Dear Kim Kardashian fans, having a flat stomach will not help you to climb the ladder of success in life. The reality star was recently slammed for promoting appetite-suppressing lollipops on her social media accounts.

On Tuesday, the 37-year-old Keeping Up With the Kardashians star posted a photo of her sucking a red lollipop, which is said to have helped in curbing food cravings. She captioned the picture, saying: "You guys... @flattummyco just dropped a new product. They're Appetite Suppressant Lollipops and they're literally unreal."

Immediately the advert drew a lot of flak as The Good Place's Jameela Jamil described Kardashian-West as a "terrible and toxic influence on young girls." Jamil, who is the founder of the I Weigh social media campaign, is known for encouraging men and women to focus on achievements other than looks and weight.
