to terms with.
