Actress Morgan Fairchild is crediting the keto diet with helping her lose weight.
The 70-year-old
Falcon Crest star, revealed her dramatic weight loss during an interview with
Closer Weekly, sharing she was looking for a diet after mold in her home caused her to gain weight.
Fairchild decided to try the popular keto diet, telling
Closer Weekly she has dropped thirty pounds since following the diet.
“You know it’s a very specific diet,” Fairchild revealed. “It’s not a hard diet, just very specific. If you cheat at all, you don’t lose the weight…but I’ve been very disciplined.”
Fairchild told
Closer she “just started dropping weight like crazy” after embarking on the keto diet, but told readers, “you do have to stick to the diet.”
Mold issues in the home caused Fairchild to gain weight suddenly. She also told
Closer the mold also led to bronchial issues.
“I went through this unfortunate thing where I had mold in my house and I blew up like a balloon,” Fairchild shared. “I had a lot of bronchial issues, which I knew were from the mold, but I had not realized the weight gain was from the mold.”
