Hilary Duff Admits to Eating Disorder


Hilary Duff recently

Hilary Duff graced the cover of Us Weekly’s first annual swimsuit issue. In the interview, she talks about how she became obsessed over her weight, developing an eating disorder, and how she recovered and found a balance.
“It made me obsessed,” she tells Us 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.
“She said, ‘Why are you being so strict with yourself?' It was like an awakening,” says Duff, who eased up on her rigorous program.
“I don’t want to be so skinny that people are like, Oh my god, she’s lost a lot of weight.”
Now, at 19, Duff tells Us that she’s content at 109 pounds. "As you get older, you just get more comfortable in your own skin."
Instead of counting fat grams or calories, she relies on a hearty helping of common sense: lots of greens, lean protein and fresh fruit.
I don't know where US Weekly got their facts from, but Hilary Duff looks more to be 5-foot-4 instead of 5-foot-2 and she looks heavier than 109 pounds based on her recent picture. I would guess shes's at least 120. What do you think?
