Kevin Federline says being called K-Fat helped him lose weight. Kevin Federline was slim and quasi-attractive when he sweeped Britney Spears off her feet. When the relationship ended he quickly spiraled into a food-obsessed binge and piled on a massive amount of weight.

more K-Fat after the hop…

K-Fed was close-mouthed about the weight gain until recently. He finally opened up to ET.com and said:

“I looked pregnant,” he tells Entertainment Tonight in an interview scheduled to air Thursday night. “It was upsetting. It’s [usually] easy for me to brush stuff off of my shoulder. [But] when I see a pictures [of me] like that, and people are calling me ‘K- Fat,’ I had to do something about it.”

K-Fat joined Celebrity Fit Club and slimmed down.

“I loved to eat pizza and pasta,” Federline says, “so between not working out, and turning 30 years old, [the weight] started coming on real fast. I had my own mother telling me she’s worried about my health.”
