Courtney Thorne-Smith talks body image
November 3, 2007

According to Jim actress Courtney Thorne-Smith recently talked to USA Today about how pregnancy has changed how she sees her body. Courtney, 39, is expecting her first child with her husband Roger Fishman at the end of this year.
How has your first pregnancy affected your body image?
I just feel amazing. As I’m talking to you, I have my hand on my belly, and the baby’s kicking. It’s this feeling of, “OK, this is what my body’s for.” I want to apologize to my body for all the years I was mean to it.
What do you want to teach your child about a healthy body image?
Luckily, at this point I’ll be able to teach by example. Children learn what they live, and I’m in such a good place now. I dealt with my compulsive exercise years ago. I do believe I was only able to get pregnant because I dealt with my issues. This is such a gift.
How has being pregnant changed the way you see your body? Has it helped or hurt your self-esteem?
