Actress Scarlett Pomers suffered from anorexia in 2005. Her body weight dropped to a shocking 73 pounds. She was barely eating, and exercising.
Among the many symptoms of being anorexic are distorted body image and swelling of arms or legs. This could be the main reason why many people have noticed that there's something wrong when the actress walks.
On October 10, 2005, Pomers finally admitted she was far from fine. She moved into a residential rehab center and, after two months, started seeing an outpatient therapist for five hours daily, as reported by People Magazine.
And... with the continued guidance of a therapist, the actress has come to accept that it's okay to satisfy her body's cravings and has learned to work out in a healthy way as a devoted student of Kundalini yoga.
In the news, a former anorexic has beaten her demons and the bullies, to conquer her illness and become a beauty queen. Read her story at the Daily Mail.
