Skinny VS Curvy

“I exercise and eat well. I do it so I can indulge every now and then. I can have half a bottle of wine and not sit around thinking, oh my God, all those calories! However, when you’re working and getting up at 4am to train for three hours every day, drinking isn’t what you necessarily want to do. The discipline it takes to keep to that schedule sucks.”

… says Scarlett.

On how her eating disorder manifested:

My Trainer set my calorie intake for optimum weight loss at 1,400 calories a day. Without telling her, I reset it to 1,000. Within weeks, my weight fell from 130lb (9st 4lb) to 120lb (8st 8lb), then 115lb (8st 3lb). But I still saw bulging thighs in the mirror. I dropped to 800 calories a day and fine-tuned my work-out. Every morning I ran for 45 minutes on the treadmill. I followed that with exactly 105 sit-ups – I wanted to do 100, but the five extra sit-ups allowed for some sloppy ones. If I had time, I would also do leg lifts: 105 with each leg.

Around my treadmill at home I taped cards down the length of the wall: 111,110, 109, 108, 107, 106, 105. Each time I lost a pound I removed the relevant card. It was getting more difficult to lose weight as I got thinner, so I needed all the motivation I could muster.

Whiteny Port has something quite sad to share:

“Working in Hollywood, there’s just a constant pressure to look your best. For all of us who are on TV, it’s natural to be like, “I have to stare at myself all the time, I want to look the best I can. It’s hard to have that balance of wanting to look good but stay healthy. It’s push/pull.”

“For me, eating 1,000 calories a day is as bad as its ever gotten, which isn’t healthy.”

… says Whitney in the  Australian edition of OK magazine.

Joan Collins recently told us that in her opinion, ‘people eat way too much’ – today, the veteran star is back with another quote:

“What dismays me… is the emphasis now on women who are excessively thin, both in magazines and on TV. I think that is terrifying.

“I know a producer who, when there were two actresses up for the same role, and one was a little heavier about the hips, said, ‘No, she’s too fat’ even though she was much better for the part.

“It’s impossible, if you’re over 25 or 30, trying to get down to be extremely thin. I still remember the pain of slimming down for a film when I was in my 40s, when I had to subsist on a meagre 850 calories a day. I could still do it; a couple of boiled eggs, a tablespoon of tuna, quite a lot of lettuce and a tomato. Anyone can do it but why should they? Life is too short and food is too good.”

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!.
