Lindsay’s dangerous battle with eating disorders
Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007
Speaking very candidly about an incident in 2004, Lindsay has spoken out about her tough battle against anorexia and bulimia.
“I felt so sick. I lay down on the bed and started getting these shooting pains. I was screaming, throwing things, because the pains were so intense in my head,” She tells News of the World. “I ended up in hospital. My liver was swollen and I had a kidney infection and my white blood cells were accelerated. I was really, really white, like a ghost, and my legs were so numb from not walking. My body did not have enough strength to take a shower.”
“I was making myself sick. Sometimes being that thin doesn’t look healthy. I kind of didn’t realise that.
“My arms were disgusting. I had no arms. I had people sit me down and say, ‘You’re going to die if you don’t take care of yourself.’”
According to a report by Entertainment Wise, Lindsay is slowly recovering from her eating disorders. And it seems her body is looking much healthier than it did a few years ago – just ask her boyfriend Calum Best who was bowled over by her body and says she’s got curves in all the right places.
