Cali 'Housewives' Fight for Their Bodies
PopEater has the
exclusive first look at the
In Touch interview and photo shoot with the cast of Bravo's 'Real Housewives of Orange County,' where the women discussed body image and what they do to look their best, no matter what.
The 'Housewives' will go to great lengths for the sake of beauty -- whether working out for hours each day or even going under the knife. "You can't just let yourself go," said 31-year-old
Gretchen Rossi. "Everyone should do what they need to in order to feel hot!" But with the healthy competition between them, some still find things to be self-conscious about.
Exclusive photos from the In Touch pool shoot with the ladies after the jump.

Gretchen's happy to be the only implant-free housewife: "I get self-conscious about it, especially around these ladies with their big boobs!...I'm really glad I've never had it done. Botox is the most extreme thing I've done."
Alexis Bellino still gets self-conscious: "I'm still not comfortable with my body. My arms are too flabby, my butt needs more shape, and I'm three pounds over what I wanted to be for the shoot."
Tamra Barney says she "always feels fat": "I'm not a big eater. I pick at food...As you get older, it's hard to stay toned and that's been my biggest struggle."

Why are they getting rid of Gina? She was the only one that kept it real on this show.

Jeana is fat, the photo shoot would of been stressful for her to participate in- anyway, she's no longer a OC Housewife. As for Vicki, why wasn't she given an opportunity for a single photo shoot? lol because she too is heavy and old looking with pig snout. Tamra, isn't heavy BUT is ugly, tries too hard. Gret and new bombshell Alexis, both are HOT and with fantastic curves!!
