"Kelly Osbourne has had her share of ups and downs in the health department over the past few years, but the E! Fashion Police co-host says she&amp;apos;s now at a point where she&amp;apos;s more &amp;quot;secure and content&amp;quot; than she&amp;apos;s ever been before.\r\nThe 28-year-old, who suffered from a frightening seizure while on-set for the show on March 7, tells the May issue of Self magazine that the startling health scare really woke her up to being grateful for where she&amp;apos;s at now, imperfections and all.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I never want to take my good health for granted,&amp;quot; Osbourne told the magazine. &amp;quot;The seizure was 60 seconds, but those 60 seconds will change my life for the better forever. I&amp;apos;ve worked hard to get in shape, and I&amp;apos;m going to continue. Not because being &amp;apos;skinny&amp;apos; is important, but because I want to feel good.&amp;quot;\r\nOsbourne stuns on the cover of the publication in a bright blue-and-pink patterned bikini that shows off her taut abs (and signature tattoos!). In the image, the lavender-haired reality star hoists a bunch of hula hoops over her head, one of Osbourne&amp;apos;s preferred ways to work out.\r\n\r\nThe spunky TV personality has lost 70 pounds since 2009, but explains that it took a lot of &amp;quot;baby steps&amp;quot; to get to where she is now -- both physically and mentally.\r\n&amp;quot;If you jump in the deep end, you&amp;apos;re probably going to drown because you&amp;apos;re just not going to like it,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;It starts by realizing you don&amp;apos;t have to walk on a treadmill to work out. You can hike, kayak or say, &amp;apos;Okay, I&amp;apos;m going to go out with my friends and not drink, and dance my ass off, and that&amp;apos;s the same as working out.&amp;apos; Like, people don&amp;apos;t realize that you just have to be physical, that&amp;apos;s it.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nOsbourne adds that something that helps her to maintain her healthy body image now is to make sure that she&amp;apos;s focusing more on herself and less on other Hollywood stars.\r\n&amp;quot;I don&amp;apos;t compare myself to anybody else. It&amp;apos;s okay to have a healthy envy and look up to somebody and set goals, but you have to realize that you&amp;apos;re never going to be exactly that person,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;Wishing you were Angelina Jolie or J.Lo isn&amp;apos;t going to change the fact that you&amp;apos;re not. Why not start working with what you do have instead of what you don&amp;apos;t?&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
