Hilary Duff Said: ‘After the wedding is over, I’m going to eat 16,000 calories!’
August 23, 2010 in Celebrity Quotes, Hilary Duff by Versus

The title sounds… a bit scary! What determined Hilary to say this before her wedding? Let’s see the details from OK! Magazine:
“I don’t care about being super thin; I’m 5 feet 2 inches, so if I eat pasta, the next day you can tell! I enjoy having a great dinner with friends or with Mike, so I’m usually not that strict. But when I am, I can see a really big difference, which I do now.”
All that hard work showed in Hilary’s requests for the wedding menu — she wanted junk food!
“I said to my sister, ‘After the wedding is over, I’m going to eat 16,000 calories!’ ” Hilary confessed to OK!.
Share your thoughts!









she was working out a lot before the wedding. and her weight has fluctuated so much throughout the years.
but i hope she’s just REALLY exaggerating…
I really do not like her arms, they are just so noticeably bigger than the rest of her..
i don’t understand this concept of depriving yourself just to look really skinny for one day or one event. If you maintain a healthy lifestyle year round by eating round and exercising regularly you don’t need to worry about dieting ever, and it’s so much healthier for your body than this cycle of depriving and over indulging.
i meant eating right, not round
She doesn’t look to me like someone who excessivly restricts food intake anyway
I wouldn’t say she looked super thin, looks perfectly fine to me
she doesn’t have to look it, she just admitted it in this quote! looks can be very deceiving.
I agree with you so much! I understand that it’s difficult to always maintain a healthy lifestyle. And sometimes if you have a sweet tooth you can eat more snacks than you should once in a while. But if you have a generally healthy lifestyle and a good exercise regime that shouldn’t matter. This feast/ famine mentality is harmful to your body as well as it’s not healthy to constantly fluctuate in weight.
I don’t think she had an unhealthy life style but she probably wanted to see some results fast, she didn’t wanted to postpone the wedding a year. It seems she was dieting, and now she just wanted to go back to normal, so I don’t see any problem, it was obviously a joke
I agree monkey, I think she was more joking about being able to indulge for the first time in awhile.
I totally agree with you. There is no need for dieting if you exercise a little every day and eat normal sized portions!
Diets will lower your weight but as soon as you eat normally again your weight will go right up again!
more like, even if you were healthy year round, some people still feel the need to deprive themselves before a big event to fit into an especially clingy dress
Haha, I don’t blame her
I would definitely want to hit up a tub of Ben & Jerry’s after working so hard to get in shape for my wedding. Obviously she’s joking about the 16,000 calories, but I’m sure if I was on a really restrictive diet for a special occasion I would be thinking about pigging out a little bit afterwards. She seems to have a good mindset when it comes to food though, I know she gets a total slating for being “fat” from some people, but in reality I think she’s just a normal sized girl- we see her working out, and clearly she enjoys food, and has probably got a healthy balance.
And aaaaah I’m 5ft2″ too- I envy my 5ft10″ friends who seem to be able to eat anything, but then I have 4ft11″ friends who can eat anything too :S
It’s much better than the
“Food isn’t your friend”
mindset
I wouldnt envy a girl who is 5’10. I wouldnt want to be “that” tall. My friend is 5’11 and she always feels akward.
reeeaaallllyyyy??? i’m the short one in my fam. everyone is taller than 5’10 including my sister.
it kinda sucks being the short one. (mind you i’m not short by everyday standards i’m 5’7 so that’s not tooo bad).
I love being tall. I’m 5″11 (34d-24-39), and happy to wear 5″ inch heels when I go out. As do my friends who are generally between 5″8 and 5″11. Being tall is striking, powerful and I’m constantly amused by people asking if you’re a model. I do look minuscule next to my boyfriend though who is 6″7
Wow! I’m sure you guys turn heads when out in public!
I agree 5’7 – 5’8 would be the tallest I’d want to be (i’m almost 5’5). I wouldn’t want to be 5’10 tho – its hard to find guys who are taller than you. I know a lot of beautiful tall woman, but I also know a lot of beautiful short woman. My friend Jess does complain about her height constantly to me though – so I think it really bugs her to be that tall.
I love being tall also, it has opened doors for me, and in everyday life, like you say, it is very striking, people, especially guys, always seem to notice tall girls. Its one of those things, along with symmetry, good teeth etc, that people will always find attractive as it “represents good genes” (we all know these things can be faked, but its subconscious I guess). As for the comment someone made about tall women “lumbering” – having a graceful walk is nothing to do with height. I know plenty of short women that plod or march or have burly walks, its their personality not their height :S. Tall is the commonly-held ideal. I have small breasts but Im not about to deny that big breasts are the commonly-held ideal just because I lack that trait.
I agree that being tall is something that is always considered attractive and impressive but as an ideal I think a height range of 5″7-5″8 is considered so for women. The most celebrated hourglasses (another ideal for women) such as Kelly Brook, Christina Hendricks, Sophia Loren and Raquel Welch are around this height.
I think being 5″10+ is something striking in women as it is associated with being modelesque and above average.
I co-sign with your attitude. I acknowledge that there are certain ideals in the world but I take them at face value.
You can all relax, I did not say “every tall woman” so put down the defenses *rolls eyes*
I agree with you! I’m 6 feet tall and I don’t lumber. I also love wearing heels and actually, almost all of my male friends are taller than me, even if I wear high heels. But I still love being the tallest of all the women, because it really does make you stand out.
Wow all your male friends are taller than you even in heels?! Where are you from? In Canada almost all the guys I know are less than 6 feet. Mostly around 5’9-5’11. My ex was 6’5 and he was the tallest guy in our school!!!
I’m 5’2 and don’t put on weight easily at all. Also, i certainly do not want to be 5’10+, i love being little. Very tall women sometimes look like they lumber rather than walk and it’s not very appealing (and no i’m not suggesting every tall woman is like that,j ust many from what i’ve seen). My boyfriend is 6’1 and loves my height and I have many people tell me they wish they had my body so I’m very happy with what I got and that’s the way it should be, regardless
If she would really eat 16.000 kcal on one day I’d buy her a vanilla sunday with a cocktail cherry and extra whipped cream on top of all the other junk food she would need to eat. Because quite frankly … that is a lot !
But of course I get what she’s trying to say
Go Hilary and I hope her marriage will last a long time.
i still dont even think she’s THAT much skinnier than usual..
i agree, but there is still a noticable loss. i’m GLAD she doesn’t look completely different just for her wedding. i just hope she’ll soon find a healthy weight that she can maintain.
why not eating healthing and have a cheat meal (or cheat day) every week like most people who watch their weight ? i guess that would be too easy…
well im sure she doesnt mean binge every day….maybe just relax her eating habits a bit….and she has lost some its just her body type loses weight from her most fatty areas last….the only way she would have skinny arms is if she started starving herself again….(presumably that’s what she did when she was the size of a stick)
I think she’s just joking, I have this magazine becuase I love Hilary Duff (she’s one the classiest actresses of her age group there is and her new movies “What Goes Up” and According o Gretta” we’re fantastic from her old Disney flicks). She said that she probably won’t stay this small as she is right now and that she’s fine with it becuase she doesn’t strive to be super skinny and then she went on to say what she did as posted. I think she just ate really clean and worked out to look good for her big day and means that she’s going to go back to being more relaxed with herself. Which I think is great and such a healthy mindset! Years ago she got way too thin and I’m glad she’s over all that.
Who much does she weight right now????
I like a lot the way she look in this weingt
NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
STAY JUST AT THIS WEIGHT NO MORE NO LESS!
Blimey, have we all lost our sense of humour? So many serious comments …
She’s just joking! Kind of like when I used to say ‘my mum’s going to kill me!’ whenever I did something troublesome. I’m not a corpse yet!
haha
I just think she looks good at this weight but hey a couple of blowouts won’t do her harm
she is not being literal. it was obvious she put a lot of effort in slimming down and toning up for her wedding. and she didn’t do anything drastic either — this is actually the perfect weight for her.
I just don’t get why she said she doesn’t care about being skinny then admitted she’s practically starving for her wedding.
no no no no no hilary!!! she looks so pretty right now
she doesn’t need to starve herself or deprive herself all the time but i hope she was exxagerating
I totally believe she’s been pigging out since her wedding. She didn’t lose thaaaat much to begin with, but have you seen those pics of her in a green dress at some event (look for the link on this site)? That’s the thinnest she’s been in years and that was a couple of days before her wedding.
And then, the first pic I saw of her post-wedding was her returning from her honeymoon and getting out of a helicopter, and she looked as if she’d gained all the weight back….
She looks average/curvy. Not like she is starving herself… or at least it doesnt look that way – which is good. Her fiance doesnt look very tall next to her in that photo.
Her husband is kinda fat.She can eats whatever.He is not David Beckham,hottie with a great body.
it’s not hockey season right now, those guys have to pack on pounds, they burn up to 1000 calories during a game (3-4 nights per week, not including playoffs). that and hockey players aren’t scrawny, it’s a full-contact sport
lol, she’s obviously kidding. It’s like when you say you could eat a horse.
exactly! I don’t know why everyone gets so up and arms about comments like these; it’s obviously an off-the-cuff remark not meant to be taken seriously.
up in arms**. xDD
That’s what I said previously as well!
I can understand wanting to be thinner for a wedding. Everyone wants to rock that wedding dress, even if it is just for one day. And anyone who wants to slim down before that big day…I say, all the power to them. Everyone should feel good and confident when they’re walking down the isle.
Besides, I highly doubt she will balloon after the wedding. She will probably gain 10 pounds, which isn’t really going crazy and eating unhealthy. I think right now she’s strict, and she will go to a healthy and balanced diet after the wedding…causing a teeny bit of weight gain.
Her fiance must be really short for a guy, he doesn’t look much taller than she is.
Ya that’s what I was thinking… I know Hilary is a shrimp. She even said so herself! LOL
he’s 5’10”
i really hope he’s good to her since every nhl fan knows the reason he left the oilers for the sens is because he slept with a teammates’ wife, that was before he met hilary so hopefully, he’s changed.
You eat a plate of pasta and the next day you can tell you’re heavier because of that? That’s so stupid…… The biggest BS I’ve ever heard.
that isn’t BS…it happens to me as well…and that is why i dont eat carbs.
everyone is different.
Are you serious????!!!! The human body is a perfect machine and carbs are burnt by our muscles and vital organs to produce energy, just like an engine needs fuel.
Our body burns energy just by performing its basic funtioning! It’s impossible to stock up a plate of pasta overnight, unless the plate is the size of a coffee table and topped with very greasy sauce and cheese.
I personally have carbs multiple times a day, and am super-fit. I could not live without that energy intake.
my sister swears she can gain weight from just one carb-heavy meal, she eats a very restrictive diet, low in carbs, she says that even looking at bread makes her gain weight. Im not sure if its maybe just bloating, perhaps caused by some intolerance or something, but certainly some people do feel the “carb bloat”, whether its real weight gain or just water weight I dont know.
I wouldn’t call it weight gain. But I do that, doesn’t have to be carb-heavy either. My mom calls it “puppy belly” your belly just kinda expands to accomodate your food, a couple hours later it’s gone. you’ve maybe put on a pound from the food, but your pants feel tighter, that kind of thing.
So lame. I have no idea why girls want to be thin ONLY for a wedding. Thin is a lifestyle not a one day thing. It is something you work for to look and feel better. She is very chunky anyways so she eats 16000 now. I think she is a fat slob.
I agree that slim is better overall (healthy slim – with some fats). I don’t think she is a fat slob though (as you put it) – I think someone like Nikki Blonsky might be a little closer to your “fat slob” comment than hilary duff is.
ITA with u. Not a fat slob at all.
She’s not chunky in any way. And calling her a fat slob when she clearly isn’t, only makes you sound like an idiot. Congratulations.
I think she looks much better than the last time I saw her. I wouldn;t want her body. I would take her diamond ring though. lol
I don’t understand ppl with the feast/famine mentality. Why on Earth would you want to spend so much time and effort for something and then undo it the next second? If I try to lose weight, ever, I have a difficult time increasing my intake again to enjoy the cheesecke or whatever (in moderation)after.
She looks pretty no matter what she does, she has gorgeous face and curvy body, with strong shapely legs. The height comment is right, I am 5’2″ as well and it’s easier to gain and lose weight, i wish i was 5’5″-5’7″…
Hey I think that’s a really off thing to say, please contain yourself, it’s a public forum. Not everyone can spot-reduce, particularly arms
I’d rather arms with tone than skinny arms..I’d even rather tuckshop lady arms over skinny arms, ya know why? They can actually do things! skinny as arms like hilary swank – can she even help carry her TV into her house when she moves? No. Little bloody barbie doll, only there to look at.
Girls are self-sufficient human beings not dolls.
