Life in the spotlight has been tough forKim Zolciak-Biermann’s daughterAriana Biermann.
Biermann sobbed during frustrating prom dress fittings last March, as seen on Sunday night’s episode ofDon’t Be Tardy.But Zolciak-Biermann said since then, her daughter has lost a significant amount of weight.
“Ariana, now, she’s lost, like, 30 lbs.,” Zolciak-Biermann, 40,toldEntertainment Tonighton Saturday. “She works out at the gym every day. She’s itty-bitty tiny. She’s really kind of come into her own.”

But Biermann still struggles with her body image because she compares herself to her friends, her mom added.
“At the time, a lot of her friends are on the smaller side … they’re, like, a size negative-zero, 99 percent of her friends, so to her, she’s like, ‘I’m fat, and I’m this…’ and it’s just hard, and it’s heartbreaking,” she said.

And through living in the public eye, Biermann sees her negative thoughts reflected on social media.
Zolciak-Biermann said that she’s also honest with her kidsabout plastic surgery. Shehad a tummy tuck in 2015after giving birth to her now 4-year-old twins Kaia and Kane and developing a hernia, andshe reduced the size of her breast implants last yearbecause they were too “heavy.”
“I’m very open with my children on [her plastic surgery],” she said. “I amnotopen to any plastic surgery on my girls at this time. I tell them, you know, when you’re done having kids and all that good stuff, worry about all that stuff later on down the road, if that’s what you want to do, but you guys are beautiful and so young.”
