She Had To Keep An Eye On Her Weight
You would assume that playing a superheroine is fun, but Lynda Carter had to stick to a rigid schedule. She had to lose weight to fit into the costume for tape, so she followed a strict diet and workout regimen. “I had to stay in shape because when you’re wearing a costume like that you can’t be eating doughnuts. But I was in my twenties, and I had the body for it – which I totally took for granted,” the actress shared with the Daily Express. She has also spoken out against the practice of forcing celebrities to reduce weight. “I’m so sick of seeing these anorexic actresses,” Carter shared with Extra in 2007. “These people are crazy. Any place else in the country besides New York and LA, and they would be in a hospital.” She now advocates for good nutrition and regular exercise. In an interview with Energy Times in 2018, she said: “I eat whatever I want. I just cut down on the portion size. It’s all about portion control, portion control, portion control. I have a better relationship with food now, but I struggle with my weight.”

The Cowgirl Version Of Her Costume
There is an episode called “The Bushwhackers” in the first season of the show that is one of Lynda Carter’s favorites since it features Roy Rogers. Working with the Western star had piqued the lead actress’s interest. She told the Daily Express in 2010 that “Working with Roy was a thrill because I was a huge fan, and I still have the script he signed for me.” However, there is something else you should know about this episode. The main character wore a more modest cowgirl-like costume. We already enjoy the ensemble as a whole, but we’re intrigued as to why they changed it at all. Do you believe it was because the standard attire was inappropriate for horseback riding? There was also a suggestion that Roy Rogers wanted his co-star to be dressed more conservatively than usual. Interesting.
