In 2016, Dolly Parton admitted to People that she has to watch her diet more than she used to and found a way to do it. "I have to stay on a low-carb diet when I'm on the road because my show clothes are so tight and I can't afford to gain like I used to in the past," she said. "There is nothing more uncomfortable than trying to wear those tight-ass clothes when you're too big for them! I have to work at it cause I'm a little old thing. I'm just 5'1″ and I still have that country girl appetite, so I have to watch it. I just cheat on holidays and special days and then eat the things I really love."
Parton also said she likes to cook up a bunch of her favorite meals at home before embarking on her two-bedroom, two-bathroom tour bus and fill up the kitchen with convenient foods.
Of course, that doesn't mean that Parton doesn't indulge at times and she even makes sure to use lots of cream when she pours herself that morning cup of Folgers ambition, according to The Wall Street Journal.
