Kim, 41, is once again facing backlash over her weight loss journey ahead of the 2021 Met Gala.
She documented her intense workouts and diet, which included doing pilates, cardio, wearing a sweatsuit, cutting out sugar, and more, on the latest episode of The Kardashians.
The SKKN mogul said on the Hulu show: "I have about three weeks to fit into this dress. I am going to do every last thing that I can to try to make this happen.
"It’s gonna be really hard and I’m gonna have to eat so clean and so perfect and cut out sugar which is so hard for me and please let me try it on again. I’m not going to take no for an answer."

In a preview for an upcoming episode of the show, Kim arrived at the moment of truth.
"I flew all the way to Florida to try on the Marilyn dress. They weren’t even gonna let me try it on until Kris Jenner called," she said in the teaser.
"I have honestly been working my ass off. I will honestly be crushed if this doesn’t pay off."
Fans, however, were less intrigued by her diet and fitness regimen and more worried.

FAN FEAR
One wrote on Reddit: "Why'd kim go on an insane diet and exercise regimen to get ultra skinny when she could've just worn something else.
"She has access to the best designers in the world, have some perspective girl."
"The look in@KimKardashian’s eyes! You can tell she isn’t joking," another tweeted.
A third added: "We gotta give to Kim, she said I’m wearing this dress to the MET and she did everything possible to achieve it…"
Someone else wrote: "I honestly have no idea why they don’t have backup outfits/ideas planned for the Met."
A fourth fan tweeted: "go back to your more curvy body again."
SLIM KIM
Ultimately, Kim did wind up wearing Marilyn's dress, which created quite a stir for a number of reasons.
Much of the backlash had to do with the mom of four's alarming diet confession.
She revealed on the red carpet that she went to extreme measures to lose 16 lbs. ahead of the big day, leading to criticism from fans.
Kim hasn't stopped losing weight, however, and fans have taken notice.
Recently, she stepped out wearing a massive trench coat that she appeared to be drowning in.
She covered up as she arrived at the private members club Zero Bond earlier this week.
The SKIMS founder was joined by a friend for her night out in the Big Apple.
Kim's outing comes after The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed that she wants to lose even more weight after months of major weight loss.
A source said the TV star "loves how skinny she is" and plans to drop two more pounds so she can be under her goal weight.
The insider said that Kim "does not want to put on weight as she thinks she has never looked better than now.
"She loves how skinny she is and wants to stay this way. She is saying she plans on losing another two pounds because then she's under her ideal weight and it won't matter if she fluctuates a little."
KIM'S CONFESSION
Kim caught up with at the Met Gala, opening up to the magazine about the lengths she had to go to in order to fit into the gown.
Kim shared: "I had this idea to try it on and then they came with armed guards and gloves.";
Initially, the dress didn't fit the reality star's signature curves, but that didn't stop her from wearing it.
She told the magazine: "I tried it on and it didn't fit me. I said, 'Give me three weeks.'
"I had to lose 16 pounds down today."
Kim continued: "It was such a challenge. It was like a [movie] role. I was determined to fit [into] it. I haven't had carbs or sugar in about three weeks.
"We're having pizza and doughnut party back at the hotel [after the Met Gala]."
