Tyra Banks shows off a slimmer figure in a recent photo shoot in New York City. Two years ago she got fed up and told her weight critics to  "kiss my fat ass" after a not so eye appealing photo of her in a swimsuit went viral over the internet. Tyra Banks shows off slimmer figure at 2009 daytime emmy awardsOn Monday she proudly  flaunted a slimmer and more slender Tyra figure. She has reportedly gone from a size 14  to a size 8.

Tyra in a sitdown with Larry King said "When I told the world to kiss my fat ass, I remained that size for two years. I maintained it with my ice cream and my salad with ranch dressing and croutons and bacon bits."

She said she got the motivation to lose the weight from a weight loss challenge with her "America's Next Top Model" staff members. She told King, "We were sitting around a table and kind of trash talking," ... "And decided to do this challenge because we all love food. I trash talked so much where I had to win -- and I did."

Tyra is trying to serve as an example also since achieving this weight loss, since becoming an advocate for natural beauty and  revealing her real hair on the season premiere of "The Tyra Banks Show" last month. She is also incorporating different types of beauty on this season of "Top Model" by featuring contestants under the modeling minimum height of 5'7".  A new Tyra Banks has emerged to empower more women. She's fiercer and rocking less extensions and less weight.
