Talking to People magazine, Gunn explained that while filming the show, she was on medication that caused her to gain weight, and that she's simply back to her old, fitter self.
“They gave me cortisone and I puffed up and gained weight. Now I'm better, thank God.” Though she declined to disclose further details as to what she suffered from, the now healthy actress added, “I'm doing fine, thankfully. I'm feeling really good.”
Anna's condition caused her to look heavier in Breaking Bad, the steroid injections caused her swelling and weight gain. The actress who plays Skyler White in the series did not feel comfortable at first revealing what she was suffering from for fear of being judged.
I am always kind to celebrities.) Gunn looked radiant at the Emmys on Sunday, where she explained to reporters the reason for her altered appearance.”I was actually ill while I was filming the show and it affected my weight,” she told People. “They gave me cortisone and I puffed up and gained weight.
She is pregnant with “Holly", the daughter they eventually have in the show.
In Breaking Bad season 5, Skyler fell into a deep depression when she realized how fearful she was of her husband. Her terror stemmed from the death of Gus Fring (Giancarlo Esposito) at the hands of Walt, which proved the great lengths Walt went with his growing drug empire.
Skyler starts out blue, but turns dark once she starts to figure out Walt's secret. Her timeline turns deep blue, almost purple, as her flirtation with Ted grows, and then it turns green once she discovers Walt's stash of money.
Skyler's blue represents loyalty and peace, while Schrader's red represents violence and anger. Partners who are loyal to Walter White receive money (represented by green, a mixture of blue and yellow), while those who oppose him are met with violence (represented by orange, a mixture of red and yellow).
In Breaking Bad, Purple is primarily worn by Marie and it is used to symbolize protection, self-deception, and complete lack of involvement in the meth trade. Marie often wears the color purple to show her self-deception. Throughout the show he often tries to convince herself that she is somebody that she isn't.
Why, yes! That's exactly what it was: the bracelet Skyler White wears in Breaking Bad. Actually, she wears two, stacked. Skyler White wearing her bracelets like a shield against her husband, Walter White, as he morphs from nerdy chemistry teacher into treacherous drug kingpin on Breaking Bad.

Weight changes — Lupus can sometimes cause weight loss or weight gain. Weight loss may be unintentional and due to decreased appetite or problems with the digestive system (see 'Digestive system' below). It can also be a side effect of some medications used to treat lupus.
Skylar White, or Anna Gunn if you may, was actually suffering from her illness which lead to the apparent weight gain. It was not for any other role or pregnancy. In her own words, "I was actually ill while I was filming the show and it affected my weight. They gave me cortisone and I puffed up and gained weight.
"They gave me cortisone and I puffed up and gained weight," she added. "Now I'm better, thank God." Better than ever, actually. Gunn picked up a much-deserved trophy for Outstanding Supporting Actress for her role as Skyler White at the event -- and looked gorgeous in a Romona Keveza gown.
In the series finale, Skyler is shown living in a government safehouse, working as a taxi dispatcher under her maiden name, and serving as the focus of a criminal investigation for her role in Walt's drug empire.
Skyler arrives at the Four Corners Monument with Holly. She flips a coin at the center of the monument and it lands in Colorado. Disappointed, she flips it again, and again it lands in Colorado. After a moment of hesitation, Skyler drags the coin back into New Mexico with her foot.
Todd keeps the tarantula, and it reappears later in the season. As a fan on Quora points out, the tarantula serves first as a visual nod to Todd's psychopathic tendencies and later, becomes a living reminder that the characters can't escape their pasts.
Chemical toilets
Until he manages to fall into a chemical toilet, that is. The bright blue liquid that everyone remarks upon is probably Anotec blue, a deodorising additive commonly used in portable units.
However, these yellow shirts do not only help illustrate Gus's perfectionist attitude. They also reflect his paranoia. In color theory, yellow is associated with deceit and betrayal, something that Gus constantly fears.
Throughout the series, Marie is almost always shown wearing the color purple, which creator Vince Gilligan explained is symbolic of her being misled; for example, Walt and Skyler were deluding Marie about who was behind the drug business.
Think about what Hank Schrader (Dean Norris) wears throughout much of the first season. He can often be found wearing orange shirts, and this is due to the fact that he's on the trail of Heisenberg, getting closer to discovering the kingpin's true identity with each episode.
Walter White may be fictional. But the $80 million profit he turned by selling meth in less than a year is a very realistic sum for a true-life drug kingpin. It's not until the last season of Breaking Bad that viewers learn just how much cash their favorite meth-making anti-hero has accumulated by cooking crank.
Gus Fring tipped Hank off. Even though he did send the brothers to attack Hank in the first place, he warned Hank so that he would be aware of what's going on and proceed to kill them, thus wrapping up a loose end.
Most likely, I think, is that the writers of the show didn't give Hank and Marie kids because it would be an unnecessary distraction from the main plots and story lines of the series. In short, they would get in the way.
When Jesse disconnects the main power to the lab, Walt lets him back in so they can work together. Jesse gets some flypaper which they hang around the lab, as well as some sleeping pills that he secretly puts into Walt's coffee.
