Lindsey Vonn Body Quotes

When asked about the Red Carpet, Lindsey says:

I’m like twice the size of anyone there, in both height and weight. I’m 5’10” but, I’m definitely quite a bit heavier than everyone else.

Despite her height being 5’10” and weighing in at 170 pounds, Lindsay feels:

Like the odd man out sometimes, but that’s even more reason to show girls you don’t have to be a size 2 to be beautiful. Any size is beautiful as long as you’re confident about your body.

Asked about her breakup with Tiger Woods, and how it’s affected her workout:

I think it’s just given me more time to spend on myself. That’s what happens with most breakups. You really look at yourself and figure out what makes you happy. I’m focusing on my job, my skiing, and I’ve been working really hard.

Asked about her ankle injury (she broke her ankle), Lindsey Vonn says:

When I got hurt it was honestly a blessing in disguise, because it gave me the opportunity to take a break. I’m a planner, so when I get injured, I need a plan and a timeline. We map out the next however many months, weeks, days, and figure out what needs to be done.

When Health Magazine asked if she’s ever experienced any body issues, Lindsey says:

Before I was 17, I was incredibly skinny. I was made fun of and called ‘chicken’ and ‘chicken wings.’ I was super tall and probably weighed 30 pounds less than I do now.

About Lindsey’s weight gain, which came after her teenage years, she says:

I gained more than 30 pounds of weight because my metabolism slowed down. I’m normal size, but when I started to do fashion shoots, I felt too big.
