Victoria Beckham and Anorexia

But not in the way that one might think. She is still determined to tell the public that she is healthy and does not suffer from anorexia.

"I think there's a big difference between someone having an eating disorder and someone who is controlled about what they eat. There's a big difference, and every now and then of course I go out and eat what I like. But I do try to be quite disciplined in the way that I eat," she tells People magazine.

"I eat really healthy, I love Japanese food, lots of fish, any sort of fish, any sort of vegetable, lots of fruit, that kind of thing."

She also defends today’s models because they are so thin, saying they are just naturally skinny.

"All of the girls– I know quite a few models and they actually eat, they're just naturally thin girls. And just because you're thin it doesn't mean you have an eating disorder. What is more of a concern is the age of the girls. Some of the girls on the catwalk are 13 years old and that is more worrying to me than the size of the girl, to be honest."

anorexia is an illness and needs to be addressed. Bones sticking out is not a nice site or a healthy one. Special care and attention needs to be given by professionals to help the people that suffer with this disorder. Help yourself today and seek that help.

Yours,

Ever hopeful

To all you girls out there im 13 and i am very skinny but not anerexic it doesnt look good you dont have to be fat but please just eat more because i would hate to me in your shoes on low calories you must feel so ill just try and eat more and soon you will loook like someone who has never been this way. Just build calories up burn them off and make yourself feel good because when you look into that mirror and you see fat its how u feel so hold your head up high and stare at yourself and think im not fat. Im going to eat better and feel and look better and do it and prove that you can look good with eating well. :) Good luck.

What a joke. It's high time people stopped tolerating this nonsense. Have a decent dinner and shut up about it.
Posh is clearly a woman in anguish. One look confirms. I hope she gets better and has a healthy life.
