'Dance Moms' Abby Lee Miller news: Coach claims show kept her overweight

Abby Lee Miller once again spoke up against the producers of "Dance Moms," the show she was previously part of. This time, she accused them of keeping her from following a healthier lifestyle.

In an exclusive interview with ET, the dance coach revealed that she once tried to be vegan. However, the show's producers did not support this endeavor.

She said, "I try to be vegan... I really, really try. I don't eat any red meat and the whole animal thing really upsets me so I've tried. But even on the TV show, they would laugh in my face."

She continued, "They wouldn't care if I was trying to be vegan. They wouldn't get a special vegan meal or anything. They just laughed and would hand me a hoagie sandwich or Italian sub from somewhere."

According to her, it was this sort of behavior that dissuaded her from returning to the show. She resigned from "Dance Moms" in March, accusing the producers of taking credit for her creative ideas. However, she said that she is open to joining a show in another network. She admitted that she has attended "some meetings" with network executives to have her on board.

Miller recently underwent a gastric sleeve surgery, mere weeks before she is due to get her sentencing, which may include spending up to two years in jail, for her bankruptcy fraud case. According to People, the operation entailed having 80 percent of her stomach removed. She said she hated what she looked like and wanted to improve her appearance. She admitted that this was her way of seeking revenge after the way she was treated. However, on the day of her surgery, she admitted that she was scared and nervous about it.

At the time, she said, "There's nobody freaking out if something happens to me."
