Kate Gosselin is thinner and fitter than ever lately, thanks to an organic diet and daily five-mile runs.
Gosselin, who's debuting her new show, Kate Plus 8, on TLC July 11, insists she's not starving herself, nor has she had plastic surgery, contrary to tabloid reports.
"I'm not on some crash diet," Kate told ET. "I eat healthy, and I started running outside."
Gosselin, who used to run indoors on her treadmill daily, says jogging outside is hard but worth it because she's seeing results.
"Every day I'm convinced I can't do it when I'm running down my driveway, and every day I say, 'Nope, you did it yesterday, you can do it today," she says.
'I RUN 5 MILES EVERY DAY'
The newly single Kate, who has undergone a dramatic transformation since becoming a reality TV star in 2008, says being fit is a top priority.
"I would say [I lost] six pounds in two weeks," says Kate, who also dropped one dress size. "I made a commitment to myself that I'm always going to be fit."
Gosselin says running helps her both physically and emotionally.
"I run to get away," she says. "My mind wanders and I don't know where I am or where it is but I get lost in a 'zone.' I enjoy the pain and accomplishment of running five miles up and down hills each day."
Adds Kate: "I enjoy the fact that if I run, I see results pretty quickly. Body changes happen. and it makes me want to run again tomorrow. I enjoy the fact that my kids see me running because they want to run and be healthy, too!"
'I'M LONELY'
Despite being a busy mom, Gosselin pampers herself by getting manicures, massages, tanning and getting her hair styled.
"I'm letting [my hair] grow out," says Kate, who recently took her $7,000 hair extensions out. "I'm actually looking forward to getting rid of them and having my own hair again."
But having 8 adorable children and a busy career isn't enough. "It's lonely to sit at home at night, have a glass of wine by myself after the kids are in bed -- I'm definitely lonely," she says. "I'm not convinced there's anybody out there who can handle me and my situation, but if there is, I'll know it right away."

She is right. Getting away for a little while every day is good for you, and it helps you be a good mother.
Good for Kate. Looking forward to her new show
Kate G- What a phony baloney -- I recall her saying that the "kids" were here highest priority ? It was all for the "kids" sounds like shes running for office ..running get it..
Anyway Im overly putrified by her lip service followed by actions that contradict what came from her lips . Lets see her husband who may not be "perfect" at least wanted to put an end to using the kids for money and exposing thier tender youth to the WORLD for all to see , Kate then put the Kybosh on that and dumped that idea and now is restarting the show for her own selfish means $$$$. She tried everything else and crashed now its the kids again- sickening , I will never watch it
I agree with you! Ohh and becca ------if i was a man i would run like hell in the opposite direction if ole LordieB came looking my way------------no way in hell---not with a ten foot pole ...!! Loook what she has done to Jon---emasulated *ok i cant spell* ...
Kate G. is looking for a man. End of story.
kate - this woman has a spine ! i respect her and i admire her. she is beautiful, intelligent admirable. she has put discipline in the household, otherwise the 2 x 9-yr old would have become bratty (they show THAT tendency).
congrats for dumping that a**, Jon
PS - to the earlier poster who wrote "putrified", maybe you meant "petrified" !!! or maybe you mean that you are just putrid (meaning "rotten") yourself. one thing is for sure: you are illiterate !! learn some english, for God's sake !!
Kate is a fine mature beautiful no nonsense woman worthy of good things...
Kate, if you read this try walking and running backwards too for your antagonistic muscles and a strong hamstrings, butt, calves and ankles
