Kim Kardashian posted an Instagram Story on August 3, unprompted, to brag about her bone density. ViaVanity FairKardashian included images of her bone scan alongside the words. “YOU HEAR THAT?!?!!! MY BONES ARE STRONGER THAN 93-97% OF PEOPLE.” Umm.. K?The scan revealed that Kardashian had lost an impressive amount of body weight since May 2021. It dropped from 25% to 18.8% bodyfat.
