In her new book, Spelling It Like It Is, the actress says her publicist told her not to be truthful about her strict dieting regime after the birth of her fourth child Finn Davey in August 2012.
Spelling told Us Weekly in April that she lost 45 pounds (20kgs) since Finn was born and had shed the kilos "safely" - but the reality was very different.
"For several months, I couldn't really exercise," she said, because of the emergency surgery she underwent when the stitches from her caesarean section burst open.
"There were a couple of reasons. First, there was some risk that my scar would open up again. I was terrified of that.
"Second, I really don't exercise much, period. So I took my weight the old-fashioned way. I like to call it the 'Just Keep Your F***ing Mouth Shut and Eat Air diet'. It's all the rage."
However, when Tori took part in a bikini shoot with Us Weekly magazine, she told them she lost weight through swimming.
"I'll swim until I'm sore or play Marco Polo with the kids instead," she was quoted as saying in the mag. "I also started going on the elliptical and doing modified MMA. Besides my walks, I exercise three times a week for about an hour each time.
"I feel like I took off the weight safely, and I'm totally happy here."

But the reality was very different, with Spelling revealing in her book: "My publicist had given me clear instructions about what to say about my weight loss.
"Women didn't want to know that I had lost weight through dieting, not exercising... So I said that I swam [even though] I can't do much more than a doggy paddle."
Spelling further explained that she shed the weight through "nibbling rice cakes" and "eating soup and dinners that looked like they belonged in some health magazine.
"With my sedentary lifestyle, it was the only way and it worked," she says. "My clothes were starting to fit again."
