Posted March 12, 200718 yr 'Wreck' Britney has bulimia 11/03/07 Exclusive From Mike Parker in Los Angeles BRITNEY Spears has confessed to doctors that she has been suffering from the eating disorder bulimia since she was 16. The 25-year-old singer tearfully told rehab staff – already treating her for drug and alcohol abuse – that she “pigs out†on junk food like burgers, sweets, biscuits and ice cream then makes herself vomit to avoid putting on weight. Britney’s nine-year nightmare, revealed in an American magazine, was confirmed by a senior source at the £24,000-a-month Promises centre in Malibu, California. She entered the centre last month after shaving her head at a hair salon. “Doctors are alarmed at the physical state she is in,†said the source. “They confronted her about her desperately unhealthy lifestyle and the truth came pouring out.†Britney said she managed to stop the dangerous habit during her two pregnancies. But as soon as sons Sean Preston and Jayden James were born, she began the desperately unhealthy cycle again in an effort to lose her added baby weight. On top of her alcohol and alleged cocaine use, the bulimia turned her into a “human wreckâ€, according to the source, who added: “When she came here she was shaking and baking. Her whole body was wracked by spasms and she was hot one minute, then freezing cold the next. “Her first week in detox was real hell. She was in a total mess but slowly she’s pulling through.†Dietary specialists at Promises are working with doctors to help Britney conquer the eating disorder – famously suffered by Princess Diana – which was discovered when specialists realised why her medications were not working. The source said: “For the first few days, she’d take her tablets, then go off and eat breakfast or lunch. She was throwing the whole lot up, so, naturally, her medications weren’t working. Now the medical experts know why, her progress should pick up a little speed.†SOURCE Edited March 12, 200718 yr by Luciano

March 12, 200718 yr Author Well I suffered the same thing when I was 13-15 so I REALLY feel for her if it's true :( Don't you think it would've seen the light earlier, though?
March 12, 200718 yr If it is true then i feel really sorry for her :( It's a horrible thing to go through.
March 12, 200718 yr Do you think this is true? Even before her pregnancy she was never too slim, had the perfect body. Also wouldn't her teeth be so rotten by now if she has been at it since she was 16?
March 13, 200718 yr Don't you think it would've seen the light earlier, though? Yes, but I am just saying that if it's true then I can relate.
