Carrie Underwood is positive that her fiance, Mike Fisher, would still love her if she weighed 800 pounds. “Mike would love me if I weighed 800 pounds. I’m always trying to be my best — not just to look my best, but to feel my best, too. I’m on tour right now, so I have to keep myself healthy and take care of myself. It will be more of that.”
