Thank you Google!
As a teenager, Marie Osmond was obsessed with her weight.
She considered her girdle to be her most prized possession.
This was revealed in her memoir, "Might as Well Laugh About it Now"

From the link below:
"Many of the stories are nostalgic recollections of growing up — arguments about pierced ears, baking bread with her mother, how as a self-conscious prepubescent her most prized possession was a girdle."
