After suffering from eating disorders for years, singer and actor Demi Lovato posed triumphantly in the nude for a photo shoot late last year. Namrata D’souza finds the lessons in her story to help you love your body, just the way it is.
ASK FOR HELP
Eating disorders such as bulimia and anorexia have wrecked many lives, and celebrities are no exception. Demi Lovato, whose millions of fans call themselves Lovatics, dealt with body image issues and eating disorders from the age of four. This caused her to stop eating and drastically lose a lot of weight by the time she turned 12, and even that didn’t feel like it was enough. “It was an obsession of the mind,” she states in her documentary, Stay Strong. She went to rehab for the condition and has since emerged stronger and happier, speaking up against the misconceptions related to eating disorders and mental illness on Twitter.
