Khloe Kardashian: I'm "Massive" Next To Sisters

It's not easy being the "biggest" Kardashian sister.

In the new issue of Us Weekly, out Wednesday, Khloe Kardashian admits red carpet events with older sibs Kim and Kourtney can take their toll on her self esteem.

"They are 5-foot and 5-foot-2, so I look massive next to them," Khloe, who is 5-foot-10, tells Us. "Everyone expects me to be 9 feet tall and weigh 200 pounds [when they meet me]."

26-year-old Khloe -- whose mom Kris Jenner even criticized her weight in a recent episode of Khloe and Lamar - has "struggled with her weight since she was 8 years old," a family friend tells Us. "She was always taller and developed much broader shoulders than her petite sisters."

And the E! reality star, happily married to basketball star Lamar Odom for over a year, says she first gained weight following Kris' divorce from her late father, famed OJ Simpson trial attorney Robert Kardashian Sr.

"My brother [Rob] and I were always heavy. They gave us food to keep us comforted. All we did was eat crap," she recalls.

Classmates and even her mom's friends noticed that Khloe's older sisters Kim, 30, and Kourtney, 32, stayed skinny despite the family turmoil. "I had older women tell me, 'You should really work out,'" she explains. "It really got to me."

Her initial response? A teenaged Khloe hit the gym, working out three times a day and eating tiny meals. She went from a size 12 to 0.

"I started to get a positive response from people when I was losing weight," she admits.

Kris Jenner Slams Khloe for Gaining Weight

On Sunday's Khloe & Lamar, Khloe Kardashian, 26, comes under fire from her mom, Kris Jenner, after she packs on a few extra pounds.

As Jenner sees it, her daughter's weight gain makes her a less than ideal spokeswoman for the Kardashians' Quicktrim diet supplement. Jenner also accuses Kardashian of sabotaging the brand.

"You don't care and it's very very upsetting to me because I've worked so hard at creating what I think is a great deal for you girls and you're not pulling your end of the weight," Jenner says in a sneak preview of Sunday's all-new episode. "I feel like you could not chat about how many cookies you're eating in between meals [to the media]..."

Kardashian, on the other hand, feels torn as she struggles to maintain a healthy weight in an effort to conceive her first child with husband Lamar Odom.

"To tell me I'm ruining a whole brand because of my weight gain makes me feel like s--t. Get over yourself. You're such a f--king raging lunatic and you're so evil," she snipes to Jenner. "I'm too f--king fat, too f--king that. Do you want me to get pregnant? Do you want me to lose weight? You tell me you want me to have a baby every second, but I can't be on some crazy diet. I just don't get what you want out of me!"

The Kardashians: "We Work 25 Hours a Day"

Make no mistake: The Kardashians didn't earn $65 million last year by sitting on their famous derrieres.

"It's annoying when I hear, 'What do your girls do?' Well, first of all, all of my daughters have jobs. They are fashion stylists and designers; they own a chain of stores. They had the stores before they had the show," matriarch Kris Jenner, 55, tells the May issue of Redbook. "And my kids worked from the time they were 13 years old. So to me, that's a huge misconception that the girls don't work. They work 25 hours a day."

As for criticism that her famous daughters lack any talent? "They might not be singers or dancers, but they certainly know how to produce a television show," Jenner says. "Whether you want to call it talent or not, they have multiple shows on the air. How many shows do you have?"

Part of their family's appeal, Khloe notes, is that they aren't afraid to be themselves.

"We are a real family. We don't sugarcoat anything. We're not the Brady Bunch, but we always put each other first," Khloe Kardashian, 26, says. "We love each other on camera, we cry on camera. I think people relate to the realness of it."

Kim Kardashian, 30, insists there isn't much to hide anyway. "There's nothing I'm really ashamed of, and I work hard on the show and all my other projects," she tells the mag. "I don't drink or do drugs, so I'm comfortable showing the world what my life is all about."

Despite their individual struggles -- Khloe's pressure to have a baby, Kourtney Kardashian's rocky relationship with Scott Disick, and Kim's struggle with plastic surgery rumors -- Kris insists her family is stronger than ever.

"Our joy in life is that we always have each other," she says. "So I've tried to teach my kids three things: love God, love your family and love yourself."

Khloé: Kris Humphries Must Survive 'Initiation'

Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries seem to be handling their long-distance relationship just fine – but according to Kim's sister, Khloé Kardashian, the couple has another challenge waiting in the wings.

"I don't think Kris knows what he's getting into," Khloé, 26, told PEOPLE the other day, while promoting her new E! reality show Khloé & Lamar. "He hasn't been around all of us yet. He hasn't been to my mom's house with the chaos, so the initiation process will happen this summer – if he lasts. If he can get out of that alive, then he's good to stay."

If Humphries, 26, does survive meeting Kris Jenner and co., it sounds like a carefree summer is in the works.

"Hopefully we'll all get to go on fun trips and hang out," Khloé says of her sister, 30, Humphries and Odom. "That's something that we all look forward to. Kris was out here [for] All-Star weekend, and we hung out. Lamar got to know him and we had fun."

Despite competing on two different NBA teams, Odom and Humphries do not butt heads. But that doesn't mean Odom hasn't voiced his thoughts on Humphries's New Jersey Nets.

"Lamar always teases Kim," Khloé says. "Kim will be like, 'Oh, my god, [the Nets] won their game.' And Lamar will go, 'Kim, remember this day. They're not going to win [the NBA Championship].' She thinks it's funny."
