Cheryl Burke Blames Birth Control for Recent Weight Gain
Fans of Dancing with the Stars may have noticed a bit of a weight gain from one of their favorite stars, Cheryl Burke this past season. The celeb was highly publicized because of her curvier figure and says it was very hard to deal with. She also says the reason for her weight gain was birth control pills.
“I decided over the summer to stop taking birth control pills. I did it thinking that I was going to lose more weight for the season. But it actually did the opposite. It made me gain weight.”
While Cheryl says the constant scrutiny was unnerving, she’s not an emotional eater.
“If anything, when I am stressed or emotional, I don’t eat.”
“At the end of the day, I really love to dance. It makes me want to go out there and just shut everyone up.”
Her new body sure wasn’t discouraging to her new man, 21 year old Abercrombie & Fitch model Maxwell Zagorski. Cheryl says,
“He’s 21 going on 30. He lives in New York, but that’s good. Because when I’m here in Los Angeles doing the show, I need my space.”
