Glamour model suffered for 12 months
Sunday, 26 July 2009
Chantelle Houghton has opened up about her battle with bulimia.
The glamour model once shrunk to a size 6 by depriving herself of food and drinking over 12 litres of water a day.
‘I was making myself sick a lot,’ says Chantelle, 25. ‘I was obsessed from the minute I woke up in the morning until the minute I went to bed.
‘I was constantly watching what I was eating. Food was always on my mind, all the time. I was so skinny back then, my periods even stopped for a whole year.’
Fortunately, Chantelle has learned to deal with her illness and is now a healthy size 10.
‘It’s a constant battle with my weight, and I’ll always have an issue with it,’ she says. ‘I don’t think anyone ever is [happy with their body], but I’m the happiest I’ve been in a long time.’
