Hillary Duff had an eating disorder

July 13, 2007

At one time, the chubby 15 year old Hillary Duff came across a magazine spread that criticized her weight and she began to obsess about her extra pounds. So she took matters into her own hands and basically starved and exercised herself until she became the new Hollywood standard of ultra-thin.

As quoted from US Weekly: When the singer/actress was 15, she came across a press report criticizing her for her weight. “It made me obsessed,” she [says] of the story that drove her into a hard-core diet and exercise binge. “I would beat myself up if I had some fat.” But when the 5-foot-2 star’s weight plummeted to around 100 pounds in 2005 (down from 130 in 2003), her sister Haylie, 22, finally intervened.

Duh, people are slow at reporting things that everyone already knows. “You mean Hillary Duff had an eating disorder because she still had some baby fat??? I thought she lost that weight because she was still growing and took up yoga!”
